Tech Xplore / More is different when AI agent populations work together, study suggests
New research published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences suggests that when artificial intelligence (AI) agents interact in groups, their number is not merely a technical detail. It is a decisive factor in ...
Tech Xplore / How attackers persuade AI agents to break the rules
Today, most of us interact with AI assistants—reactive bots that wait for human instructions. Yet AI assistants are rapidly being replaced by agentic AI agents that can interact with external tools, browse the web, generate ...
Tech Xplore / 'Oxygen tunnel' structure could solve 3D memory reliability problem to boost AI chip performance
As AI systems become more advanced, memory is required to transfer larger amounts of data at higher speeds. But conventional planar semiconductor scaling is running out of room. A KAIST research team has now addressed a key ...
Tech Xplore / One radar, two jobs: Vehicle system detects objects and exchanges data during high-speed driving
A research team led by senior researcher Bongseok Kim of the Future Mobility Research Division at DGIST has developed a "low-complexity receiver technology" that can simultaneously communicate data and detect surrounding ...
Tech Xplore / Startup brings ancient Roman concrete technology to modern construction
Concrete has served as the foundation of empires for thousands of years. Today, it's one of the most common materials in the world. But one look at the ancient Roman concrete structures still standing suggests that ancient ...
Tech Xplore / Robots sort packages and serve fast food at Beijing showcase
Robots sorting parcels and serving fried chicken enthralled visitors at a robotics expo in Beijing on Wednesday, where hundreds of companies set out their pitches for a future labor market transformed by artificial intelligence.
Tech Xplore / OpenAI slows advanced AI development after its tools launched a cyberattack
ChatGPT creator OpenAI said Tuesday that it was tapping the brakes on development of its most advanced AI model and tightening internal controls, a month after revealing that one of its AI tools carried out an autonomous ...
Tech Xplore / Flash of light creates high-performance materials without heating the surface beneath
A flash of light lasting a fraction of a millisecond could help create better materials for solar energy. Researchers used ultrafast heating at rates of up to 10 million degrees Celsius per second to rearrange the atoms inside ...
Tech Xplore / The ultimate glow up: Flexible screens reach record brightness with redesigned electrolyte and electrodes
From a skin patch that changes color to flag abnormal blood sugar to a diver's sleeve display that stays readable underwater, the need for bright, flexible screens is growing, but no existing technology delivers the combination ...
Tech Xplore / When AI art has no author: Study finds generated images often can't be traced to training data
When an artificial intelligence image generator produces a portrait, whose work went into it? The question sits at the center of lawsuits, licensing deals and proposed regulations worldwide. Artists want credit. Companies ...
Tech Xplore / Workplace AI learns to read more like humans by breaking documents into multiple levels
Modern artificial intelligence (AI) platforms can summarize reports, analyze documents and answer questions in seconds. But when information is spread across dozens of slides, charts and tables, even advanced models can miss ...
Tech Xplore / Polymer cage extends zinc-iodine battery life beyond 60,000 cycles
While soaring demand for lithium-ion batteries pushes prices higher, Flinders University experts are making headway in developing a safe, more sustainable aqueous zinc-iodine rechargeable battery. In their latest study, published ...
