Using pulse current charging, or a constant current divided with a few short breaks, lithium-ion batteries hold up better over hundreds of charging cycles and can last twice as long.

The creators of the Taichi chiplet claim it's more energy-efficient and scalable than other photonic components and can be used to train superhuman AI models in the future.

Short, stumpy robots learned how to play soccer — and improved their skills dramatically thanks to a new AI training technique that combines several pre-existing methods.

IBM's latest System One quantum computer is based at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) and is the 1st IBM quantum machine to be installed at a university campus in the U.S.

Scientists used a technique called 'active syndrome extraction' to build four logical qubits from 30 physical ones and run 14,000 experiments without detecting a single error.

The researchers hit a rate of 301 terabits per second — equivalent to transferring 1,800 4K movies over the internet in one second — using existing fiber-optic cables.

Quantum computers will break encryption one day. But converting data into light particles and beaming them around using thousands of satellites might be one way around this problem.

Scientists have built a framework that gives generative AI systems like DALL·E 3 and Stable Diffusion a major boost by condensing them into smaller models — without compromising their quality.

New chip design uses photons rather than electrons to perform calculations, and scientists hope to integrate the technology into future graphics cards to train AI.

This 14-inch wireless charging device works at a rate of 100 kW, scientists claim, meaning it's up to 10 times as fast as some of the best commercially available alternatives.

Scientists trained an AI system to think before speaking with a technique called QuietSTaR. The inner monologue improved common sense reasoning and doubled math performance.

By letting different processing units — like GPUs, NPUs and hardware accelerators — work in parallel, rather than in sequence, systems can be up to twice as fast and consume 50% less energy.

Scientists built an app that let them control a robot using hand gestures while wearing the Apple Vision Pro VR headset.

Cerebras' Wafer Scale Engine 3 (WSE-3) chip contains four trillion transistors and will power the 8-exaFLOP Condor Galaxy 3 supercomputer one day.

Scientists used AI neural networks to teach a robot dog new tricks, enabling it to climb wooden crates and hop between them.

The new processor stores data in modified DNA molecules and uses microfluidic channels to perform basic computations.

The scientist who configured a small drone to target people with facial recognition and chase them at full speed warns we have no defenses against such weapons.

We could build an AI that demonstrates generalized, human-level intelligence within three to eight years — which may open the door to a "super intelligence" in a very short space of time.

The T-Flight is a maglev train that hit a record-breaking speed of 387 mph on a short test track — but engineers want to double that rate so the train can carry passengers at speeds faster than if they were traveling by plane.

Scientists used "knowledge distillation" to condense Stable Diffusion XL into a much leaner, more efficient AI image generation model that can run on low-cost hardware.

Say goodbye to earbuds that break down and create fuzz. New ultrasonic audio chip could lead to digital headphones with better noise-cancelling and spatial audio.

Qubits are normally made from superconducting metals and need to be cooled to near absolute zero to avoid collapsing. But scientists just built an error-free "logical qubit" from a single laser pulse — and it works at room temperature.

AI chatbots can't remember things well. However, scientists might have fixed AI's critical short-term memory issue, while OpenAI is also beginning to roll out long-term memory for ChatGPT.

Boston Dynamics has released footage showing how its flagship Atlas humanoid robot would cope in a factory environment as it lifts heavy struts and puts them into a flow cart.
