Researchers have created an artificial intelligence system capable of predicting where a drug molecule can be chemically altered. A collaborative team from LMU, ETH Zurich, and Roche Pharma Research and Early Development (pRED) in Basel has employed artificial intelligence (AI) to devise a novel tec...

A Princeton-led team has developed an AI model to predict and avert plasma instabilities in fusion reactors, showcasing real-time control improvements and setting the stage for more reliable fusion energy production. In the blink of an eye, the unruly, superheated plasma that drives a fusion reactio...

What Is Artificial Intelligence? Artificial intelligence (AI) is the collective term for computer technologies and techniques that help solve complex problems by imitating the brain’s ability to learn. AI helps computers recognize patterns hidden within a lot of information, solve problems, and adju...

The software discipline has broad involvement across each of the NASA Mission Directorates. Some recent discipline focus and development areas are highlighted below, along with a look at the Software Technical Discipline Team’s (TDT) approach to evolving discipline best practices toward the future. ...

Researchers have created a photonic chip capable of processing images at nanosecond speeds, significantly faster than current methods. This chip enhances edge intelligence by integrating AI analysis directly into optical processing, potentially transforming applications such as autonomous driving. R...

New research shows that goldenrod plants demonstrate a form of intelligence by adapting their responses to herbivores based on the presence of neighboring plants and environmental cues, challenging traditional definitions of intelligence. Goldenrod can perceive other plants nearby without ever touch...

Researchers at the University of Texas have developed an AI that predicted 70% of earthquakes during a trial in China, indicating potential for future quake risk mitigation.
