Scientists at MIT have unlocked a major breakthrough in the battle to reverse the effects of Alzheimer’s disease — one that shows “dramatic reductions” in neurodegeneration, a report stated. The exciting achievement came about after researchers were able to interfere with an enzyme typically found to be overactive in the brains of Alzheimer’s patients.
Sodium-ion batteries (Na-ion) are being put into small Chinese EVs that are priced significantly lower than prevailing EV models.
OpenAI’s breakthrough consistency model will lead into image understanding to make GPT4 multimodal, providing next generation improvements with human-computer interaction, human-robot interaction, and even helping the disabled. Microsoft has already released a predecessor to GPT4 image understanding by with Visual ChatGPT, which is much more limited in its abilities.

The agency will look at developing a standard policy for setting privacy rules on artificial intelligence.
AI-enabled language models are becoming commonplace of late, spearheaded by the disruption caused by OpenAI’s ChatGPT. In its wake, we have seen other technological players like Google and Microsoft scrambling to catch up to the competition by introducing their respective models to the public.
As a counterbalance, global authorities are doing due diligence to evolve a common framework to regulate the industry.

The recent run of the reactor broke the previous record run of 101 seconds which was achieved in May 2021. The experiment which was completed after the researchers made 120,000 attempts will be a critical data point for the operation of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), of which China is also a member.
This has important implications for measuring the mass of the central black hole in M87.
Look at the image on the left and then the image on the right. They are by no means identical. But what if we told you that both the images are of the same object?

StoreDot has been touting its extreme fast charging batteries for a time. The plan is to reduce pack sizes and speed up charging to make EVs more accessible.
Astronomers are hot on the search for new exoplanets – planets that lie beyond our Solar System – which might show potential for sustaining life.
Finding ways to integrate electronics into living tissue could be crucial for everything from brain implants to new medical technologies. A new approach has shown that it’s possible to 3D print circuits into living worms.
There has been growing interest in finding ways to more closely integrate technology with the human body, in particular when it comes to interfacing electronics with the nervous system. This will be crucial for future brain-machine interfaces and could also be used to treat a host of neurological conditions.
But for the most part, it’s proven difficult to make these kinds of connections in ways that are non-invasive, long-lasting, and effective. The rigid nature of standard electronics means they don’t mix well with the squishy world of biology, and getting them inside the body in the first place can require risky surgical procedures.
