As the world races to build artificial superintelligence, one maverick bioengineer is testing how much unprogrammed intelligence may already be lurking in our simplest algorithms to determine whether ...

Blanton’s Run the Code turns data and AI into interactive art. Open through August 2 alongside the Charles Butt modernism exhibition.

Modern video coding architectures are at the forefront of addressing the increasing demands for efficient data compression, high-resolution broadcasting, and real-time processing in a global ...

In the field of computer science, there is perhaps no more fundamental task than to sort. Bubble, heap, merge—take your pick. The methods for reordering data inside a computer have been theorized to ...

It’s almost comical how surprised we are at the pitfalls of artificial intelligence (AI). After all, we’ve been making movies for decades warning against the dangerous potential of sentient machines.

Lossy compression schemes can be based on a source model, as in the case of speech compression, or a user or sink model, as is somewhat the case in image compression. In this chapter we look at audio ...
