Using artificial intelligence (AI) for warfare has been the promise of science fiction and politicians for years, but new research from the Georgia Institute of Technology argues only so much can be automated and shows the value of human judgment. “All of the hard problems in AI really are judgment and data problems, and the interesting thing…
Replacing the potent greenhouse gas SF6 in high-voltage circuit breakers with a clean alternative is critical as the U.S. looks to upgrade its aging electrical infrastructure. Although well-known greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane contribute the most emissions, it is a lesser-known greenhouse gas,…
To help support the growth of startups and individuals working to advance automation and robotics, Amazon Robotics today announced it is providing a substantial investment over three years to the Georgia Institute of Technology’s Advanced Technology Development Center (ATDC). ATDC is Georgia’s technology startup…
The Institute for Data Engineering and Science, or IDEaS, is one of Georgia Tech’s 10 interdisciplinary research institutes. IDEaS provides the coordination and expertise necessary to link researchers across campus by strengthening Georgia Tech's position in big data. This installment of the Faces of Research Q&A…
On a crowded, vibrant planet with limited resources, the challenges facing society are increasingly complex. Whether it’s climate change, health disparities, or food security, the effective solutions will be multi-dimensional. Innovation this big requires teams of experts. Recognizing that, Georgia Tech’s Office of the Executive Vice President…
Keith McGreggor, Georgia Tech professor of the practice in the School of Interactive Computing, and director of VentureLab, has been named a Fulbright Specialist, one of only nine from Georgia Tech since the program began in 2001. The Specialist program, part of the larger Fulbright exchange offering that includes Fulbright…
Researchers William Sharp and Nicoleta Serban want kids to eat what’s good for them, and they want the healthcare industry to recognize the benefits – both physical and fiscal – of healthy eating habits for kids. Sounds simple. But it isn’t. About 5% of children struggle with significant feeding disorders. Many of them are sustained by feeding…
