Humanoid robots in China assembled over 3,000 tablets during a 10-hour shift

Leave a Comment / Applied Science, Robotics /

During a trial at Longcheer Technology’s manufacturing facility in Nanchang, China, Agibot’s G2 humanoid robots processed more than 3,000 tablets over nearly 10 hours. The test was broadcast live continuously for six days. Agibot reported that the robots maintained a 99.99% success rate throughout the demonstration. Their tasks included inspecting, positioning, and separating tablets as […]

Mushrooms causing tiny human hallucinations contain no psychedelics

Applied Science, Neuroscience /

If you ate a wild mushroom and suddenly began seeing tiny people, you might naturally assume it contained a known psychedelic compound. However, that doesn’t seem to be the case with Lanmaoa asiatica—locally called “jian shou qing”—a species sold in markets in Yunnan in southwestern China. Undercooked Consumption and Lilliputian Hallucinations When eaten insufficiently cooked,

Robotic bird sheds light on the mysteries of turbulent flight

Robotics, Tech /

A bio-inspired robotic bird that replicates the key movements of kestrels is helping researchers uncover the secrets behind the birds’ remarkable ability to hover. With climate change expected to intensify atmospheric turbulence, studying how birds naturally navigate and stabilize themselves in rough air could inform the design of small unmanned aerial vehicles (sUAVs), making them

AI May Learn Languages More Effectively by Forgetting

Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science /

Giving AI a human-like limitation on memory may actually improve its ability to learn language. In a new proof-of-concept study, Abishek Thamma of the University of Amsterdam and Micha Heilbron of the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics found that small language models with a short-lived memory learned grammar more effectively when trained on language input
