Lithium-ion batteries (LiBs), which charge and discharge by moving lithium ions between two electrodes known as the cathode and anode, remain the most widely used rechargeable batteries worldwide. Over the past decades, however, ...
Computer Sciences
While many fear artificial intelligence will replace humans, using AI to take over some human roles has benefits. Companies can use the technology to conduct surveys and polls, while behavioral scientists can run experiments ...
Computer Sciences
Large language models (LLMs), the artificial intelligence systems underpinning the functioning of ChatGPT, Gemini and other similar conversational agents, are now widely used worldwide. In addition to processing, interpreting ...
Computer Sciences
Computer scientists worldwide have been developing a wide range of artificial intelligence (AI) systems. Some of these systems rely on an individual AI agent, while others consist of multiple interacting agents that exchange ...
Hi Tech & Innovation
There may soon be a new kind of artificial intelligence in town, one that uses a novel approach to thinking that could save massive amounts of computing power and money.
Robotics
Cats, dogs, wolves and other agile four-legged animals can easily jump and squeeze through tight spaces while moving at high speed. Reproducing similar agile motions and skills in quadrupedal robots has so far proved challenging.
Robotics
Researchers from North Carolina State University have created teardrop-shaped soft robots that leap upward or forward when exposed to infrared light—and will keep jumping as long as the light is present. The work demonstrates ...
