‘Revolutionary’ AI Uncovers Hidden Risks of Heart Attacks

Data from the British Heart Foundation estimates that roughly 7.6 million individuals in the United Kingdom are living with heart disease. Now scientists have designed an artificial intelligence model that can spot inflammation in the heart, making it easier to identify those at risk of a cardiac arrest. The focus on inflammation is based on research which has determined that increased inflammation is associated with a heightened risk of fatal heart attacks and cardiovascular disease. The model was developed by Caristo Diagnostics, a startup company under Oxford University. Scientists are conducting a pilot study at five hospital trusts in Leicester,…

US Courts Face Puzzle as Music Labels Sue Over AI

Udio, an artificial intelligence (AI) music website, seems to be imitating songs written and produced by actual people, flouting the rights of artists globally. This shows how music generated by artificial intelligence is not based on its own creativity but rather by “stealing” the labor and creativity of others. This explains why earlier this year, artists such as Stevie Wonder, Nicki Minaj, Billie Eilish and Tift Merritt, among others, penned a letter warning that music generated by artificial intelligence trained on their own works could sideline artists and destroy creativity. The use of artificial intelligence in this way has big…

OpenAI Starts Testing SearchGPT, the Latest AI Innovation

OpenAI recently announced that it had begun tests on its new search engine, which uses generative artificial intelligence (AI) to produce results. The American artificial intelligence research organization was behind the launch of ChatGPT, the now famous chatbot and virtual assistant launched about two years ago. The company revealed last week that SearchGPT would be rolled out to a small group of publishers and users before being launched to a wider market. The company plans to incorporate the search features into its chatbot, instead of launching a standalone product. In its statement, OpenAI explained that its search engine was a…

How AI Can Facilitate the Energy Transition Without Standing in the Way

According to ChatGPT, the energy consumed by artificial-intelligence (AI) systems varies depending on their usage and complexity. Generally, these systems need huge amounts of electricity to efficiently process and analyze data. Estimates show that for this response generated by the chatbot, almost 10 times the electricity a Google search needs was used. With 100 million ChatGPT users weekly, the extra demand for energy has increased greatly. Keep in mind that this applies to users on this platform alone. The increased demand for energy in this industry, primarily driven by the construction and running of data centers that operate and train…

AI Approach Accelerates Speed of Predicting the Thermal Properties of Materials

Estimates show that roughly 70% of energy generated around the globe is wasted. Experts believe that more efficient systems to generate power could be designed if researchers were able to forecast how heat passes through insulators and semiconductors. This is hard to do at the moment, however, because it is challenging to model the thermal properties of different materials. The issue stems from subatomic particles that carry heat, known as phonons. A group of MIT researchers have designed a new framework based on machine-learning, which can forecast phonon dispersion relation about 1,000 times faster than other methods based on artificial…
