South Korean researchers at Seoul National University and Hanyang University have developed a generative AI model called Generative SNUPI that designs DNA sequences to fold into user-requested nanosca…
Security researcher Eddie Guy discovered that large language models (LLMs) like GPT-4o can be manipulated into providing dangerous information, such as instructions on creating bioweapons, by exploiti…
Software engineering job applicants are increasingly using AI assistants like Final Round AI, Interview Coder, and ParakeetAI to generate responses during remote technical interviews, while employers …
X Square Robot, a Chinese embodied-AI company, has outlined a foundation stack for general-purpose robots built on an integrated data, world model, and action model architecture. The company's Univers…
A study of 40 million papers found that scientists using AI publish more and advance faster, but AI-heavy research clusters around the same problems, reducing scientific diversity. The findings, publi…
AI startup Fundamental launched NEXUS, a large tabular model (LTM) designed to analyze structured data like spreadsheets, where large language models (LLMs) fail. The model, backed by $275 million in …
Independent lab Eigen Labs cracked Google's hidden quantum cryptography research in three days using crowdsourcing and AI agents, surpassing the original results. The breakthrough demonstrates the urg…
Researchers at UNIST and Hanbat National University in South Korea, and engineers in Japan, presented alternative memory chip designs at the IEEE VLSI Symposium that stack DRAM dies side by side inste…
Researchers from Zhejiang University and Alibaba demonstrated a new denial-of-service attack on large language models by deliberately inducing "overthinking" through logically inconsistent prompts, ca…
IEEE has honored robotics pioneer Toshio Fukuda with the 2025 Richard M. Emberson Award for his distinguished service advancing robotics. Fukuda, an IEEE Life Fellow and former IEEE president, is reco…
An anonymous artist known as SHL0MS tricked critics into dismissing a real Claude Monet painting as AI-generated slop, then sold the exchange as an NFT for $40,000. The stunt highlights the polarized …
The European Commission introduced a Tech Sovereignty Package on 3 June to reduce Europe's dependence on foreign technology, particularly from the U.S., citing concerns over security and liability. Th…
Adebayo Alonge's RxScanner, which uses AI to detect counterfeit medication, failed during a 2019 demo in Cape Town due to unreliable network connectivity. His team quickly developed a smaller, offline…
The rapid expansion of AI infrastructure is creating unpredictable, rapidly fluctuating electricity demand that challenges grid stability, according to experts. Unlike traditional industrial loads, AI…
Melbourne, Australia is emerging as a global leader in addressing the energy challenges posed by AI, as data centers are projected to account for up to 11% of Australia's electricity consumption by 20…
SpaceX founder Elon Musk claimed at Davos that orbital data centers will be the lowest-cost AI option within two to three years, and SpaceX filed an FCC application for up to 1 million satellites. How…
Emily M. Bender, lead author of the influential 'Stochastic Parrots' paper, debunked common misconceptions about the term on its five-year anniversary. The paper, which argued that large language mode…
Researchers accidentally discovered that ordinary CMOS transistors can function as artificial neurons and synapses, potentially enabling neuromorphic computing that is vastly more energy-efficient tha…
Researchers at UC Berkeley, Carnegie Mellon University, and Tel Aviv University developed ConlangCrafter, an AI model that generates novel constructed languages with consistent rules. The model can cr…
Capital One appointed Prem Natarajan, former head of Alexa AI at Amazon, as its Chief Scientist to lead AI research and deployment in financial services. The bank aims to solve domain-specific challen…
