Modern cars are pretty high-tech with features like lane departure warning, automatic braking for obstacles, blind spot warning, etc. Now the Ministry of Transport wants to technologically upgrade the country's infrastructure as well. The country has just announced plans to roll out so-called “vehicle-to-everything” technology nationwide in an effort to make roads safer. Vehicle-to-everything technology, known as V2X, will enable cars, trucks and even bikes and scooters to communicate with each other and warn of potential collisions. They can also “give priority to emergency vehicles,” says Sarah Kaufman, director of the Rudin Center for Transportation at New York University. “For…

This article is part of our NFL Picks series. NFL futures betting: How many wins will the Packers have in 2024? Betting on team wins and other season-long futures requires patience; if you bet during the preseason, payouts usually don't come in until January.

Nvidia's research division recently released an AI weather model that scientists hope will improve local-level forecasts of short-term weather events — a step forward in the evolving field of atmospheric science where machine learning is playing a larger role. While scientists around the world are still studying the complex physics of clouds and storms, AI is increasingly helping to fill in some of the blanks. “AI is completely changing how we simulate the atmosphere,” said Nvidia researcher Mike Pritchard. Solving the physical equations for future weather phenomena is typically done on huge, expensive supercomputers, he said, “which limits the resolution…

Every winter, I enjoy attending the Studio Ghibli film festival at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry. There’s a great nostalgia among certain Americans these days, a desire to relive pieces of their turn-of-the-millennium childhood and I won’t pretend to be an exception. Seeing classic films like Porco Rosso and Princess Mononoke on the IMAX screen can recreate what that time meant for many of us, for just a little while, and catching The Boy and the Heron this year was almost as magical. There’s one such film the museum shows that I’ll probably only see once, though: Isao…
