Nissan has outlined a "sustainability plan" to become a greener and more inclusive company, promising to recycle batteries, empower its workers and create safer cars.

Microsoft reported a 10% increase in quarterly profits Tuesday as it tries to maintain its position as a leader in artificial intelligence technology.

Authorities in Washington have determined that a Tesla that hit and killed a motorcyclist near Seattle in April was operating on the company's "Full Self Driving" system at the time of the crash.

Samsung Electronics Wednesday reported its fastest growth since 2010, with operating profits soaring for the second quarter, as chip prices bounce back and demand for generative AI continues to grow.

Using only on-board sensors and cameras, researcher Julián Estévez, from the Computational Intelligence Group (GIC) of the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) has developed low-cost, autonomous, navigation technology to prevent two or more drones whose paths cross in mid-air from colliding with each other. He has achieved positive, encouraging results.

Multipath effects, resulting from satellite signals reflecting off objects before reaching the receiver, seriously compromise the precision of satellite navigation systems. Existing solutions like Sidereal Filtering and system-specific MHMs require observations spanning at least one full cycle of satellite orbit repeat period (e.g., 10 days for Galileo) to reproduce the satellite geometry against ground stations.

Most wind turbines face the wind—and there is a good reason for that. Since the 1980s, wind turbine developers have been using what is called the "Danish concept" for their designs—three blades, positioned upwind (i.e., facing the wind), that are engineered to keep facing the wind to maximize energy production.

Connecting multiple AIs together and putting them in the body of a robot, similar to Star Wars' C-3PO or R2-D2, is the most likely way AI will become as intelligent as humans, according to a scientist from the University of Sheffield.

To measure the flow of air through a jet engine, researchers traditionally place sensors where air enters and exits.

Vice President Kamala Harris campaigns in Georgia as she seeks to keep the battleground state in play for Democrats.

Bill marks first effort by Congress in decades to hold tech companies more accountable for content that endangers children and teens.

Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate will campaign together in battleground states next week, sources familiar with the plans previously told CBS News.

Yuichi Hirose has a dream—a dream that someday everyone will have access to a machine capable of knitting furniture.

The US Senate passed a sweeping social media safety package Tuesday that would force tech companies to do more to protect children—the first major legislation targeting Silicon Valley in a generation.

Airbus said Tuesday that its net profit in the first half year fell 46 percent to 825 million euros ($890 million), dragged down by a massive writedown in its space operations.

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) models like OpenAI's GPT-4o or Stability AI's Stable Diffusion are surprisingly capable at creating new text, code, images and videos. Training them, however, requires such vast amounts of data that developers are already running up against supply limitations and may soon exhaust training resources altogether.
