This is today's edition ofThe Download,our weekday newsletter that provides a daily dose of what's going on in the world of technology. Generative AI taught a robot dog to scramble around a new environment Teaching robots to navigate new environments is tough. You can train them on physical, real-world data taken from recordings made by humans, but thats scarce, and expensive to collect. Digital simulations are a rapid, scalable way to teach them to do new things, but the robots often fail when theyre pulled out of virtual worlds and asked to do the same tasks in the real one. Now, theres potentially a better option: a new system that uses generative AI models in conjunction with a physics simulator to develop virtual training grounds that more accurately mirror the physical world. Robots trained using this method worked with a higher success rate than those trained using more traditional techniques during real-world tests. Researchers used the system, called LucidSim, to train a robot dog in parkour, getting it to scramble over a box and climb stairs, despite never seeing any real world data. The approach demonstrates how helpful generative AI could be when it comes to teaching robots to do challenging tasks. It also raises the possibility that we could ultimately train them in entirely virtual worlds. Read the full story. Rhiannon Williams Africas AI researchers are ready for takeoff When we talk about the global race for AI dominance, the conversation often focuses on tensions between the US and China, and European efforts at regulating the technology. But its high time we talk about another player: Africa. African AI researchers are forging their own path, developing tools that answer the needs of Africans, in their own languages. Their story is not only one of persistence and innovation, but of preserving cultures and fighting to shape how AI technologies are used on their own continent. However, they face many barriers.

In Zimbabwe, farmers who have tried to stay put and adapt have found their efforts woefully inadequate in the face of new weather extremes. Droughts have already forced tens of thousands from their homes. But their desperate moves are creating new competition for water in the region, and tensions may soon boil over. Read the full story.

When we talk about the global race for AI dominance, the conversation often focuses on tensions between the US and China, and European efforts at regulating the technology. But its high time we talked about another player: Africa. AsMIT Technology Reviewhas written before, AI is creating anew colonial world order, where the technology is enriching a small minority of people at the expense of the rest of the world. African AI researchers are determined to change that. Theyre forging their own path, developing tools that answer the needs of Africans, in their own languages. However, they face many barriers. AI research is eye-wateringly expensive, and African startups and researchers get a fraction as much funding as their Western or Asian counterparts. They have to innovate and rely on open-source resources to do more with less. Despite that, the African AI story reflects not only persistence and innovation, but a determination to preserve cultures and shape how AI technologies are used on the continent.Read more herefrom Abdullahi Tsanni, who went to this years Deep Learning Indaba, a machine-learning conference held annually in Senegal, to learn about the opportunities and barriers the African AI scene faces.

Now read the rest of The Algorithm Deeper Learning Why AI could eat quantum computings lunch Tech companies have been funneling billions of dollars into quantum computers for years. The hope is that theyll be a game changer for fields as diverse as finance, drug discovery, and logistics. Those expectations have been especially high in physics and chemistry, where the weird effects of quantum mechanics come into play. In theory, this is where quantum computers could have a huge advantage over conventional machines. Enter AI:But while the field struggles with the realities of tricky quantum hardware, another challenger is making headway in some of these most promising use cases. AI is now being applied to fundamental physics, chemistry, and materials science in a way that suggests quantum computings purported home turf might not be so safe after all. Given the pace of recent advances, a growing number of researchers are now asking whether AI could solve a substantial chunk of the most interesting problems in chemistry and materials science before large-scale quantum computers become a reality.Read more from Edd Gent here.

By way of contrast, some social media users dismissedshocking images of the devastating recent floods in Spainas AI-generated, although they were entirely real. AI companies are getting comfortable offering their technology to the militaryMilitaries around the world have been pouring money into new technologies, including AI. Meta and Anthropic are the latest tech companies to start courting them, joining the likes of Google and OpenAI. (The Washington Post) OpenAI is shifting its strategy as the improvement in its AI tools slows downThe current paradigm in AI development is to make things bigger to make them better. But OpenAIs new model, code-named Orion, only performs slightly better than its predecessors. Instead, OpenAI is shifting to improving models after their initial training. (The Information)

