Why AI can't ever reach its full potential without a physical body
How could a software box have a subjective viewpoint of, and in, the physical world that humans inhabit?
Do explanations for data-based predictions actually increase users' trust in AI?
In recent years, many artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics researchers have been trying to develop systems that can provide explanations for their actions or predictions. The idea behind their work is that as AI systems become more widespread, explaining why they act in particular ways or why they made certain predictions could increase transparency and consequently users' trust in them.
Nvidia spans AI from $59 Jetson Nano robots to massive datacenters on a chip

Frequency-dependent circuits anchored in the dorsal and ventral left anterior insula
Can traditional computational analysis and machine learning help compensate for inadequate peer review of drug-repurposing papers in the context of an infodemic?
Dust dominates high-altitude snow darkening and melt over high-mountain Asia
Dust deposition in high-mountain Asia lowers snow albedo and hastens melt. Satellite data and models show that dust arrives via transport in elevated aerosol layers and outweighs black carbon impacts at high altitudes, suggesting a growing importance of dust on snowmelt as snowlines rise with warming.
Many Top AI Researchers Get Financial Backing From Big Tech
A study finds that 58 percent of faculty at four prominent universities have received grants, fellowships, or other financial support from 14 tech firms.
