April 19, 2023 /Technology/ — A large language model (LLM) is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that is trained on a massive amount of text data. This data can be anything from books and articles to social media posts and code. LLMs are able to learn the statistical relationships between words and phrases, which allows them to generate text, translate languages, write different kinds of creative content, and answer your questions in an informative way. LLMs can be used for a variety of tasks, including: Continue reading →

In 1956, during a year-long trip to London and in his early 20s, the mathematician and theoretical biologist Jack D. Cowan visited Wilfred Taylor and his strange new “learning machine”. On his arrival he was baffled by the “huge bank of apparatus” that confronted him. Cowan could only stand by and watch “the machine doing its thing”. The thing it appeared to be doing was performing an “associative memory scheme” – it seemed to be able to learn how to find connections and retrieve data.

Green Hydrogen: IDTechEx Asks if It Can Be Cost Competitive

March 18, 2023InnovationArticles, Chemistry, Emerging technologies, Hydrogen, Hydrogen economy, Hydrogen station, Hydrogen technologies, Hydrogen vehicle, Low-carbon economy, Physical sciences, Sustainable technologies, Wateradmin

The clean hydrogen market is poised for growth, driven by decarbonization efforts and concerns around energy security. A number of ambitious targets and roadmaps are being set out by different governments and regions. Clean hydrogen can refer to a number of routes for producing hydrogen, but the primary among them are green and blue hydrogen. Blue hydrogen refers to hydrogen produced from natural gas or coal but with carbon emissions captured. Green hydrogen refers to the splitting of water via electrolyzers powered by renewable power sources. IDTechEx forecasts that the water electrolyzer market will grow to over US$120B by 2033.

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology is everywhere. Thanks to a lack of red tape, it’s transforming our homes, economies and cultures – from ChatGPT and virtual DJs, to facial recognition and predictive policing tools.

However, the rise of AI has also come at a significant cost. As we’ve discussed in recent weeks, AI often undermines our privacy, entrenches societal biases, and creates opaque systems that lack accountability.
