A new study reveals that gut bacteria may play a key role in triggering ALS and frontotemporal dementia. Harmful sugars produced by these microbes can spark immune responses that damage the brain. This breakthrough explains why some genetically at-risk people develop the diseases while others don’t. Even more promising, reducing these sugars improved brain health in experiments, hinting at new treatment possibilities.

OpenAI is banking on subscribers to a cheaper, ad-supported ChatGPT subscription will drive revenue from advertising over the next several years, The Information reported late Tuesday. Earlier this year, OpenAI forecast that consumer subscribers to ChatGPT Go, which costs $8 a month in the U.S. ... Read more ›

Longtime Slashdot reader schwit1 writes: California's long-delayed high-speed rail project is now facing renewed scrutiny after state leaders revealed a dramatically higher price tag, now estimated at roughly $231 billion, nearly seven times the original $33 billion projection approved by voters in 2008. The revised figures have reignited talks in Sacramento over whether the project can realistically be completed, how long it will take, and whether the state can continue... Read more ›

Использую AI каждый день и устал от одной штуки — результат непредсказуемый. Час итераций, простыня на полстраницы с ролями, со «step by step», с «think carefully», и в итоге сидишь и переписываешь сам. Длина не лечит, магические слова не лечат. Промпт — не молитва. Проблема в том, что ты не подумал, что вообще хочешь получить.После часа итераций сидишь и думаешь: я что вообще делегировал — задачу или надежду на то,... Read more ›

Мы искали уязвимости в RAG-платформе с десятками тысяч пользователей — а нашли доступ ко всей инфраструктуре и API-ключам с бюджетом в сотни тысяч долларов. Две недели мы строили сложные цепочки: SSRF через LangChain, инъекции в промпты, HTTP smuggling, CVE в десериализации. Ни одна не дала результата. А потом мы сделали один curl к открытому порту — и получили все ключи за 5 минут.Эта статья — не гайд по взлому. Это... Read more ›

RAG часто воспринимают как аккуратный способ «заземлить» LLM на документах и снизить риск галлюцинаций. Но у этой архитектуры есть менее очевидная проблема: контекст из базы знаний обычно считается доверенным, хотя именно через него в модель могут попасть вредоносные инструкции. В статье разбираем, как несколько отравленных документов могут повлиять на ответы системы, почему эмбеддинги нельзя считать безопасной абстракцией и какие уровни защиты нужны, если RAG используется не в демо, а в...

Right on time and as promised, today Motorola has announced the new, 2026 versions of the Razr, Razr+, and Razr Ultra for the North American market. These will be known internationally as the Razr 70, Razr 70 Plus, and Razr 70 Ultra, respectively. Let's take them one by one. Motorola Razr 2026 / Razr 70 This device comes with a 6.9-inch main folding LTPO AMOLED screen with 1080x2640 resolution, a... Read more ›

Scientists at UC Irvine have found a way to potentially reverse age-related vision loss by targeting the ELOVL2 “aging gene” and restoring vital fatty acids in the retina. Their experiments in mice show that supplementing with specific polyunsaturated fatty acids—not just DHA—can restore visual function and even reverse cellular aging signs. Read more ›

A new virus-fighting plastic film could transform everyday surfaces into invisible defenders against disease. Instead of relying on chemicals, this flexible material is covered in microscopic pillars that physically stretch viruses until they burst, rendering them harmless. In lab tests, it destroyed or disabled about 94% of virus particles within an hour, showing impressive effectiveness. Read more ›

A remarkably preserved, mummified reptile from 289 million years ago is rewriting what we know about how animals first breathed on land. This tiny creature, Captorhinus aguti, reveals the earliest known version of the rib-powered breathing system used by modern reptiles, birds, and mammals — a crucial innovation that helped vertebrates thrive outside water.

A bizarre crocodile relative from the age of dinosaurs is rewriting what scientists thought they knew about ancient reptiles. This poodle-sized creature, called Sonselasuchus cedrus, appears to have started life walking on all fours before shifting to a two-legged stance as it matured—an unusual transformation rarely seen in the fossil record.

Scientists have mapped how Earth’s deepest mantle is being deformed—and the results point to long-lost tectonic plates buried thousands of kilometers underground. Using a massive global dataset of seismic waves, they found that most deformation happens in regions where these ancient slabs are thought to reside. The findings confirm long-standing theories but, for the first time, show the pattern on a global scale. It’s a major step toward understanding how... Read more ›

A breakthrough in brain-inspired computing could make today’s energy-hungry AI systems far more efficient. Researchers have engineered a new nanoelectronic device using a modified form of hafnium oxide that mimics how neurons process and store information at the same time. Unlike conventional chips that waste energy moving data back and forth, this device operates with ultra-low power—potentially slashing energy use by up to 70%. Read more ›

A new minimally invasive procedure may help people keep weight off after stopping popular drugs like Ozempic and semaglutide—something most patients struggle with. In a clinical trial, those who underwent a technique called duodenal mucosal resurfacing regained far less weight compared to others after discontinuing the medication. The procedure works by renewing the lining of the upper small intestine, potentially “resetting” metabolism and preserving the benefits of weight loss. Read more ›

Scientists have identified two specific types of brain cells that behave differently in people with depression, offering a clearer picture of what is happening inside the brain. By analyzing donated brain tissue with advanced genetic tools, the researchers found changes in neurons linked to mood and stress, as well as in immune-related microglia cells. These differences point to disruptions in key brain systems and reinforce that depression is rooted in... Read more ›

A rare group of adults over 80, known as SuperAgers, are rewriting what we thought was possible for the aging brain. With memory abilities comparable to people decades younger, their brains either resist or withstand the damage typically linked to Alzheimer’s disease. Decades of research reveal that their social lifestyles and unique brain biology may hold the key to preserving cognitive function. Scientists believe these insights could pave the way... Read more ›

Physicists have taken a major step toward using AI not just to analyze data, but to uncover entirely new laws of nature. By combining a specially designed neural network with precise 3D tracking of particles in a dusty plasma—a strange “fourth state of matter” found from space to wildfires—the team revealed hidden patterns in how particles interact. Their model captured complex, one-way (non-reciprocal) forces with over 99% accuracy and even... Read more ›
