Although the use of passwords dates back to ancient times, cybersecurity experts have long pushed for their elimination. That may have been an impossible task in the days of ancient Rome, but with the help of modern technology, humanity could move beyond passwords to a world of easier and more secure authentication methods. they say. It may be easier said than done, but there's no better…

These AI-enabled devices promised to reduce dependence on smartphones, but now everyone is wondering why they aren't apps in the first place. I don't know if we'll be using Rabbits and AI Pins five years from now (and if we are, I hope we'll be able to set alarms by then). However, many of the technologies currently in use received terrible early reviews.Early reviews of a device are important because they can make or break the hardware, the company that manufactured…

In an age where new AI startups seem to be everywhere, Guo is making his company Pika stand out with software that allows anyone to type in a few words and get crisp video clips in response. It is working. Mr. Guo started Pika in April 2023. This was born out of her work as a graduate student at Stanford University, which focused on creating content using AI, and a setback when she was trying to create a short film. (She designed an algorithm that took live-action footage and made it look like animation.) “I realized that the process of…

Dating back to the 1960s, the Great Race of Utah Technological University (UT) Campus Recreation has captivated and captivated students.
