Welcome to the AI era, where job postings are getting more niche — and more interdisciplinary. Anthropic recently posted a remote-friendly “Staff Software Engineer” role for its GTM AI Engineering, or “Claudification” team. The pay range is from $320,000 to $405,000, which the post said includes both the sales commission target and annual base salary
Jeff Dean, who resigned as chief scientist from Google last month, is raising again for his new AI startup, Discovery Loop, this time seeking a valuation of around $50 billion, according to people familiar with the matter. It was only a few weeks ago that Discovery Loop was raising $1 billion dollars at around a
Most spacecraft use solar panels to power their equipment — but missions to places such as the shadowed craters of the Moon or the deep Solar System can’t rely on energy from the Sun. Could nuclear fuel, with its high energy density, be a promising alternative? In this film, Nature explores the work of a
When I began my research career nearly a decade ago, there were no female academics in the mining-engineering department at Central South University in Changsha, China. Only this year did the department appoint me as its first female professor. I welcome that change, but it shows that the expectations around who can pursue mining careers
Imagine a nuclear reactor that is small enough to be transported on an aeroplane or inside a shipping container, and loaded with ten years’ worth of fuel. This kind of microreactor, say its proponents, could be shipped straight from factories to remote areas where electricity is expensive, such as rural Alaska and remote mining sites,
Fully autonomous space mission operations require the ability to detect faults and compensate for them without human intervention. To address this challenge and provide model-based support for system design and operations, it is important to connect fault management (FM) and model-based systems engineering (MBSE). This approach was successfully demonstrated with the model-based generation of a
