Top executives were evaluated on the number of “I” statements they made in speeches.

Regarding intelligence, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg takes the cake compared to Tesla CEO and X owner Elon Musk. While Zuckerberg came in 9th out of the 50 CEOs who were evaluated, Musk found himself in the 16th position in the order of ranks.

The most intelligent CEO in America is Demis Hassabis of DeepMind, a subsidiary of Google. “Hassabis, known for his dual expertise as an AI researcher and neuroscientist, has enriched his public discourses with a unique blend of knowledge,” said Preply, the online tutoring firm that came up with the list.

This novel millimeter wave radar sensor chip is tiny, energy-efficient, and inexpensive, yet is as accurate as the world’s best sensors.

There are a lot of things to detest about poop. It’s poop, for one. It smells. It carries disease. It never stops being produced. But that aside, there’s a lot to like about poop.

It’s one of the world’s most plentiful sources of nutrients for fertilizers. Processed properly, poop can also be converted into electricity. It even be used as new artistic medium, though somebody’s already scooped up the prize for poop painting. As the world’s population grows, both the positive and the negative effects of poop on public health and the environment will only grow, so a burgeoning group of brave scientists are trying to figure out how to make the best of a crappy situation.

Even if you get regular mammograms, knowing possible cancer symptoms is important. Thickening of the breast and nipple changes can also be signs.

A study by Northwestern University predicted colonoscopies assisted by artificial intelligence could reduce future cancer diagnoses by up to 39%. NBC medical fellow Dr. Akshay Syal added through deep learning this kind of technology could detect cancer “better than the human eye” by about 13%.

Wollberg and Berry, Prophetic’s CEO and chief technology officer, respectively, plan to showcase a semi-working prototype either later this month or in early November. But the full test of the prototype, they say, will have to wait until the third or fourth quarter of 2024, after the conclusion of a yearlong study on brain imaging conducted in partnership with the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour, part of Radboud University in the Netherlands.

The co-founders have the type of lofty dreams typical of a modern-era tech startup, with Wollberg comparing the company to OpenAI. Its mission is to work “collectively towards understanding the nature of consciousness” and its LinkedIn page reads, “Prometheus stole fire from the gods, we will steal dreams from the prophets.”

But a year out from a fully working prototype, with plans to ship devices starting in spring 2025, Prophetic is still a ways away from delivering on its promises.

Would you want to live forever? On this episode, Neil deGrasse Tyson and author, inventor, and futurist Ray Kurzweil discuss immortality, longevity escape velocity, the singularity, and the future of technology. What will life be like in 10 years?

Could we upload our brain to the cloud? We explore the merger of humans with machines and how we are already doing it. Could nanobots someday flow through our bloodstreams? Learn about the exponential growth of computation and what future computing power will look like.

After decades of searching, scientists have found stars accompanying the gas streaming from two smaller galaxies that orbit our Milky Way.

Our galaxy is so big that astronomers are still exploring its stellar backwaters. Now, new observations have enabled them to map a previously uncharted structure in the Milky Way.

Scientists have found 13 stars that they believe are associated with the Magellanic Stream — a giant ribbon of gas stretching over three-quarters of the way across the sky. The researchers presented their findings on the arXiv astronomy preprint server in June.
