Daily Mirror publisher Reach reveals AI is already writing articles

1 hour ago

Daily Mirror publisher Reach published its first AI-written articles last week, CEO Jim Mullen revealed today.

During Reach’s 2022 earnings call, Mullen said the publisher was already using artificial intelligence to write articles, after the business announced it was considering the possibility last year. The first AI-written articles have appeared on local news site In Your Area last week.

“There are three AI-written articles about Newport for In Your Area,” Mullen said. “One of them was ‘Seven Things to do in Newport’: that was written by a bot.”

Mullen said, though, that Reach’s current AI strategy still also involved human journalists.

“It was based off of content from our journalists, and the decision to run it was made by the editor: that is responsible use of AI,” he said.

Soft Robot Developed That Easily Goes From Land To Water
by Aaron Aupperlee
March 16, 2023

Introduction:
(Futurity) Most animals can quickly transition from walking to jumping to crawling to swimming if needed without reconfiguring or making major adjustments. But most robots can’t.

“We were inspired by nature to develop a robot that can perform different tasks and adapt to its environment without adding actuators or complexity,” says study co-first author Dinesh K. Patel, a postdoctoral fellow in the Morphing Matter Lab in the School of Computer Science’sHuman-Computer Interaction Institute at Carnegie Mellon University.

“Our bistable actuator is simple, stable, and durable, and lays the foundation for future work on dynamic, reconfigurable soft robotics.”

The bistable actuator is made of 3D-printed soft rubber containing shape-memory alloy springs that react to electrical currents by contracting, which causes the actuator to bend. The team used this bistable motion to change the actuator or robot’s shape. Once the robot changes shape, it is stable until another electrical charge morphs it back to its previous configuration.

“Matching how animals transition from walking to swimming to crawling to jumping is a grand challenge for bio-inspired and soft robotics,” says Carmel Majidi, a professor in the mechanical engineering department.
