The AI breakthrough that uses almost no power to create images
Unlike conventional AI, which relies on millions of computer calculations, this process uses light to do all the heavy lifting. Consequently, the system uses almost no power. "Our optical generative models can synthesize countless images with almost no computing power, offering a scalable and energy-efficient alternative to digital AI models," said Shiqi Chen, lead author.

AI stethoscope could detect heart conditions in seconds
Stethoscopes powered by artificial intelligence (AI) could help detect three different heart conditions in seconds, researchers say.
The original stethoscope, invented in 1816, allows doctors to listen to the internal sounds of a patient's body.
A British team conducted a study using a modern version and say they found it can spot heart failure, heart valve disease and abnormal heart rhythms almost instantly.
The tool could be a "real game-changer" resulting in patients being treated sooner, the researchers say - with plans to roll the device out across the UK following a study involving 205 GP surgeries in west and north-west London.
AI in healthcare: what are the risks for the NHS? The device replaces the traditional chest piece with a device around the size of a playing card. It uses a microphone to analyse subtle differences in heartbeat and blood flow that the human ear cannot detect.
It takes an ECG (electrocardiogram), recording electrical signals from the heart, and sends the information to the cloud to be analysed by AI trained on data from tens of thousands of patients.
The study by Imperial College London and Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust saw more than 12,000 patients from 96 surgeries examined with AI stethoscopes manufactured by US firm Eko Health. They were then compared to patients from 109 GP surgeries where the technology was not used.
Those with heart failure were 2.33 times more likely to have it detected within 12 months when examined with the AI stethoscope, researchers said.

MIT researchers develop AI tool to improve flu vaccine strain selection
VaxSeer, an AI system that predicts dominant influenza strains and recommends vaccine compositions months in advance. The open-access study detailing the tool appears in Nature Medicine. In a 10-year retrospective analysis, VaxSeer’s picks outperformed the World Health Organization’s selections in nine of ten A/H3N2 seasons and matched or beat them in six of ten A/H1N1 seasons. Its predicted coverage scores also aligned with vaccine effectiveness data from the CDC, Canada’s Sentinel network, and Europe’s I-MOVE program.
