Artificial neurons go quantum with photonic circuits

At the heart of all artificial intelligence applications are mathematical models called neural networks. The biological structure of the human brain, which is made up of interconnected nodes, inspired these models. Neural networks can be mathematically trained by tuning their internal structure until they are capable of human-level tasks, such as recognising our faces, interpreting medical images for diagnosis, and even driving our cars, much like our brain learns by constantly rearranging the connections between neurons. Having integrated devices capable of swiftly and efficiently completing the computations necessary in neural networks has thus become a major academic and corporate research priority. The development of the memristor in 2008 was one of the key game changers in the area. The memory-resistor, or memristor, is a device that adjusts its resistance based on a memory of a previous current. Scientists noticed very away that the unique behaviour of memristors was remarkably comparable to that of neural synapses (among many other applications). As a result, the memristor has become a crucial component in neuromorphic designs. Prof. Philip…

Instagram ‘s AI driven feed introduces a new feature

Instagram has started rolling out a new feature that allows users to view their feeds in chronological order. This method was available in the site’s early days, but that changed after the Meta-owned platform began to rely on algorithms and AI to present more’relevant feeds.’ Apart from the standard Home view, users may now choose between Favourites and Following. The change appears to be server-side, however if users are unable to view it, they should update the app from the appropriate app store. To choose Favorites or Following, users must…

India to develop its own mobile OS like Android and iOS, says Union Minister

If you have a smartphone, it is likely that it runs on Android or iOS. In the smartphone software ecosystem, there is a duopoly between Google and Apple, which not only other firms, such as Microsoft but also governments of many nations have pushed to break. The Indian government is considering developing its own mobile operating system in order to compete with both Google and Apple. As per Rajeev Chandrasekhar, Minister of State for Electronics and Information Technology, the government intends to build an environment for the development of an alternative…
