Tech Xplore / Mythos AI alarm bells: Fair warning or marketing hype?
Anthropic postponing the release of its new AI model Claude Mythos, said to be so skilled at coding it could be a wicked weapon for hackers, has encountered a mix of alarm and skepticism.
Tech Xplore / After Anthropic's Mythos AI uncovers thousands of zero-day bugs, top US officials huddle with bank CEOs
The heads of America's biggest banks met this week with Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to weigh the security implications of a new artificial intelligence system developed by Anthropic, ...
Tech Xplore / When AI meets muscle: Context-aware electrical stimulation guides humans through new movements
Imagine traveling in a foreign country, reaching for a window you've never seen before, and instead of struggling to open it, you feel your own muscles gently guide you through the motion, as if an invisible teacher was there, ...
Tech Xplore / AI is changing more than your writing—it may be shaping your worldview, say researchers
Use of ChatGPT, Claude and other large language models, or LLMs—what most people call "AI"—has surged since ChatGPT debuted publicly in 2022. Hundreds of millions of people now use these tools weekly, according to recent ...
Tech Xplore / Online viewers prefer livestreams to recordings
In an era when most TikTok videos are prerecorded, can a band with a new single create a tighter bond with fans by debuting via livestream instead? Can a business do the same when promoting a new product?
Tech Xplore / Volcanic rock formula cuts cement emissions by two-thirds
Researchers have developed a volcanic rock formula that cuts carbon emissions by 67%, potentially offering an affordable alternative to increasingly scarce cement additives.
Tech Xplore / Compression technique makes AI models leaner and faster while they're still learning
Training a large artificial intelligence model is expensive, not just in dollars, but in time, energy, and computational resources. Traditionally, obtaining a smaller, faster model either requires training a massive one first ...
Tech Xplore / Origami-inspired robot built from printable polymers uses electric current to move
With their ability to shapeshift and manipulate delicate objects, soft robots could work as medical implants, deliver drugs inside the body and help explore dangerous environments. But the squishy machines are often limited ...
Tech Xplore / Electrofluidic fiber muscles could enable silent robotic systems
Muscles are remarkably effective systems for generating controlled force, and engineers developing hardware for robots or prosthetics have long struggled to create analogs that can approach their unique combination of strength, ...
