This month's tech news highlights progress on multiple fronts. Researchers explore how AI can inspire new forms of robotic collaboration, while a new chip promises to accelerate development in large language models. We also see Finland asserting itself as a key player in the European chip industry, and SpaceX gearing up for another Starship launch. Meanwhile, scholars grapple with the challenge of AI-generated misinformation finding its way into academic databases.
Stigmergy is a mechanism of indirect coordination, in which individuals can influence their peers by changing their environment. For example, some ant species lay pheromone trails to navigate between food sources and nests. Researchers used these robots to conduct a study to see if stigmergy-based behavior can be produced via automatic design. The results...
Elon Musk lost his claim as having the most powerful space-worthy rocket when NASA blasted its mega rocket to the moon in 2022.But the SpaceX founder could win back the title with his company's next big project: Starship. Though the company was unsuccessful during its first two tests in April and November of last year — the skyscraping rocket and spacecraft...
The chip, the size of a single semiconductor wafer, has doubled performance to handle large language models in the tens of trillions of parameters.

Three years ago, Häme University of Applied Sciences (HAMK) joined the European University alliance ‘Regional University Network – European University’, better known as RUN-EU, together with six other European universities. HAMK has had the privilege to lead one of the work packages, namely ‘Future and Advanced Skills Academies – FASA’. The aim of...
As a Chief Scientific Advisory for the European Commission I have co-written recommendations for the European Commission about the uptake of AI for research. Based on scientific evidence gathered and presented by tens of leading experts in #AI we recommend how European Commission can help to make best use of AI to support European Scientists in their...
The Experience Sampling Method (ESM) stands as a beacon in the realm of research, shedding light on the intricate tapestry of human experience and behavior in real-time. Imagine asking your neighbor how optimistic they feel about their day ahead; their response could vary drastically from the groggy reluctance at dawn to a more upbeat tone after an...
The “Chips from the North” strategy unveiled recently highlights a promising opportunity for Finland's growth: local semiconductor companies are projected to triple their turnover to EUR 5–6 billion by 2035. Should this forecast hold true, the number of people working in the sector could increase from 7,000 to 20,000. This growth is spurred by two...
