Researchers have created a thin transparent neural implant that can monitor activity on the brain's surface but also account for functions at a deeper level. The hope is that it will lead to an accurate but less invasive brain-computer interface.

Researchers developed an AI algorithm that automatically analyzes chest X-rays to rapidly detect COVID-19 infection with more than 98% accuracy, distinguishing between normal X-rays and X-rays from people with viral pneumonia.

Figure's Brett Adcock claimed a "ChatGPT moment" for humanoid robotics on the weekend. Now, we know what he means: the robot can now watch humans doing tasks, build its own understanding of how to do them, and start doing them entirely autonomously.

It's remarkable to watch the CyberRunner robot rapidly advance from shaky beginner to smooth, seasoned pro – and, like humans, it even finds ways to cheat. A compelling demonstration of AI's ability to master complex real-world skills.
-
Australian researchers are putting together a supercomputer designed to emulate the world's most efficient learning machine – a neuromorphic monster capable of the same estimated 228 trillion synaptic operations per second that human brains handle.
-
Scientists have grown a tiny brain-like organoid out of human stem cells, hooked it up to a computer, and demonstrated its potential as a kind of organic machine learning chip, showing it can quickly pick up speech recognition and math predictions.
-
Researchers have combined high-resolution images of blood vessels under the skin of diabetics and an AI algorithm to formulate a ‘score’ that can determine disease severity. The technique could be used to monitor the effectiveness of treatment.
-
Researchers have analyzed blood proteins to estimate the biological - as opposed to the chronological - age of bodily organs to predict a person’s risk of disease. The approach may lead to the earlier detection of disease in apparently healthy people.

Researchers are using machine learning to analyze satellite radar data to detect icebergs in the Southern Ocean around Antarctica as a way to better understand their life cycle and environmental impact.

Noise-cancelling headphones are great for blocking out the loud talkers and chaotic coffee shops of the world, but what if there are certain sounds that you want to hear? That's where the experimental new "semantic hearing" system could soon come in.
-
Researchers have developed an implant that records brain signals to decode what people are trying to say. While still early days, the device may provide people who’ve lost speech due to neurodegenerative disease with the ability to communicate.

Elon Musk, who cofounded OpenAI but walked away from the company in 2018, has finally rolled out his long-threatened xAI chatbot to some US X users. The sassy, snarky Grok, like much of what Musk touches, has people equally excited and concerned.
