A team of AI and robotics researchers at Carnegie Mellon University, working with a pair of colleagues from technology company NVIDIA, has developed a new model for training robots to move like human athletes.

A new study by SRH University emphasizes the benefits of explainable AI systems for the reliable and transparent detection of deepfakes. AI decisions can be presented in a comprehensible way through feature analyses and visualizations, thus promoting trust in AI technologies.

A frantic race by tech giants to develop ever more powerful artificial intelligence (AI) could have "harmful" effects, leading researcher Yoshua Bengio warned Thursday as scientists marked the start of the Paris global summit on the technology.

ChatGPT developer OpenAI said Thursday that it would allow some European customers to store and process data from conversations with its chatbots within the European Union, rather than on its infrastructure in the United States or elsewhere.

My colleagues and I at Purdue University have uncovered a significant imbalance in the human values embedded in AI systems. The systems were predominantly oriented toward information and utility values and less toward prosocial, well-being and civic values.

Science fiction film and television has long been fascinated by robots. But stories that show us uncannily human cyborgs have often tended to veer towards either comedy or horror. Fritz Lang's "Metropolis" (1927) and Ridley Scott's "Blade Runner" (1982) both imagine a world where beautiful female cyborgs threaten to overstep their original programming. Rarer are stories that suggest it might be possible to love a cyborg, such as Susan Seidelman's underseen romantic comedy, "Making Mr. Right" (1987).

A small team of AI researchers from Stanford University and the University of Washington has found a way to train an AI reasoning model for a fraction of the price paid by big corporations that produce widely known products such as ChatGPT. The group has posted a paper on the arXiv preprint server describing their efforts to inexpensively train chatbots and other AI reasoning models.

Efforts to build artificial intelligence (AI) that could solve all the world's problems at a stroke are "nonsense", leading researcher Michael Jordan told scientists in Paris ahead of next week's global AI summit.

Over the past decades, computer scientists have created increasingly advanced artificial intelligence (AI) models, some of which can perform similarly to humans on specific tasks. The extent to which these models truly "think" and analyze information like humans, however, is still a heated topic of discussion.

Skoltech and MIPT researchers have sped up the search for high-performance metal alloys for the aerospace industry, mechanical engineering, and electronics. The team's machine learning-driven approach serves as a fast-track way to select promising alloy compositions for experimenters to test in labs.

Artificial intelligence (AI) systems must come with "cast-iron guarantees" against mass harm to humans, especially as the likelihood of their integration into weapons grows, a leading expert has told AFP.

South Korean ministries and police said Thursday they were blocking DeepSeek's access to their computers, after the Chinese AI startup did not respond to a data watchdog request about how it manages user information.

Global experts began debating the threats and promise of artificial intelligence (AI) at a gathering in Paris on Thursday and Friday, ahead of a summit of world leaders on the fast-moving technology.

On Monday January 27, a little known Chinese start-up called DeepSeek sent shockwaves and panic through Silicon Valley and the global stock market with the launch of their generative artificial intelligence(AI) model that rivals the models of tech giants like OpenAI, Meta and Google. It's AI assistant became the no. 1 downloaded app in the U.S., surprising an industry that assumed only big Western companies could dominate AI.

Generative AI tools like ChatGPT, DeepSeek, Google's Gemini and Microsoft's Copilot are transforming industries at a rapid pace. However, as these large language models become less expensive and more widely used for critical decision-making, their built-in biases can distort outcomes and erode public trust.

Until a few weeks ago, few people in the Western world had heard of a small Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) company known as DeepSeek. But on January 20, it captured global attention when it released a new AI model called R1.

The AI revolution is well underway and two companies—DeepSeek and Nvidia—stand out among those competing to lead it. Outside the financial world, the story might seem distant—but it really does have consequences for everyone. It comes down to why investors are paying so much attention to AI, and how this competition could affect the technology we use daily.

China's new DeepSeek large language model (LLM) has disrupted the US-dominated market, offering a relatively high-performance chatbot model at significantly lower cost.

Researchers at FORTH have developed a new type of artificial neural network (ANN) that incorporates features of biological dendrites. This innovative design allows for accurate and robust image recognition while using significantly fewer parameters, paving the way for more compact and energy-efficient AI systems.

The Super Bowl, which will be broadcast on Feb. 9, and will feature the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles, is much more than just a major sporting event. It's a way for advertisers to showcase cars, consumer goods, and more during the highly anticipated commercials. This year, artificial intelligence may play more of a role than we anticipate.

A large team of computer engineers and security specialists at AI app maker Anthropic has developed a new security system aimed at preventing chatbot jailbreaks. Their paper is published on the arXiv preprint server.

India's technology minister said Wednesday that OpenAI chief Sam Altman was "willing to collaborate" with the world's most populous country in its bid to develop its own cut-price AI systems.

Google on Tuesday updated its principles when it comes to artificial intelligence, removing vows not to use the technology for weapons or surveillance.

Australia has banned DeepSeek from all government devices on the advice of security agencies, a top official said Wednesday, citing privacy and malware risks posed by China's breakout AI program.

Mass surveillance, detecting emotions, social scoring: EU regulators laid out Tuesday what types of artificial intelligence tools are to be outlawed as too dangerous under the bloc's pioneering AI Act.

Countries and economic blocs around the world are at different stages of regulating artificial intelligence, from a relative "Wild West" in the United States to highly complex rules in the European Union.

OpenAI chief Sam Altman signed a deal with tech giant Kakao in South Korea on Tuesday as the US firm seeks new alliances after Chinese rival DeepSeek shook the global AI industry.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere—from the chatbots we consult for customer support to tools predicting how diseases might spread. But the computing power and energy required to power modern AI models—such as large language models (LLMs)—can make them expensive, inaccessible and environmentally taxing. A team of researchers at Rice University is working on solutions to change that.

The UK government's new plan to foster innovation through artificial intelligence (AI) is ambitious. Its goals rely on the better use of public data, including renewed efforts to maximize the value of health data held by the NHS. Yet this could involve the use of real data from patients using the NHS. This has been highly controversial in the past and previous attempts to use this health data have been at times close to disastrous.

A fresh University of Bristol study has uncovered significant safety risks associated with new ChatGPT rival DeepSeek.
