Robots that spare warehouse workers the heavy lifting
There are some jobs human bodies just weren’t meant to do. Unloading trucks and shipping containers is a repetitive, grueling task — and a big reason warehouse injury rates are more than twice the national average. The Pickle Robot Company wants its machines to do the heavy lifting. The company’s one-armed robots autonomously unload trailers, picking up boxes weighing up to 50 pounds and placing them onto onboard conveyor belts for warehouses of all types. The company name, […]

RAG Text Chunking Strategies: Optimize LLM Knowledge Access
Author(s): Abinaya Subramaniam Originally published on Towards AI. If retrieval is the search engine of your RAG system, chunking is the foundation the search engine stands on. Even the strongest LLM fails when the chunks are too long, too short, noisy, or cut at the wrong place. That is why practitioners often say: “Chunking determines 70% of RAG quality.” Good chunking helps the retriever find information that is complete, contextual, and relevant while bad chunking creates fragmented, out […]

Printable aluminum alloy sets strength records, may enable lighter aircraft parts
MIT engineers have developed a printable aluminum alloy that can withstand high temperatures and is five times stronger than traditionally manufactured aluminum. The new printable metal is made from a mix of aluminum and other elements that the team identified using a combination of simulations and machine learning, which significantly pruned the number of possible combinations of materials to search through. While traditional methods would require simulating over 1 million possible combinations of materials, the team’s new machine […]

Checking the quality of materials just got easier with a new AI tool
Manufacturing better batteries, faster electronics, and more effective pharmaceuticals depends on the discovery of new materials and the verification of their quality. Artificial intelligence is helping with the former, with tools that comb through catalogs of materials to quickly tag promising candidates. But once a material is made, verifying its quality still involves scanning it with specialized instruments to validate its performance — an expensive and time-consuming step that can hold up the development and distribution of new […]
