The end of silicon? New molecule could shrink computers even more

Scientists have discovered a new molecule that might transform how we build computers—making them smaller, faster, and more energy-efficient. The research, led by physicist Kun...

How AI is changing the job of hotel managers forever

Hotel managers may no longer be the decision-makers they once were, as artificial intelligence (AI) continues to take on more responsibility in the hospitality...

Scientists use AI to speed up the search for better batteries

In the fight against climate change, scientists are working hard to develop better and cleaner energy solutions. One of the most promising technologies is the...

How virtual reality fish are teaching robots to move like nature

Fish are incredible team players. When they swim in schools, there’s no leader giving orders, yet each fish knows how to stay in formation, avoid...

Scientists build tiny chip to solve big overheating problem in next-gen electronics

As technology advances, engineers are finding new ways to build powerful microchips by stacking them on top of each other—just like a high-rise building...

The Oscars have rolled out the red carpet for generative AI. And surprisingly, viewers...

The Oscars have entered the age of artificial intelligence (AI). Last week the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences explicitly said, for the first...

Tiny light-powered robot walks on wires like a cable car

Scientists have created a new type of soft robot that can carry cargo through the air by moving along thin wires or strings—similar to...

Scientists slash AI training time with smarter cloud communication system

Training large artificial intelligence (AI) models takes enormous computing power. Often, multiple servers must work together to process data and adjust the model’s settings—a method...

New AI can diagnose thyroid cancer with over 90% accuracy

A team of international researchers has developed the world’s first artificial intelligence (AI) model that can accurately determine both the stage and risk category...

Squishy new material could revolutionize future computers

Imagine a material that changes its structure just by being gently squeezed—like a high-tech sandwich. Scientists from Washington State University and the University of North...
