Nvidia played a major role in developing graphics processors, which were designed for heavy-duty calculations.

"When we say they are simpler, they are not complex; there's nuance to it," Anand Raghunathan, Silicon Valley chair professor of electrical and computer engineering at Purdue University, told Investor's Business Daily. "They are complex in the sense that the amount of computation needed is massive, it's tremendous."

Purdue University associate professor Jing Gao with the School of Engineering, who studies artificial intelligence, said AI can be used at many stages in the criminal justice system. According to Gao, who also researches the technology's trustworthiness, AI is only as good as its model creators. It uses historical data to answer questions, but historical data is rooted in bias.

In the past, experiments with these floating diamonds had trouble preventing their loss in a vacuum and reading out the spin qubits, said Tongcang Li, a professor of electrical and computer engineering and physics and astronomy professor at Purdue, in a statement. However, in our work, we successfully levitated a diamond in a high vacuum using a special ion trap. For the first time, we could observe and control the behavior of the spin qubits inside the levitated diamond in high vacuum."

Range anxiety - the fear of not making it to the next charger before the battery dies - is widely cited as a major barrier to American EV ownership. This anxiety can be lessened in two ways: increasing battery size, which also drives up vehicle cost, or adding charging locations, said Steve Pekarek, a Purdue University professor specializing in power systems for EVs.

Purdue Summer Training, Awareness, and Readiness for Semiconductors (STARS) is an eight-week program that will be offered in summer 2024 to develop deep-tech skills like IC design, fabrication, and packaging, and semiconductor device and materials characterization. The STARS program has three tracks: chip design, semiconductor manufacturing, and advanced system integration and packaging.

As deepfakes improve and become more prevalent, so do the efforts to fight back. Researchers, like Ed Delp at Purdue University, have been working to create detection software that can identify Deepfakes in real time.

The brain behind the project is Purdue University's Steve Pekarek. The engineering professor is the lead researcher on the project, and he says the technology could make a transition to electric vehicles more attractive.

Santiago Torres-Arias, a professor at Purdue University's Center for Education and Research in Information Assurance and Security, said cybersecurity hacks have become more common at hospitals because of the types of patient data they store in their servers.

Another advantage of these programming tools is the ability to create a template for code, notes Saurabh Bagchi, a professor of electrical and computer engineering at Purdue University. Much as with prompt engineering, developers must provide these assistants with “the right kind of software requirements to produce a template, and then a software engineer can fill in the gaps,” he says.
