In a world where complexity often reigns, a research team at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) took a different approach to solving the inherent issues of solid-state batteries. Led by Professor Byoungwoo Kang and Dr. Abin Kim, the team developed a solid electrolyte with unique properties that paved the way for an ultra-thin

Italy’s competition authority has imposed a 3.5 million euro fine on Meta for a lack of transparency in its data management practices related to Instagram and Facebook accounts. The AGCM watchdog has specifically cited Meta for engaging in “unfair commercial practices” regarding the handling of user data and account suspensions. One of the key issues

Large language models (LLMs) are the backbone of many popular generative AI platforms, such as ChatGPT, which have gained widespread use and attention in recent years. However, a new study conducted by researchers at University College London reveals concerning findings about the reasoning abilities of these advanced AI models. The study, published in Royal Society

The recent research on enhancing the production of plutonium-238 (238Pu) with a new high-resolution neutronics model is a potential game-changer in various technological fields. The team of nuclear scientists from Shanghai Jiao Tong University and the Nuclear Power Institute of China has reported a significant 18.81% increase in yield by implementing methods such as filter

Renewable hydrogen is projected to be a key player in reducing carbon emissions in Europe. The sourcing of renewable hydrogen from regions with cheaper renewable energy has been shown to be more cost-effective compared to local production. However, concerns about the environmental impact of transporting large quantities of hydrogen over long distances have been raised.

The aviation industry is experiencing a significant transformation with the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into various operations. While the idea of replacing pilots with AI may still be a distant reality, experts in the field acknowledge the profound impact that AI is having on aviation businesses. Julie Pozzi, the head of data science and

Metal halide perovskites have gained significant attention in recent years due to their remarkable optoelectronic properties. Among these materials, tin (Sn) halide perovskites have shown great potential in fabricating p-type transistors with impressive field-effect hole mobilities. However, the development of n-type transistors based on perovskite channels has been challenging, limiting the potential for complementary logic
