Apple has been a dominant player in the smartphone industry for years, with the iPhone being one of the most popular and widely used devices in the world. However, with the upcoming release of the iPhone 16, Apple is set to make a groundbreaking shift into artificial intelligence. This move is expected to revolutionize the
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a rapidly growing technology with the potential to revolutionize various industries. The Australian government has recently released voluntary safety standards for AI, emphasizing the importance of building trust in this advanced technology. However, the question remains, why do people need to trust AI, especially when it is riddled with errors
Two-dimensional (2D) semiconducting materials have shown promise in the field of optoelectronics, offering unique properties that could revolutionize the development of ultra-thin and tunable electronic components. However, one major challenge has been the effective interfacing of these materials with gate dielectrics, which often leads to the degradation of transistor performance due to interfacial traps. The
One of the key components of the United States’ multi-billion dollar push towards greater home electrification is the installation of heat pumps. While not as flashy as electric cars or as visible as solar panels, heat pumps are an energy-efficient system that replaces both a heater and air conditioner in one appliance. Their importance lies
When it comes to air travel, safety is of utmost importance. The recent incident involving an engine fire on a Cathay Pacific Airbus A350 has raised concerns and highlighted the need for thorough inspections of aircraft engines. Europe’s aviation safety agency, EASA, has mandated inspections of a specific part of the Airbus A350 fleet, following
The field of emotion recognition is undergoing a transformation with the introduction of a new method that promises to enhance accuracy and speed. Lanbo Xu, from Northeastern University in Shenyang, China, has conducted groundbreaking research utilizing a convolutional neural network (CNN) to analyze facial expressions in real-time video sequences. This breakthrough approach could have far-reaching
Fuel cells are innovative energy conversion solutions that have the potential to revolutionize the way we generate electricity. Unlike traditional combustion-based methods, fuel cells operate through electrochemical reactions, offering a cleaner and more sustainable alternative that does not contribute to air pollution on Earth. These cells have a wide range of applications, from powering electric
Public transit has long been plagued by issues such as slow, unreliable, and inefficient bus routes, especially in suburban and exurban areas. However, a group of researchers at Concordia University has proposed a groundbreaking solution in the form of On-Demand Transit (ODT). This innovative system replaces traditional buses with a fleet of passenger vans that
The infamous “dieselgate” scandal has resurfaced with the former Volkswagen CEO, Martin Winterkorn, set to go on trial after nine long years since the crisis initially unfolded. This scandal rocked the German auto giant to its core when VW admitted in 2015 that it had manipulated emissions levels through software installed in millions of vehicles
