New Delhi: While the general consensus on AI “hallucinations” – the generation of plausible but false information – are concerning, scientists are increasingly recognising their potential for driving innovation and discovery, report has said, adding that these unexpected outputs from AI models are proving surprisingly useful in fields ranging from medicine to climate science. According … Read more
New Delhi: Researchers have developed an innovative AI-enabled mortality calculator that can estimate an individual’s proximity to death. Published in Lancet Digital Health, this study highlights how AI-powered electrocardiograms (ECGs) can predict future health issues and mortality risk. However, this technology is not yet a part of standard medical practice. Introducing AIRE: The AI-ECG Risk … Read more

New Delhi: A newly developed model could predict an individual’s chances of developing osteoporosis, in which the bones degrade and become weak and brittle, according to a study. Testing the AI-based model on real-world health data of people, researchers identified the ten most important factors for predicting risk of osteoporosis, including weight, age and grip … Read more
CSIR-Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB) scientists have found out that the invasive armoured sailfin catfish has spread to 60% in the water bodies of Eastern Ghats, damaging the fishing nets and the eco-system also. The fish species was once introduced for its unique appearance and its ability to clean algal growth in tanks … Read more
