Agentic AI for Autonomous Things: Vision-Language-Action Models, Embodied Intelligence and Real-World Decision-Making

Durham University
Department of Computer Science
Artificial intelligence is moving beyond passive prediction towards systems that can reason, plan, interact and act. This shift is driving rapid progress in agentic AI - i.e., AI systems that can interpret goals, make decisions, use tools, coordinate with humans and operate in changing real-world environments.

Quantum spin liquids in Ce pyrochlores

Queen Mary University of London
School of Physical and Chemical Sciences
Quantum spin liquids (QSLs) are a state of matter predicted to be found in magnetic materials with strong quantum fluctuations. The spins in most magnetic materials form regular repeating patterns at sufficiently low temperature, but QSLs are very different. Read more
