The Russia-Ukraine war began to slide into situations where Ukrainian robots fight Russian robots, and even attack robot factories in the heart of Russia. The attacks from last week already involved robots with basic autonomy, at least according to the Ukrainians' claim
Students in the fourth year of the Department of Software and Information Systems Engineering at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev decided to produce an up-to-date answer to the ancient writings and under the guidance of Prof. Mark Lest, developed an artificial intelligence system that completes the missing sections in the ancient texts
Artificial intelligence that generates images trains on artists' works without their consent, and also imitates their style. A group of researchers and artists decided to fight against the phenomenon with sophisticated digital tools
The day is not far when we will see the first autonomous games. These will be games created by artificial intelligence from start to finish
According to the researchers, the dolphins communicate in a different way and change their vocal behavior when they encounter the noise of a ship and therefore they are definitely affected by the noise of the ships. Past studies have already shown that a change in vocal behavior can be related to stress and distress
A new study, led by the UK's University of Bath, has found that supermassive black holes need both merging galaxies and cold gas to grow. This discovery, obtained through machine learning, may change our understanding of galaxy evolution
The far-reaching AI legislation is the latest example of the EU's role as a global digital policy-setter.
This is according to the Dark Energy Survey Partnership, of which University College London is a founding member, hosts the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in the United States and includes more than 400 scientists from 25 institutions in 7 countries
Researchers in Germany have developed an artificial intelligence capable of postulating physical theories by identifying patterns in complex data sets and after being fed all known physics
achieved a significant breakthrough in the field of quantum computers, by maintaining quantum coherence at room temperature. Quantum coherence describes the ability of a quantum system to maintain a well-defined state over time, without being affected by environmental disturbances
OurCrowd, Israel's most active investor in the field of artificial intelligence, has invested $386 million in 81 AI companies around the world. The fund has so far achieved 8 exits in the field and is ranked among the 15 most active venture capital funds in the world in AI transactions since 2012, according to data analysis by PitchBook
Dr. Lonnie Johnson, an inventor who registered over 100 patents and developed a solid-state battery based on them, describes human evolution as an interactive process between biology and technology, in which each influences and is influenced by its own
The non-Abelian anions are quasi-particles with fascinating statistical and topological properties. Until recently, these particles were only theoretical, but now a research group from Harvard University has created them for the first time in the laboratory. The discovery may encourage companies in the field of quantum computing to use non-Abelian anions to create durable qubits.
The first study program of its kind from the Technion House of Continuing Studies is designed to train professional and skilled personnel for the industry that deals with computing and quantum technology, which is developing by leaps and bounds and is expected to change the tech worlds from end to end and among other things to provide solutions to security challenges that the State of Israel faces even these days
Rai Kodan wrote the book that won the award with the help of artificial intelligence that gave her complete sentences - which the author inserted in the book in its entirety. She estimated that about five percent of the entire text in the book consisted of sentences that she copied directly from the ChatGPT artificial intelligence engine
Let's start with the short and unsurprising summary: researchers trained artificial intelligence to act maliciously - and it did act maliciously. Apparently, the story ends here. But the devil is in the details
New research reveals: specific work experience affects the effectiveness of using artificial intelligence in the workplace
Researchers at the University of Bonn in Germany are investigating how the internal engines of machine learning applications in drug research work. Among other things, they discovered that the artificial intelligence systems have become quite lazy
Artificial intelligence and algorithms have the ability and are currently being used to exacerbate radicalisation, increase polarisation, and spread racism and political instability, according to an academic researcher from Lancaster University.
A management researcher from the University of Essex argues that true discovery and progress cannot rely on the minds and motivations of a few famous men. This involves investing in institutions that are anchored in democracy and sustainability - not only because it is more ethical, but because in the long run, it will be much more effective
Emma Twin will share through social media posts how she, as a virtual twin, helps doctors and researchers better understand diseases and the effectiveness of treatments - without endangering flesh and blood patients
Researchers have found that the action of a "driver" in an autonomous vehicle is accepted with more forgiveness than the action of a driver in a regular vehicle
The project developed by students and graduates of Bar-Ilan University analyzes anti-Israeli propaganda films and creates a response video to them on social networks
The Ministry of Innovation, Science and Technology and the Consulting and Legislation Department (Economic Law) at the Ministry of Justice publish a policy document on regulation and ethics in the field of artificial intelligence, which guides government ministries in their activities; A government knowledge center will be established for the benefit of the issue
