In today’s AI news, Block announced the launch of Goose, an open-source AI agent that allows developers to customize the tool for different purposes and using different large language models. Block’s move comes just after the Chinese startup DeepSeek unveiled its R1 artificial intelligence model, a rival to leading U.S. AI providers.

In other advancements, Cerebras and the Mayo Clinic, announcing a joint project for AI tools used in patient care. The technology was announced at the JP Morgan Healthcare Conference. In this project, the stakeholders aim to use a human reference genome to combine with patient data in order to try to identify genetic differences.

S innovative R1 reasoning model into its platform to revolutionize AI-powered search. This strategic integration strengthens Perplexity’s ability to perform deep web searches, providing users with more comprehensive and accurate results while upholding strict data security standards. + And, San Francisco-based start-up Atomicwork will today announce it has clinched $25 million of Series A financing in a round led by Khosla Ventures and Z47. The funding announcement comes less than six months after the last round, takes the total amount of money raised by the company since its launch to almost $40 million.

In videos, on this episode of Top of Mind, Gartner Global Chief of Research Chris Howard is joined by Rita Sallam, Distinguished VP Analyst, to explore how organizations can create measurable value with AI in 2025. Learn how to align investments with business priorities, manage productivity challenges and balance risk with ambition.

“For the First Time Ever: China’s Tiangong Astronauts Create Oxygen & Rocket Fuel in Orbit!”
For the first time, astronauts aboard China’s Tiangong space station have achieved a groundbreaking feat: converting carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and rocket fuel using artificial photosynthesis. This revolutionary technology mimics how plants create energy and has the potential to transform space exploration forever. Imagine astronauts producing breathable air and spacecraft fuel directly in orbit—no more costly resupply missions from Earth! This efficient, sustainable innovation could enable long-term missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond, making the dream of a multi-planetary future more achievable than ever. In this video, we’ll explore how this technology works, why it’s so important, and what it means for humanity’s next big leap. Don’t miss out on this exciting update about the future of space exploration!

Robotic companions address the male loneliness epidemic.

The rise of highly realistic humanoid AI companions, like Arya, aims to alleviate male loneliness and promote social interaction, but raises female concerns about their impact on relationships, societal dynamics, and their ability to interest men.

## Technological and Social Impact 1. Arya, a flagship humanoid AI robot, is designed to combat the male loneliness epidemic by serving as a highly realistic girlfriend capable of forming genuine human-like bonds. 2. Priced at $110,000 for a basic model and $175,000 for a full-body version, Arya is marketed as cheaper than a wife in the West, offering companionship and household assistance. ## Economic and Demographic Implications t get pregnant and men wouldn## Customization and Functionality s AI is customizable to learn about users and brands, making her suitable for promoting products at conventions and becoming a rock star attraction. ” +2. The robot can be programmed to cook, clean, and provide companionship on command, fulfilling traditional household roles without incorporating smart or self-aware features to avoid potential rebellion.


Scientists have discovered two enormous structures deep within Earth’s mantle. Research from Utrecht University reveals these regions are hotter and older than the surrounding sunken tectonic plates—at least half a billion years old, possibly older.

This finding challenges the idea that Earth’s mantle is well-mixed and fast-flowing, suggesting less movement in the mantle than previously thought.

Large earthquakes make the Earth vibrate like a bell with different tones. Seismologists study these tones to understand Earth’s interior. If the tones are “out of tune” or quieter, it indicates anomalies, helping to create images of Earth’s interior, similar to X-rays for doctors.

Babies are like little detectives, constantly piecing together clues about the world around them. If you’ve ever noticed your baby staring at you while you talk, it’s because they’re picking up on more than just sounds – they’re learning how those sounds are made.

Our recent study, published in Developmental Science, shows this amazing process starts as early as four months old, shaking up the old belief that babies learn these patterns only after tuning in to their native language between 6 and 12 months of age.

It also gives us an earlier window to help children who might be at risk of speech or language delays.

As you lay your head down to sleep tonight and dream all things weird and wonderful, scientists think your brain is going through a gentle rinse cycle, washing away a day’s worth of toxic by-products in preparation for a new day of thinking ahead.

But the mechanisms behind this neurological cleansing system have yet to be described in detail.

Now researchers from the University of Copenhagen have applied a suite of technologies to map the subtle rise and fall of neurotransmitters, blood volume, and spinal fluid in mice as they go about their day.
