Bones and teeth are typical biological minerals in human body, and damage to these hard tissues directly affects our daily life [1], [2]. In recent years, chronic diseases such as osteoporosis and osteoarthritis have large impact on the elderly’s life [3], [4]. From 1990–2019, the number of disabled people due to low bone mineral density increased from 8.6 million to 16.6 million globally. This substantial rise highlights the growing severity of the treatment challenges in hard tissue regeneration worldwide [5], [6]. Orthopedic biomaterials account for 37.5 % of the global biomaterials market, and the market share ranks first in biomaterials [7].…
Humility, a designer’s essential value—that has a nice ring to it. What about humility, an office manager’s essential value? Or a dentist’s? Or a librarian’s? They all sound great. When humility is our guiding light, the path is always open for fulfillment, evolution, connection, and engagement. In this chapter, we’re going to talk about why. Article Continues Below That said, this is a book for designers, and to that end, I’d like to start with a story—well, a journey, really. It’s a personal one, and I’m going to make myself a bit vulnerable along the way. I call it: The…

This post was cowritten with Satabrata Paul and Karan Singh Thakur from Atlan In this post, we show you how to unify governance and metadata across Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio and Atlan through a comprehensive bidirectional integration. You’ll learn how to deploy the necessary Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure, configure secure connections, and set up automated synchronization to maintain consistent metadata across both platforms. As organizations scale their data and AI programs, teams often work across distributed tools such as governance solutions for business users and analytics or machine learning (ML) environments for technical teams. Without tight integration between these…
Today, we’re announcing two new AI model training features within Amazon SageMaker HyperPod: checkpointless training, an approach that mitigates the need for traditional checkpoint-based recovery by enabling peer-to-peer state recovery, and elastic training, enabling AI workloads to automatically scale based on resource availability. Checkpointless training – Checkpointless training eliminates disruptive checkpoint-restart cycles, maintaining forward training momentum despite failures, reducing recovery time from hours to minutes. Accelerate your AI model development, reclaim days from development timelines, and confidently scale training workflows to thousands of AI accelerators. Elastic training – Elastic training maximizes cluster utilization as training workloads automatically expand to use…
Scams didn’t slow down in 2025—and all signs point to the problem getting worse in 2026. While the final numbers aren’t in yet, reported losses are already on track to break records. Through just the first half of 2025, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) cited nearly $6.5 billion in scam-related losses, putting the year on pace to surpass 2024’s total. And it’s not just isolated incidents: 73% of Americans say they’ve experienced at least one scam or online attack. As scams become more convincing, often powered by AI and designed to blend into everyday digital life, basic “spot the red…
