Tech Xplore / Say what's on your mind, and AI can tell what kind of person you are
If you say a few words, generative AI will understand who you are—maybe even better than your close family and friends. A new University of Michigan study found that widely available generative AI models (e.g., ChatGPT, ...
Medical Xpress / How digital health tools strengthen care when patients are the core focus
From patient portals and text messages to wearable devices and artificial intelligence, digital health technologies are becoming a significant part of medical care. But technology alone isn't enough to improve health outcomes. ...
Medical Xpress / Study recommends better continuity of care with GPs for people with dementia to save NHS money
Better continuity of care with GPs for people with dementia who are in their final year of life can save the NHS money, according to new research from academics at the Cicely Saunders Institute, part of the Faculty of Nursing, ...
Phys.org / Amazon Leo satellites exceed brightness limits, study finds
Seeing a satellite zip across the night sky can be a fascinating sight. However, what may be spectacular for people on the ground is becoming a major problem for astronomers. A new study published on the arXiv preprint server ...
Tech Xplore / Novel membrane boosts water electrolysis performance in low-alkalinity conditions
As green hydrogen emerges as a key next-generation clean energy source, securing technologies that enable its stable and cost-effective production has become a critical challenge. However, conventional water electrolysis ...
Phys.org / From stellar engines to Dyson bubbles, alien megastructures could hold themselves together under the right conditions
New theoretical models have strengthened the case that immense, energy-harvesting structures orbiting their host stars could exist in principle in distant stellar systems. With the right engineering precautions, calculations ...
Phys.org / Random driving on a 78-qubit processor reveals controllable prethermal plateau
Time-dependent driving has become a powerful tool for creating novel nonequilibrium phases such as discrete time crystals and Floquet topological phases, which do not exist in static systems. Breaking continuous time-translation ...
Phys.org / The Great Mongolian Road: Japanese Imperial Army maps reveal first detailed documentation
In a study published in the Journal of Historical Geography, researchers Dr. Chris McCarthy and his colleagues have documented, for the first time, the Great Mongolian Road, a major yet understudied east-west caravan route ...
Medical Xpress / New dashboard helps predict and plan for disease outbreaks
When infectious diseases surge, response often comes down to timing: whether communities can position the right people and supplies before case counts spike. A new tool developed by UC San Diego with UNICEF and New Light ...
Medical Xpress / Americans still expect families to shoulder most elder care, research finds
Americans believe that the family as a whole—especially a spouse or partner—is responsible for caring for an older adult. Biological and stepchildren have the next highest levels of obligation, according to a new University ...
Phys.org / Shining a light on sustainable sulfur-rich polymers that stay recyclable
For the first time, scientists have used ultraviolet (UV) light, a low-cost and readily available energy source, to successfully synthesize more sustainable and recyclable polymer materials. Led by green chemistry experts ...
Tech Xplore / Brain-inspired hardware uses single-spike coding to run AI more efficiently
The use of artificial intelligence (AI) systems, such as the models underpinning the functioning of ChatGPT and various other online platforms, has grown exponentially over the past few years. Current hardware and electronic ...
