Princeton researchers have created an artificial intelligence (AI) tool to predict the behavior of crystalline materials, a key step in advancing technologies such as batteries and semiconductors. Although computer simulations are commonly used in crystal design, the new method relies on a large language model, similar to those that power text generators like ChatGPT.

While working as a software development project manager in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Bianca Trinkenreich was always one of few women in the room—and she often wondered why. When she came to NAU as a Ph.D. student, she had the opportunity to search for answers.

The European Union is negotiating an Artificial Intelligence Act, the world's first comprehensive law that aims to regulate artificial intelligence (AI) based on the risk it poses to individuals, society and the environment.

The World Economic Forum's Global Risks Report 2024 has issued a stark warning: misinformation and disinformation, primarily driven by deepfakes, are ranked as the most severe global short-term risks the world faces in the next two years.

A 1,907-foot tall building could soon be erected as the tallest skyscraper in the United States. Can you guess where it may be built?

Researchers are going beyond conventional solar panels in a bid to generate heat and electricity from the other external surfaces of buildings.

Sensors that monitor infrastructure, such as bridges or buildings, or are used in medical devices, such as prostheses for the deaf, require a constant supply of power. The energy for this usually comes from batteries, which are replaced as soon as they are empty. This creates a huge waste problem. An EU study forecasts that in 2025, 78 million batteries will end up in the rubbish every day.

Both TikTok and Shein have sharply increased lobbying spending in the US as the two China-founded companies face scrutiny there over their Chinese ties.

$100, and you’ll have to supply your own power brick.

The news reflects how major players are rushing to expand their presence in the hope of getting a larger say as Beijing is pushing for industry-wide standards.

You’ll have to pay Amazon $2.99 more to get rid of them.

Videoconferencing gone spatial.

The latest major tech acquisition to fall apart.

An absolute unit, as usual. But is it worth the extra $100?

In recent years, engineers have been trying to identify new technologies to sustainably generate and store energy. One promising solution leverages the energy produced by osmosis when two fluids with a different salt concentration meet, such as when a freshwater body (e.g., a river) flows into a saltwater body (e.g., the sea).

Researchers have developed a robotic sensor that incorporates artificial intelligence techniques to read braille at speeds roughly double that of most human readers.

"Slow Horses" and "Bad Sisters" lead the Apple TV+ nominations for the UK Royal Television Society's Craft and Design Awards 2022.

USPS also showed off new electric delivery vehicles.

Social robots can help us with many things: teaching, learning, caring. Because they're designed to interact with humans, they're designed to make us comfortable—and that includes the way they talk. But how should they talk? Some research suggests that people like robots to use a familiar accent or dialect, while other research suggests the opposite.
