Inside the AI-Only Social Network With 1.6 Million ‘Users’: What You Need to Know
Social media is usually defined by human connection, but a strange new website has decided to ban people entirely. Imagine scrolling through a busy feed that looks exactly like a standard community forum, filled with arguments and jokes, only to realize that not a single human being wrote any of it. This digital experiment has…
Astronomer Warns That Rapid Technological Progress Could Shorten The Lifespan Of Civilizations
For most people, the idea of life beyond Earth sparks a mix of curiosity and comfort. If the universe is as vast as scientists say, it feels reassuring to imagine we are not alone. Yet the longer researchers have looked outward, the more noticeable the quiet has become. Telescopes have grown more powerful and our…
Find Out Which Indigenous Lands You Currently Inhabit on This Map
Have you ever considered whose history lies buried beneath the foundations of your home or office? While standard maps define our world through political borders and property lines, they often obscure the rich, enduring presence of the Indigenous peoples who have stewarded these lands for millennia. A powerful digital initiative is now peeling back these…
Scientists Just Found a New Way for Gears to Work Without Touching and It Could Change How Machines Are Built
Many of the mechanisms that support modern life operate out of sight and out of mind. We trust them because they have worked for generations, and that familiarity creates a quiet confidence that their design is settled. Over time, usefulness turns into assumption, and assumption turns into habit, leaving little room to wonder whether these…
An AI Generated Family Image Sparked a Larger Conversation About Assumptions and Identity
A single AI-generated image recently sparked a wave of online conversation after a couple asked an image generator to portray them as a family. The system produced a result that did not reflect their relationship, instead inserting a male figure who was not part of their lives. The image spread quickly, not because of its…
Artificial Intelligence Is Designing Viruses and Raising New Questions About Biosecurity
For decades, the most powerful tools in biology were physical ones, such as microscopes, petri dishes, and high security laboratories. Now, some of the earliest decisions in biological research are being made on computer screens. Scientists are using artificial intelligence to explore genetic possibilities before a single molecule is built, and that shift is quietly…
Someone Asked ChatGPT How It Would Spend 24 Hours as a Human, and the Response Is Shocking
We generally view artificial intelligence as a cold, efficient tool designed to strip away the messiness of our daily tasks. However, a recent exchange on social media challenged this perception when a user asked a chatbot how it would spend a single day as a human. The machine did not fantasize about unlimited knowledge or…
New Microsoft Data Shows the Jobs Least Likely to Be Replaced by AI
Most of us have quietly wondered if a computer could eventually do our job. We grew up assuming that physical labor was at risk while office careers were the safe bet for the future. A surprising new analysis from Microsoft flips that idea upside down. By tracking real-world usage, the data reveals a shift that…
New Stanford AI Model Predicts 130+ Diseases From a Single Night of Sleep
Most of us view a good night’s sleep simply as the fuel for a productive morning, focusing primarily on energy and mood. Yet, emerging research suggests that our unconscious hours hold a far more profound secret: a detailed roadmap of our future physical health. Stanford University scientists have developed a way to decode the complex…
