They tested the system on a man in his late 30s, who suffered a brainstem... Read more â€ș

The French Dispatch fashion meme is the purest thing on the internet

Normally, my day job involves a healthy dose of dread. There are time pressures, a story’s wider impact, and if I’m actually, well, right. But this piece has none of that — because it’s about a dumb meme of people involved with The French Dispatch. Let’s take a step back. The French Dispatch is the latest film from first year film students’ favorite director Wes Anderson. Oringally scheduled for release... Read more â€ș

City-sized asteroids ‘regularly’ smashed Earth in its early years

The early solar system was a violent place, and ancient Earth was pummeled by a bevy of asteroids for millions of years. Now, a new study shows this period of heavy bombardment was 10 times greater than previously believed. An asteroid impact 66 million years ago wiped out much of life on Earth, ending the Age of Dinosaurs. Between 3.5 and 2.5 billion years ago, impacts the size of this... Read more â€ș

India to stop filing cases under an abolished IT law against free speech

In 2015, India’s Supreme Court struck down a controversial IT law that stifled freedom of speech. It had said at that time that section 66A of the IT Act was “vague in its entirety,” as it punished anyone storing information that could be false or “grossly offensive or has a menacing character.”  However, a petition filed by People’s Union for Civil Liberties, a non-profit, revealed that six years after the...

Politicians and scientists manipulate us with surveys – AI could stop them

When opposing Libyan forces signed a cease-fire last year, it wasn’t the savvy of politicians or the diplomacy of ambassadors who brokered the peace. It was the United Nations and a relatively unknown AI startup. That startup is called Remesh, and it builds tools that allow organizations to conduct surveys in real-time with more than 1,000 people simultaneously. Basically, the system lets you surface insights from a live audience. For... Read more â€ș

Android 12 Beta 3 uses AI to fix janky rotation once and for all

Android has been around for over a decade, yet for some reason, a feature as seemingly simple as auto-rotation is still kind of slow and janky. It’s especially annoying when lying down or using the phone from unusual angles. I’ve gotten used to it, but whenever I get to try an iPhone or iPad, I get a little jealous of the comparatively smooth rotation. It seems that Android 12 is... Read more â€ș
