Robotic system feeds people with severe mobility limitations
Cornell researchers have developed a robotic feeding system that uses computer vision, machine learning and multimodal sensing to safely feed people with severe mobility limitations, including those with spinal cord injuries, cerebral palsy and multiple sclerosis.
Machine Learning Study Offers Clues to Why Some People Have Rheumatoid Arthritis Pain Without Inflammation
A new study supported in part by NIH and reported in Science Translational Medicine suggests that in some people with RA, the joint lining may direct the growth of pain-sensing neurons to cause pain in the absence of inflammation. This discovery, made possible with the help of machine learning, suggests potential new ways to treat this painful disease.
AI-generated empathy has its limits
Researchers from Cornell Tech, Cornell and Stanford University found that, despite their ability to display empathy, conversational agents such as Siri do poorly compared to humans when interpreting and exploring a user’s experience.
3D video conferencing tool lets remote user control the view
Collaborating on a physical object when two people aren’t in the same room can be extremely challenging, but a new remote conferencing system allows the remote user to manipulate a view of the scene in 3D.
Cornell Tech Launches Security, Trust, and Safety Initiative
The new initiative will be led by director Alexios Mantzarlis and aims to become a global hub for researchers, students, and practitioners focusing on online systems security and user safety.
Students revive classic microchip fabrication with open-source tools
A unique project team enables Cornell undergraduates to use emerging open-source hardware to design, test and fabricate their own microchips – a complex, expensive process that is rarely available to students.
OpenAI funds Choudhury’s work to keep superhuman AI in check
Sanjiban Choudhury, assistant professor of computer science in the Cornell Ann S. Bowers College of Computing and Information Science, will receive a $150,000 grant from OpenAI, a leading artificial intelligence (AI) company that has developed ChatGPT and other generative AI models, for work that may one day help ensure that superhuman AI systems stay under human control.
