Schematic of horizontal elongation in an optimized cell cluster. (a) Left: the final configuration of a simulation with randomly initialized parameters; right: the final simulation state after learning. Source cells, in red, secrete the growth factor and cannot divide. Proliferating cells, in gray, sense the growth factor and divide in response to it. (b) The learned gene network. The receptor gene is activated only by the presence of the external chemical

The study, published in Sustainable Development, in collaboration with partners in Spain, found that AI technologies could give hotels, restaurants and cruise lines a competitive edge while dramatically

Satellite image shows three tropical waves in the Atlantic on June 28, 2024. The wave to the far right developed into Hurricane Beryl, which became the earliest Category 5 Atlantic hurricane on record.

Researchers at North Carolina State University have unveiled Rainbow, a first-of-its-kind multi-robot self-driving laboratory that autonomously discovers high-performance quantum dots—semiconductor nanoparticles critical for next-generation displays, solar cells, LEDs and quantum-engineering technologies. Combining advanced robotics with artificial intelligence, Rainbow can conduct and analyze up to 1,000 experiments per day witho

DOI: 10.1103/4d98-tdlp A study by University of Hawaiʻi researchers is advancing how we learn the laws that govern complex systems—from predator-prey relationships to traffic patterns in cities to how populations grow and shift—using artificial intelligence (AI) and physics. The research, published in Physical Review Research, introduces a new method based on statistical mech

Covering about 30% of the United States' land, these vast areas mainly consist of grasslands, shrublands, woodlands, and savannas. Maintaining these rangelands can be challenging. Early signs of soil and vegetation stress, the spread of invasive grass, increased risk

Credit: Unsplash/CC0 Public Domain A new study has revealed that the displacement of skilled workers by technology began nearly two decades ago—well before the recent breakthroughs in artificial intelligence that have sparked widespread concern over jobs becoming automated in the future. Published in the Socio-Economic Review, the research shows that leading sectors in the so-called "knowledge economy"—including finance, tech, and professional services—hav

Providing better securityCyberattacks are a growing concern in industries, and cryptocurrency is no exception. There are more than approximately 940,000 attacks daily worldwide. In the cryptocurrency industry, issues like private key compromises have surged in number , and compromises accounted for almost half (43.8%) of stolen cryptocurrency in 2024, with the total number of stolen funds rising by about 21% that year.Since bad actors reinvent themselves c

Enterprise artificial intelligence investment is unprecedented, with IDC projecting global spending on AI and GenAI to double to $631 billion by 2028. Yet beneath the impressive budget allocations and boardroom enthusiasm lies a troubling reality: most organisations struggle to translate their AI ambitions into operational success.The sobering statistics behind AI’s promiseModelOp’s 2025 AI Governance Benchmark Report, based on input from 100 senior AI and
