A team of scientists at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) has developed grain-sized soft robots that can be controlled using magnetic fields for targeted drug delivery, paving the way to possible improved therapies in future. The new soft robot developed by engineers at NTU’s School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (MAE) was reported in a paper published in the scientific journal Advanced Materials. The study is believed to be the first reported instance of miniature robots that can transport up to four different drugs and release them in reprogrammable orders and doses. Compared to earlier small-scale robots which can…

6 Contact Center Trends That Don’t Involve AI (+2 That Do)

stp2y0 CommentsGenAI

Many business sectors have bought AI services without having a legitimate use for them — some are still struggling to know exactly what to do with these novel tools. That’s not the case with your industry, though. AI is just one of many contact center trends that are shaping the way things work. Because AI gets so much airtime, I’d like to zoom out and focus on the full picture to give you a wider view of the changes happening all around. 1. Robocalls are not slowing down The vast majority of Americans don’t answer calls from numbers they don’t…

By applying an electric field, the movement of microswimmers can be manipulated. Scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization (MPI-DS), the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Hyderabad and the University of Twente, Netherlands, describe the underlying physical principles by comparing experiments and theoretical modeling predictions. They are able to tune the direction and mode of motion through a microchannel between oscillation, wall adherence and centerline orientation, enabling different interactions with the environment. Microswimmers often need to independently navigate narrow environments like microchannels through porous media or blood vessels. The swimmers can be of biological origin, like algae…

Best AI Security Tools: Top Solutions, Features & Comparisons

stp2y0 CommentsGenAI

Generative AI features in enterprise software can be double-edged swords. AI introduces complexities and its own security issues. At the same time, it can speed up processes and enable new capabilities. The tools we’ve chosen here were often highly rated platforms before generative AI entered the scene, and we’ve rated them in part on longevity and positive reviews over time. Where AI features are major selling points for the products, we’ve examined them based on integration, ease of use, and their potential to unlock new areas of value within security solutions. We focused on security solutions incorporating AI rather than…

Not all AI tools are the generate-from-scratch types like Google’s MusicFX, Suno, and Udio that independent creators like Hatcher use—there are also ones for extracting stems, for mixing and mastering, and for brainstorming lyrics, all of which are finding user bases amongst hobbyists as well as professional producers. Sam Hollander, a pop hitmaker who has worked with Panic! at the Disco and Flava Flav, compares AI to the explosion of drum machines in the ’80s, and how session drummers had to adapt and learn programming if they wanted to continue to work.Giving a typical example of where AI fits into…

StarTree eyes observability market with Apache Pinot-based real-time engine – SiliconANGLE

stp2y0 CommentsGenAIPaul Gillin, SiliconANGLE, StarTree eyes observability market with Apache Pinot-based real-time engine

StarTree Inc., a company that’s commercializing the open-source Apache Pinot real-time data analytics platform, is setting its sights on the market for observability tools, saying it’s a ripe target for disruption. Last week the company demonstrated how its StarTree Cloud, a managed Pinot service, can now be used as a time-series database compatible with the open-source Prometheus monitoring and alerting toolkit to drive real-time observability dashboards using the open-source Grafana visualization engine. StarTree said it can address the query and storage components of the observability stack at a much lower cost by using open-source technology. Observability is a discipline and…
