- KAIST and Microsoft Research Asia (MSRA) develop 'Neural Value Alignment (NVA),' a technology that uses brainwaves to detect cognitive mismatches between humans and AI

- AI distinguishes whether it misunderstood the goal itself or simply chose the wrong method, and corrects its own behavior accordingly, marking a shift from AI that follows commands to AI that can sense human intent

- Expected to serve as a next-generation human-AI collaboration technology for physical AI, BCI, autonomous driving, medical robotics, and personalized education

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly integrated in public health for disease surveillance, behavioral interventions, risk communication, and population health management. However, fragmented oversight and limited equity safeguards can allow AI systems to reinforce existing disparities and create new risks for marginalized populations. A recent analytical essay examines these challenges and outlines strategies for responsible AI use, including equity assessments, community-based validation, transparency, data sovereignty, and human oversight. 

Chiba University and a Finnish wireless power company will study how wireless power behaves inside an enclosed space as devices enter, leave, and change operating conditions.
