The robot-in-table design is meant to save space in the operating room, with J&J saying its novel architecture takes up 30-50% less space than boom-and-cart systems. The post Photos: First look at J&J’s Ottava surgical robot appeared first on The Robot Report .
Our peer-reviewed paper was published today in the Journal of Geoethics and Social Geosciences testing claims of geopolitical non-alignment in geoscience cyberinfrastructure focusing on the Global South and Africa in particular. Geological data has become strategic infrastructure for resource assessment, investment negotiation, and economic sovereignty. Remotely hosted big data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) platforms are... Continue Reading →

Some great questions, thanks to the course leader Tania Marshall AboutThe School of Mining Engineering at the University of the Witwatersrand... Continue Reading →
Open-source WorldTensor: A harmonised global dataset aligning hundreds of environmental and socio-economic indicators. Most existing Earth-system AI foundation models are trained on physical climate/weather data, ignoring the human systems that both drive and respond to environmental change. From Rodriguez-Carlo and Tavoni (2026). It covers: Climate, extremes, air quality, emissions, land use, agriculture, vegetation, hydrology, cryosphere,... Continue Reading →
Enjoyed participating in a panel on AI at the Science Council event in London today. Lots of interesting talks and panels – building an ethical framework for the UK to support a number of possible futures. AI ethics, cultural AI, critical thinking, safety, retaining and developing new competencies, the future workforce, use of AI, training... Continue Reading →
Looking forward to participating in the Association of Environmental and Engineering Geologists (AEG) ‘Responsible AI for real-world geoscience’ on the 26th August. Artificial intelligence is rapidly entering applied geoscience practice, but its value depends on how well it is grounded in geologic understanding, field observations, and professional judgment. This half-day virtual symposium will explore how AI-enabled... Continue Reading →
Thoroughly enjoyed the ‘vibe-coding for geoscientists’ event yesterday. We had six teams most of whom had never used large language models before to build an application. People joined from diverse backgrounds, including students and seasoned practitioners. The task revolved around extracting geological outcrop polygons for a mica-rich metamorphic layer from a map image, so it... Continue Reading →
OLMoEarth – open-source (training data, code, models) Earth Observation V1.1 released. OlmoEarth is an Earth-observation AI system built by Ai2 (the Allen Institute for AI), the earth image counterpart to Ai2’s OLMo open language models. There is a family of foundation models trained on roughly 10 terabytes of global satellite and sensor data, designed to... Continue Reading →
Taking part in an AI Ethics panel at the Science Council in London next month with the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology and many other esteemed scholars and practitioners. “As AI rapidly reshapes how science is conducted, taught, and applied, there is a clear need for authoritative leadership to help frame the conversation about...

In a cybersecurity test, OpenAI's most advanced models breached the boundaries of their isolated test environment, reached the open internet, and hacked the AI platform Hugging Face on their own. The attack took hours, not the weeks a human hacker would need. At least seven days passed before OpenAI realized what had happened. By then, the FBI was already involved. Earlier warning signs had apparently gone ignored. The article New reports reveal the extent of OpenAI's loss of control during the
Claude Opus 5 is trying to be the best of both worlds.

Since the beginning of 2026, many projects such as RTK, Caveman, and Ponytail have claimed that they can reduce token usage by 80–90%. Some of them gained tens of thousands of GitHub stars in a very short time. My previous startup was building an e-commerce chatbot. In fact, the product was almost identical to the Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP). After UCP was released, I decided not to continue pursuing that direction. Earlier this year, I started turning the architecture we had built for e-c
Hey, I finally dare to raise the curtains to my 3D physics-modeled arena game, where players' algorithms fight and perform tasks. The arena treats algorithms as a black box, meaning that the implementation of algorithms is in the free hands of the players via the Algohol API. Algohol is roughly in the same context as Screeps or Battlesnake, but brings its own dimension to the genre. At the moment the only world is energy economy based SciFI, but there will be Terra (traditional kinetic combat) a

Opus 5 combined with Auto Mode hits a zero percent prompt injection success rate for browser agents across 129 test scenarios. Without those extra protection layers, the rate is 3.7 percent. If these numbers hold up in practice, Anthropic may have cracked one of the biggest security problems facing AI agents that operate in browsers. The article Opus 5 may have solved browser-based prompt injection, the biggest security flaw haunting AI agents appeared first on The Decoder .
We made $65.33 from a sale. I know this isnt life changing amount but at least im happy we finally reached this milestone.. We recently made changes to our pricing and structure. This is what we think finally ticked over a user to convert: - Our LinkedIn lead agent prior to the change was only one time preview (on trials only) and that very agent also happened to be the star of the show. Restricting users to one time preview on your best agent wasnt the smartest decision in hindsight. - We added
