Could artificial superintelligence be closer than we think? UC San Diego philosopher Eddy Keming Chen discusses recent advances in AI, the prospect of machines surpassing human intelligence and how society can thoughtfully navigate increasingly capable AI systems.
Cassandra Vieten explores the neuroscience of imagination, how it shapes our lives and why cultivating it matters more than ever in the age of AI.
Scientific discovery increasingly depends on AI resources, including large-scale computing, high-quality data and specialized tools. Without access to these resources, ambitious questions pursued by U.S. researchers may exceed the resources of an individual laboratory or institution.
UC San Diego's Qualcomm Institute hosted three summer internships in semiconductors, game design and AI, giving students hands-on, workforce-ready skills.
The San Diego Supercomputer Center will serve as the testing ground for a new $8.48 million project that could transform how AI data centers receive and manage electricity while helping prevent them from overwhelming California's power grid.
Scientists have revealed the DNA identity of the “initiator,” a crucial sequence that kickstarts gene activation. AI analysis of a half million data points deciphered the initiator’s identity. Researchers can use the new information to scan for mutations that may lead to diseases such as cancer.
