Apple has been a dominating force in the technology industry for years, with its iPhone setting the bar high for smartphones. The company is now entering a new era with the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) technology into its devices, starting with the highly anticipated iPhone 16. This shift is expected to revolutionize the industry
As the Australian government releases voluntary artificial intelligence (AI) safety standards, the central message from federal Minister for Industry and Science, Ed Husic, emphasizes the need to build trust in AI technology. However, the question remains: why is trust in AI crucial, and why should there be a push for more people to use it?
Semiconducting materials have long been integral to the development of electronic components, with two-dimensional (2D) materials emerging as a new frontier in this field. These materials offer unique optoelectronic properties that could revolutionize the design of ultra-thin and tunable electronic devices. However, despite their potential advantages, interfacing 2D materials with gate dielectrics has posed challenges,
As the world grapples with the urgent need to address climate change, the role of heat pumps in significantly reducing carbon emissions cannot be understated. Despite being a relatively obscure technology in the United States, heat pumps are gaining momentum as a cost-effective and efficient alternative to traditional heating and cooling systems. While initiatives like
After a recent engine fire on a Cathay Pacific flight, Europe’s aviation safety agency announced that inspections will be required for a portion of the fleet of Airbus A350 wide-body jets. The incident, which prompted the grounding of 48 planes by Cathay Pacific, has raised concerns about the safety of the A350 aircraft. The European
Recent research has introduced an innovative method to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of dynamic emotion recognition through the utilization of a convolutional neural network (CNN) for facial analysis. This pioneering work, spearheaded by Lanbo Xu from Northeastern University in Shenyang, China, opens up a plethora of possibilities for various fields such as mental health,
Fuel cells have long been considered a promising energy-conversion solution that can generate electricity without the harmful emissions associated with combustion. However, the widespread adoption of fuel cells has been hindered by the expensive materials and precious metal catalysts traditionally used in their design. Recently, researchers from Chongqing University and Loughborough University have made a
The trial of former Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn is set to begin, nearly a decade after the ‘dieselgate’ scandal rocked the German auto giant. Winterkorn faces charges related to his involvement in installing software to manipulate emissions levels in millions of vehicles globally. Volkswagen admitted to the use of defeat devices in 2015, leading to
The landscape of public transportation is on the brink of a major shake-up, with researchers from Concordia University proposing a revolutionary new approach to suburban commuting. In a recent publication in the Transportation Research Record, a group of researchers introduced the concept of On-Demand Transit (ODT) as a viable alternative to traditional bus routes. This
