1. Dual-Use: From Space to Earth Life-Saving Robots
Dr. Alice Agogino, a UC-Berkeley mechanical engineering professor, developed, for NASA, a fleet of mobile, ultra-impact-resistant, remote-sensing robots that could protect sensitive scientific equipment during a drop from orbit onto the surface of a moon.
These robots are called squishy robots, and they have autonomous sensing power, remote control capabilities, and unprecedented impact durability.
After inventing these, Dr. Agogino realized that everything that made the squishy robots perfect for space would serve them equally well as part of an advanced guard of Earth-bound disaster responders, military applications, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), and package delivery.

2. Global Effort: Nvidia’s Power to Fight Climate Crisis – Earth Virtualization Engines (EVE) Initiative
Earth Virtualization Engines (EVE) initiative, is an international collaboration focused on climate science, high-performance computing, and AI. EVE aims to provide easily accessible kilometer-scale climate information. By leveraging AI emulators like FourCastNet, researchers can explore and compress vast amounts of climate data, aiding in the understanding of extreme weather events risks.
The goal of EVE is to create climate information systems of the future by harnessing AI and high-performance computing. NVIDIA’s CEO, Jensen Huang outlined three key advancements needed for this initiative:
- Simulating climate at high resolution and speed.
- Using AI to emulate climate physics accurately and turn raw data into actionable information
- Virtualizing massive climate data for easy access by policymakers and scientists.
NVIDIA’s CEO, Jensen Huang, highlighted the potential of AI and accelerated computing in driving climate research breakthroughs during his keynote speech at the Berlin Summit for the Earth Virtualization Engines (EVE) initiative.

3. Debunked Myths: 5 Myths About Medical AI, Debunked (Nature Medicine)
In 2015, a small research team at Google brainstormed how AI could help improve people’s health. They set out to explore whether they could train AI to identify diabetic retinopathy (DR), a leading and growing cause of preventable blindness and created ARDA.
Today, ARDA has screened over 200,000 patients in clinics around the world, from urban cities in the EU to rural communities in India.
To help others who may be embarking on a similar journey, they are sharing the key lessons learned in an article published in Nature Medicine.
Below are 5 myths debunked through their work:
- The more data, the better
- AI experts are all you need
- High AI performance equals clinical confidence
- It’s easy to fit AI into existing workflows
- Launch means success
