Claudia Fischbach-Teschl, director of the Meinig School of Biomedical Engineering, was appointed leader of Engineering Innovations in Medicine, an initiative to transform human health through data-driven innovation and interdisciplinary collaboration.
A team of Cornell computer science researchers has developed a way to “watermark” light in videos, which they can use to detect if video is fake or has been manipulated, another potential tool in the fight against misinformation.
An investigation into Axie Infinity, a blockchain-based video game where users receive cryptocurrency tokens for playing, provides a case study for the possible future of Web3, a decentralized, community-run internet.
Manipulating mouse brains during sleep improved their ability to remember new experiences that would normally be forgotten – a finding with important implications for treating Alzheimer’s disease.
People usually strive to be their true, authentic selves, but this fall, five master’s students at Cornell Tech adopted not only alter egos but also “bad intent,” in an effort to make AI safer for health workers serving people with diabetes.
OpenAI announced two reasoning models that developers can use to classify a range of online safety harms. The tech company said organizations can configure the new models to their specific policy needs.