ArchitectureNowrounds up this years most recognisable winners from across New Zealand and Australia, starting with this years World Building of the Year awarded to Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tmaki architects,fjcstudio.The world-renowned awards programme attracted 775 global entries this year, which were then shortlisted down to 461 projects. The awards festival taking place over two days, selected the very best projects from this shortlist using a Super Jury sourced from all over the globe, including editor of Architecture NZ,Chris Barton. Only 40-odd projects were category winners or received a Highly Commended award respectively. The remaining awards of Future Project of the Year, Landscape of the Year, World Interior of the Year and World Building of the Year went to a sole winner highlighting what a feat it is to be awarded in any of these awardcategories.World Building of theYearDarlington Public School in Australia byfjcstudioThe community school is located on the fringe of the city of Sydney, and has a strong connection to Aboriginal people embodied in itsredesign.The transformed school now seamlessly connects to its surroundings, offering glimpses of the inner courtyard from the main entrance, promoting a sense of privacy and community for the children, as well as providing facilities that are publicly accessible including the community hall, covered outdoor learning area andlibrary.WAF 2024 World Building of the Year, Darlington Public School in Australia by fjcstudio.Image: Brett BoardmanCollaboration took place with educational consultants and the school community to inform the brief, resulting in an inclusive learning environment by the architects. The redesign embraces the rich Indigenous culture through the artistic heritage of the school, conserving and displaying aboriginal artworks around the school to preserve stories of the country for future generations. A community garden with indigenous plants has also been created to teach students indigenous cooking andculture.The school continued to operate during construction, minimising time, cost and disruption. The building also embraces sustainability, with passive design elements such as sawtooth roofs angled to the sun, high-level glazing for indirect daylight, and protective curved screens for filtereddaylight.WAF 2024 World Building of the Year, Darlington Public School in Australia by fjcstudio.Image: Brett BoardmanAlessandro Rossi, Associate at fjcstudio commented: Its very humbling given the modest scale of the building its a little school project, so to have won against all the other big projects at WAF is a testament to the client and the community engagement that helped drive the design process. The real winners are the children who will spend time in the building - a place of enrichment for many years tocome.On behalf of the jury Paul Finch, Programme Director of the World Architecture Festival commented on: thevery highquality of several of this years finalists,not leastthe National Star Observatory in Cyprus, but the jurys unanimous decision was reached relativelyeasily.The result of the project is poetic, a building in which topography and landscape, inside and outside, form and materials, flow seamlessly in an unexpectedly delightful way. It is also an inspirational propositionabout the acknowledgement and reconciliation of historic difference a pointer to brighter, better futures forall.Warren and Mahoney receive three World Architecture FestivalAwardsThe New Zealand practice founded by the iconic architectural partnership of Miles Warren and Maurice Mahoney took home three awards in total at WAF2024.A category winner in Completed Projects for Higher Education & Research is the purpose-builtWaimarie Lincoln University Science Facility (also a NZIA 2024 Canterbury Architecture Awards Winner).The trans-Tasman practice won two further WAF awards for the University Technology of Sydney, National First Nations College.

Public Art Heritageis calling on urgent submissions to protect the iconic artworks in and around theCity-to-Sea Bridgeand Te Ngkau Civic Square, Wellington. The public artworks currently under threat are some of the most recognisable artworks in TeWhanganui-a-Tara.In theTe Ngkau Precinct Development Plan now being consulted on, the strengthening and retention of the City-to-Sea Bridge (by artists Paratene Matchitt, Rewi Thompson and John Gray, 1993) isnt presented as an option and is to be demolished. The Council is only consulting on new options to access the waterfront from Te Ngkau. It is also consulting on what it should prioritise during the development of the remaining parts of theprecinct.The retention of the City Gallery Wellington and refurbishment of the Town Hall and Library are already well underway, however, theMichael Fowler Centre byWarren and Mahoney is potentially underthreat.Says Public Art Heritage of the legacy of the Square and surrounding publicartworks:Conceived as a huge outdoor room with its large, purposefully designed bricked area as a gallery/stage floor, public art was at the heart of this vision. Kara Puketapu from theTenths Trust was consulted on the new square and it was decided bi-culturalism would be best reflected in the commissioned artworks by three senior Mori artists working at the height of their powers. Integrated into the precincts design, the resulting works are a tangible connection with the past, and an embodiment of thiskaupapa.Our research has clarified that the entire site encompassing the City-to-Sea Bridge, Te Aho a Maui Capital Discovery Place (including Thompsons elevated plaza maunga and paving that serves as its roof), the steps with Matt Pines Prow and Capital and forecourt of the square can be considered one integrated architectural and sculpturalinstallation.AffectedworksCity-to-Sea Bridge, currently scheduled to be demolished, by Paratene Matchitt, Rewi Thompson & John Gray, 1993.Image: Wood Wall 3 by Tony Hisgett from Birmingham, UKCity-to-Sea Bridge (x1) and connected artworks(x3):Paratene Matchitt,Rewi Thompsonand John Gray, City-to-Sea Bridge(1993)Rewi Thompson, Te Aho a Maui(1991)Matt Pine, Prow & Capital(1992)Athfield Architects, Nikau Palms(1992)The main plaza of Te Ngkau Civic Square showing Toi te Rito Maihis paving work.Image: Canuck85 via Wikipedia CommonsTe Ngkau Civic Square precinct artworks(x6):Toi Te Rito Maihi, title unknown (ptiki whriki pattern in brick work, main part of Civic Square), (c.1991)Neil Dawson, Ferns(1998/2018)Mary-Louise Brown, Seven Steps to Heaven(1999)Bruce Campbell, Axis of the Gate to Serendipity(1997)Alan Hobbs, Pig(1995)Jim Allen (TBC), Gibbs Memorial Fountain(1956)Artist unknown, triptych, Michael Flower Centre.Image: SuppliedMichael Fowler Centre artworks(x4):Gordon Crook, wall hangings(1983)Gordon Crook, banners(1983)Jock McEwen with Prisoners of Rimutaka Prison and Students of Petone (Hutt Valley) Technical Institute, Te Pou o Tauiwi me Te Pou o Wi Tako(1983)Artist unknown, triptych (refer to the image above).

