In the coming years, a nuclear power plant on the shores of Lake Michigan could become the first in the country to restart operations after shutting down.

The Nuclear Option It's no secret that keepin an AI data center running requires an immense amount of power. To meet those skyrocketing energy demands, experts are now looking for alternative sources, the BBC reports, including small nuclear reactors that could power individual data centers. "Our industry has to find another source of power," Digital […]

Meet Clarice Phelps, she is a Tennessee State University graduate who has been recognized for helping to discover an element.

MIT community members Marc Baldo, Jacopo Buongiorno, Hsiao-hua Burke, and 13 additional alumni were elected to the National Academy of Engineering for 2024.

Late last month, I received a message. This message came from our old friend, coolwulf Jiang Hao. The content was about coolwulf's new project—NeuralRad. In his words, it is "the first free organ and tumor segmentation cloud service in history." Just upload a CT or MRI scan, and AI can automatically identify and segment whole body organs within a few minutes.
