Portland teen develops training method to boost empathy in small AI models

·1 views

A 17-year-old student from Portland has developed a novel training technique that significantly improves the empathetic communication abilities of smaller artificial intelligence models. The method achieved high empathy ratings across multiple tests, demonstrating its effectiveness in making AI interactions feel more human-like. Unlike large AI systems, smaller models typically run on personal devices and have historically struggled with nuanced conversational skills. The student's research suggests a practical path toward deploying more emotionally intelligent AI on everyday consumer devices.

NASA-Backed Scientists Turn Plastic Waste Into Edible Protein Cookies

Researchers supported by NASA are developing a method to convert plastic bottles and agricultural waste into edible proteins and vitamins. The process relies on genetically engineered yeast that breaks down these materials into consumable food components. The resulting product, called microbites, is formed into small cookie-shaped portions. Beyond space travel, the project aims to tackle global food scarcity and plastic pollution simultaneously. Scientists expect the technology could be ready for widespread use within the next few years.
