Just because Google and Apple are now calling it Lake America doesn't mean everyone has to.
Microsoft is pushing a "hybrid intelligence" future with a new Surface Ultra laptop that runs on Nvidia artificial intelligence (AI) chips and will cost more than $2,500, the company announced Wednesday.
Elon Musk's SpaceX is aiming to raise $40 billion in bank loans and debt to further its purchases of AI chips from Nvidia, according to a Financial Times report citing sources close to the talks.
The FIA has defended its handling of the Formula 1 car software bug which delayed the start of the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia last weekend and pledged it will "strengthen" how the code is tested in future.
Beyond the immediate headache for consumers affected by a data breach, breaches can also trigger years of financial repercussions, such as denials of mortgage refinancing and home improvement loans, according to new Virginia Tech research published in the journal MIS Quarterly.
Over the past few decades, electronics engineers have developed increasingly sophisticated implantable medical devices. Reliably powering some of these devices, however, can be challenging, particularly when they are based on stretchable materials that move along with the body.
UNSW researchers have teamed up with industry partner UtmoLight to achieve a world-record efficiency for a large-area perovskite solar submodule. The UNSW team, led by Xiaojing Hao, a Scientia professor, achieved a certified stabilized power conversion efficiency of 23.5%, beating the previous…
The United States, China and the European Union are taking different paths to govern artificial intelligence, as calls grow worldwide to rein in its most powerful systems.
A laboratory study has improved the production of green hydrogen using solar energy, thanks to photocatalysts that incorporate metals subjected to various treatments designed to enhance dispersion and photocatalytic activity.
Conventional metal recovery technologies do not adequately recover critical metals from effluents containing hydrophilic organic solvents. Researchers investigated dithiocarbamate-functionalized cellulose DPE6 to assess how organic solvents affect its metal sorption capability and to develop a…
Florida State University faculty are helping build stronger structures by examining how wave-shaped patterns on exterior walls and roofs reduce wind loads on low-rise buildings by up to 60%.
Solar cells absorb sunlight and convert it into electricity. This process, however, is not perfect, and a large part of the solar energy is simply lost along the way. Some of it is lost as heat, while photons with insufficient energy pass through the cell without generating electricity.
Science has increasingly used artificial intelligence (AI) as a kind of microscope—sorting data, analyzing images and revealing hidden patterns. Now a new shift is underway: AI that not only breaks down data but also helps scientists decide what to do next through simple, natural language requests.
A team of Binghamton University researchers has developed a sensor system aimed at helping medical professionals more efficiently monitor how many people are coughing—and potentially spreading a disease—within a given area.
French AI startup Mistral announced Tuesday its biggest open-weight model, dubbed "Chonk," claiming enhanced performance and security capabilities for clients seeking to keep their data private instead of relying on closed models from the likes of Anthropic and OpenAI.
For decades, silicon transistors have driven computational power, and scientists have devoted much of their time to making them smaller. That is because shrinking these tiny electronic switches that make up computer chips allows manufacturers to pack more of them into the same space, increasing…
When new information is continually added and old information is removed, an AI system may fail to find the correct material even when that material exists.
