While a great deal of research has gone into training computer models to infer someone’s emotional state based on their facial expression, that is not the most important aspect of human emotional intelligence, says MIT Professor Rebecca Saxe. Much more important is the ability to predict someone’s emotional response to events before they occur. Credits:Image: Christine Daniloff, MIT
Is AI capable of predicting someone’s emotional response to events before they occur – today?
District and citywide distributions of poverty and SNAP benefits. Gray colors indicate households above the federal poverty line while red denotes those below. The percentage of households below the poverty line that do not receive SNAP benefits are outlined in black.

Disinfectant powder is stirred in bacteria-contaminated water (upper left). The mixture is exposed to sunlight, which rapidly kills all the bacteria (upper right). A magnet collects the metallic powder after disinfection (lower right). The powder is then reloaded into another beaker of contaminated water, and the disinfection process is repeated (lower left).

Caption:MIT physicists have found a new way to switch superconductivity on and off in magic-angle graphene. This figure shows a device with two graphene layers in the middle (in dark gray and in inset). The graphene layers are sandwiched in between boron nitride layers (in blue and purple). The angle and alignment of each layer enables the researchers to turn superconductivity on and off in graphene with a short electric pulse. Credits:Credit: Courtesy of the researchers.

The ability to switch superconductivity on and off is a big step towards neuromorphic computing
