Artificial intelligence is reshaping how wars are fought. From autonomous drones to AI-powered command-and-control, machines are paving the way for fewer decision-makers in the war room and boots on the ground. That transformation is already reshaping conflicts by introducing new technologies in Kyiv, Gaza and Tehran.  AI-powered interceptor drones in Ukraine. Israel’s AI-enabled target generation…

Sign up to see the future, today Can’t-miss innovations from the bleeding edge of science and tech Spotify, like pretty much every other digital platform, has been grappling with a torrent of low-quality AI-generated content flooding its streaming service. The deluge has resulted in cheap-and-fast AI-generated music infiltrating algorithmic playlists and even charting. The slop…

Scientists from prestigious universities are more than three times more likely to have their research published in top-tier scientific journals than authors from lesser known schools are. Meanwhile, authors based in China and those studying politics, economics, gender or other social issues face a significant disadvantage. These are a few takeaways from a sweeping new…

Terraforming is the process of reshaping a planet or moon so it can support humans and other Earth-like life. In theory, that means changing an alien world’s atmosphere, climate, and surface to more closely resemble Earth’s by adding oxygen, creating stable bodies of liquid water, and producing temperatures suitable for life. Mars has long been…

Sign up to see the future, today Can’t-miss innovations from the bleeding edge of science and tech As corporate AI bills spiral out of control, many companies are beginning to ask themselves a simple question: why pay a pretty penny for the US’s leading AI models when Chinese ones are far cheaper? Major companies like…

Coffee has repeatedly been associated with longer life and a lower risk of several chronic illnesses. Even so, scientists have not fully understood the biological processes that might explain those benefits. New findings from the Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences (VMBS) point to one possible answer. Researchers found that certain compounds…
