Backlash grows against decision to grant patent to AI system

At first glance, a recently granted South African patent relating to a “food container based on fractal geometry” seems fairly mundane. The innovation in question involves interlocking food containers that are easy for robots to grasp and stack. On closer inspection, the patent is anything but mundane. That’s because the inventor is not a human being – it is an artificial intelligence (AI) system called DABUS. DABUS (which stands for... Read more â€ș

Is space infinite? Here are 5 expert opinions

We’ve known for some time now our universe is expanding, and in recent years discovered this was happening considerably faster than we’d expected. Yet despite momentous innovations in telescope and satellite technology, it’s thought much of what’s out there in the cosmos lies beyond our line of sight — beyond the “observable universe”, as it’s called. It also means we don’t know with any certainty what shape the universe as... Read more â€ș

Are hydrogen fuel cells the future of green transport? Sorta

Around the world, governments are implementing policies to promote electric vehicles to reduce oil consumption, climate-related emissions and improve local air quality. Most of the attention is on plug-in electric vehicles.

OnePlus teases a dual-screen folding phone, but don’t get your hopes up

Just a day before Samsung’s folding phone event, OnePlus appears to be teasing a dual-screen device of its own. Or maybe it’s just some marketing gimmick — in which case I will hate myself for writing this article.

Twitter’s image-cropping algorithm marginalizes elderly, disabled, and Arabic

A Twitter algorithm that favored light-skinned faces has now been shown to perpetuate a range of further biases. The algorithm estimated whom a person would want to see first in a picture so the image could be cropped to a suitable size on Twitter. But it was ditched after users found it chose white faces over Black ones. Trying a horrible experiment
 Which will the Twitter algorithm pick: Mitch McConnell... Read more â€ș

Gear up: Harley-Davidson’s ebikes are rolling across Europe

I admire Harley-Davidson‘s motorcycles as much as the next person, but the truth is I’m totally incapable of riding one. So when the iconic brand and its affiliated company, Serial 1 Cycle, released their ebikes back in November 2020, I got very excited that I’d be able to try at least one Harley-Davidson vehicle. Yet again, I don’t live in the US nor in Germany, so there was no way... Read more â€ș

Anti-Semitic merchandise persists on Pinterest, despite restrictions

Entering the anti-Semitic term “6mwe” into Pinterest’s search box won’t yield any results but will offer an admonishment: “Pinterest isn’t a place for hateful images, content or activities. Learn more about our policies.” But searching through Pinterest’s site from Google for the term “6mwe hoodie” easily produces dozens of pins for content that clearly violates Pinterest’s restrictions on “hate-based conspiracy theories and misinformation, like Holocaust denial,” content the platform says...

Google’s new hardware campus shows it’s trying to be more like Apple

I’ve been a Pixel fan since the original, but I can’t help but feel the phones have often been a bit of an afterthought for Google. The company has financial resources that few in the world can compare to, after all, yet its hardware has often paled in comparison to its Android siblings — let alone Apple. While Apple is often pushing the boundaries of hardware as well as software,... Read more â€ș
