From forgotten Hollywood movies to Frank Herbert’s "Dune," science fiction illustrates some of our deepest fears about technology.
In a state of "hyperwar," accidents or unexpected AI decisions could lead to widespread devastation before humans could intervene.
Apart from the energy needed to flip the switch, no other energy is needed to transmit the information.
metaverse
The metaverse is inevitable because it is hardwired into our DNA.
benefits of asynchronous learning
There are many ways asynchronous learning benefits both individuals and organizations, from learner autonomy to cost savings.
Most electric car charging is done at night. A grid powered mostly by renewable energy might not be able to meet demand, but there is a solution.
Metaverse games
Who will lead humanity in the Metaverse? Roblox and Minecraft gamers.
Anything, good or bad, about Henry Ford can be contradicted — except his ambition and his work.

Deep learning AI has accurately created color images from night vision images.
augmented reality
For the very first time, an AR contact lens was worn on the eye of a human subject. And it has about 30 times the pixel density of an iPhone.
Israel looks to deploy its “Iron Beam” air-defense system within the year.
Outfitted with wheels and rotors, the bot can morph from a land drone into a quadcopter in seconds.
space plane
Space planes could radically lower the cost of spaceflight.

Humanoid robots are coming, and Ameca is designed to be the ideal platform to study human-robot interactions.
Robot cheetah at MIT
A new control system, demonstrated using MIT’s robotic mini cheetah, enables four-legged robots to jump across uneven terrain in real-time.
The Large Hadron Collider allowed us to complete the Standard Model. Even so, what we have is incomplete. Here’s what could come next. The Large Hadron Collider is the most powerful […]
Designed for a 90-day mission each, dust killed the overachieving Spirit and threatens to now kill Opportunity. But it didn’t have to be this way. In 2004, NASA launched two exploration […]
The same technology that Norway uses to keep its fjords ice-free could literally take the power out of hurricanes as they form. Among all the natural disasters that occur on planet […]
Want humans to go to the Moon or Mars? Then let’s stop wasting time and resources and go do it! “We had this whole big beautiful place for discovery, and all […]
