Developing validity arguments for artificial intelligence-based assessment: Balancing affordances and threats

Background Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used to generate, score and interpret educational assessment, yet these applications are being adopted in a largely unregulated environment. This creates a paradox: Whereas AI systems used in clinical care are subject to formal scrutiny for safety, performance and monitoring, AI systems used to inform consequential decisions about learner progression and future clinical practice are not. Existing validity frameworks remain useful but may not fully account f…

Physiology-guided mechanical ventilation: Monitoring, proportional assist, and bounded automation

Mechanical ventilation has evolved into a complex intervention that influences lung injuries, respiratory muscle function, and hemodynamic stability. Although lung-protective strategies improve outcomes in acute respiratory distress syndrome, bedside management remains limited by incomplete monitoring of key physiologic variables, including lung stress, inspiratory effort and regional ventilation. This constrains decision such as positive end-expiratory pressure titration and ventilatory assist targeting. Emergi…

Top Tech News Today, September 4, 2026: Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Nvidia, OpenAI, Tesla & More

It’s Friday, September 4, 2026, and the AI boom stopped looking theoretical overnight. OpenAI released GPT-6 Astra and declared the arrival of the AGI era. Tesla put wheel-free Cybercabs on Austin streets and almost immediately drew a federal safety probe. Meanwhile, Crusoe vaulted to a $30 billion valuation, Congress moved to inventory rogue AI agents,

OpenAI claims to have solved maths problem that stumped humans for decades

OpenAI claims to have solved a major mathematics problem that has stumped humans for nearly a century after spending millions of dollars on the artificial intelligence-led endeavour. The company behind ChatGPT said it had cracked the Navier-Stokes problem, one of seven Millennium Prize Problems published by the Clay Mathematics Institute to highlight some of the biggest unsolved puzzles in the field. However, the announcement swiftly became mired in controversy after mathematician Tristan Buckmaster, a professor…

AI will help find cure for cancer ‘within our lifetimes’, says Arm Holdings chief

The boss of one of the UK’s biggest chip companies has claimed AI will be able to find a cure for cancer “in our lifetime”. Rene Haas, chief executive of the chip designer Arm Holdings, said that, while modelling how a DNA marker is affected by cancer was currently “too complex” a problem for either humans or technology, computers were “going to solve it” in the future. Haas told the BBC: “AI is going to … find a cure for cancer that today you and I, other humans [could] not in our lifetimes. I believe in our li…

Select large language models outperform hip preservation experts on consensus-based hip preservation questionnaire

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly utilized in medical education and clinical contexts, yet few studies compare the performance of large language models (LLMs) to subspecialized experts in providing guideline-based medical information on hip preservation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of three LLMs compared to a panel of international hip preservation experts in answering guideline-based questions related to femoroacetabular impingement syndrome, hip dysplasia and microinsta…

From Correlation to Clinical Translation: The Biological-Grounding×Translational-Readiness Framework for Artificial Intelligence in Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer

Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains the leading cause of cancer death worldwide, and clinicians now face a rapidly expanding array of artificial intelligence (AI) tools promising earlier detection, better treatment selection, and more precise radiotherapy, yet few have altered what happens at the bedside. The problem is not poor benchmark performance; it is that strong benchmark performance has repeatedly failed to translate into demonstrable patient benefit, because most published NSCLC models are retros…

NDIB-Sim: A Multimodal Bidirectional PINN Model for Simulating Brain Dynamics

Constructing dynamic virtual brain models is essential for understanding brain functions and pathological mechanisms, crucial in computational neuroscience. Current modeling methods can be grouped into two paradigms: deep learning models for accurate simulation, and neural dynamics models emphasizing physiological interpretability. However, these methods entail a fundamental tradeoff between accuracy and interpretability. To address this challenge, we introduce the neurodynamics-informed brain simulator (NDIB-Si…

SnSe/SnO2 Heterojunction-Based Single-Sensor Virtual Electronic Nose with Low Reaction Barrier for Trace Identification of Volatile Sulfur Compounds toward Illicit Methamphetamine Trafficking Traceability

Illicit methamphetamine (MA, ice) trafficking poses a severe global threat to public security, while non-contact on-site detection of MA remains a grand challenge due to its ultra-low saturated vapor pressure at room temperature (25 °C). Volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs), including hydrogen sulfide (H2S), methanethiol (CH3SH), and dimethyl sulfide (C2H6S, DMS), are stable characteristic markers released throughout the entire MA production, purification, storage, and transportation chain. Herein, we develop a sing…

Not quite eye to A.I.: student and teacher perspectives on the use of generative artificial intelligence in the writing process

Abstract Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) can be used to author academic texts at a similar level to what humans are capable of, causing concern about its misuse in education. Addressing the role of GenAI in teaching and learning has become an urgent task. This study reports the results of a survey comparing educators’ (n = 68) and university students’ (n = 158) perceptions on the appropriate use of GenAI in the writing process. The survey included representations of user prompts and output from ChatGP…
