Can AI think? The short answer is no, at least not in the way humans think. AI does not have incentives, opinions, or empathy. Even two-year-olds possess something that our artificial systems lack – the capacity to think in terms of cause and effect, according to Peter Gärdenfors, professor of Cognitive Science at Lund University. Since ChatGPT was introduced to great fanfare in 2022, the debate a

The boundaries between biology and technology are becoming blurred. Researchers at Linköping, Lund, and Gothenburg universities in Sweden have successfully grown electrodes in living tissue using the body’s molecules as triggers. The result, published in the journal Science, paves the way for the formation of fully integrated electronic circuits in living organisms. Linking electronics to biologic

Fanny Hellgren's solo exhibition features several paintings from the artist's latest series. The astonishing canvases radiate soothing and pleasant feelings and by contemplating these non-figurative compositions one after another, one can sense a continuous rhythm. A pulsation, emanating from layers upon layers of acrylic paint, attracts us to track and understand its language and the dialogue tha

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Threats and hate speech from outside are certainly very trying. But could they be even worse when they come from within the organisation? What if you barely dare to go to work because you get threatened – or you are not even allowed in to work because you are accused of threatening someone else? The vice dean of the F

KRÖNIKA. Den 3 oktober – tisdagen i den så kallade Nobelveckan – kommer att gå till historien som dagen då LTH och Lunds universitet fick sitt allra första egna Nobelpris. Samtidigt var det en arbetsdag bland många, för oss alla. Kommunikatören Evelina Lindén som delar sin arbetstid mellan Fysicum och LTH:s kansli skriver om hur det var att plötsligt se sin arbetsplats invaderas av media. Det är k

In recent years, RNA molecules, with the ability to affect or turn off pathogenic genes, have become promising drug candidates in several areas. However, it has been a challenge to develop techniques to deliver the RNA molecules into the cells where they have an effect. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have now developed a sensitive technique that makes it possible to study the delivery in

Hur trovärdiga är forskningsresultat egentligen? En ny biologistudie visar att samma data kan ge olika svar beroende på analysmetod – vilket väcker frågor om vetenskapliga slutsatsers stabilitet. För att stärka trovärdigheten behöver forskare bli bättre på att redovisa metoderna.
