Executive Order on the Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence | The White House
Executive Order on the Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence | The White House
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered as follows:      Section 1.  Purpose.  Artificial intelligence (AI) holds extraordinary potential for both promise and peril.  Responsible AI use has the potential to help solve urgent challenges…

New Breakthrough in Energy Storage – MIT Engineers Create Supercapacitor out of Ancient Materials
New Breakthrough in Energy Storage – MIT Engineers Create Supercapacitor out of Ancient Materials
Constructed from cement, carbon black, and water, the device holds the potential to offer affordable and scalable energy storage for renewable energy sources. Two of humanity's most ubiquitous historical materials, cement and carbon black (which resembles very fine charcoal), may form the basis for
The water naturally forms a branching network of openings within the structure as it reacts with cement, and the carbon migrates into these spaces to make wire-like structures within the hardened cement.
fractal-like structure, with larger branches sprouting smaller branches, and those sprouting even smaller branchlets
existing batteries are too expensive and mostly rely on materials such as lithium, whose supply is limited,
nanocarbon-black-doped concrete
upercapacitors can be charged and discharged much more rapidly than batteries
Since the concrete would retain its strength, a house with a foundation made of this material could store a day’s worth of energy produced by solar panels or windmills
working up to a 45-cubic-meter version to demonstrate its ability to store a house-worth of power.

Hey designers, they’re gaslighting you.
Hey designers, they’re gaslighting you.
“Prove your value.” “Justify your presence.” “Demonstrate impact.” Too many organizations have convinced designers that they’re the…
The roadshows aren’t working. The presentations and the decks just do not work. Our hypothesis is that showing up in the work consistently, as a discipline — and being very loud about our work — is probably the best way for us to show the value of our work.
Hey designers, they’re gaslighting you.

Turning movie shots into 3D scenes using 3D Gaussian Splatting. We found movie clips online, converted scenes to image sequences, trained their GSPLATS, and brought them to UNREAL ENGINE 5. 3D Gaussian Splatting for Real-Time Radiance Field Rendering Paper: https://repo-sam.inria.fr/fungraph/3d-gaussian-splatting/ Join our discord server: https://discord.gg/fUTyYnvceB If you wanna see us to do cool things follow us here too: Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/badxstudio/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/badxstudio TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@badxstudio LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/badxstudio Bad Decisions Podcast 🎙️: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/badxstudio Our personal handles: (if you wanna stalk us) https://www.instagram.com/farhad_sh/ https://www.instagram.com/farazshababs/ https://twitter.com/Farhads__ https://twitter.com/farazshababi https://www.linkedin.com/in/farhadshababi/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/farazshababi/ #unrealengine5 #3dgaussiansplatting #3dscan #gaussiansplatting #3d #3drender #nerf #unrealengine #blender3d #blender #drone #ai #photogrammetry #vfx #cgi #film

Researchers Propose a Fourth Light on Traffic Signals – For Self-Driving Cars
Researchers Propose a Fourth Light on Traffic Signals – For Self-Driving Cars
The new light would enable autonomous vehicles to help control traffic flow – and let human drivers know what’s going on.
This concept we’re proposing for traffic intersections, which we call a ‘white phase,’ taps into the computing power of autonomous vehicles (AVs) themselves,
possible for AVs to communicate wirelessly with both each other and the computer controlling the traffic signal

The living things that feast on plastic
The living things that feast on plastic
Scientists are scouring garbage sites around the world for bacteria, fungi and even insects that harbor enzymes that could be harnessed for breaking down various polymers. It’s early days, but if the efforts can be efficiently scaled-up, such biological recycling could put a dent in the plastic waste problem.
