A new drug therapy for breast cancer helped stop tumors from growing for twice as long as traditional chemotherapy, adding months to patients’ lives.
UK scientists have designed a new type of aqueous organic redox flow battery based on ion-exchange membranes made of a polymer of intrinsic microporosity. The battery showed a very low-capacity decay rate of 0.0335% per day for 2,100 charge-discharge cycles.
A team of researchers at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, working with one colleague from MIT and another from the University of Stuttgart, has developed a biomimetic elastomeric robot skin that has tactile sensing abilities. Their work has been published in the journal Science Robotics.
Roboticists continue to work on improving robot abilities and to make them more human-like. In this new effort, the researchers gave a robot arm the ability to detect such sensations as a pat, tickling, wind, or something stroking its surface. They accomplished this by partially imitating human skin.

To capture the information that a brain contains, you need to cut it into billions and billions of slices.
Žilvinas DeveikaIt’s much sooner than that. My prediction (that is almost 10 years old now) of an “early” appearance of a strong AGI is 2029. I am completely sure that it will either emerge or will already be there in 2030s.

During my research, preparing my next presentations, i found this beautiful speech by Krafft Ehricke, in 1984, before he passed away.
Every single word is a precious teaching, a beautiful lecture on natural philosophy.
New artificial skin for bionic arm or AI robot | breakthrough photonic chip processes 2 billion images per second without memory device.
AI news includes new artificial skin to let AI robot, bionic arm or prosthetic limb feel with extreme touch sensitivity. New photonic chip allows AI to process and classify 2 billion images per second without needing storage device.
