Researchers at Columbia Engineering have unveiled a groundbreaking solution: a 3D photonic-electronic platform that achieves unprecedented energy efficiency and bandwidth density, paving the way for next-generation AI hardware. The study, "3D Pho

The Shift to Smarter SurveillanceTraditional video surveillance systems often fail to meet the needs of dynamic, modern environments. Whether it’s a retail chain looking to analyse customer behaviour or a factory monitoring equipment safety, the tools of yesterday aren’t enough to address today’s demands.The shift towards smarter surveillance involves integrating modular, AI-driven systems that:Adapt to your specific needs,Automate tedious tasks like foota

The AI video sector has crossed several milestones in just a few months. Gone are the days of six-fingered hands or distorted faces—AI-generated video is becoming increasingly convincing, attracting Hollywood, artists, and advertisers, while shaking the foundations of the creative industry. To measure the progress of AI video, you need only look at Will Smith eating spaghetti. Since 2023, this unlikely sequence—entirely fabricated—has become a technologica

Such findings have led to bipartisan efforts in the US Congress to curtail DeepSeek’s influence, with lawmakers scrambling to protect sensitive data from potential CCP oversight.Reps. Darin LaHood (R-IL) and Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ) are spearheading efforts to introduce legislation that would prohibit DeepSeek from being installed on all government-issued devices. DeepSeek is collecting the sensitive data of American citizens and sending it directly to the C

A team of researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) has introduced a novel framework for designing and creating universal diffractive waveguides that can control the flow of light in highly specific and complex ways. This new technology uses artificial intelligence (AI), specifically deep learning, to design a series of structured surfaces that guide light with high eff

Kevin Dietsch / Getty OpenAI is said to be launching a TikTok-like app that recommends an endless stream of swipeable — and purely AI-generated — short-form videos. As Wired reports, the company is expected to launch the stand-alone app alongside its Sora 2 text-to-video AI-generation tool. The app will consist of a personalized video feed that closely resembles TikTok’s For You page, according to documents viewed by the magazine. The focus will exclusivel

OpenAI OpenAI has officially unveiled its latest text-to-video and audio AI generator, Sora 2. So far, we’re not quite convinced by the company’s marketing efforts. In an unsettling promotional clip, an algorithmically synthesized version of OpenAI’s CEO, Sam Altman, announces the company’s answer to Meta’s Vibes app — a TikTok-like experience designed to expose users to an endless deluge of AI slop. The issue? The AI-generated Altman suffers from chronic

AI Generated Video The mass adoption of generative AI has given rise to some bizarre waves of incomprehensible slop. There was the “good ending,” a glut of AI generated images depicting Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg as starcrossed lovers, which surfaced as their public feud threatened to turn violent. Then of course there was “Shrimp Jesus,” followed closely by the “baby monk,” a disturbing series featuring babies clad in robes being eaten alive by fire an

Sora 2 (Screenshots via Instagram) To take president Donald Trump’s word for it, America’s cities are in ruins, forcing him to deploy federal troops to Portland, Washington DC, and Memphis. There’s just one wrinkle — no one seems to be able to find any real evidence of the mass riots and anarchist violence that Trump and his supporters insist is destroying the nation. Luckily for them, that problem is easily solved with a little help from AI. The phenomeno

AI Generated Video (Screenshots) Welcome to the age of slop spectacle, where AI horrors are flushed down to you from the very top. On Saturday night, sitting president of the United States of America Donald Trump shared an extraordinarily bizarre AI-generated video of himself piloting a fighter jet labelled “KING TRUMP” while strafing droves of peaceful protestors with multiple barrages of — we swear we are not making this up — liquid diarrhea. This is not

Matt Shumer via X Last week, AI investor Matt Shumer posted AI-generated first-person-shooter footage that was intended to be an impressive glimpse at the future of video games. “AI games are going to be amazing,” he tweeted in the caption of the 84-second clip. But instead of demonstrating that the video game industry is about to be revolutionized by the advent of generative AI, the clip drew widespread derision and mockery. And it doesn’t take long to fi

NewsMax Believe it or not, another right wing news network got fooled by obvious AI slop designed to denigrate poor people who can’t get food because their food stamps are on hold. On October 30, Newsmax — the TV network for people who think Fox News is too liberal, basically — aired an AI-generated video purportedly showing a woman raging at a supermarket cashier, threatening to walk out with her haul of groceries without paying because “they cut her food

Forget AI coding agents. One startup is now working on an AI CEO that it hopes could automate an entire business from end to end. Skyfall AI came out of stealth this week after spending the past year developing AI systems that are designed to make the long-term decisions typically handled by company executives. Now, the startup wants to put its technology to the test in the real world by buying a small SaaS or e-commerce business for up to $1 million and l
