Technology tamfitronics Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the construction industry. As we enter a new era of construction technology, it’s important to understand what Artificial Intelligence (AI) is and how it offers unique solutions to enhance the productivity and performance of construction professionals. Let’s examine how artificial intelligence is redefining the construction industry. Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Deep LearningArtificial Intelligence is a field of computer science that develops and studies large amounts of data to mimic the way humans solve problems. The roots of AI can be traced back to the 1950s with pioneers like Arthur Samuel helping to design ways for machines to do things that humans presently do - only faster.You may have experienced AI in Amazon’s Alexa or Apple’s Siri. Have you ever said, “Hey Siri, what’s this song?” Then you may have experienced...

Credit: Kyle Palmer / PPPL Communications DepartmentNew research boosts our understanding of a likely candidate for next-generation computer chips.Scientists at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory are advancing semiconductor technology by developing thinner, more efficient materials called transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). These materials, only a few atoms thick, could lead to more compact and powerful computer chips. The research also investigates the role of defects within these materials, which can affect their electrical properties and potentially enhance their functionality.The Evolution of Computer ChipsSilicon computer chips have served us well for more than half a century. The tiniest features on chips currently sold are approximately 3 nanometers — a startlingly small size given that a human hair is roughly...
