Computer scientist and award-winning author Melanie Mitchell has thought a lot about artificial intelligence — how it works in its many forms, how “intelligent” AI really is, how it might impact ...

As researchers try to build more complex computers that get closer to emulating the way the human brain works, one of the areas of focus is memory. Existing chips, hard disks and tape drives are great ...

In the 1950s AI researchers figured that if a toddler can learn to speak and understand, it should take only about five years to teach a computer the same skills. Fifty years on, there’s been little ...

Computers that use light instead of circuits to run calculations may sound like a plot point from a Star Trek episode, but researchers have been working on this novel approach to computing for years.

Prologue: terrified -- Part I: Background. The roots of artificial intelligence -- Neural networks and the ascent of machine learning -- AI spring -- Part II: Looking and seeing. Who, what, when, ...

Artificial intelligence systems, even those as sophisticated as ChatGPT, depend on the same silicon-based hardware that has been the bedrock of computing since the 1950s. But what if computers could ...

Computer vision has emerged as a cornerstone technology in the evolution of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), enabling the automated interpretation of visual data to enhance safety, efficiency ...

Elon Musk posted on social media last summer, “We are all dumb meat computers compared to digital superintelligence.” Andrej ...
