Impossible Quantum Drive That Defies Known Laws of Physics Scheduled for “Do or Die” October Space Flight

Posted by in categories: quantum physics, space travel

A controversial new type of electric propulsion system that physicists say defies Newton’s Laws of Motion, known as the Quantum Drive, has secured a spot on a SpaceX rocket and will launch into low Earth orbit (LEO) this October.

Designed by IVO Ltd., an electronics prototyping company, the promising yet controversial Quantum Drive could change the future of space travel and, if proven to work, would potentially rewrite or expand many of the accepted principles of inertia and motion that have existed for centuries.

Newtonian Physics Says creating inertia Without Propellant is Impossible.

AI Taking Jobs Could Benefit Economy, Says Marc Andreessen: ‘It’s A Process Of Change And People Get Freaked Out’

Posted by in categories: economics, employment, robotics/AI

Entrepreneur and venture capitalist Marc Andreessen is among the many people speaking out about the opportunities and risks of artificial intelligence and the growth of ChatGPT. The comments from Andreessen come as valuations have risen for artificial intelligence stocks.

What Happened: Fresh off his report called “Why AI will save the world,” Andreessen shared more details on the opportunities for artificial intelligence during a recent podcast appearance.

Andreessen argued that AI could save the world, a bold claim that includes looking at the religion of sorts of the AI movement.

AI Robots Admit They’d Run Earth Better Than ‘Clouded’ Humans

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

Nicholas Play they wrote an article for you.


A panel of AI-enabled humanoid robots told a United Nations summit on Friday that they could eventually run the world better than humans.

But the social robots said they felt humans should proceed with caution when embracing the rapidly-developing potential of artificial intelligence.

Sarah Silverman Sues OpenAI for Copyright Infringement

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

The debate surrounding the use of AI chatbots and copyright is really starting to heat up.

Case in point, comedian and author Sarah Silverman has filed a lawsuit, alongside two other authors, against OpenAI and Meta for copyright infringement, The Guardian reports.

They’re claiming that OpenAI’s very popular ChatGPT and Meta’s own AI model LLaMA were trained on their books as dataset fodder, without their consent.

Scientists can now grow wood in a lab without cutting a single tree

Posted by in category: futurism

Well, not yet because there is a new solution that promises an end to our need of cutting trees. A team of researchers at MIT claims that lab-grown timber can replace deforestation driving products made from real wood. They have developed a technique using which timber can be produced in any shape and size, so for example, if you need a new wooden chair, using the researcher’s technique, you can create it in a lab without cutting a single tree.

How Deep Sleep Brain Waves Can Impact Blood Sugar Levels

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, neuroscience

Summary: Deep-sleep brain waves could be a significant factor in regulating blood sugar. The research shows that a combination of sleep spindles and slow waves can predict an increase in insulin sensitivity, subsequently lowering glucose levels.

This discovery highlights sleep as a potential lifestyle adjustment to improve blood sugar control and manage diabetes. Furthermore, these deep-sleep brain waves could also be used to predict an individual’s next-day glucose levels, proving more accurate than traditional sleep metrics.

Expression Patterns and Functions of Cardiac Pigment Epithelium-Derived Factor During Cardiac Development

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, chemistry

Objective: This study describes the expression profiles and roles of cardiac pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) during cardiac development.

Methods: Gene datasets from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database were used to analyze the correlation between cardiac PEDF expression and heart disease. Western blotting.

Immunohistochemistry, histological staining and echocardiography were used to assess the expression patterns and functions of PEDF during cardiac development.
