Researchers from Tohoku University and Kyoto University have successfully developed a DNA-based molecular controller that autonomously directs the assembly and disassembly of molecular robots. This pioneering technology marks a significant step towards advanced autonomous molecular systems with potential applications in medicine and nanotechnology. "Our newly developed molecular controller, composed of artificially designed DNA molecules and enzymes, coexists with molecular robots and controls them by outputting specific DNA molecules," points out Shin-ichiro M. Nomura, an associate professor at Tohoku University's Graduate School of Engineering and co-author of the study. "This allows the molecular robots to self-assemble and disassemble automatically, without the…

Microsoft Delays Recall Launch, Seeking Community Feedback First

stp2y0 CommentsGenAI

Microsoft’s Recall feature, the AI-enabled timeline for Windows 11 on Copilot+ PCs, will be available only to members of the Windows Insider Program in June, instead of the initial planned public preview slated for June 18. This change follows Microsoft’s decision last week to make Recall opt-in instead of enabled by default. Other users will have access to Recall “soon,” after the Redmond giant has had time to respond to feedback from the Windows Insider preview. Recall takes snapshots of a user’s activity on their Copilot+ PC, enabling generative AI to trawl through all of that activity to answer questions…

Free Form Least-Squares Concept Erasure Without Oracle Concept Labels

stp2y0 CommentsGenAI

This post assumes some familiarity with the idea of concept erasure and our LEACE concept erasure method. We encourage the reader to consult our arXiv paper for background. In our paper LEACE: Perfect linear concept erasure in closed form, we derived a concept erasure method that is least squares optimal within the class of affine transformations. We now extend this result by deriving the least squares optimal edit only under the restriction that the edited representation is a function of the unedited representation. In a previous blog post, we solved this problem in the case where the transformation may depend…

New technique improves AI ability to map 3D space with 2D cameras

stp2y0 CommentsGenAIVehicles; Automotive and Transportation; Optics; Technology; Artificial Intelligence; Photography; Communications; Computer Modeling

Researchers have developed a technique that allows artificial intelligence (AI) programs to better map three-dimensional spaces using two-dimensional images captured by multiple cameras. Because the technique works effectively with limited computational resources, it holds promise for improving the navigation of autonomous vehicles. "Most autonomous vehicles use powerful AI programs called vision transformers to take 2D images from multiple cameras and create a representation of the 3D space around the vehicle," says Tianfu Wu, corresponding author of a paper on the work and an associate professor of electrical and computer engineering at North Carolina State University. "However, while each of these…
