Today’s U.S. electrical grid, among the largest, most complex systems ever built, is operating at its limit. The combination of rapid industrial growth, more frequent extreme weather, and a record surge in electricity use has pushed the grid to its breaking point, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Built decades ago for a more predictable world in which power came mostly from centralized coal or gas plants and electricity use grew at a steady pace, the grid faces unanticipated strain du…

This May, 37 researchers from roughly two dozen top universities and tech companies published a paper on ArXiv, arguing that scientists should stop writing papers. Why? Because artificial intelligence needs a different format, and AI’s needs, they say, should be the priority. “AI agents are becoming first-class participants in research workflows, not tools that assist humans but autonomous contributors that read, reproduce, and extend scientific work. That transition demands infrastructure built…

Pantera Capital led the first close which also included Bain Capital Crypto, Eightco Holdings (NASDAQ: ORBS), Selini Capital, Susquehanna Crypto, and additional investors. Demonstrating investors’ long-term commitment to World’scontinued growth and utility, all […]

SpaceX has said it will remove unpermitted gas turbines powering xAI’s Colossus data centers near Memphis as it transitions to a permanent 1.2 gigawatt natural gas power plant, with full removal not expected until July 2027. The company is currently operating 69 gas turbines to run the facilities, some of which have been in use […]

By Emmet Cole With the explosion of robotics research, staying current in fields like Learning from Demonstration (LfD) is a monumental challenge. Is AI the solution to the “paper deluge,” or is it part of the problem? Read the article preview below to learn more! Download the full paper: Surviving the Paper Deluge. Authors: Aude […]

Unlike autonomous driving or industrial robotics, healthcare robotics can’t rely on internet-scale data collection or unlimited real-world experimentation.... Unlike autonomous driving or industrial robotics, healthcare robotics can’t rely on internet-scale data collection or unlimited real-world experimentation. Every demonstration requires specialized equipment, clinical expertise, and access to patients or laboratory environments. This creates three fundamental challenges for developers. Firs…

An overview of how mode-agile threats challenge static library radar/EW systems, and how AI/ML cognitive architectures enable adaptive, real-time countermeasures. What Attendees will Learn Why mode-agile threats render static library systems ineffective — Explore how wartime reserve modes and mode-agile emitters deploy unexpected frequencies, modulation techniques, and hopping schemes that cannot be matched against traditional threat databases, leaving legacy electronic protect, attack, and supp…

Modern chip design is increasingly limited by engineering time. Register transfer level (RTL) development and verification require specialized hardware knowledge, precise reasoning, and repeated interaction with electronic design automation (EDA) tools. LLMs have accelerated code generation, and AI agents extend their impact by using verificat…

Atop a lab bench, Cornell Tech postdoctoral researcher Yifan He positions the lens of an optical receiver almost a meter away from an LED emitting a beam of red light. The computer monitor attached to the receiver takes a beat to refresh, then displays an array of squares that resemble a QR code. When you hold your phone camera up to a QR code, light strikes the image sensor as only a first step to revealing the data hidden behind the black-and-white matrix. The receiver here is doing something …

Frontier model pre-training has converged on mixture of experts (MoE), which is fundamentally changing what limits large-scale AI training. As compute per token falls, communication increasingly determines how efficiently models scale across thousands of GPUs. NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 set a world record for pre-training DeepSeek-V3 671B at …

Imagine you want to teach a robot to push an object on a table. The standard recipe in robot learning is to collect hundreds of expert demonstrations on a real robot, train an imitation learning policy on that data, and then evaluate the policy by running it many times on the same real robot. Both […]

There are many words that I would never, ever use to describe a drone. Stealthy. Subtle. Whatever the opposite of obnoxious is. Much of this is because of the giant angry bee sound that drones tend to make, but it’s also the way that they look in flight: With uncannily linear movements and an even less canny ability to hover perfectly still, they tend to draw the eye as affronts to nature. In a paper presented this week at Robotics Science and Systems 2026 in Sydney, roboticists from Northwester…

Developers building video analytics applications across large spaces must track the same object as it moves between camera views. Single-camera 2D tracking... Developers building video analytics applications across large spaces must track the same object as it moves between camera views. Single-camera 2D tracking lacks reliable depth information and typically loses track of the object when it leaves the frame, limiting applications such as warehouse safety, retail analytics, and smart-building m…
