ATLANTA — Using AI applications to create obscene, computer-generated images of real people could soon become a serious crime in Georgia. State senators on Monday considered a proposal to create the crime of “virtual staring” by using artificial intelligence to virtually undress people. The technology would have been considered science fiction several years ago, but…
Speaking in Davos, Huang argued that investments in AI strengthen employment by reorienting work from tasks to purpose, particularly in healthcare, manufacturing and digital services. AI evolves into a fundamental economic system rather than a standalone technology, according to NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang, who described AI as a five-layer infrastructure spanning energy, hardware, data centers,…
OpenAI will integrate 750 megawatts of ultra-low latency computing from the chipmaker Cerebral to accelerate the response time of its artificial intelligence (AI) models. The capacity resulting from the agreement will be put into service in several stages, starting this year and lasting until 2028, according to press releases issued by the companies on Wednesday…
This is a fairly common scenario in many synthesis labs: you know what raw material you have, and you know what product you need, but you don’t enough what reaction conditions will get you there. Unless you’re lucky enough to know someone with deep expertise in the best reaction for the job, you’ll likely spend…
Many people, including children, use AI chatbots instead of professional advice. (Image: Cheryl Murfin) Not long ago, when a child was having emotional difficulties, the adults around them worried about who they were talking to at school, online, or late at night on the phone. Now there is a new, quieter concern: who – or…
In the days leading up to its fourth-quarter 2025 financial results, GoDaddy was expected to post earnings of US$1.58 per diluted share, while investors also weighed its decision to exit the .CO domain registry amid growing AI-driven competition. Along with these financial expectations, GoDaddy’s internal focus on longtime talent and evolving AI-driven development practices shows…
Heterogeneous computing is quietly redefining how AI appears in everyday devices, bringing intelligence closer to where people actually use it rather than keeping it locked in remote cloud systems. As AI expands into physical products, success depends less on raw performance and more on how efficiently CPUs, GPUs, and NPUs work together. Heterogeneous computing manifests…
As AI systems integrate into business processes, organizations face growing AI governance, risk, and compliance needs. In our prior research, we tested AI risks in practice with an AI bias benchmark, finding persistent bias around race, gender, and socioeconomic assumptions in several models. These findings underscore the importance of AI GRC tools, which help continuously…
While concerns about the deployment of artificial intelligence are still active and current, including issues of plagiarism and a reduction in critical thinking, the growing threat posed by AI companions – AI chatbots designed to simulate friendship, emotional support, and, in some cases, romantic relationships with users – has quietly moved into the pockets of…
Artificial intelligence (AI) is also entering the race 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan Cortina, Italy, which runs through February 22, bringing a layer of artificial intelligence to an event long defined as a showcase of human performance. From athlete training and broadcast production to fan engagement and judging, AI systems are increasingly integrated into the…
