Four astronauts are getting ready to launch from Florida.
NASA’s next space station launch is set for Halloween and will put four more astronauts into space on a SpaceX rocket.
The Crew-3 launch is scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 31 at 2:21 a.m. EDT (0721 GMT), using a Falcon 9 rocket. The launch will take place at Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. NASA Television and SpaceX broadcast details will be released at a later date.

The volcano bitcoin mining is also super eco-friendly: 3.
El Salvador has officially begun to mine Bitcoin using the power harnessed from an honest-to-god volcano — and the so-called “volcanode” has already made 0.00599179 bitcoin, or about $269, according to a tweet by president Nayib Bukele.
“We’re still testing and installing, but this is officially the first Bitcoin mining from the volcanode,” Bukele wrote.
Relying on green geothermal energy to mine Bitcoin makes a lot of sense given that the process is extremely power intensive.
When’s the last time you chirped, “Hey Google” (or Siri for that matter), and asked your phone for a recommendation for good sushi in the area, or perhaps asked what time sunset would be? Most folks these days perform these tasks on a regular basis on their phones, but you may not have realized there were multiple AI (Artificial Intelligence) engines involved in quickly delivering the results for your request.
In these examples, AI neural network models were used to process natural language recognition, and then also inferred what you were looking for, to deliver relevant search results from internet databases around the globe, but also targeting the most appropriate results based on your location and a number of other factors as well. These are just a couple of examples but, in short, AI or machine learning processing is a big requirement of smartphone experiences these days, from recommendation engines to translation, computational photography and more.
As such, benchmarking tools are now becoming more prevalent, in an effort to measure mobile platform performance. MLPerf is one such tool that nicely covers the gamut of AI workloads, and today Qualcomm is highlighting some fairly impressive results in a recent major update to the MLCommons database. MLCommons is an open consortium comprised of various chip manufacturers and OEMs with founding members like Intel, NVIDIA, Arm, AMD, Google, Qualcomm and many others. The consortium’s MLPerf benchmark measures AI workloads like image classification, natural language processing and object detection. And today Qualcomm has tabulated benchmark results from its Snapdragon 888+ Mobile Platform (a slightly goosed-up version of its Snapdragon 888) versus a myriad of competitive mobile chipsets from Samsung, MediaTek and even and Intel’s 11th Gen Core series laptop chips.
The effects of AI on society are not just limited to the workplace. Recently, there has been a lot of talk about how AI will affect our social interactions and how we create and experience social spaces.
AI-driven architecture for social spaces presents us with new opportunities as well as challenges. In his work, Babar Kasam Cazir explores the implications of how artificial intelligence could change socioeconomic dynamics — specifically in event spaces — through its ability to analyze patterns at scale.

The magic of the digital industrial revolution lies in gifting the spark of intelligence to every piece of industrial equipment. But the true full value of the digital-industrial revolution can only be unlocked by turning every intelligent machine into a fully integrated member of the team.
Every corporate leader knows that the rapid and efficient flow of information plays an essential role in making a team effective: it allows all team members to have a complete view of the process, to learn from new incoming information and to react in a coordinated way to unexpected developments. Over time, technology has developed new ways for human colleagues to collaborate more effectively, exchanging documents, videos and ideas – Slack is perhaps the most well-known example.
And it’s based on a kind of plasma.
A new design of a plasma jet engine was unveiled last year by a group of researchers in China. While not a new technology in and of itself, this new design could be the secret to allowing the use of these engines in the atmosphere — not just limited to space.
