If you read this site, chances are pretty good that you've probably played around with a neural image upscaler at some point. These programs, like the popular "waifu2x", use a pre-trained neural network to upscale an image without introducing blurring, pixelated artifacts, or excess noise, giving you a...

Researchers have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) system that can effectively read the human mind. The group from the University of Texas at Austin trained a neural network to noninvasively decode functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) signals from the human brain.
The innovations in AI have...

If you play The Elder Scrolls V: Skryim long enough, you'll inevitably run into repetitive dialogue, such as every guard with a sob story about having taken an arrow to the knee. Beyond that, however, it's easy to plow through the rich story and dialogue trees to where conversations become less interesting. That could...

Every new generation of smartphones has some sort of fancy gimmick as a selling point, and one of the key features of Samsung's Galaxy S22 Ultra was "Space Zoom". (It's also present on the Galaxy S23.) The idea is that the phone has a 100x electronic zoom ability due to the insanely high 200-megapixel resolution of...

Researchers have been investigating how fungi can replace or benefit existing computer architectural components. Studies have recently been completed that show it is possible to implement basic logical circuits and basic electronic circuits with mycelium the network of fungal threads usually hidden deep beneath the...

Investors are upbeat following NVIDIA's fourth quarter and fiscal 2023 financial results, with the company's share price surging after it beat out Wall Street's expectations. That's a despite a 21 percent year-over-year drop in quarterly revenue to $6.05 billion and a massive 46 percent decline in gaming revenue to...

Having access to a search option in Windows 11 is great and all, but what's not so nifty is that it's basically just a glorified button that brings up a separate window to actually perform a search. Why can't we just type our query into the space that the button occupies in the taskbar? Well, that feature is coming...

"RDNA 4?" you cry, "but RDNA 3 just came out!" Indeed it did, and the release of AMD's Radeon RX 7900 XT and RX 7900 XTX graphics cards just two months ago marked the debut of AMD's third iteration of its RDNA graphics architecture. Despite that, AMD's already talking-up RDNA 4. In an interview with Japanese site...

Artificial intelligence mostly isn't, at least not yet. Still, the artificial neural networks that humans have created are capable of some very impressive things, and you've probably seen plenty of examples of text and images created by computers that are extremely cool. What about music, though? There have...

NVIDIA Broadcast is offering up users a new way to ensure they maintain eye contact while creating content, streaming or meeting on video conferences. The new Eye Contact effect moves the eyes of the speaker in order to simulate eye contact with the camera. This cool new feature is achieved by estimating and aligning...

Samsunghas commanded a bit of the limelight this week amidst a barrage of CES 2023 product launches and announcements, especially with its ridiculously cool57 8K Odyssey Mini LED G9 gaming monitor. It is ludicrously excessive in all the ways that excite us, but in any event, it isnt the only exciting thing coming from...

There's a long history of vendor-locked graphical techniques that only see implementation in a few games. Names like Quincunx and Truform (among many others) resonate in PC gamers' memories, and it sometimes inoculates us against enthusiasm for new technologies. Intel doesn't want XeSS to go the way of the T-buffer...

Pong became one of the first commercially successful video games when it was released in 1972. It's a simple game with just one control input. It's so simple, in fact, that scientists at a company called Cortical Labs have grown a "mini-brain" in the lab that can play it. The cluster of neurons didn't need to be told...

NVIDIA has made no bones about its embrace of AI to continue the march of 3D graphics innovation. The company has developed and refined its Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) techniques significantly since it was introduced way back in 2018. The latest incarnation introduced with the GeForce 40-Series cards has been...

Moores Law has been at the beating heart of technology advancement ever since it was first posited in 1965. Gordon Moore coined the golden rule which observes and predicts that the number of transistors in a microchip double roughly every two years. This is largely accomplished by making transistors ever smaller, but...
