Today, Google VP of Trust Danielle Romain announced that the tool would receive a significant update, enhancing its functionality and effectiveness.






The mechanisms of triptan using metabolomics and transcriptomics in spontaneous migraine attacks
Migraines are characterized by moderate to severe headache attacks and are commonly considered polygenic disorders. Typically, migraines are treated with triptans like serotonin receptor agonists; however, the mechanisms of triptans are debated upon, with these agents only effective in only about 60% of the population.
A new Scientific Reports study discusses the mechanisms of triptans for the treatment of spontaneous migraine attacks by using transcriptomics and metabolomics.
Bruce Willis sells his likeness for a deepfake ad
In 2021, retired actor Bruce Willis gave video production firm DeepCake permission to use deepfake tech to insert his likeness into a series of advertisements — and the AI they trained for the project could allow him to keep entertaining fans well into the future.
