Neuroethics experts warn that the futuristic visions of investors like Elon Musk and Sam Altman may actually slow down genuine progress in neurotechnology — especially in medical treatments. They argue that the obsession with ideas such as “uploading the human mind to a computer” distracts attention and funding from therapies that could already be helping patients today.
An innovative electric vehicle battery from U.S.-based Sakuu Corporation, produced using a solvent-free dry electrode process, has completed 4,000 charging cycles while retaining 83% of its original capacity. This development could dramatically extend EV battery life and accelerate the global shift to electric mobility.
Scientists at the Technical University of Munich have developed a method for producing egg proteins through precision fermentation — a potential breakthrough for the food industry, which has long struggled with allergens, unstable supply chains, and the high environmental footprint of poultry farming.
The UK’s National Health Service (NHS) has launched a pilot program covering 45 remote patient monitoring projects. According to the Department of Health and Social Care, the technology could save as many as half a million hospital appointments annually.
Scientists from the University of Nottingham have developed an innovative protein-based gel capable of regenerating tooth enamel. The technology could revolutionize dentistry by offering an alternative to drilling and fillings — and may help millions suffering from sensitivity and enamel erosion.
A new dataset developed by an international team of researchers and published in Nature could revolutionize how human-recognition AI is developed and tested. FHIBE (Fair Human-Centric Image Benchmark) is the first large-scale, ethical, and diverse image dataset designed to combat bias and errors in computer vision systems.
Wandercraft has announced that its self-balancing exoskeleton, Atalante X, has received a second clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in less than two years — expanding access to advanced, hands-free gait therapy for patients with spinal cord injuries (SCI) and multiple sclerosis (MS).
Fox News has published a report based on fake, AI-generated videos. The clips turned out to be entirely created by artificial intelligence. It’s yet another example of how easily misinformation can spread in the era of AI-generated videos without proper source verification.
Israeli startup Pulsenmore has received FDA approval to sell a home ultrasound device for pregnant women — marking the first time in history that a prenatal imaging technology has been authorized for use outside a clinical setting.
