Measuring the actual effects of using AI systems is no easy task.
A look at the many systems of measurement that have been lost and changed throughout history.
Researchers have made some of the most accurate clocks imaginable in recent years, but the trick is harnessing those clocks to electronics. Using lasers to tune microwaves bridges the gap.
They may be stunning, but nacreous clouds are also contributing to the breakdown of the Earth’s ozone layer.
Rutherford backscattering spectrometry has been a success in fields ranging from astronomy to art. Now it has even been proven accurate to the satisfaction of the metrologists
An unwritten law has emerged in both the sciences and social sciences – that it is better to measure than not to measure. Perhaps our affinity to measurement is attributable to Galileo who is purported…
