Thousands of AI Researchers Are Boycotting the New Nature Journal
When did science become so political? Between applying for government grants for research, paying journals so university students can read published science papers, and inter-departmental politics surrounding tenure, there is no shortage of politics in scientific research. Nature is the world’s most cited journal. The London-based publishing group’s addition of machine learning (ML) into their line-up of more than […]
These AI-Powered Robot Bees Could Save Insects from Extinction
Researchers from London, Edinburgh, and Italy are working together to design and develop AI robot bees that could help our environment and several endangered species of bees. The project, dubbed FOCAS (for Fundamentals of Collective Adaptive Systems), has spanned five years of research. The scientists hope to study how social animals communicate with the swarms of robot bees. […]
