Using artificial intelligence to control digital manufacturing
A new machine learning system makes 3D printing much easier. Previously, an expert operator had to manually determine the ideal parameters that would allow efficient printing with new material, choosing the right print speed and the right amount of material. Now an AI machine, which uses computer vision to monitor the production process and then correct errors in real-time, will be able to print objects quickly and error-free. It is even possible to create objects with special electrical or che

An algorithm that detects sepsis reduces deaths by nearly 20 percent
Sepsis, a condition that can lead to death within hours and causes one in three hospital inpatient deaths in the United States. The electronic health record research community has developed automated systems that send reminders to doctors to check patients for sepsis. To ensure that these alerts are not ignored, machine learning researchers are working to customize programs to reduce the number of disabled notifications. Now the AI will not make decisions about sepsis on behalf of health care p

IcePic could help atmospheric scientists improve climate change models in the future
An artificial algorithm called IcePic has been developed by Cambridge scientists. It is capable of outperforming scientists in predicting how and when different materials form ice crystals. Deep learning is the ability of artificial intelligence to learn to extract information from raw data. It finds its own patterns in the data, freeing it from the need for human input to process the results faster and more accurately. IcePic, in turn, can infer different properties of ice crystal formation ar

Identifying promising polymer membranes
Machine learning researchers have developed an accurate way to identify novel, high-performance polymeric membranes using ML methods. Such membranes are widely used in industry to separate gases such as CO2 from flue gases and methane from natural gas. Using various fingerprint traits and fixed chemical descriptors, the team of scientists applied deep learning on a small data set to relate the chemistry of the membranes to their performance. They found that the ML model was able to detect thou

A film about the love story of a cockroach and artificial intelligence from GPT-3
Artist Miao Ying's film "Excessive Intelligence" is the story of how a cockroach falls in love with the artificial intelligence responsible for monitoring its behavior. The story could be seen as a metaphor for some Chinese people's conflicted relationship with social credit scoring. Or it could be a hint at the insidious ways in which the social media platforms Twitter and Facebook collect data about people. At times the tale seems a bit ridiculous, but that's because of Miao's hidden collabor

A new computer game with DALLE-2
Architect and motion designer Tamzid Farhan Mogno has created an incredible new computer game with DALLE-2! To realize this project, the developer generated background elements, game environments and even sprite animations on a neural network. This made his work very easy. But it was just a quick test to find out the viability of AI-generated game assets. I've generated a sprite sheet animation & background elements entirely in #dalle2 for this project. This was just a quick test to figure out

AI-based applications developed using synthetic data can analyze the details of how people move
In response to strong demand for using fitness apps to exercise and track one's development and performance, Tel Aviv-based Datagen is providing "high-performance synthetic data with a focus on data for human-centered computer vision applications." The company announced a new domain, Smart Fitness. This visual synthetic data platform helps AI developers produce the data needed to analyze people exercising and train smart fitness equipment to be able to "see." Smart Fitness provides 3D-annotate

Stable Diffusion and crazy animations
Neural networks that create images based on text or voice descriptions have only recently begun to appear. But they have already gone from fanciful abstractions to almost photographic images that are generated in minutes. The Stable Diffusion neural network, which appeared in mid-August 2022, generates images of 512×512 pixels in just a few seconds under all conditions. This system is one of the biggest competitors for Dalle-2. Xander Steenbrugge, a programmer and artist from Belgium, used Sta

AI and shop-and-go
In a search for a promising buffet offering instead of the usual meal options for University of Denver students, food and facilities management company Sodexo found San Jose-based AiFi, which has a frictionless, cashierless retail solution based on artificial intelligence. AiFi, a company with only cameras and computer vision technology, now boasts a total of 80 cashierless stores worldwide, working with retailers such as Carrefour, Aldi, Loop and Verizon. AiFi's development is the use of soph

Xiaomi's CyberOne - a humanoid robot exploring the boundaries of connected life
Xiaomi's first humanoid robot, CyberOne, 177 cm tall and weighing 52 kg, debuted at the company's new product launch event in Beijing. This newest member of the Cyber series joins last year's four-legged Cyberdog robot. CyberOne is a humanoid robot with well-developed coordination and exceptional movement capabilities that can maintain a balanced posture while bipedal. It has also been demonstrated its ability to recognize human emotions, advanced vision capabilities, functionality to create th

Protein Universe with AlphaFold
AlphaFold, an artificial intelligence system that predicts the three-dimensional structure of a protein based on its one-dimensional amino acid sequence, and the AlphaFold Protein Structure Database (AlphaFold DB) were released a year ago. "AlphaFold is the only and important advance in life science that demonstrates the power of artificial intelligence. It used to take months or years to determine the 3D structure of a protein, now it takes seconds." Today, incredible updates to the system ha
