🌕 A small South Australian town is helping prepare humans for the Moon.

Just 40 minutes north of Adelaide, the red dirt at Adelaide University's Roseworthy campus is standing in for the lunar surface.

Home to the Exterres facility, researchers are using a 4,000 sqm outdoor testing ground alongside the purpose-built CRATER facility to recreate key aspects of the Moon's environment, helping advance the technologies and teamwork needed for future lunar missions.

As part of the ADAMA (Astronautical Demonstration of an Analogue Mission in Australia) mission, researchers from the Andy Thomas Centre for Space Resources are exploring how astronauts and AI can work together under pressure, with each monitoring the other for errors and providing mutual support.

It's a glimpse into the future of human-machine collaboration, where cutting-edge research is being translated into real-world solutions for industry and space exploration alike.

🤖 What experts are predicting for AI's next wave

What will artificial intelligence look like in 2028? According to experts from the Australian Institute for Machine Learning (AIML), Salesforce, Stone & Chalk and LoopSoup, the answer goes far beyond chatbots and content generation.

From autonomous AI agents that rapidly adapt and evolve within their environments and handle sensitive workflows securely, to 'solopreneurs' running multimillion-dollar companies with no employees, supported entirely by fleets of AI agents, the next few years could fundamentally change how we work, build and innovate.

Discover what some of South Australia's leading AI thinkers predict is coming next in the latest feature from Boundless_05.
