Engineers have devised a new technique to clear space debris using magnets.
This would allow you to move the debris where you wanted it to go without actually having to touch it. “What we wanted to do was to manipulate the thing, not just shove it but actually manipulate it like you do on Earth,” Abbott said. “That form of dexterous manipulation has never been done before.”
While this is important for clearing out space junk that can’t be repaired, this method could also be … See more.

Amazon will launch the first two of its Project Kuiper internet satellites in the fourth quarter of 2,022 in a bid to tap the market for internet satellite constellations, a press statement from the delivery giant reveals.
Amazon announced Project Kuiper last week, alongside a partnership with Verizon, which will provide its telecommunications expertise. The two firms are following in the footsteps of SpaceX’… See more.

Clearly, sepsis treatment deserves to be focused on, which is what Epic did. But in doing so, they raised several thorny questions. Should the model be recalibrated for each discrete implementation? Are its workings transparent? Should such algorithms publish confidence along with its prediction? Are humans sufficiently in the loop to ensure that the algorithm outputs are being interpreted and implem… See more.
Earlier this year, I wrote about fatal flaws in algorithms that were developed to mitigate the COVID-19 pandemic. Researchers found two general types of flaws. The first is that model makers used small data sets that didn’t represent the universe of patients which the models were intended to represent leading to sample selection bias. The second is that modelers failed to disclose data sources, data-modeling techniques and the potential for bias in either the input data or the algorithms used to train their models leading to design related bias. As a result of these fatal flaws, such algorithms were inarguably less effective than their developers had promised.
Now comes a flurry of articles on an algorithm developed by Epic to provide an early warning tool for sepsis. According to the CDC, “sepsis is the body’s extreme response to an infection. It is a life-threatening medical emergency and happens when an infection you already have triggers a chain reaction throughout your body. Without timely treatment, sepsis can rapidly lead to tissue damage, organ failure, and death. Nearly 270,000 Americans die as a result of sepsis.”
The UK Government recently announced its first-ever National AI Strategy – a 10-year plan aimed at staking a place for the country among the world’s AI superpowers.
There’s an odd twist to human physiology not seen in any other primate 0 that makes giving birth more complicated for our species. Now, a study using biomechanical modelling on gait and posture has provided some insights into this long-standing mystery.
The narrow shape of the human birth canal is kinked at the inlet, so that contractions of the mother must rotate the baby’s big brain and wide shoulders nearly 90 degrees to fit into the pelvis.
To figure out how to populate Mars, you need to have the mind of Einstein, the wit of Louis CK and…

The eggs of these two condors must have been fertilized on their own without the involvement of sperm. Is such a thing even possible? Scientists do think it is possible and this strange process is called Parthenogenesis.

The future of Neuromorphic computing and nanotechnology enabling real life Nanosuits is already here according to several leading scientists in that field. Whether it’s the Nanosuit from Iron Man or from Crysis, the nanobots and brain computer interfaces which make those intelligent smart clothes up work in a very similar way.
Neuromorphic computing essentially involves assembling artificial neurons to function based on the principles of the human brain. It works on Spiking Neural Networks or SNNs, where each “neuron” sends independent signals to other neurons. It emulates natural neural networks that exist in biological brains.

Would you rather pay six figures for a flying motorcycle than a high-end supercar? It’s a bet that at least one Japanese company makes.
A.L.I. Technologies have just unveiled a new full-fledged hoverbike to persuade drivers to ditch their expensive four-wheelers in favor of the latest “icon of air mobility.” The XTurismo, a limited edition, went on sale earlier this week.
The company used the vehicle to announce the slick-looking XTurismo Limited Edition hoverbike release, now available for pre-order with deliveries expected in 2022.
