Training robots. Training humans…
Multi-domain operations, the Army's future operating concept, requires autonomous agents with learning components to operate alongside the warfighter. New research reduces the unpredictability of current training reinforcement learning policies so that they are more practically applicable to physical systems, especially ground robots. (1) Robots can be trained. But is that an argument in favor of…

Human (AI) Grounding: I do not understand! (A lost art)
I did not understand. That phrase is encountered less and less in today's AI powered era. You see, everyone "understands" with the summary provided by AI. Everyone "knows" with the knowledge support of a great LLM that taps on the knowledge of millions just to show something. And given time, you may even write a…

New research provides a solution for the century-and-half-old puzzle of why capillary condensation, a fundamentally microscopic phenomenon involving a few molecular layers of water, can be described reasonably well using macroscopic equations and macroscopic characteristics of bulk water. Is it a coincidence or a hidden law of nature? (1) Look at those children play. Building…

Origins of emotions… Master of War…
A number of studies have sought to connect given emotions, such as fear or pleasure, to specific areas of the brain, but without success. A research team has now analyzed volunteers while they were playing a video game that had been specially developed to arouse different emotions. The results, show that different emotional components recruit…

Faster… Faster… Faster… To nothing and beyond…
Researchers have developed a new software that could revolutionize how DNA is sequenced, making it far faster and less expensive to map anything from yeast genomes to cancer genes. (1) Poor humans. Trying to make things faster. So that they have time to do more things. Things that they will need to do faster as…
