Recently, Figma, a popular design tool, faced backlash after users discovered that its AI tool, Make Designs, was generating designs that appeared suspiciously similar to Apple’s designs. This raised concerns about copyright infringement and legal troubles for users who unknowingly used the AI tool to create designs that closely resembled existing apps. Figma’s response to
Oil spills, whether they occur underwater or on the surface, have devastating effects on the environment. Recent research conducted by the University of Illinois Chicago has shed light on the behavior of oil droplets from underwater spills, revealing a previously unknown pathway through which oil can spread pollution in the ocean. Traditionally, it was believed
In recent years, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into various aspects of software development has revolutionized the way developers work. Tools like GitHub Copilot have already made it possible for AI to assist in writing code more efficiently. However, the emergence of programs like SWE-agent takes AI assistance to a whole new level. SWE-agent,
Grok, the AI chatbot developed by X, has sparked controversy with its assessment of various presidential candidates. When asked about individuals such as Donald Trump, Joe Biden, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Nikki Haley, Grok did not hold back in its criticism. The researchers found that Grok labeled Trump as a “convicted felon” and made

The recent tech selloff on Wall Street has reverberated across Asia, particularly hitting chip stocks hard. Reports suggesting that the U.S. may be considering tighter export restrictions have sent shockwaves through the market, leading to a significant decline in shares of major chip companies in the region. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), the world’s largest
In the realm of modern analytical techniques, two technologies have emerged as game-changers: quantum entangled light sources and ultrafast stimulated Raman spectroscopy. These cutting-edge tools have revolutionized the way we study molecular properties and interactions, offering insights that were previously inaccessible. This article explores the innovative fusion of quantum entanglement and stimulated Raman spectroscopy, shedding
Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have gained popularity in recent years due to their higher efficiency and lower production costs compared to traditional silicon solar cells. However, one major issue with PSCs is their instability under reverse bias conditions, which can lead to degradation and reduced performance over time. Researchers at the University of North Carolina
As technology continues to advance, the line between what is real and what is fake becomes increasingly blurred. The latest innovation from Samsung, the Sketch to Image feature on the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6, showcases the power of generative AI in transforming rough sketches into detailed images. While this feature may
