Intelligence

Organoid intelligence (OI) is an emerging scientific field that seeks to create biocomputers by utilizing lab-grown brain organoids as “biological hardware.”Johns Hopkins researchers break ground on new field of ‘organoid intelligence’.According to researchers at Johns Hopkins University, a “biocomputer” powered by human brain cells could be developed within our lifetime. This technology is expected to exponentially expand the capabilities of modern computing and open up new areas of research.The team’s plan for “organoid…

By Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe March 24, 2023Figure 1. A schematic illustration of the first star’s supernovae and observed spectra of extremely metal-poor stars. Ejecta from the supernovae enrich pristine hydrogen and helium gas with heavy elements in the universe (cyan, green, and purple objects surrounded by clouds of ejected material). If the first stars are born as a multiple stellar system rather than as an isolated single star, elements ejected by the supernovae are mixed…

While it demonstrates an obvious relationship, the literature is still in the nascent stage and so precludes solid conclusions. …

Please brace yourself for Mozart-level brilliance. Parshall: As you can hear, I was a lyrical genius. And I did stick with it. In high school I made a song entirely with homemade instruments that involved water, including hitting half-full wine glasses with chopsticks and water drumming—you know, when you get in the bathtub in a swimsuit and have your…

A five-hour meeting on February 13 resulted in no resolution and lawmakers are at loggerheads over various facets of the Act (Illustration: Rahul Awasthi)Rapid technological advances such as the ChatGPT generative artificial intelligence (AI) app are complicating efforts by European Union lawmakers to agree on landmark AI laws, sources with direct knowledge of the matter told Reuters. The European Commission proposed the draft rules nearly two years ago in a bid to protect citizens from the dangers of the emerging…

Allison Parshall: This is Scientific American’s Science, Quickly. I’m Allison Parshall. I’m going to play you a song. And I’m willing to bet good money that you’ve never heard anything like it before. Parshall: So listening to this for the first time, I was intrigued and also baffled. I was bopping my head to a beat that sounded pretty familiar, but those notes didn’t sound familiar at all. Are those notes that I could even play if I sat down at my piano?   And the melody—I’m not even sure what instrument sounds…

Earlier this month, a few unreleased songs from Lil Uzi Vert and Juice WRLD went viral on Twitter.At first glance, this seemed fairly normal. Rap songs leak all the time, after all. But this time, something was different. These songs weren’t entirely human: They were created with the help of artificial intelligence. Fans had taken low-quality snippets they found on the internet and used AI technology to turn them into full songs with much higher audio quality.Naturally, the internet is divided about this. The comments…

 We are about to witness the birth of a new kind of religion. In the next few years, or perhaps even months, we will see the emergence of sects devoted to the worship of artificial intelligence (AI). The latest generation of AI-powered chatbots, trained on large language models, have left their early users awestruck — and sometimes terrified — by their power. These are the same sublime emotions that lie at the heart of our experience of the divine. People already seek religious meaning from very…

The rise of artificial general intelligence - now seen as inevitable in Silicon Valley - will bring change that is "orders of magnitude" greater than anything the world has yet seen, observers say. But are we ready?AGI - defined as artificial intelligence with human cognitive abilities, as opposed to more narrow artificial intelligence, such as the headline-grabbing ChatGPT - could free people from menial tasks and usher in a new era of creativity.But such a historic paradigm shift could also threaten jobs and raise…

The future of Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays an essential part in our daily existence The future of Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays an essential part in our daily existence and implementing social Intelligence is the next move toward the future of AI. Artificial intelligence is a discipline that uses computer science and large datasets to solve problems. It also includes the subfields of machine learning and deep learning, which are commonly discussed in the context of artificial intelligence. AI algorithms are…
