With goals to limit CO2 emissions, many countries have set targets to phase out internal combustion vehicles in favor of electric vehicles (EVs). Japan has set a target for 20%–30% of all car sales to be battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), and 30%–40% of car sales to be hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) by 2030.

Bearing the smiling face of one of Australia's cutest marsupials is a device its creators are claiming as the world's first consumer product in quantum computing technology.

Research on energy efficiency enhancement of a tortoise-inspired legged robot, by a research team led by Dongwon Yun, professor at the Department of Robotics and Mechatronics Engineering at DGIST, has been featured on the cover of Advanced Intelligent Systems.

Professor Kyung-In Jang's research team from the Department of Robotics and Mechatronics Engineering at DGIST has succeeded in developing a highly stable stretchable electronic device, which overcomes the mechanical limitations of conventional inorganic materials and enhances their stretchability and durability.

DGIST's Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Professor Jang Jae-eun and Professor Kwon Hyuk-jun and their research team have developed a high-efficiency process technology for next-generation AI memory transistors. The work is published online in Advanced Science.

An engineering research team led by Professor Yue Chen from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Hong Kong (HKU) has achieved a remarkable milestone in the realm of thermal transport in crystals.

Mark your calendars for Amazon's biggest sales event of the year, Amazon Prime Day 2024, coming this July.

China's Chang'e 6 is the first craft ever to collect soil and rock samples from the side of the moon that faces away from Earth into space.

Everything you need to know about early access deals for Amazon Prime Day 2024.

The United Nations chief on Monday launched global principles to combat online hate and lies and demanded that big tech companies use their power to reduce the harm they are doing to people and societies around the world.

Apple's next generation M4 Apple Silicon, is expected to arrive before the end of 2024, and is rumored to have a greater focus on AI than ever before.

Apple is continuing to insist that users can still get a lot of work done with just 8GB of memory in a Mac, while also being bullish about improving the gaming experience and AI development on the platform.

Packed with upgrades, Apple's latest M3 MacBook Air with 16GB RAM, 512GB of storage and a 10-core GPU is marked down to $1,349. AppleCare is discounted with an exclusive coupon as well, dropping the price down to $159.

Bluesky really is open to all, now.

The world of artificial intelligence (AI) has recently seen significant advancements in generative models, a type of machine-learning algorithm that "learns" patterns from sets of data in order to generate new, similar sets of data. Generative models are often used for things like drawing images and natural language generation—a famous example are the models used to develop chatGPT.

Researchers at Edith Cowan University (ECU) are developing new computer tracking technology that takes data from camera footage to detect whether a driver is impaired by alcohol or not when they get behind the wheel.

Nearly all the neural networks that power modern artificial intelligence tools such as ChatGPT are based on a 1960s-era computational model of a living neuron. A new model developed at the Flatiron Institute's Center for Computational Neuroscience (CCN) suggests that this decades-old approximation doesn't capture all the computational abilities that real neurons possess and that this older model is potentially holding back AI development.

European Union regulators on Monday leveled their first charges under the bloc's new digital competition rulebook, accusing Apple of preventing app makers from pointing users to cheaper options outside its App Store.

Dynamic wireless charging technology allows electric vehicles to charge while in motion, offering a promising solution to the limitations of fixed charging stations. Although it's not available yet, how do Kiwi drivers feel about this innovative technology?

Indonesia's national data center has been compromised by a hacking group asking for a $8 million ransom that the government won't pay, authorities said Monday.
