Chinese scientists build world's fastest humanoid robot — but it's not going to win any sprints just yet

By harnessing a huge amount of torque in its legs, the H1 robot can potentially reach 11 miles per hour at top speed. A Chinese bipedal robot has set a new world speed record for a humanoid robot — and can maintain its balance when knocked off course. The newest version of Unitree's H1 robot, called "Evolution V3.0", is a bipedal robot that stands a little over 5 foot 11 inches (1.8 meters) tall and weighs less than 110 pounds (50 kilograms).

Butterfly brains reveal the tweaks required for cognitive innovation


A species of tropical butterfly with unusually expanded brain structures display a fascinating mosaic pattern of neural expansion linked to a cognitive innovation.

As part of this behaviour, they demonstrate a remarkable ability to learn and remember spatial information about their food sources -- skills previously connected to the expansion of a brain structure called the mushroom bodies, responsible for learning and memory. Through a detailed analysis of the butterfly brain, the team discovered that certain groups of cells, known as Kenyon cells, expanded at different rates. This variation led to a pattern called mosaic brain evolution, where some parts of the brain expand while others remain unchanged, analogous to mosaic tiles all being very different from each other.

How do you remember how to ride a bike? Thank your cerebellum

Researchers have shown that, just like declarative memories, short-term and long-term memories for motor skills form in different regions of the brain, with the cerebellum being critical for the formation of long-term skill memories.

Researchers from the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have shown that, just like declarative memories, short-term and long-term memories for motor skills form in different regions of the brain, with the cerebellum being critical for the formation of long-term skill memories.

This work advances our understanding of the role of the cerebellum in sensorimotor learning and points towards the role of the cerebellum as a gateway to the formation of stable memories for sensorimotor skills, largely independent of the short-term memory systems.

Zoundream: This AI baby cry 'translator' may next help detect autism and other health disorders

Zoundream has created an application that analyses babies’ crying, using machine learning and a bank of data to suggest what a baby wants. The next step is using the sound of infant cries to identify early signals of pathologies and development disorder,” Roberto Iannone, the CEO and founder of Zoundream, told Euronews Next.

“Babies cry differently if they have a pathology or a developmental disorder like autism, for example, or other ones, but also pathologies like breathing issues, or heart diseases or hearing issues."

Google fires engineer who contended its AI technology was sentient

Google (GOOG) has fired the engineer who claimed an unreleased AI system had become sentient, the company confirmed, saying he violated employment and data security policies.

Blake Lemoine, a software engineer for Google, claimed that a conversation technology called LaMDA had reached a level of consciousness after exchanging thousands of messages with it.

Google confirmed it had first put the engineer on leave in June. The company said it dismissed Lemoine's "wholly unfounded" claims only after reviewing them extensively.

Google is one of the leaders in innovating AI technology, which included LaMDA, or "Language Model for Dialog Applications." Technology like this responds to written prompts by finding patterns and predicting sequences of words from large swaths of text -- and the results can be disturbing for humans.

The Science Behind How Virtual Food Plays With Our Senses

Virtual food can be utilized by astronauts to improve their dining experience in orbit. Smaller amounts of food can fill the stomach by simply convincing the brain that it consumed more than it really did. The possibilities are endless. Yet how exactly does virtual food satisfy our appetites? Could it become a popular staple of the modern diet?

By using enhanced goggles that changed how the cookie looked and smelled — with several tubes emanating different flavored scents such as lemon and chocolate — Narumi and his team of researchers were able to change how Klose tasted the cookie. The virtual reality goggles would, for example, show a chocolate cookie instead of the plain version eaten by Krose in the goggle's eyepieces. Combined with the aroma of chocolate from the tubes, Krose's brain accepted this new information by also changing the taste to chocolate rather than plain.

Reminders Reduce Age-Related Memory Decline in Older Adults

A new study shows that using reminders can counteract age-related declines in memory, especially for tasks that require prospective memory, such as taking medication. Researchers found that reminders help both younger and older adults improve memory performance under high cognitive load.

This breakthrough suggests that digital tools, like smartphone apps, can significantly aid older adults in maintaining independence and managing daily tasks. The study highlights the potential of reminders in mitigating memory challenges associated with aging.
