Engineers enlist AI to help scale up advanced solar cell manufacturing
Perovskites are a family of materials that are currently the leading contender to potentially replace today's silicon-based solar photovoltaics. They hold the promise of panels that are far thinner and lighter, that could be made with ultra-high throughput at room temperature instead of at hundreds of degrees, and that are cheaper and easier to transport and install.

Developing countries are being left behind in the AI race—and that's a problem for all of us
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is much more than just a buzzword nowadays. It powers facial recognition in smartphones and computers, translation between foreign languages, systems which filter spam emails and identify toxic content on social media, and can even detect cancerous tumours.
Artificial intelligence facilitates better control of global development aid
A team of AI experts led by Stefan Feuerriegel, Head of LMU's Institute of Artificial Intelligence in Management, is injecting transparency into global development aid. The researchers have developed an artificial intelligence system that categorizes aid projects more comprehensively than it was possible up to now and facilitates better monitoring of these projects.
Robots are creating images and telling jokes: Five things to know about foundation models and the next generation of AI
If you've seen photos of a teapot shaped like an avocado or read a well-written article that veers off on slightly weird tangents, you may have been exposed to a new trend in artificial intelligence (AI).
New AI algorithms for cost-effective medical image diagnostics
Medical imaging is an important part of modern healthcare, enhancing both the precision, reliability and development of treatment for various diseases. Artificial intelligence has also been widely used to further enhance the process.
Lumafield will give engineers X-ray vision to see inside products
Lumafield has raised $32.5 million for an X-ray that will enable engineers to see inside the products that they designing or repairing.
After the IPO: IonQ takes on highly charged quantum computing challenge
By some measures, IonQ was late to the quantum computing race in 2019, when it first announced access to its platform via cloud partnerships, but if IonQ was later to enter the quantum computing race, it was early among quantum computing IPOs.
Developing countries are being left behind in the AI race – and that's a problem for all of us
While the developed world is making rapid technological progress, the developing world is underrepresented in the AI revolution.
Zapped: The grid is on life support. Can AI fix it?
Everything you wanted to know about our fragile, ageing, and increasingly unreliable grid (and how AI may be our only hope).
