Self-healing endpoint platform providers are under pressure to create new solutions to help CISOs consolidate tech stacks while improving cyber-resiliency. CISOs see the potential of self-healing platforms to reduce costs, increase visibility and capture real-time data that quantifies how cyber-resilient they are becoming. And reducing costs while increasing cyber-resilience is the risk profile their boards of directors want.

A self-healing endpoint is one that combines self-diagnostics with the adaptive intelligence to identify a suspected or actual breach attempt and take immediate action to stop it. Self-healing endpoints can shut themselves off, complete a re-check of all OS and application versioning, and then reset themselves to an optimized, secure configuration — all autonomously with no human intervention.

UK researchers have developed a novel technique that could enable the development of quantum computers operating on million qubits.

The PneumoPlanet inflatable lunar habitat offers an opportunity for future lunar astronauts to comfortably live, eat and work on the moon, its designers say.

Railguns, Coilguns, Gauss Cannons, MAC Guns, what does it all mean? This week we’re exploring the topic of Electromagnetic weapons. From Halo to just Science Fiction in general, they’re a staple due to their cool designs but also because of how close we are to building them today. We’ll look at a few of the weapons we see in Halo as well as some real world experiments and designs showing just how close we are to having MAC Guns in space ourselves!

If you have any questions or comments, leave them in the comments section below. I’d love to hear from you!

The losses for short-sellers betting against Elon Musk’s electric vehicle company have ballooned to $7.6 billion over the past month, making it the least profitable short position for hedge funds, according to data from S3 Partners.

The swift one-month surge in Tesla stock has wiped out about half of the gains short-sellers made last year betting against the company. At the end of December, short-sellers had made a $15 billion profit in 2022, making Tesla the most profitable short of the year.

Shares of Tesla have been on a rollercoaster following vehicle price cuts and a weaker-than-expected fourth-quarter delivery number. But on the company’s most recent earnings call, Musk reaffirmed the company’s long-term growth target of 50%.

Google chief evangelist and “father of the internet” Vint Cerf has a message for executives looking to rush business deals on chat artificial intelligence: “Don’t.”

Cerf pleaded with attendees at a Mountain View, California, conference on Monday not to scramble to invest in conversational AI just because “it’s a hot topic.” The warning comes amid a burst in popularity for ChatGPT.

After decades of speculation, real-world artificial intelligence has finally hit a tipping point. Now that we know what AI models like ChatGPT and DALL-E can do, should we be worried?

Summary: Tracking hippocampal neurons in mice as they watched a movie revealed novel ways to improve artificial intelligence and track neurological disorders associated with memory and learning deficits.

Even the legendary filmmaker Orson Welles couldn’t have imagined such a plot twist.

Not going to happen unless some “doomsdayers” decide to take man back to analog. Perish the thought!

Which brings us to Big Blue – not Big Brother – and its move to take artificial intelligence into the cloud minus all the hardware.

Yes, IBM (and let’s not leave out Red Hat, IBM’s core cloud player) has found another way to tout its cloud computing business by creating what it calls an artificial intelligence-focused supercomputer that exists in the cloud.