Submitted by WA ContentsStaggered volumes define educational and cultural centre shaped around the pond in China China Architecture News - Nov 12, 2024 - 15:47 html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd"A new educational and cultural centre, defined by staggered volumes, was undertaken as a nonprofit endeavor by students at the University of Hong Kong, guided by professionals through the platform of Project Mingde.Named Duling Educational and Cultural Centre, the 500-square-metre building is located in the quaint Hakka village of Duling, nestled in the verdant countryside of Guangxi, China.Time seems to slow down in Duling, where the sounds of rural life fill the air. This village, which is home to about 3,000 Hakka people, is a living example of the values of education and hard work that are woven throughout daily life.Situated in an area that receives a lot of rainfall but lacks fresh water, the village was faced with a conundrum. Due to the lack of a water infrastructure, the villagers, who frequently experience rain showers, were forced to rely on a limited supply of well water.The community's health and well-being, especially that of the younger generation, were at risk due to hygiene issues that arose from this deficiency.Culturally-respectful sustainable designThe project aims to meet community needs while honoring the Hakka culture's core values. The design concept, which was based on sustainability and respect for tradition, aimed to turn a struggling village into a setting that would provide a safe place for kids to play and learn as well as a gathering area for the community.The project was completed in two stages. The existing school building was first renovated, strengthening its structural integrity and adding a new roof structure to protect it from additional weather-induced deterioration.In order to address the urgent hygiene problems that plagued the school community, a sustainable restroom facility was also implemented.The village's cultural center and kindergarten were built during the second phase. In order to alleviate the community's freshwater shortage, this design made the most of the difficulty posed by heavy rainfall.With a cascading form that culminates in a series of tiered roofs, the building takes into account the topography, airflow, landscape views, and culture of the site. Rainwater from these roofs is directed into an underground recycling system and then into a collection lotus pond. After that, the building's clean water is eventually pumped up for use.An embrace of cultural incluenceThe lotus pond, which doubles as a rainwater reservoir and an educational symbol, is at the heart of the building's design, which was inspired by the Hakka culture's significance of the water pond.This pond seamlessly incorporates sustainability into the architectural narrative while evoking memories of intrinsic cultural heritage.Throughout the design process, the space's openness and adaptability were crucial factors. In order to maintain a flexible arrangement while optimizing airflow and thermal control, the interior classroom spaces were designed to blend in with the outdoor areas.Without being limited by a set arrangement, users can modify these highly configurable spaces to suit their needs.This strategy places the users' demands first, enabling an interactive experience in the area.Fostering bonds and removing cultural barriersIt is crucial to consider the actual purpose of the project that has been started when concluding this phase of the journey.The philosophical underpinnings of the physical structures are what give them intrinsic value, even beyond their usefulness. These values, which are rooted in empathy, humanity, and cultural awareness, are what motivate these initiatives.Through this project, the significant influence of the built environment on creating strong community ties and overcoming geographical and cultural barriers has been recognized.These moral considerations have made it possible to design environments that reflect respect and understanding between people, demonstrating the tenacity of the human spirit.Project factsProject name: Duling Educational and Cultural CentreCompletion Year: 2024Gross Built Area (m2/ ft2):500m2Lead Architect: Elisabeth LeeAll images Jin Weiqi (Macau University of Science and Technology).All drawings Lokz Ng.> via Project Mingde
