ELIZA Resurrected: World's First Chatbot Revived After 60 Years
ELIZA, the first-ever chatbot developed by MIT professor Joseph Weizenbaum in the 1960s, has been successfully revived using long-lost code. After being rediscovered in 2021, researchers restored the original software, which had been forgotten for 60 years. Despite its limitations, ELIZA was able to hold simple conversations, demonstrating how earl...

AI Enhances Northern Lights Classification and Geomagnetic Storm Forecasting
A breakthrough in auroral research, powered by artificial intelligence, has allowed scientists to classify over 700 million auroral images. This effort, using NASA's THEMIS dataset, will significantly enhance the prediction of geomagnetic storms, which can disrupt Earth's communication and security systems. Led by the University of New Hampshire, t...

New Study Uncovers Vital Ocean Processes for Carbon Storage and Climate Regulation
A new study has identified two crucial processes in preserving organic carbon beneath the ocean floor: sorption and molecular transformation. Conducted by scientists from the University of Manchester and the University of Leeds, the research highlights how these mechanisms keep carbon locked in sediments, preventing its release as carbon dioxide. A...

Scientists Predict Under Sea Volcano Eruption Near Oregon Coast in 2025
Axial Seamount, an undersea volcano located off the coast of Oregon, is showing signs of an impending eruption, with scientists predicting it could occur as early as 2025. The volcano’s surface has been swelling, and seismic activity is increasing, both of which mirror patterns seen before previous eruptions. Researchers have been closely monitor...

Robots May Soon Detect Emotions by Measuring Your Sweat, Scientists Say
According to research published in IEEE Access, scientists have identified skin conductance as a potential method for robots to detect human emotions. By measuring changes in skin conductivity caused by sweating, robots could distinguish between emotions like fear, humour, and familial bonding. This study, conducted by Tokyo Metropolitan University...

Octopuses May Become Earth's Next Dominant Species if Humans Go Extinct, Claims New Study
Experts believe octopuses could rise as the dominant species on Earth if humans were to face extinction, due to factors like climate change or war. With their advanced intelligence, adaptability, and ability to use tools, octopuses are seen as prime candidates for developing complex societies. While unlikely to fully adapt to land life, they could ...
