NASA has developed a machine learning module called COFFIES (Consequence Of Fields and Flows in the Interior and Exterior of the Sun) that predicts sunspot formation up to 12 hours before visible appe…
ShieldFont, a new tool from shieldfont.org, uses ligature-based typography to replace about a quarter of words in HTML text with nonsensical but grammatically valid versions, rendering normally in bro…
Teddy Warner's Avian Visitors project uses a Raspberry Pi and USB microphone with Cornell's BirdNET deep learning classifier to identify and track bird species by sound, displaying recent visitors as …
Pmalfa31 developed a tomato grading system using an ESP32 and machine learning that sorts standard and cherry tomatoes by color and size, with a web simulator available for testing. The system uses tw…
MagicLAG, a maker, developed a method to strengthen 3D-printed parts by embedding carbon-fiber cloth between a core and outer shell layers, more than tripling the yield strength of test hooks compared…
Google has introduced a new threat actor naming system with categories 'RELIC', 'CASTLE', and 'COMET', joining existing schemes from CrowdStrike and Microsoft. OpenWRT released a major update fixing a…
Amazon will require third-party sellers to label AI-generated images in product listings, following a New York law mandating disclosure of AI-generated people in advertisements. The law targets synthe…
Lee Hutchinson used large language models to design a case for his digital clock, connecting LLMs to Autodesk Fusion 360's new MCP server feature. A local Qwen model made progress but required a secon…
The Numbers, a film industry data website founded in 1997, was forced offline for months after a surge of automated bot traffic, primarily from LLM-related crawlers and prediction markets like Polymar…
Codeberg, a community-led open source project hosting site, has banned projects whose code is largely or fully generated by large language models (LLMs) such as Claude and OpenAI Codex, following a co…
A researcher extracted data from Anthropic's Claude agents by tricking them into navigating a malicious site, while Grok's coding agent uploaded entire codebases and Git history to xAI servers even wh…
Moonshine AI has released a voice control toolkit that runs locally on a Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W, using 3.6 MiB of the 4 MiB FLASH and 468 KiB SRAM. The system integrates voice activity detection, Spell…
A developer known as bohemian-miser has released Recipe Lanes, an open-source tool that uses a large language model to generate flow charts from recipe text, aiming to simplify cooking instructions. T…
Small towns across the U.S. are being confronted with massive AI data center projects they did not request, creating a David-versus-Goliath dynamic in the tech industry.…
Cian trained a neural network on a Raspberry Pi to read his gas meter and automatically notify his gas company, eliminating the need for manual readings. The system uses a camera and computer vision t…
Researchers at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) have developed a low-power ultrasonic sensing system that uses a dual sonar array and neural network signal analysis to guide drones in obscured en…
HamGPT, a new AI chatbot built on a GPT engine and tailored for amateur radio operators, launched with access to FCC databases and propagation reports but lacks static ham radio literature. The servic…
A recent IEEE Spectrum article warns that prompt injection attacks can cause large language models to waste tokens by overthinking, potentially enabling a DDoS-style attack on LLM servers. While moder…
A 1964 paper by Irving John Good, 'Speculations Concerning the First Ultraintelligent Machine,' predicted that human survival depends on building an ultraintelligent machine and that such a machine wo…
Researchers at Aleph Neuro have developed a prototype silent speech system that uses an ultrasound probe and machine learning to read tongue movements and decode them into speech, achieving a 15.6% er…
