AI developed by University of Colorado Spots Fraudulently Published Journals

Researchers from the University of Colorado Boulder have developed an AI tool. It is designed to detect predatory scientific journals. These journals often charge authors high fees to publish research without conducting proper peer review.The AI system analysed the websites of 15,200 open-access journals and flagged over 1,400 as potentially fraudulent. Human reviewers later confirmed that more than 1,000 of those titles showed signs of being predatory. The study was published in Science Advances on August 27, 2025. AI focused on Key Indicators The AI tool was trained using data from the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ). This is…

The New Frontlines: How AI is Redefining Warfare and Peace

The New Frontlines: How AI is Redefining Warfare and Peace

Warfare has always evolved with technology—from swords to firearms, from tanks to missiles. But now, we are entering an era where the lines between combat zones and codebases are blurring. One of the most striking examples of this was recently witnessed in India through Operation Sindoor. The operation served its immediate defense purpose. It also showed how advanced technologies are becoming a part of national defense strategies. It has spilled over into unexplored, often invisible realms like cyber operations, artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, and post-conflict rehabilitation. Globally, this transformation is evident. The American defense-tech company Anduril Industries has unveiled a…

China’s Dark Factories: The Future of Fully Autonomous Manufacturing

China’s Dark Factories: The Future of Fully Autonomous Manufacturing

The Next Industrial Revolution The rise of fully autonomous dark factories is redefining global manufacturing. AI, IoT, robotics, and data-driven automation fuel these high-tech facilities. They operate 24/7 without human intervention. This maximizes efficiency, precision, and scalability. What Are Dark Factories? A dark factory is a manufacturing facility that functions entirely without human workers. AI-powered robots, IoT-connected machinery, and advanced automation handle every step of production. They eliminate labor costs and human error. These technologies ensure consistent quality and efficiency. Since no workers are needed, these factories can run without lights, reducing energy consumption and operational expenses. Key Features of…

Generative AI Boom, A Threat or Opportunity for India’s Workforce?

Generative AI Boom, A Threat or Opportunity for India’s Workforce?

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is rising rapidly. The progress of large language models (LLMs) has also been swift. These are among the most transformative technological advancements of recent times. However, as with previous waves of automation, these breakthroughs have also triggered economic anxieties. The Luddite movement in 19th-century England protested the impact of mechanization on textile jobs. Today’s workforce has similar fears about AI-driven job displacement. But how concerned should India be? Some of the biggest names in global technology are at the forefront of AI innovation. These include Google (Gemini), Microsoft (Co-Pilot), Meta (MetaAI with Llama), X/Twitter (Grok), Anthropic…

NVIDIA vs. DeepSeek: A New Era in AI Hardware Competition

Recently, the electronics and microprocessors giant NVIDIA, which had risen to join the trillion-dollar club, with companies like Amazon and Apple, faced a severe and dangerous issue. In one day, the company lost a record-breaking $593bn of its market value. The highest amount ever lost by a company on the stock exchange in a single day! The company, known for its computer processors and high-end graphics cards, had entered the field of AI, planning to reach its pinnacle as it had for the other fields in which the company ventured. This took the attention of many people, gaining them a…
