AI Teams Up to Solve Problems and NASA Uses Lasers for Space Communication

Listen Later

Welcome to another episode of The Science Observer! This time, we're diving into two groundbreaking innovations: Co-LLM, an AI model developed by MIT researchers, and NASA's Deep Space Optical Communications. These cutting-edge technologies are transforming how we approach AI and revolutionizing space communication, paving the way for an exciting future.

This week's stories:


  • Co-LLM is a new kind of AI model that combines many expert AIs into one powerful system. This means it can solve really hard problems better, like diagnosing medical issues or writing creatively. But there are challenges too, like needing a lot of computer power and keeping data private.


    • NASA's Deep Space Optical Communications (DSOC) is changing space communication by using lasers to send data up to 100 times faster than radio waves. To give you an idea, it could take hours or even days to send high-quality images from Mars using radio signals, but DSOC can do it in just a few minutes. This means we could see live video from Mars and have better control over space missions, making our sci-fi dreams come true.
