Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep disorder that affects millions of people worldwide.
It occurs when the throat muscles of a person relax and block the airflow into the lungs during sleep.
OSA can cause symptoms such as loud snoring, restless sleep, daytime sleepiness, and morning headaches, which can be debilitating for both the patient and their partner.
IN THE NEAR FUTURE, we should anticipate certain technological developments that will forever change our world. For instance, today’s text-based ChatGPT will evolve to give rise to personal “conversational AI” assistants installed in smart glasses and contact lenses that will gradually phase out smartphones. Technological advances in fields such as AI, AR/VR, bionics, and cybernetics, will eventually lead to “generative AI”-powered immersive neurotechnology that enables you to create virtual environments and holographic messages directly from your thoughts, with your imagination serving as the “prompt engineer.” What will happen when everyone constantly broadcasts their mind?

Can the pursuit of experience lead to true enlightenment? Are we edging towards Experiential Nirvana on a civilizational level despite certain turbulent events?
There is a new catchphrase that some are using when it comes to talking about today’s generative AI. I am loath to repeat the phrase, but the angst in doing so is worth the chances of trying to curtail the usage going forward.
Are you ready?
Some have been saying that generative AI such as ChatGPT is so-called alien intelligence. Hogwash. This kind of phrasing has to be stopped. Here’s the reasons to do so.
Has AI advanced too far and too fast? Does it represent an out-of-control threat to humanity? Some credible observers believe AI may have reached a tipping point, and that if research on the technology continues unchecked, AI could spin out of control and become dangerous.
This article explores how Google responded to ChatGPT by using foundation models and generative AI to create innovative products and improve its existing offerings. It also examines Google’s use of Safe AI when creating new products.
“Moreover, in all of these tasks, GPT-4’s performance is strikingly close to human-level performance, and often vastly surpasses prior models such as ChatGPT. Given the breadth and depth of GPT-4’s capabilities, we believe that it could reasonably be viewed as an early (yet still incomplete) version of an artificial general intelligence (AGI) system.”
We are indeed living in “interesting” times.
Each project will get up to $600,000 over two years to continue developing the concepts.
National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Innovative Advanced Concepts program has chosen six research teams to receive Phase II funds.
“NASA’s story is one of [the] barriers broken, and technologies transformed to support our missions and benefit all of humanity,” said NASA Administrator Bill Nelson.

China’s future rocket models will make use of the technology developed for recovering rockets, claims report.
China has successfully tested a rocket’s vertical landing in the ocean, laying the groundwork for upcoming space travel and recycling technology.
The Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) confirmed that its commercial spaceflight firm, CAS Space, conducted the successful testing on Thursday in Haiyang, East China’s Shandong Province, according to the State-run media Global Times.
“Give it a shot! We think this tool will transform your linguistic-visual process both in terms of creative power and discovery.”
San Francisco-based independent Artificial Intelligence research lab Midjourney unveiled their new “/describe” feature that transforms images into words in a tweet. The company, popular for its AI-fueled ability to create images based on a series of prompts, launched more features including “repeat” and “permutations” for its pro subscribers.
Paul DelSignore, creative technologist and artificial intelligence aficionado, took to Medium to break down how these could benefit users. He envisions a future with better search engine indexing and search functionality as a result of “/describe”.
Communication without boundaries. “We’re moving sonar onto the body.”
Cornell University researchers have developed a new technology allowing silent communication through sonar glasses. The glasses use tiny microphones and speakers to read the words that are silently mouthed by the wearer, allowing them to perform various tasks without needing physical input. The technology was developed by Ruidong Zhang, a Ph.D. student at Cornell, and builds off of a similar project that used a wireless earbud and previous models that relied on cameras.
Highly-Accurate Design.
The glasses are designed to be unobtrusive and not require the user to face a camera or wear an earbud.
AInstein robot can respond to inquiries from pupils and even illustrate Albert Einstein’s theory of temporal relativity using a pendulum.
High school students in Cyprus have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) robot that uses ChatGPT to enhance classroom learning.
The Three PASCAL schools’ creation, AInstein, can hold dialogues, produce textual content, and crack jokes, according to an article published on Thursday by Voice of America (VOA).
After almost a decade, Google have finally managed to develop a file sharing function like Apple’s AirDrop. Called Nearby Share, here’s how your use it.
Whatever your opinion about which operating system is the best, iOS has had one major advantage over Android and Windows for some time, its AirDrop feature. In fact, for more than a decade, AirDrop has been a source of pride for Apple users and a cause of resentment for many who desire an easy way to share files between Windows and Android.
