A study that could help revolutionize wireless communication introduces a novel method to curve terahertz signals around an obstacle.
While cellular networks and Wi-Fi systems are more advanced than ever, they are also quickly reaching their bandwidth limits. Scientists know that in the near future they’ll need to transition to much higher communication frequencies than what current systems rely on, but before that can happen there are a number of — quite literal — obstacles standing in the way.
Researchers from Brown University and Rice University say they’ve advanced one step closer to getting around these solid obstacles, like walls, furniture and even people — and they do it by curving light.
Humanity will change. Or be replaced. Or go extinct. An exploration of the many potential posthuman offspring of humankind, from the biological to the artificial. – C. M. Kosemen YouTube: / cmkosemen. C. M. Kosemen Patreon: / cmkosemen. C. M. Kosemen Website: http://www.cmkosemen.com/
What do you imagine when I say the future of human evolution?
A superbeing with powers beyond comprehension? A mutated oddity far removed from our idea of humanity? Or perhaps nothing but decaying remains left in the wake of our extinction?
Scientists and sci-fi authors have long speculated on what our future selves will look like — and as technology advances, our species might evolve much faster than natural selection would typically allow. So, for this entry into the archive, we’ll explore posthuman scenarios from the absurd to the frighteningly plausible — and meet the many possible successors to humankind…

According to MG Motor, the EXE181 can reach a top speed of 257 mph. It accelerates 0-62mph in 1.91 seconds and features a drag coefficient (Cd) of 0.181.
Researchers at Vector Atomic have developed a revolutionary new atomic clock that boasts both exceptional precision and remarkable portability. Unlike its bulky lab-bound predecessors, this innovative clock utilizes oscillating iodine molecules and is remarkably compact, roughly the size of three shoeboxes and weighing only 26 kilograms. This makes it a perfect fit for deployment on virtually any ship.
The true marvel lies in the clock’s accuracy. Vector Atomic claims it surpasses the performance of existing shipboard clocks by a staggering 1,000 times. This translates to significantly improved positioning capabilities, potentially reducing errors to mere centimeters.
This new generative AI model represents a significant advancement in the realm of AI. The model functions as a hybrid, integrating both transformer and recurrent neural network architectures. Additionally, it has been trained on a diverse dataset of over 10 billion tokens from multiple languages and sources.
PR Newswire reported that SenseNova 5.0 underwent over 10TB of token training, covering a large amount of synthetic data.
A Slovakian aviation firm has completed the world’s first passenger flight with a flying car.
Klein Vision achieved this milestone with its AirCar, which carried French electronic musician Jean-Michel Jarre as a passenger. The test was held on an airport runway in Slovakia.
In a video put out by the firm, the winged sportscar is seen zooming down the runway on four wheels before all of a sudden becoming airborne and ascending into the sky. A few minutes in, it lands back safely with Jaree and a pilot aboard.
