NVIDIA has revealed that their RTX GPUs power the iconic Vegas sphere, a major attraction in Las Vegas covering nearly 750,000 square feet. The sphere features 150 RTX A6000 GPUs with over 10K cores, 48 GB of memory, and a 300W TDP, totaling 1,612,800 cores, 72,000 GB of GDDR6 memory, and 45,000W of power consumption. … Read more
Luma AI, a San Francisco-based artificial intelligence startup, has launched a new feature called “Loops” for its Dream Machine platform. This update allows users to create seamless, continuous video loops from text descriptions, images, or keyframes. Content creators and digital marketers can now produce endless video sequences without visible cuts or transitions, expanding their options … Read more
Here is a rewritten version of the text in simpler language: For three years, researchers gave people in Illinois and Texas $1,000 every month as part of an experiment to see if giving everyone a basic income would work. The money came from Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, who thinks that one day artificial … Read more
Feeding on the Disrespect of Others is Not Our Optimal State Resilience, cooperation, and performance emerge from physiological safety and trust. We evolved to be a species that regulates our feelings through trusted others. We are influenced by the verbal and nonverbal cues of those around us, whether we like it or not. Changes in … Read more
What an intriguing discovery! The finding that deep-sea manganese nodules are producing oxygen in a process known as “dark oxygen production” has significant implications for our understanding of the ocean’s ecosystem and the potential consequences of deep-sea mining. The research, led by Dr. Sweetman, suggests that these nodules may be acting as natural batteries, generating … Read more
Scientists have successfully created a time crystal at room temperature, which is a significant breakthrough in this field. Time crystals usually require extremely low temperatures and complex equipment to form. This new approach uses rubidium atoms that are “inflated” by exciting their electrons. This process creates a stable system where the atoms behave in a … Read more
Recent observations by ESA’s XMM-Newton and NASA’s Chandra have revealed three unusually cold, young neutron stars. This finding challenges current models, showing they cool much faster than expected. The discovery has significant implications, suggesting that only a few proposed neutron star models are viable, and pointing to a potential breakthrough in linking the theories of … Read more

Magic mushrooms temporarily “dissolve” brain network responsible for sense of self Psilocybin reduces synchronicity within brain network responsible for reflection and sense of self. The active ingredient in magic mushrooms, psilocybin, disrupts the brain’s default mode network, which is responsible for our sense of self. This study found that the effects of psilocybin persisted even … Read more
