KAIST researchers built a 3D digital twin of a commercial graphite anode to analyze degradation during fast charging. The study shows that uneven binder distribution—invisible in electrode-wide averages—drives lithium plating and stress concentration, pointing to spatial design as key for durable fast-charging batteries.
Smartphones read smudged or torn QR codes without hesitation. Behind this lies mathematical redundancy from Reed-Solomon coding—the same method used in music CDs—and four error-correction levels (L, M, Q, H) that let users choose the trade-off between correction capability and data capacity for different use cases.
TamperBench, presented at KDD '26 by an international research team including the University of Waterloo, shows that safety mechanisms in all 21 open-weight LLMs tested could be neutralized. The findings expose the limits of existing defense techniques and raise new questions for public procurement and safety evaluation.
Google has added legal-specific skills and connectors to its existing Gemini Enterprise platform. The new offering handles contract processing and legal research within existing permission structures, but pricing and real-world accuracy remain undisclosed.
Large earthquakes have struck around the world in quick succession, making them feel more frequent. Statistics show their frequency is average or even below average. Better monitoring technology, damage in densely populated areas, and psychological biases in media coverage all help create the misperception.
A Durham University study estimates depleted North Sea oil and gas fields could store 3,659 TWh of hydrogen—over seven years of the UK's projected 2040 electricity demand. But Centriga's Rough project, the only concrete plan so far, would add just 10 TWh, underscoring the gap between theory and implementation.
Taiwanese prosecutors allege that NVIDIA and Supermicro staff bypassed internal sales screening from within, funneling 74 B300-equipped servers to China. The case exposes how whitelists and on-site checks alone cannot stop internal collusion.
CBAK aims to expand its Nanjing Phase 2 cylindrical cell production capacity from 3 GWh to a long-term target of 18 GWh. But the existing 3 GWh line is still ramping up, and recovery of both daily output and gross margin will determine whether the plan is achievable.
SpaceX plans to launch Vera Rubin-based AI satellites in Q4 2027. We examine what differs from ground-based racks, the average 175kW heat dissipation challenge, and where FCC approval stands.
Perplexity has released Portable Computer, which moves its AI agent's execution engine onto NVIDIA DGX Spark. Sensitive data stays on the device, while searches and harder reasoning tasks are handed off to the cloud only with permission.
