Can artificial intelligence be an effective wingman?

A new, cheap, easily manufactured device could lead to improved satellite communication, high speed data transmission, and remote sensing, scientists say.

Matthew Day was keen to find out if an artificial intelligence-packed Google Pixel 9 smartphone could tell him a great local fishing spot.

Inventors and researchers have been developing robots for almost 70 years. To date, all the machines they have built—whether for factories or elsewhere—have had one thing in common: They are powered by motors, a technology that is already 200 years old. Even walking robots feature arms and legs that are powered by motors, not by muscles as in humans and animals. This in part suggests why they lack the mobility and adaptability of living creatures.

Apple is expected to release its latest line of iPhones on Monday that will feature generative AI capabilities as the tech behemoth looks to bolster sales of its iconic device.

We've long been warned about the looming demise of traditional journalism in the face of digital disruption. But some tech giants, once the very disruptors themselves, have been positioning themselves as journalism's saviors.

Apple's ubiquitous iPhone is about to break new ground with a shift into artificial intelligence that will do everything from smartening up its frequently dim-witted assistant Siri to creating customized emojis on the fly.

Germany's national rail company reported "massive" disruptions over parts of the country on Saturday, blaming a "technical disturbance" that was forcing many trains to wait at stations until the problem is cleared up.

The secret to avoiding red lights during rush hour in Utah's largest city might be as simple as following a bus.

This one-and-done form factor was a lot of fun to use.

The bandmates of Green Day were suddenly forced to exit the stage during their concert in Detroit. Find out what happened.

The troubled Boeing Starliner capsule successfully cruised back down to Earth from the International Space Station Friday evening — but no one was onboard.

The Australian government has released voluntary artificial intelligence (AI) safety standards, alongside a proposals paper calling for greater regulation of the use of the fast-growing technology in high-risk situations.

There’s a way to prevent plagiarism, academic dishonesty, and badly written ChatGPT essays. Why aren’t we using it?

Two-dimensional (2D) semiconducting materials have distinct optoelectronic properties that could be advantageous for the development of ultra-thin and tunable electronic components. Despite their potential advantages over bulk semiconductors, optimally interfacing these materials with gate dielectrics has so far proved challenging, often resulting in interfacial traps that rapidly degrade the performance of transistors.

From dancing laptops to some lost soul in a fridge, IFA 2024 had its fair share of impressive tech and incredibly wacky booths.

The non-Pro iPhone is having a moment.

The platform is also cracking down on unauthorized scraping.
