Cursor's New Bugbot Is Designed to Save Vibe Coders From Themselves
Anysphere, the company behind the wildly popular vibe coding platform Cursor, is officially launching a new tool that's designed to spot errors in code. The release comes as software developers are expected to code at a higher velocity than ever before due to the rise of AI-assisted coding. The new tool, Bugbot, integrates with Github, a platform where engineers keep their code. When a human or agent introduces changes, Bugbot automatically flags any errors. While that's crucial for human coders, it's particularly useful when using AI coding agents, which work incredibly fast and can introduce errors that are difficult for humans to spot and untangle.
Rise of the killer robots? Scientists develop an indestructible robotic hand that can withstand being pounded by pistons or bashed with a hammer
A huge, super-fast indestructible robot hand might seem like a terrifying prop from a science-fiction film. But this hefty 4.1kg (9.9lbs) hand is very real and is already being used to develop the next generation of AI robots. Designed by UK-based Shadow Robot Company, this three-fingered claw can go from fully open to closed in just 500 milliseconds. However, the robot hand is still tough enough to resist being bashed with hammers or pounded by pistons. That toughness is designed to help the hand survive the rigorous and often destructive process of teaching AI how to interact with the world.
These ChatGPT Rivals Are Designed to Play With Your Emotions
ChatGPT and its brethren are both surprisingly clever and disappointingly dumb. Sure, they can generate pretty poems, solve scientific puzzles, and debug spaghetti code. But we know that they often fabricate, forget, and act like weirdos. Inflection AI, a company founded by researchers who previously worked on major artificial intelligence projects at Google, OpenAI, and Nvidia, built a bot called Pi that seems to make fewer blunders and be more adept at sociable conversation. Inflection designed Pi to address some of the problems of today's chatbots.
Legendary musicians Duran Duran and artificial mind Huxley collaborate on an NFT photography…
When you hear the name Huxley, one of the first things that comes to mind is the classic dystopian novel, Brave New World. Set in the not so distant future, we are immersed into a world consumed and controlled by science and technology. Now, we are about to graced by that same imagination in the form of NFTs. Not the infamous author, but the artificial intelligence and programmable artist who lives in the Cloud. Designed by Nested Minds, Huxley is just what we described.
Designed to Cooperate: A Kant-Inspired Ethic of Machine-to-Machine Cooperation
This position paper highlights an ethic of machine-to-machine cooperation and machine pro-sociality, and argues that machines capable of autonomous sensing, decision-making and action, such as automated vehicles and urban robots, owned and used by different self-interested parties, and having their own agendas (or interests of their owners) should be designed and built to be cooperative in their behaviours, especially if they share public spaces. That is, by design, the machine should first cooperate, and then only consider alternatives if there are problems. It is argued that being cooperative is not only important for their improved functioning, especially, when they use shared resources (e.g., parking spaces, public roads, curbside space and walkways), but also as a favourable requirement analogous to how humans cooperating with other humans can be advantageous and often viewed favourably. The usefulness of such machine-to-machine cooperation are illustrated via examples including cooperative crowdsourcing, cooperative traffic routing and parking as well as futuristic scenarios involving urban robots for delivery and shopping. It is argued that just as privacy-by-design and security-by-design are important considerations, in order to yield systems that fulfil ethical requirements, cooperative-by-design should also be an imperative for autonomous systems that are separately owned but co-inhabit the same spaces and use common resources. If a machine using shared public spaces is not cooperative, as one might expect, then it is not only anti-social but not behaving ethically. It is also proposed that certification for urban robots that operate in public could be explored.

Samsung's Next Exynos Chips Will Be Designed By Artificial Intelligence
Recently, it issued a statement saying the next generation of mobile phone chips will be designed using AI. As Wired reported, Samsung will use the AI function (DSO.ai) FYI, Exynos chips are used in Samsung's smartphones and tablets (mainly in the Korean and European markets). Synopsys is one of the world's largest suppliers of chip design software (EDA). The chairman of this company said that DSO.ai is the first commercial AI software for processor design.

These Astonishing Minecraft Builds Were Years in the Making
Minecraft, the best-selling video game of all time, has been around for more than a decade. The procedurally generated survival sandbox is constantly evolving, playing host to everything from speedrun challenges and political dramas to lessons. But it's best known as digital Lego-- and it's seen some incredible creations over the years. For most, it's a time-consuming hobby, but a few have parlayed their passion into a professional career. Here are some of the most spectacular Minecraft creations that took years to build.

IBM Has Designed An AI System That Can Alter Your Opinions
IBM has designed an artificial intelligence system that can debate with humans. The company published a paper in the journal called Nature, where one of the team members described the AI system and how well it performed against a human opponent. Chris Reed, a professor in the University of Dundee has published a News & Views article in the same journal throwing light on the history and development of artificial intelligence as a disruptive technology based around the types of logic used in human arguments and the system created by IBM. As Reed explains in his piece, debating is a skill that humans have been perfecting for thousands of years. It's usually a type of discussion in which a person or a group persuades others that their opinion on a subject is right.
