Google Cloud has launched a tool powered by artificial intelligence (AI) to combat money laundering. The tool could pave the way for surveillance when tied with the so-called social credit system, however. The cloud computing subsidiary of the search engine giant launched the Anti Money Laundering AI (AML AI) tool, which is designed to detect […]

Smart homes are supposed to make life easier — but the technology is far from fool-proof.

Isaac Asimoc, a writer well-known for his works of science fiction, penned the “Three Laws of Robotics” in 1972. Asimov wrote these “laws” while thinking about androids, and he imagined a world where human-like robots would have human masters and need a set of programming rules to prevent them from causing harm. But 51 years after […]

A British study has found that heavy electric vehicles cause twice as much damage to road surfaces as their internal combustion engine-powered equivalents. This study, led by researchers from the University of Leeds, has found that the average electric car puts 2.24 times more stress on the roads than a gas-powered vehicle of similar size and […]

Americans can appreciate a good cause and will “get behind” it if they think it makes sense. It’s easy if it supports something they believe in and want to help improve, but what if that “support” turns out to do exactly the opposite, by making the problem much worse? The US government needs the majority […]

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) is permanently reshaping warfare, and experts warn this could lead to the creation of fully autonomous killer drones. Much attention is focused on the development of unmanned aerial vehicles or drones and their use in warfare, with many military and intelligence experts warning that the wars of tomorrow may not […]

Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms can predict a person’s political ideology just by looking at their facial characteristics, according to a new study. Researchers from Denmark and Sweden tested out this theory by utilizing a computational neural networks, algorithms that mimic the structure and function of human brains. They then trained the Face API from Microsoft, […]

The popular tourist destination of Ulko-Tammio, an island in Finland, is attempting to become the world’s first phone-free tourist zone – meaning no more snapping photos and uploading them to Facebook and Instagram. For the first time, officials in Ulko-Tammio are asking visitors to turn their smartphones off – or better yet, to just leave […]

Officials at the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) confirmed that a top-secret military acoustic detection system for spotting enemy submarines also detected the implosion of the OceanGate Titan submersible. The submersible, which departed for an expedition to the shipwreck of the ill-fated Titanic that sank in 1912, also suffered the passenger line’s fate after losing […]

A German explorer who took the harrowing trip a couple of years ago aboard the very same mini-sub that mysteriously sank with five people aboard while descending to catch a glimpse of the Titanic is really just a “suicide mission.” Arthur Loibl, who visited the site in 2021 in the OceanGate Titan submersible, told the […]
