Given how long some 3D-printing jobs can take, most people don't sit around and watch the entire process. This means they may miss printing errors, which waste a lot of filament. AIMS, however, reportedly uses AI to spot errors and stop the printer.

A pair of studies are showing how passive smartphone data can be used to predict relapse episodes in schizophrenia patients. The research used machine learning to analyze behavioral data and predict schizophrenic relapses up to one month before they occurred.

A new study has validated the efficacy of a novel AI algorithm designed to deliver accurate MRI results using a quarter of the data of current systems. This innovation promises to speed up MRI scans without upgrades to pre-existing imaging hardware.

When an unauthorized drone is being flown in a restricted airspace, the authorities understandably want to locate its operator. A new AI-based system may allow them to do so, succeeding where other technologies fail.

It turns out that neural networks might also need sleep to function at their peak. And it’s not just a matter of turning them off every now and then – the neurons benefit from exposure to slow-wave signals like those in a sleeping biological brain.

"It's Christmas time, and you know what that means," sings Sinatra, "Ohh, it's hot tub time!" A neural net has begun composing entire songs modeled on the prior works of artists in a wide range of genres, including lyrics and vocal performances.
-
Insects rapidly transition between walking gaits, in response to external stimuli. Scientists have now created a robot that does the same thing, utilizing an artificial neural network – the tech might ultimately find use in better prostheses.
-
New Atlas talks to research scientist Janelle Shane about the inherent oddness of neural networks and other AIs. Shane's sideline in experimenting with neural networks led her to write "You Look Like a Thing and I Love You."

Digital modeling of vintage guitar amps has been getting better and better over the years, but there are folks who swear that the tone emulations just don't sound authentic. Research out of Finland's Aalto University suggests otherwise.
-
Melding the worlds of art and computer science, two Danish artists have developed a fascinating AI project called Booksby.ai, an online bookshop generated by AI - from the books and covers, to the reviews and pictures of people reviewing the books.
