A twisted pair of photonic crystals integrated with MEMS can dynamically control the handedness of light on a chip. Researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed…
New research explores the potential risks and ethical implications of machine sentience, emphasizing the importance of understanding and preparing for the emergence of consciousness in AI and machine learning technologies. It calls for careful consideration…
The AI-NERD model learns to produce a unique fingerprint for each sample of XPCS data. Mapping fingerprints from a large experimental dataset enables the identification of trends and repeating patterns which aids our understanding of…
Quick: When was the last time you thought about the keyboard app on your phone? If you’re like most people, the answer is probably somewhere between “a ridiculously long time ago” and “never.” And it’s…
A tiny metasurface chip can turn invisible infrared light into steerable visible beams, opening the door to powerful new optical technologies. Developing extremely small devices that can precisely guide and manipulate light is critical for…
Researchers have developed an innovative tool that accelerates the design of auxetic materials—materials that expand when compressed and contract when stretched. This could lead to broader applications in products requiring impact resistance and comfort, such…
A new AI model from the University of South Australia offers a faster, more cost-effective method for schools to assess student creativity. The model significantly reduces the time and cost of scoring creativity tests, helping…
Once upon a time, a young doctor joined the surgical unit at a prestigious hospital as an anaesthesiologist. He was an Apple user, of course, wearing Vision Pro during surgical procedures, as it allowed him…
Meta is working on developing tools to identify images synthetically produced by generative AI systems at scale across its social media platforms, such as Facebook, Instagram, and Threads, the company said on Tuesday. “…we’ve been…
