IN A NUTSHELL 🚀 A new propulsion technology claims to revolutionize space travel by generating thrust without expelling propellant, challenging established physical laws. 📚 The concept echoes the controversial EmDrive, which failed scientific validation, highlighting the need for rigorous testing of bold claims. 🌟 Charles Buhler and his team, including experts from NASA and Blue
Researchers demonstrate a robust and scalable quantum game that consistently achieved quantum “pseudotelepathy.”
A research group at the University of Stuttgart has manipulated light through its interaction with a metal surface so that it exhibits entirely new properties. The researchers have published their findings in Nature Physics.
“Our results add another chapter to the emerging field of skyrmion research,” proclaims Prof. Harald Giessen, head of the Fourth Physics Institute at the University of Stuttgart, whose group achieved this breakthrough. The team demonstrated the existence of “skyrmion bags” of light on the surface of a metal layer.
Typhoid fever might be rare in developed countries, but this ancient threat, thought to have been around for millennia, is still very much a danger in our modern world.
According to research published in 2022, the bacterium that causes typhoid fever is evolving extensive drug resistance, and it’s rapidly replacing strains that aren’t resistant.
Currently, antibiotics are the only way to effectively treat typhoid, which is caused by the bacterium Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (S Typhi). Yet over the past three decades, the bacterium’s resistance to oral antibiotics has been growing and spreading.
Nanobots aren’t just microscopic machines—they could come in countless shapes and sizes, each designed for a unique purpose. From medical nanobots that repair cells to swarming micro-robots that build structures at the atomic level, the future of nanotechnology is limitless. Could these tiny machines revolutionize medicine, industry, and even space exploration? #Nanotech #Nanobots #FutureTech #Science #Innovation …

Recent rapid progress in artificial intelligence has prompted renewed interest in the possibility of consciousness in artificial systems. This talk argues that this question forces us to confront troubling methodological challenges for consciousness science. The surprising capabilities of large language models provide reason to think that many, if not all, cognitive capabilities will soon be within reach of artificial systems. However, these advancements do not help us resolve strictly metaphysical questions concerning substrate-independence, multiple realizability, or the connection between consciousness and life. Ultimately, I suggest that these questions are likely to be settled not by philosophical argument or scientific experimentation, but by patterns of interactions between humans and machines. As we form valuable and affectively-laden relationships with ever more intelligent machines, it will become progressively harder to treat them as non-conscious entities. Whether this shift will amount to a vindication of AI consciousness or a form of mass delusion remains far from obvious.
Pure experiential properties are properties of experiencing subjects that are purely phenomenally constituted: to have such properties is exhausted by the way it is like to have them. A thinker who is acquainted with such properties by having them is in a position to form phenomenal concepts of such properties, concepts in terms of the way it is like to have them.
Certain phenomenal concepts of experiential properties are nature-revealing: the thinker having such concepts has full access to what it is to have the property the concept is used to attribute. This is the thesis of phenomenal essentialism, the starting point of an argument for dualism about experiential properties which will be developed in the talk. According to the dualist thesis at issue to have an experiential property does not consist in the fulfillment of any physical condition.
Full Title: The argument from understanding for property dualism about experiential properties.
In the context of minimal phenomenal experience (MPE), the prevailing assumption is that subjectivity is entirely absent in pure awareness. This conclusion is based on the dissolution of specific properties of subjectivity, such as the first-person perspective and self-localization in space. However, while these properties are integral to subjectivity, their absence does not negate the existence of subjectivity itself. Some individuals report experiencing a bare witness or a sense of presence that might be a default property of consciousness, with other properties(FPP) being content-induced.
Similarly, MPE is often considered timeless due to the lack of change(zero content). We propose that the very persistence of awareness—being aware of itself as the only content—could serve as a rudimentary marker for the passage of time. Imagine an opera singer holding a note: while there’s no pitch change, the experience of the sustained note creates persistence of same experience and duration. Likewise, the persistence of awareness in MPE might provide a minimal sense of time.
Two tiny aluminum drumheads. A temperature colder than space. And a secret experiment that’s changing everything we thought we knew about reality. In this video, we reveal the mind-blowing story behind the Quantum Drum Experiment — where scientists pushed the limits of the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle and opened a portal to a new era of quantum measurement. With fog swirling in a cryogenic chamber, these drums don’t just make sound — they bend the rules of the universe.
Stick around till the end to see how this could impact your future.
