Sign up to see the future, today Can’t-miss innovations from the bleeding edge of science and tech The form factor of smartphones hasn’t changed all too much since the original iPhone debuted back in 2007. Ever since, we’ve had the same old slab format that’s grown more and more tired. Apart from foldable smartphones that have struggled to carve out a major footprint, it’s all more of the same.

NVIDIA CEO Jensen revealed that not only does Space AI solve the AI energy scaling problem and the compute scaling problem, it also solves the data scaling problem. AI scaling is the core principle driving modern AI progress: bigger is reliably better. When you train neural networks with more compute, more data, and the energy needed to run them, performance improves in smooth, predictable ways — following mathematical “power laws” discovered in 2020–2022 and tracked ever since by Epoch AI. Here’s how the three ingredients work together:Compute (FLOPs)The total number of calculations during training.10× more compute ≈ 10× bigger model…

The Aerospace Safety Advisory Panel (ASAP), which advises NASA and Congress on safety, has released its 2025 annual report on NASA’s performance and challenges.   While the panel acknowledged NASA’s safety achievements, it warned that the agency’s biggest challenges stem from interconnected factors – workforce, acquisition, technical authority, budgets, and the growing complexity of human spaceflight – requiring sustained attention as missions become more ambitious. “Independent assessments like this will make NASA better,” said NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman. “The panel’s report underscores areas where we must raise the bar, from how we structure oversight and manage integrated risk to how we declare and learn from anomalies. We are wholly committed to transparency. That’s how we…

This post is brought to you in paid partnership with Petlibro We spend a significant amount of time optimizing our own health: tracking our sleep, monitoring our heart rates, and dialing in our nutrition.

Petlibro is shifting that dynamic with the Luma Smart Litter Box. Since its quiet launch late last year, it has quickly become a staple in thousands of modern households. It moves the concept of a self-cleaning litter box past mere…

A blurry photo is one of the most disappointing things ever. You frame the perfect shot, tap the shutter and later, when you look back at it, you realize the image looks soft and out of focus.

Thankfully, we’re no longer stuck with “it is what it is” as the only option. There’s a growing wave of free, open-source tools solving everyday problems. Built by communities, these tools aim to make technology more useful…
