Researchers from Stanford University early today published the latest edition of their annual AI Index Report, detailing the growing influence of artificial intelligence technologies on our society and the global economy. The Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence, known as Stanford HAI, has been publishing its annual reports on the state of the AI industry since 2017. This year’s edition, the eighth, is the “most comprehensive” report to date, spanning more than 430 pages. The authors say it’s arriving at a critical juncture as the influence of AI across society rapidly accelerates with the emergence of increasingly capable and sophisticated…
TESS, launched in 2018, is the first telescope to scan the entire sky for planets by shifting its field of view every month.The disintegrating planet, named BD+05 4868 Ab, is one of just four planets of its kind that scientists have discovered.Astronomers said the cause of BD+05 4868 Ab’s rapid disintegration is its proximity to its star — 50 times closer than Earth is to the sun — and its relatively small size.“The planet got so close to its star that the heat started evaporating its surface,“ said Avi Shporer, a collaborator on the discovery and a research scientist at…
Between 2013 and 2024, global private sector investment in artificial intelligence (AI) has surged, with a few countries leading the charge. Recent data reveals that 12 nations accounted for the bulk of global AI funding during this period, underscoring a growing international race for technological leadership. The United States leads by a wide margin, raising $471 billion—more than the rest of the world combined. China follows with $119 billion, while the United Kingdom, Canada, and Israel round out the top five with $28 billion and $15 billion each, respectively.

Join our daily and weekly newsletters for the latest updates and exclusive content on industry-leading AI coverage. Learn More Agentic interoperability is gaining steam, but organizations continue to propose new interoperability protocols as the industry continues to figure out which standards to adopt. A group of researchers from Carnegie Mellon University proposed a new interoperability protocol governing autonomous AI agents’ identity, accountability and ethics. Layered Orchestration for Knowledgeful Agents, or LOKA, could join other proposed standards like Google’s Agent2Agent (A2A) and Model Context Protocol (MCP) from Anthropic. In a paper, the researchers noted that the rise of AI agents underscores…
Overwhelmed by online shopping? Maybe a robot can help.The viral ChatGPT bot is adding shopping features to its powers, extending the reach of its artificial intelligence (AI) into an area traditionally dominated by media sites and tech rivals such as Amazon and Google.It said the update would allow users to see prices and reviews more easily, as well as find direct links to purchase personalised product recommendations.Parent company OpenAI said its selections would be “chosen independently and are not ads”.The company, which sparked the frenzy over AI in 2022 with its technological advances, debuted its search tool last year. It…
Hugging Face, the startup best known for the AI developer platform of the same name, is selling a programmable, 3D-printable robotic arm that can pick up and place objects and perform a few other basic chores. Called the SO-101, the arm is the follow-up to Hugging Face’s previous robotic arm, the SO-100, released last year. The company’s robotics division, LeRobot, partnered with French robotics firm The Robot Studio to debut the SO-100 for around $100 in October. Hugging Face teamed up with The Robot Studio once again for the SO-101, as well as with robotics store WowRobo, IoT hardware supplier…
