A new survey conducted by the Canadian government has found that polar bears in the country’s Western Hudson Bay, are dying at alarming rates. The researchers aerially surveyed the Bay and its nearby town of Churchill also referred to as the ‘Bear capital of the World’ in 2021 and found there were 618 bears only, compared to 842, five years ago when last counted.

The survey added that a significant decline has been noted in the population of adult female bears and cubs between 2011 and 2021.

“The observed declines are consistent with long-standing predictions regarding the demographic effects of climate change on polar bears,” said the researchers.

A scientist shares what he’s learned about living longer, with the help of worms. Scientists are hard at work trying to understand what causes aging and how to help people stay healthy for longer. Biologist Matt Kaeberlein breaks down the science of longevity and tells us how he’s using a robot to test 100,000 aging drugs a year on microscopic worms and a long-term study on the aging of pet dogs. And we’ll leave the lab to visit Willie Mae Avery, the oldest person in Washington D.C., to hear what it’s like to live such a long life.

About Overheard at National Geographic:

Lately, a lot of anti-AI art groups started to emerge online, they started pressuring companies to ban any images generated by AI on their websites. Recently they managed to cancel Unstable Diffusion’s Kickstarter and Patreon page because of their disdain of AI art. They claim to be an open and welcoming community but are not afraid of going all out against people who don’t agree with their point of view. In this video, I will explain everything that happened recently in the AI art community, the dangers that represent these groups for freedom of expression and the future I see for AI art in general.

What do you think of this situation? Let me know in the comments!

In this video Professor Sebastiano discusses the three most advanced interventions that Turn Bio is working on, for skin, immunology and muscles and when they will be available for human trial.

Professor Vittorio Sebastiano manages a lab in Stanford University which developed and patented technology for partial cellular reprogramming. He co-founded Turn Bio, where he is now Head of research, to translate this technology into clinical applications. And with that, let me start the interview.

Digital transformation is well underway at most companies these days. As more processes become digitized, more companies recognize the opportunities for Artificial Intelligence-driven efficiency gains. However, greater AI adoption still faces stumbling blocks, often present in the nature of an organization’s workflow.


One of the major stumbling blocks to AI adoption among organizations is the lack of a data-driven culture. Here are three ways organizations can become more data-driven to leverage AI better.

Amid rising mortgage rates and surging housing prices, one company is betting that 3D printing homes is a solution to the affordable housing crisis. Nancy Chen takes a look.

Universal media synthesis, the innovation pyramid and autolism — part 1

AI can now generate images and text that’s as good as a human. What happens when AI can generate all kinds of media as good as a human?

******Remember, the future is unknowable. I do not know the future. I speculate on what m_i_g_h_t happen given a set of starting assumptions. I can speculate about what’s possible but make sure to separate speculation from fact. If you understand these pretenses, then let us speculate about the future of technology.
