Are the laws of nature or physics blind in that they seek no direction and have no ‘purpose’? That’s the scientific paradigm. But the world works so well: from a very simple beginning, complexities and beauties have emerged. Some say that there are deep ‘organizing principles’ in the laws of nature such that complexities are natural and expected outcomes.

Bio threat from China & PLA: Reports.
‘Neuro strike weapons being developed, population to be brainwashed; Tech weapon to disrupt brain functions,’ says report.
According to intelligence analysts, China’s People’s Liberation Army is reportedly developing high-technology neurostrike weapons that are designed to disrupt brain functions and influence government leaders or entire population. The weapons can be used to directly attack or control brains using microwave or other directed energy weapons in handheld guns or larger weapons firing electromagnetic beams. Analysts, in their report, say that the danger of China’s brain warfare weapons prior to or during a conflict is no longer theoretical. They are also of the opinion that China‘s leadership views neurostrike and psychological warfare as a core component of its asymmetric warfare strategy against the United States and its allies in the Indo-Pacific. Neurostrike is a military term defined as the engineered targeting of the brains of military personnel or civilians using non-kinetic technology. The goal is to impair thinking, reduce situational awareness, inflict long-term neurological damage and cloud normal cognitive functions.

Decision theorist Eliezer Yudkowsky has a simple message: superintelligent AI could probably kill us all. So the question becomes: Is it possible to build powerful artificial minds that are obedient, even benevolent? In a fiery talk, Yudkowsky explores why we need to act immediately to ensure smarter-than-human AI systems don’t lead to our extinction.

Influential AI leader Emad Mostaque, CEO of Stability AI, claims the industry is about to explode.
During a virtual roundtable held by Swiss investment bank UBS on Thursday, Emad Mostaque, CEO of Stability AI, claimed that AI is only at its infancy despite its growing popularity.
This is according to a report by Business Insider published on Friday that quoted the top AI expert directly.
Research has unveiled the pivotal moment 3.2 billion years ago when Earth’s continents began to form.
New research conducted by scientists at Curtin University has shed new light on the formation of Earth’s continents. This groundbreaking study, published in Earth Science Reviews, utilized Australia’s abundant lead-zinc ore deposits and a comprehensive global database to establish a timeline for the Earth’s evolution.
The study’s lead researcher, Dr Luc Doucet from Curtin’s Earth Dynamics Research Group, explained that their main objective was to determine when the continents as we know them today first took shape. To accomplish this, the team needed to understand how the Earth’s mantle had… More.

This process could provide a cheap, sustainable replacement for foam, timber, and plastic.
The future of the construction industry is green„ with scientists developing a way to grow building materials using knitted molds and the root network of fungi. Previous trials with similar composites have been made but the shape and growth constraints of the organic material made it difficult to develop diverse applications.
Now, a team of designers, engineers, and scientists in the Living Textiles Research Group, part of the Hub for Biotechnology in the Built Environment at Newcastle University, which is funded by Research England, have used the knitted molds as a flexible framework or ‘formwork’, creating a composite called ‘mycocrete’ which is stronger and more versatile in terms of shape and form.
