This shows kids playing games.
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 [...]

Examples from nine categories of safety risks at construction sites that DroneDeploy can detect.
Last winter, during the construction of an affordable housing project on Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts, a 32-year-old worker named Jose Luis Collaguazo Crespo slipped off a ladder on the second floor and plunged to his death in the basement. He was one of more than 1,000 construction workers who die on the job each [...]
