Understanding how battery components work at the molecular or atomic levels can help scientists create faster-charging, more powerful, longer-lived storage devices. But the electron microscopes powerful enough to give this ...

Can AI fine-tuning that once took 10 hours be completed in just three hours? KAIST researchers have developed a technology that selects the most useful training data and distributes it evenly across multiple GPUs.

It's hard to ignore the difference: You can fill a car's tank with gas in mere minutes. Charging the battery of an electric vehicle (EV) can take 30 minutes or more.

As Domestic Violence Awareness Month comes to a close this week, one University of Florida researcher is examining the roots of nudification apps, online platforms that use AI to turn images of clothed people—easily and convincingly—into ...

Solar cells generate electricity by absorbing sunlight in a thin layer of perovskite, a light-absorbing material. This layer is made with a liquid solution that dries and crystallizes into a solid film, but small changes ...

Dozens of robots took on more than 3,000 steps up one of China's most famous peaks Monday, carrying eggs and watermelons in a race organizers billed as a test of real-world machine endurance, state media showed.

A humanoid AI system has been developed that learns jointly from separately collected locomotion and object-manipulation data to perform multiple stages of a task in sequence.

What happens to all of your online accounts—credit cards, merchants, news subscriptions, social media, streaming services—after you die? How will your heirs know how to access these accounts or understand what you want done ...

Nearly all personal information is stored electronically in our digital age. This sensitive data is protected by digital keys unique to each device that would take today's computers billions of years to crack through brute-force ...

As global warming continues, people tend to switch on fans or air conditioners during hot weather. But the more we use electrical appliances, the more energy we consume and carbon dioxide we produce. With continuous breakthroughs ...

Heat transfer from a heated surface depends partly on the thin layer of air that warms and rises beside it. As this natural convection boundary layer develops, its flow can change from orderly patterns to turbulence, influencing ...

Tin is able to exchange four electrons as it changes between dissolved ions and solid metal, but acidic tin batteries commonly use only a two-electron reaction, leaving half that potential charge out of reach. Now, researchers ...
