zdnet.com Elyse Betters Picaro 2025-09-30 09:00:20

Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET I started noticing something very annoying at the beginning of the year: I'd set my iPhone alarm for 7 a.m., only to sleep right through it. At first I assumed it was my mistake -- maybe I'd accidentally left the ringer volume all the way down.

Somewhere between frustration and desperation, I installed a third-party alarm app to try and

Imagine a downtown urban street on a traffic-heavy Saturday night. Now, add a severe snowstorm and an autonomous vehicle that safely navigates it all, despite fogged-up cameras, unpredictable pedestrians in oversized outerwear, streetlights throwing glare off a dozen wet surfaces, and the snow itself, which all but obliterates the visibility of traffic signs and lane markers. A computer vision (CV) system that could make this safe navigation possible would revolutionize not only autonomous

More broadly, the LCDM represents our best understanding of how the universe works. But there’s a problem.
