Engineering researchers at the University of Florida are playing a key role in advancing safety and precision in robot-assisted surgery, or RAS.

As questions surrounding the impact of AI continue to capture the public’s attention, UF’s 2020-founded AI Across the Curriculum initiative – with its lauded AI Fundamentals and Applications Certificate – is already paying off for graduates.

Daniel Ferris, Ph.D., a professor of biomedical engineering in the Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering, has shown that our brains react differently when training with robots than when playing against human opponents.

Audio deepfakes are becoming ubiquitous – blurring the line between fact and fiction – but UF researchers are working to develop methods to help the public navigate this new technological terrain.

A study by UF researchers highlights the need for more evaluation for trustworthiness and accuracy before OpenAI’s ChatGPT responses can be used as reference resources. Kiley Graim, Ph.D., an assistant professor in CISE, was a coauthor.

When people hear the words “national security,” their minds might quickly go to three-initialed agencies, clandestine operations, and men in dark suits wearing earpieces. But Damon Woodard, Ph.D., director of the Florida Institute for National Security (FINS) at the University of Florida, envisions something different: jobs and research.

Renowned UF biomed expert Parisa Rashidi urges Congress to fast-track broader AI

A groundbreaking project to build an interdisciplinary team and infrastructure to enable AI-Powered Athletics at UF is part of a $2.5 million project funded through President Ben Sasse’s Strategic Research Initiatives.

The University of Florida’s supercomputer, known as HiPerGator, is being put through the paces on more than 800 research projects across all 16 of UF’s colleges, accelerating impactful work that might have previously been unfeasible or even impossible. Built with $50 million in support from UF alumnus Chris Malachowsky and tech company NVIDIA, which he co-founded, the machine is one of the fastest AI supercomputers in academia.

A new artificial intelligence computer program created by researchers at UF and NVIDIA can generate doctors’ notes so well that two physicians couldn’t tell the difference, according to an early study from both groups. UF alumnus and NVIDIA co-founder Chris Malachowsky is the namesake of UF’s new Malachowsky Hall for Data Science & Information Technology. A public-private partnership between UF and NVIDIA helped to fund this $150 million structure. In 2021, UF upgraded its HiPerGator supercomputer to elite status with a multimillion-dollar infrastructure package from NVIDIA, the first at a university.
