Artificial intelligence can be impressive to the extent that people think it might one day acquire human intelligence and, with it, consciousness. But AI can be far more intelligent than humans without ever being conscious. And apart from us having no idea how to create conscious AI, it might not even be that desirable. We fool ourselves if we think conscious beings are the exemplar of intelligence in the universe, argues Susan Schneider in this interview with iai News.
Forty-six representations of ancient Egyptian goddesses were found in a mural completely covered in bird dung in an ancient temple.
During ancient times, the ancient Egyptians built Esna on the west bank of the River Nile: the city that served as a center of power in Upper Egypt. While they were in office, public buildings and temples were decorated with ornate murals dedicated to gods from the sacred pantheon. Over time, the ancient ceremonial centers became covered in sand, dust, and animal feces.
Paul Dirac predicted antimatter in 1928 and within a matter of few years antimatter was found by American physicist Carl Anderson.
Can We Stop the Sun from Destroying Earth?

AMHERST, Mass. – 5G wireless technology is just starting to take off worldwide, but a new study is already speculating on the future of 6G! Researchers from the University of Massachusetts-Amherst say, unlike older technology, 6G could end up using people as antennas.
Specifically, 6G telecommunications could possibly take advantage of Visible Light Communication (VLC), which is like a wireless version of fiberoptics. Right now, fiberoptics use incredibly thin glass or plastic strands to transmit information on flashes of light. These wires are extremely small, but also extremely fragile.
Scientists at Brookhaven National Laboratory have uncovered an entirely new kind of quantum entanglement, a phenomenon that causes particles to become weirdly linked, even across vast cosmic distances, reports a new study. The discovery allowed them to capture an unprecedented glimpse of the bizarre world inside atoms, the tiny building blocks of matter.
The mind-bending research resolves a longstanding mystery about the nuclei of atoms, which contain particles called protons and neutrons, and could help shed light on topics ranging from quantum computing to astrophysics.

MRNA vaccines helped us through the covid-19 pandemic—but they could also help defend against many other infectious diseases, offer universal protection against flu, and even treat cancer.

Nvidia Isaac AI robot simulation just added several new features, including advancements in Isaac Gym for reinforcement learning and Isaac Cortex for collaborative robot programming, as well as a new tool called Isaac ORBIT, which provides simulation operating environments and benchmarks for intelligent robot learning and motion planning. New open source Dream3D turns text prompts into 3D modeling objects much faster than OpenAI Point-E. Breakthrough Google Muse turns text into high-quality images with accuracy and greater speed than DALL-E 2 from OpenAI and Google’s Imagen or Parti.
