Weather forecasting has always been unpredictable — and climate modeling even more so. However, advances in modeling techniques and computing power have greatly improved our ability to anticipate nature’s behavior. Researchers at the Max Planck Institute unveil a near–kilometer-scale model combining weather and climate simulation. A Near–Kilometer-Scale Model of Earth’s Systems The model’s resolution is

A smart ring aims to turn voice into an interface and thoughts into actions, marking the dawn of conversational wearables and reshaping how we engage with AI. For decades, our interaction with technology has revolved around screens, keyboards, and touch. Now, a new generation of devices is reimagining that relationship—where speech, gesture, and presence emerge

In a lab in the scenic Swiss town of Vevey, a scientist nourishes small clusters of human brain cells with a nutrient-rich solution to keep them alive. Mini-brains must stay healthy to process information, since unlike laptops, they can’t reboot once they die. This new field, called biocomputing or “wetware,” aims to harness the brain’s
