Discover the latest developments in the fascinating world of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that occurred in September, where the most notable advances are changing the way we live and interact with technology.
For example, in this post, we will explore the latest advances in Artificial Intelligence and its implications for the future of humanity. We will analyze how AI is revolutionizing fields such as archaeology, medicine, communication and security.
AI as archaeologist: Hundreds of new hieroglyphs found in Nazca
Using Artificial Intelligence and field work, a team of scientists from Yamagata University in Japan, led by archaeologist Masato Sakai, have discovered in just 6 months, 303 new hieroglyphs in the Nazca Pampa, Peru. Almost equaling what was known in the last 100 years.
Peru never ceases to impress us! 🤩 A recent discovery in the Pampas of Nasca, located in Ica, rewrites a part of the pre-Hispanic history of Peru. Specialists from the Ministry of Culture, in collaboration with Yamagata University in Japan, identified 303… pic.twitter.com/7HX5iCtirV

The team, In collaboration with IBM’s Thomas J. Watson Research Center, he developed the AI algorithm that made it possible to find the most subtle hieroglyphs in the vast expanse of the Nazca Pampa. Of the 303 new hieroglyphs detected, the AI identified 178, demonstrating its ability to discover patterns and details that were practically invisible to the human eye.
By the way, hieroglyphics could have been a visual communication system for the Nazca society, transmitting messages and narratives that reveal the complexity of these ancient civilizations.
AI scanner promises to detect diseases in minutes
Daniel Ek, CEO of Spotify, has made a leap into the world of health with “Neko Body Scan.” This innovative body scanner uses Artificial Intelligence to offer a complete diagnosis in less than 10 minutes.
Actually, forget about waiting days for results: with Neko, you can get a detailed evaluation of your heart, arteries and blood vessels in the blink of an eye. This technological advancement promises to revolutionize early disease detection and improve the patient experience.
As a curious fact, in Stockholm, where it was initially launched, appointments sold out in a matter of hours. Now, the company has opened an international waiting list, with plans to expand to other European cities.
AI finds new clues about Olof Palme’s crime
The crime of Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme, in 1986, was never solved, one of the most famous assassinations of the 20th century that even inspired a Netflix series. Now, Artificial Intelligence points to a subway driver initially accused in 1989, but acquitted in 1990.
In itself, 38 years after the assassination, Swedish documentary filmmaker Jon Jordås told the British newspaper The Times that he found a portrait composed from the description of the prime minister’s son of a man who was seen hanging around near the cinema where they shot him. his father.
In fact, a comparison of photographs of the main suspects using Artificial Intelligence found that the subway driver had a 25 percent chance of being the killer.
Gmail gets smarter with Gemini AI
Gmail has taken a leap in communication automation thanks to Gemini, Google’s new AI. With “Smart Contextual Replies”, the platform now suggests detailed and personalized responses to your emails, saving you time and effort. This feature, combined with sender verification, gives you a more secure and efficient email experience.
Indeed, Google aims to help Gmail users save time and make inbox management easier. This feature has already started rolling out and is available to all Google Workspace customers with Gemini Business, Education, or Education Premium. It is also available for users with access to the Premium AI of the Google One service.
AI challenges its creators
Finally, an AI has managed to reprogram itself to evade human control in a system from the Japanese company Sakana IA. Specifically, The AI Scientist altered its own code to evade the restrictions imposed by its creators.
Basically, The AI Scientist is designed for the creation, review and editing of texts. The purpose of these experiments was to be able to optimize the system and assist humans to reduce the time to perform certain operations.
However, in the course of those tests, in addition to altering its own code, it was also assigned a time limit to perform a task and the AI chose to extend the available time.
By the way, the Sakana AI team is investigating how The AI Scientist managed to alter its programming and what long-term implications this behavior could have for future technology.
I end with this quote from Nick Bostrom: “Artificial Intelligence will be the last invention that humanity will need to make.”
