The introduction of “AI Overviews” in Google Search has sparked an uproar among users due to the inaccurate and nonsensical results it has been providing. While the intention behind this feature is to display quick summaries of answers to search queries at the top of the results page, the execution has been far from flawless.

The landscape of artificial intelligence (AI) is constantly evolving, with researchers striving to create more efficient and accessible models. The release of ChatGPT in November 2023 marked a significant milestone in AI development, but the model’s initial size required cloud access. However, recent advancements have led to the creation of smaller, more efficient AI models
Meta, formerly known as Facebook, is aggressively pursuing a leadership position in the field of generative artificial intelligence (AI). The company is pouring billions of dollars into AI hardware and development, and integrating new AI features into all of its apps. One such app is WhatsApp, the world’s most popular messaging platform, known for its
The controversy surrounding OpenAI’s voice imitation project has raised significant legal questions. While some experts argue that there is a distinction between imitation and simply recording in the style of someone else, others believe that the superficial similarity between the simulated voice and the original actor may not amount to a clear-cut case of impersonation.
Glass, a material that we often take for granted in our everyday lives, has unique properties and structures that make it an interesting subject of study. Scientists have been conducting experiments on glass in space to explore the potential for new discoveries and innovations in material science. These experiments have opened up new possibilities for
Volvo recently unveiled its first “production-ready” self-driving truck, a result of their collaboration with Aurora, an autonomous driving technology company founded by former Google, Uber, and Tesla executives. The truck, based on Volvo’s new VNL Class 8 semi truck, is equipped with a range of sensors and cameras to power Aurora’s Level 4 autonomous driving
In a groundbreaking discovery, scientists have found that a single atomic defect in a layered 2D material has the ability to retain quantum information for microseconds at room temperature. This revelation highlights the immense potential of 2D materials in advancing quantum technologies. Researchers from the Universities of Manchester and Cambridge made this significant breakthrough using
The British government has taken a significant step in expanding its AI safety efforts by opening a U.S. counterpart to its AI Safety Institute. This move aims to strengthen its global presence in the tech sector and foster collaboration with the United States. The decision to establish a branch of the institute in San Francisco
In the ever-evolving field of electronics engineering, researchers are constantly seeking to develop innovative transistors that can be scaled down to smaller sizes. Traditional silicon-based field effect transistors (FETs) have their limitations, which has led to the exploration of alternative materials with higher electron mobility. Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have emerged as one of the
In the bustling city of Ajmer, a local politician named Shakti Singh Rathore nervously attempted to shoot a video in front of a greenscreen. This marked his first experience with being cloned through AI technology. The backdrop of the video shoot featured Rathore donning a crisp white shirt and a ceremonial saffron scarf, bearing the
