          Robot Achieves Complex Surgery Autonomously Through AI Training

          A surgical robot trained on real procedure videos performed a critical phase of gallbladder removal autonomously, adapting to unexpected situations and responding to voice commands. This breakthrough shows how artificial intelligence can combine precision with the flexibility needed for real-world medicine.

          Can AI Truly Grasp Colorful Metaphors Without Seeing Color?

          A new study tested how humans and ChatGPT understand color metaphors, revealing key differences between lived experience and language-based AI. Surprisingly, colorblind and color-seeing humans showed similar comprehension, suggesting vision isn’t essential for interpreting metaphors.

          Kids Outsmart AI in Puzzle Game That Builds Critical Thinking

          A new puzzle-based game helps children recognize where artificial intelligence still struggles. The game features ARC tasks—visual logic puzzles that are easy for humans but hard for AI—and allows kids to compare their answers with chatbot responses. Even when AI gets the right answer, its explanation is often wrong, teaching kids to question confidently stated misinformation.

          AI Facial Analysis Detects PTSD

          Diagnosing PTSD in children is often hindered by limited communication and emotional awareness, but new research is using AI to bridge that gap. By analyzing facial movements during interviews, researchers created a privacy-preserving tool that can identify PTSD-related expression patterns. Their system does not use raw video but instead tracks non-identifying facial cues such as eye gaze and mouth movement.

          People Prefer Human Empathy, Even When AI Says the Same Thing

          A new study shows that people rate empathic responses as more supportive and emotionally satisfying when they believe they come from a human—even if the same response is AI-generated. Across nine experiments with over 6,000 participants, responses labeled as human were consistently seen as more genuine, especially when they involved emotional sharing and care.

          Death Isn’t the End: AI Brings Lost Voices Back to Life

          A new paper explores how generative AI is transforming the way we interact with the dead, from virtual reality reunions to lifelike digital avatars. These “generative ghosts” can remember, plan, and even evolve—offering real-time conversations that go far beyond pre-recorded memorials.

          AI Reveals How Your Words Reflect Personality

          Researchers have shown that AI can detect personality traits from written text and, crucially, now understand how these models make decisions. By applying explainable AI techniques like integrated gradients, the team uncovered how specific words and linguistic patterns contribute to predictions based on major psychological frameworks.

          Why Children Learn Language Faster Than AI

          Despite AI’s massive processing power, children still far outperform machines in learning language—and a new framework helps explain why. Unlike AI systems that passively absorb text, children learn through multisensory exploration, social interaction, and self-driven curiosity.

          AI Generates Relatable Empathy Experiences

          Researchers have developed an AI tool called EmoSync that boosts empathy by tailoring emotional analogies to each user’s personality and life experiences. Unlike traditional empathy tech that assumes uniform emotional responses, EmoSync uses a large language model (LLM) to map personal traits and generate custom scenarios that resonate more deeply. In a study of over 100 participants, those using EmoSync showed significantly better understanding of others’ emotions than with conventional methods. The technology represents a new frontier in emotion-aware AI, aiming to foster authentic interpersonal understanding in complex social environments.

          Your Brain Instantly Sees What You Can Do, AI Still Can’t

          New research shows that the human brain automatically recognizes what actions an environment affords—like walking, climbing, or swimming—even without conscious thought. Using MRI scans, researchers found unique activity in visual brain regions that went beyond simply processing objects or colors, revealing deep neural encoding of “affordances,” or possible actions.
