Generative AI ‘fools’ scientists with artificial data, bringing automated data analysis closer

Posted by in categories: materials, robotics/AI

The same AI technology used to mimic human art can now synthesize artificial scientific data, advancing efforts toward fully automated data analysis.

Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have developed an AI that generates artificial data from microscopy experiments commonly used to characterize atomic-level material structures. Drawing from the technology underlying art generators, the AI allows the researchers to incorporate and experimental imperfections into the generated data, allowing material features to be detected much faster and more efficiently than before.

The study, “Leveraging generative adversarial networks to create realistic scanning transmission electron microscopy images,” was published in the journal npj Computational Materials.

PPP fraud is ‘worst in history’: $200B stolen and blown on Lamborghinis, beach houses and bling

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, robotics/AI

When people say there s no money for advanced AI research, robotics research, energy research, etc… etc… take a close look at who was rollin in money and buyin below items.


“The fraud was so easy to commit. All of the information was self-reported and none of it was verified or checked,” Haywood Talcove of LexisNexis Risk Solutions told The Post.

“During the height of the pandemic, it was really hard to purchase [luxury] items like a Rolls-Royce, or a high-end Mercedes because you had people walking in with cash from the PPP program to purchase those items for whatever the dealer was asking,” Talcove said.

MIT’s “FrameDiff” — Generative AI Imagines New Protein Structures That Could Transform Medicine

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, robotics/AI

To advance our capabilities in protein engineering, MIT CSAIL researchers came up with “FrameDiff,” a computational tool for creating new protein structures beyond what nature has produced. The machine learning approach generates “frames” that align with the inherent properties of protein structures, enabling it to construct novel proteins independently of preexisting designs, facilitating unprecedented protein structures.

“In nature, protein design is a slow-burning process that takes millions of years. Our technique aims to provide an answer to tackling human-made problems that evolve much faster than nature’s pace,” says MIT CSAIL PhD student Jason Yim, a lead author on a new paper about the work. “The aim, with respect to this new capacity of generating synthetic protein structures, opens up a myriad of enhanced capabilities, such as better binders. This means engineering proteins that can attach to other molecules more efficiently and selectively, with widespread implications related to targeted drug delivery and biotechnology, where it could result in the development of better biosensors. It could also have implications for the field of biomedicine and beyond, offering possibilities such as developing more efficient photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis is how plants and some microorganisms use sunlight to synthesize carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water.

Will Superintelligent AI End the World? | Eliezer Yudkowsky | TED

Posted by in categories: business, existential risks, robotics/AI

Decision theorist Eliezer Yudkowsky has a simple message: superintelligent AI could probably kill us all. So the question becomes: Is it possible to build powerful artificial minds that are obedient, even benevolent? In a fiery talk, Yudkowsky explores why we need to act immediately to ensure smarter-than-human AI systems don’t lead to our extinction.
