UCR computer scientists team up with Google scientists to develop an artificial intelligence model that detects fake videos — even when manipulations go far beyond face swaps and altered speech.
While artificial intelligence, or AI, is transforming industries, its environmental impact is often overlooked. Shaolei Ren, an associate professor of electrical and computer engineering at UC Riverside, took to a TED Talk stage last fall in Vienna, Austria, to discuss a hidden consequence of AI’s rapid expansion. In his talk...
Significant growth in electricity use in California in the coming decades calls for systemic, well-coordinated, proactive, collaborative, and equitable upgrades to state’s electrical grid
UC Riverside professor Shaolei Ren remotely shared his research findings about the the environmental consequences of increasing AI processing demands to a United Nations committee meeting in Nairobi, Kenya.
Representing the United States, UCR professor Mihri Ozkan I will provide recommendations to a United Nations panel for emerging research and strategies needed to shape the future of direct air carbon capture technology and "its role in our collective quest for a carbon-neutral society."
Q&A forum: UC Riverside computer science and public policy experts discuss the proliferation of malicious deepfake content in public discourse.
UCR computer scientists identify method identified to double computer processing speed using existing hardware
Those working to establish a sustainable lithium mining industry in Southern California have gotten a surge of support with a new grant from the U.S. Economic Development Administration.
AI is creating inequitable environmental consequences in the form of water consumption to keep servers cool and air pollution from power plants that supply the electricity. But the tech companies could distribute their processing loads to avoid environmental injustices, UCR study finds.
As our computers and other electronic devices become faster and more powerful, they are coming closer to an undeniable physical limitation: heat generated by the electrons that carry information as they move through semiconductors. “Making heat is a fundamental limit that will prevent the further development of electronic devices. So...
UCR study the first time estimates the huge water footprint from running artificial intelligence queries that rely on the cloud computations done in racks of servers that must be kept cool in warehouse-sized data processing centers.
UCR team has shown in the laboratory the unique and practical function of newly created materials, which they called quantum composites, that may advance electrical, optical, and computer technologies.
