MIT engineers developed a training method for multiagent systems, such as large numbers of drones, that can guarantee their safe operation in crowded environments. Drone shows are an increasingly ...

Back in 1982, the CIA uncovered a plot by the Soviet Union to steal industrial software for controlling its rapidly expanding network of natural-gas pipelines. In response, the agency modified the ...

MIT researchers have developed a way to help people with amputation or paralysis regain limb control. Instead of using electricity to stimulate muscles, they used light. Here, Guillermo Herrera-Arcos ...

Artificial intelligence researchers at MIT have developed a virtual reality system for robots that allows humans to control them remotely. The system works by using hand controllers and multiple ...

When AI systems can control multiple sources simultaneously, the potential for harm explodes. We need to keep humans in the loop. AI agents have set the tech industry abuzz. Unlike chatbots, these ...

For decades, synthetic biologists have been developing gene circuits that can be transferred into cells for applications such as reprogramming a stem cell into a neuron or generating a protein that ...
