Autonomous vs Human-Driven Vehicle Accidents: What the Data Reveals
A new study published in Nature Communications provides a detailed comparative analysis of accidents involving AVs versus human-driven vehicles (HDVs). Researchers Mohamed Abdel-Aty and Shengxuan Ding, from the University of Central Florida, utilized a dataset of over 37,000 accidents to uncover the differential characteristics and risk factors between the two vehicle types.
AI | Personalizing Cancer Care with Artificial Intelligence
AI is now enabling truly personalized care, however, realizing this promise will require overcoming major regulatory hurdles to get these novel technologies safely into clinical practice
Cracking Open the Neural Black Box
With neural data carrying the very fingerprints of our identities, histories, and personalities, a new report discovers a multitude of ambiguities in the approach to 'brain' data privacy amongst Tech companies
AI | MHRA – Harnessing New Technology While Ensuring Public Safety?
While AI promises major benefits like faster treatment, more personalized care, and improved access to treatment, it also risks introducing new challenges if not properly governed. The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) faces the complex task of enabling innovation while protecting patients
AI | Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Healthcare – EFPIA
The European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (EFPIA) outlines their vision for maximizing the benefits of AI while ensuring patient safety and privacy. This postion paper is for consideration by legislators and regulators of the emerging AI frameworks.
AI | Detecting COVID-19 in Lungs with Deep Learning
Over the past few years, researchers have made great strides in applying machine learning and artificial intelligence to medical imaging. One area that has shown promise is using deep neural networks (DNNs) to analyze lung ultrasound images and detect signs of COVID-19
AI | Hallucinations and Illusions of AI in Science
A new perspective paper published in Nature warns that an overreliance on AI comes with epistemic risks that could undermine the very goals of increased productivity and objectivity that AI promises. See the April DarkDrug Editorial based on this paper
Rethinking Progress in an Age of AI
Is AI really expanding our thinking or are we deluding ourselves?
AI | Can AI Assist in Peer Review?
The constant growth in research output has placed tremendous strain on this system as the number of papers requiring expert evaluation increases each year. Could artificial intelligence (AI) offer a solution by assisting reviewers or automating certain tasks?
- New algorithm boosts multitasking in quantum...on December, 2024 at 4:56 pm
When a quantum computer processes data, it must translate it into understandable quantum data. Algorithms that carry out this 'quantum compilation' typically optimize one target at a time. However, a team has created an algorithm capable of optimizing multiple targets at once, effectively enabling […]

Nanostructured two-dimensional gold monolayers offer possibilities in catalysis, electronics, and nanotechnology.
- Shape-changing device helps visually impaired...on December, 2024 at 4:54 pm
A groundbreaking piece of navigation technology that uses the ability to sense information through touch can help people with visual impairment perform a location task as well as sighted people, according to new research.
- 10,000 times faster than traditional methods: New...on December, 2024 at 4:54 pm
For human researchers, it takes many years of work to discover new super-resolution microscopy techniques. The number of possible optical configurations of a microscope -- for example, where to place mirrors or lenses -- is enormous. Researchers have now developed an artificial intelligence (AI) […]
- Delivering medicines with microscopic 'flowers'on December, 2024 at 4:54 pm
Using microparticles consisting of extremely thin petals, medicines can be delivered via the bloodstream in a precisely targeted manner, for example to a tumour or blood clot. Ultrasound and other acoustic procedures guide the particles through the body and reveal their locations. This makes the […]
After 11 years, Boston Dynamics has said goodbye to its humanoid robot ATLAS HD. The robotics company says it’s time for ATLAS to “kick back and relax” in retirement, letting the new all electric ATLAS take over. This video was shared to remember ATLAS HD’s great moments and those not so great.
Header Banner: Speed is the name of the game. The DarkDrug logo shows an Intel Xeon microchip die. Xeon is a brand of x86 microprocessors designed, manufactured, and marketed by Intel, targeted at the non-consumer workstation, server, and embedded system markets. It was introduced in June 1998. The advent ofoptical fibre cable has allowed the speed of data transmission to reach dizzy heights (shown in the DarkDrug logo). The field of applied science and engineering concerned with the design and application of optical fibers is known as fibre optics. The term was coined by Indian physicist Narinder Singh Kapany, who is widely acknowledged as the father of fibre optics.
