MediaTek's Dimensity 9000 system-on-chip (SoC) has been highly anticipated as a powerful mobile flagship Android SoC alternative to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and Google Tensor. The top mobile chip in MediaTek's stable is described as a "milestone of innovation," and that "everything inside its super powerfulyet super...

Ian Goodfellow, Apple's director of machine learning, has left the company after three years of service. It is believed that a large part of his decision to leave had to do with Apple's policy on returning to in-person work in its various offices.
Apple was able to sway the noted artificial intelligence expert away...

It's been a little over a year since we reviewed the 2020 Mac mini with Apple's M1 silicon inside, and so it's high time for a discount, don't you think? Amazon thinks so, and has marked down the potent little system to match its lowest price ever.
You can find the M1 Mac mini (2020) on Amazon for $569.99 right...

Researchers at MIT are developing a new AI method that will allow robots to think more like a human as it makes pizza. The framework for the robotic system uses a two-stage learning process, which is aimed to enable a robot to perform complex dough-manipulation tasks over a long period of time.
When someone thinks...

For the past several years, weve been hearing about Intels extensive plan to enter the discrete GPU space. Its the main reason why Raja Koduri joined the chipmaker in late 2017, who came on board to spearhead not just a one-off product launch, but a new era of graphics at Intel with a robust roadmap extending years...

A first-of-its-kind brain helmet is headed to the International Space Station to analyze and record neurological activity in microgravity. Brain.space will conduct the experiment using its proprietary EEG-enabled headset and be operated by the astronauts of Axiom-1 (AX-1).
As NASA and others continue to work toward...

It takes a human being around 0.1 to 0.4 seconds to blink. In even less time, an AI-based inverse rendering process developed by NVIDIA can generate a realistic three-dimensional scene from a series of two-dimensional photographs taken from different angles.
NVIDIA's approach is based on a new technology called...

AMD's FSR 1.0 was a solid first effort by the company, but as is the case with any new technology, there is always room for improvement.FSR 1.0 is mostly a post-processing filter that attempts to make a blurry, low-resolution image look clearer by applying a sharpening filter. It's better than a linear upscale, but...

At the heart of every autonomous machine, modern industrial robot, and automated manufacturing apparatus is some form artificial intelligence. These things are amazingly complex, toonot only are there models to train, but there are sensors to interpret and reactions to formulate. NVIDIA has been at the forefront of...

Back in the 1990s, NVIDIA got its start selling graphics adapters for desktop PCs. After a rocky start with the NV1, NVIDIA established itself as a performance leader soon thereafter with the release of the TwiN-Texel (TNT) chip, and with the original GeForce 256, as a technology leader, too.
That's all ancient...

Apple announced a series of product and service upgrades during its Peek Performance event today, including the latest generation iPad Air powered by the company's M1 processor, and a beefed up iPhone SE with an A15 Bionic chip and 5G radio underneath the hood. While neither are flagship models, both now wield...

In addition to rolling out upgraded iPad Air and iPhone SE devices today, Apple also announced an entirely new Mac desktop and accompanying display, and a new flagship chip, a designation that previously applied to the M1 Max. Not anymorethe M1 Ultra now qualifies as Apple's top home-brewed silicon, and it comes by...

New research suggests that not only are AI-generated faces indistinguishable from real ones, but are more trustworthy as well. And as such, AI-synthesized text, audio, image, and video are being used in nefarious ways such as financial fraud, blackmail, and disinformation campaigns. Yikes!

A feature, formerly exclusive to the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, has found its way to other Pixel devices in a recent update to Google'sGboard software. That feature is grammar check, and it has a surprisingly small resource footprint, and is reasonably fast, even as far back as on a Pixel 3.
The feature, outlined on...

Intel will finally make an earnest run at the discrete graphics market in just a matter of weeks, with its first Alchemist GPUs slated to ship this quarter, followed by add-in cards for desktops in the second quarter and workstation SKUs in the third quarter. It's those desktop cards that we're most interested in, and...

A team of astronomers have found evidence of an exoplanet orbiting the closest star to our own Sun. The discovery was made using the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope (ESO's VLT) in Chile.
Last year NASA used a deep learning AI to discover 301 exoplanets that human eyes had previously missed. The...

Apple's iMac Pro all-in-one desktop is long overdue for a refresh (or a comeback, if you prefer), and assuming one does come along, the expectation up to this point was that it would feature an existing M1 Pro or M1 Max processor. Perhaps not. A leaker with a decent track record tipping Apple products claims the iMac...

Apple has been moving away from Intel processors to its own custom Arm-based Silicon since November 2020. If one well-known leaker is right, the Apple Silicon transition could wrap up in 2022 with the release of an all-new Mac Pro.
Back in August 2021, a similar report suggested the Cupertino-based tech giant would...

The Raspberry Pi is terrific for plenty of uses, from retro-style gaming to running an extremely low-cost server. A team of researchers have discovered another new use for Raspberry Pi: hands-off malware detection.
While most virus and malware detection depends on file signatures and behaviors, this new project...

A solid move for folks who just want to play some PC games in this GPU-starved market hellscape has been to pick up a CPU with a fast integrated GPU. Sure, integrated graphics aren't going to blow anyone's socks off, but game performance can be eminently playable with the right settings. In a laptop, you have your...

The United States' armed services have been trying to improve their tactical gear using artificial intelligence (AI) for awhile nownot so much in the form of adorable robotic companions, but instead, using deep learning systems to optimize functions like object tracking and target recognition.

The Epic Games Store refreshed its freebie titles today and if you're a fan of the multi-player horror genre, you're going to like this one. It's Dead by Daylight (which you already knew from the headline), a four-versus-one that is somewhat similar in vein to Friday the 13th, in that one person is the killer and the...
