These advances have the potential to allow augmented dexterity to make surgery safer, faster, and more reliable for patients worldwide.
A new hydrogel developed by Japanese scientists uses sunlight to efficiently produce hydrogen from water, mimicking natural photosynthesis.
The successful use of imitation learning to train surgical robots eliminates the need to program robots with each individual move required during a medical procedure and brings the field of robotic surgery closer to true autonomy, where robots could perform complex surgeries without human help.
AI assistance can significantly improve productivity and satisfaction…Because AI tools have an equalizing effect on performance, they may also promote equality in a famously unequal profession….law schools, lawyers, judges, and clients should affirmatively embrace AI tools and plan for a future in which they will become widespread.
The portrait depicts the British mathematician Alan Turing as the god of artificial intelligence. Its creator is a robot named Ai-Da that resembles a woman with a bob haircut.
…researchers show how mobile robots that use AI logic to make decisions were able to perform exploratory chemistry research tasks to the same level as humans, but much faster.
Rapid advances in applying artificial intelligence to simulations in physics and chemistry have some people questioning whether we will even need quantum computers at all.
The 68-year-old's cancerous cells were almost undetectable and had not been spotted before they were found by AI.
It's a clever demonstration of how AI language models…can be harnessed to do tasks that on the surface have little to do with language…It took the pair of roboticists only four days to teach the robot arms, which were given access only to a regular sponge, to identify a nearby spill.
The robot is able to detect and react to changes in the environment (e.g., moving fixtures) and action failures (e.g., failure to insert the cover, tripping, environment collisions [1:24]) using a combination of vision, force, and proprioceptive sensors.
