Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence demonstrated by machines, as opposed to the natural intelligence displayed by humans or animals. Leading AI textbooks define the field as the study of “intelligent agents”: any system that perceives its environment and takes actions that maximize its chance of achieving its goals.[a] Some popular accounts use the term “artificial intelligence” to describe machines that mimic “cognitive” functions that humans associate with the human mind, such as “learning” and “problem-solving”, however, this definition is rejected by major AI researchers.

Embrace Artificial Intelligence To Keep Your Job Relevant

ANN ARBOR - Gary Erickson, managing partner at Executive Search Partners, said people today should not be worried about whether artificial intelligence will take their jobs. Instead people need to embrace AI to stay relevant in their jobs. Erickson's company places executive level job candidates in Information Technology manager and "C" level positions. As a

NVIDIA Targets Autonomous Vehicle Bottlenecks As Michigan Pushes Toward Reasoning-Based AI

LAS VEGAS — Autonomous vehicles have been “five years away” for more than a decade. Despite billions invested by automakers, suppliers, and technology companies, the industry continues to struggle with the same fundamental problems: brittle perception systems, difficulty handling rare edge cases, and limited explainability when automated systems make mistakes. At CES 2026, NVIDIA introduced

What It Takes to Bring Semiconductor Manufacturing To Michigan

ANN ARBOR—The United States invented the semiconductor industry, built the first transistors, and powered the digital age—then gradually outsourced large-scale chip manufacturing overseas. Today, amid geopolitical risk, supply-chain shocks and surging demand from electric vehicles, AI systems and data centers, researchers say the path back does not run through copying yesterday’s chips. It runs through

Science Fiction Warned AI Could End Humanity – Is It Possible?

NEW YORK - More than 50 years before ChatGPT could tell you what to cook for dinner, a 1968 science fiction film was shaping how we think about machines that talk to us. In 2001: A Space Odyssey, a Jupiter-bound spacecraft is controlled by HAL, a computer that thinks for itself and has its own agenda. As

AI Demand vs. Grid Capacity: Why Michigan’s Power System Is Reaching a Breaking Point

ANN ARBOR - Michigan’s electric grid was not built for artificial intelligence. It was designed to serve households, factories, and offices — not clusters of hyperscale data centers running AI models around the clock. But that mismatch is now reshaping utility planning, economic development, and infrastructure policy across the state. The AI Power Surge Traditional

Data Center Nuclear Option: Retired Navy Reactors Enter The Conversation As Michigan’s AI Data Centers Hunt For Always-On Power

ANN ARBOR - Michigan’s fast-growing data-center market is colliding with a hard physical limit: electricity that never blinks. Developers chasing hyperscale campuses—built to train and run artificial intelligence models—are demanding round-the-clock power at levels that can rival a mid-size city. Utilities and regulators, meanwhile, are trying to keep rates stable for households while meeting Michigan’s

Entry-Level Jobs Are Disappearing as Companies Let AI Replace the Learning Curve

ANN ARBOR  — Entry-level jobs — long the gateway from college to career — are rapidly disappearing as companies use artificial intelligence to automate the very tasks that once trained new workers, according to new research from the Burning Glass Institute. The nonprofit workforce research group analyzed millions of job postings and found a sharp
