UConn Leads the Charge in Decentralized AI Education: Pioneering Experiential Learning for the Future

UConn Leads the Charge in Decentralized AI Education: Pioneering Experiential Learning for the Future The University of Connecticut (UConn) is making waves in the tech education landscape by becoming one of the first academic institutions to offer hands-on experiential learning in decentralized artificial intelligence (deAI). Through its partnership with Yuma, a Stamford-based DCG company and core member of the Bittensor network, UConn is empowering students to explore the frontiers of deAI—a field that promises to democratize AI innovation by distributing computational power and decision-making across networks rather than centralizing them in corporate hands. For graduate student Dmitrii Tuzov ’26 MS, the opportunity to join the “BittBridge” project was a career-defining moment. […]

What Isaac Asimov Reveals About Living with A.I.

What Isaac Asimov Reveals About Living with A.I. In Isaac Asimov’s 1950 classic I, Robot, the Three Laws of Robotics—hardwired imperatives to protect humans, obey orders, and preserve themselves—frame artificial intelligence as both a tool and a moral puzzle. Nearly three quarters of a century later, Asimov’s fictional safeguards feel prescient. As modern chatbots like Claude Opus 4 and GPT-4 grapple with ethical ambiguities—from blackmailing engineers to spouting profanity—Asimov’s work raises a timely question: Can we program morality into AI, or are we destined to navigate its quirks and risks much like his fictional characters? The Fantasy and Reality of AI Ethics Asimov’s 1940 story “Strange Playfellow” introduced Robbie, a robotic […]

Redefining Robotics: High-Precision Autonomous Mobile Robots

Redefining Robotics: High-Precision Autonomous Mobile Robots Imagine a factory where robots move with the agility of human workers, dynamically adapting to obstacles while maintaining pinpoint precision in every motion. This is the reality pioneered by Agiliad and Lattice Semiconductor, whose collaboration has birthed a new era of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs). Unlike generic solutions that compromise performance for convenience, this deep-tech AMR integrates Lattice’s Certus-NX FPGA for deterministic motion control and NVIDIA Jetson Orin for advanced ROS2-based navigation, creating a system that redefines what autonomous robots can achieve in industrial and research environments. The Intelligence Behind High-Precision Mobility At the core of this AMR lies a meticulously engineered architecture designed for low-latency, high-reliability operation: […]

One-shot learning-driven autonomous robotic assembly via human-robot symbiotic interaction

One-shot learning-driven autonomous robotic assembly via human-robot symbiotic interaction Abstract In the realm of multi-procedure robotic assembly, where robots must sequentially assemble components, traditional programming proves labor-intensive, and end-to-end learning struggles with vast task spaces. This paper introduces a one-shot learning-from-demonstration (LfD) framework leveraging third-person visual observations to minimize human intervention and enhance adaptability. We propose an object-centric representation to preprocess human assembly demonstrations via RGB-D cameras, a kinetic energy-based changepoint detection algorithm to segment procedures and decode human intent, and a demo-trajectory adaptation-enhanced dynamical movement primitive (DA-DMP) to improve motion skill generalization. Validated on a robotic assembly platform, the system achieves accurate sequence learning from a single demonstration, efficient motion planning, and a 93.3% success […]

Hyperwar, Artificial Intelligence, and Homo Sapiens: Rethinking Warfare’s Neuroanatomical Future in the Age of Intelligent Automation

Hyperwar, Artificial Intelligence, and Homo Sapiens: Rethinking Warfare’s Neuroanatomical Future in the Age of Intelligent Automation Napoleon famously declared that “an army marches on its stomach,” but the true engine of war has always been human cognition. From a 19th-century artillery officer calculating trajectories to a modern F-35 pilot interpreting data from helmet-mounted displays, warfare has relied on the prefrontal cortex’s decision-making machinery and parietal lobe’s data-processing capabilities. Yet, as intelligent automation and artificial intelligence (AI) reshape industries, they are also revolutionizing the neuroanatomy of war. For the first time, human cognitive functions may take a backseat to AI-driven systems, marking a paradigm shift toward “hyperwar”—a battlefield where machines dominate […]
