The “digital dividend”: Rethinking income for the age of AI

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

The world had time to react to the invention of the wheel, the creation of the printing press, the industrial revolution, and the start of the internet and computer-based work. Industries adapted, people retooled and reskilled themselves to perform the new work that needed to be done. The AI revolution is different. Its rapid advancement has left many spinning in worry and despair, as they feel they have no time to prepare or prevent their own d…Artificial Intelligence Read Article

The ocean is evolving, and it’s not based on the ‘survival of the fittest’

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

What if evolution isn’t just about the strongest winning? Astrobiologist Betül Kaçar explains that life survives by working together, not just by competing. To elaborate, she uses an example about microbes in the Black Sea that help other organisms by sharing energy. True evolution, she says, is not about being the best alone, it’s about connection, cooperation, and learning to live together. This video The ocean is evolving, and it’s not based …Bulgaria · Bulgaria Read Article

Ask Ethan: Could the CMB arise from galaxies, not the Big Bang?

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

Every once in a while, an idea comes along that turns our conventional understanding of the Universe on its head. We have our current understanding of the Universe: the laws that govern reality, the conditions and properties of the physical Universe, and the initial conditions that gave rise to the cosmos we observe today. But sometimes, surprises fall into our lap, and they cause us to re-evaluate everything we think we know. However, new infor…United States · United States Read Article

Brian Cox: The Planck scale is where physics breaks

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

What happens when you try to look too closely at the fabric of the universe? When we gaze at a Planck length, a scale so small that even light becomes useless for observation, physics pushes back. The Planck length is not just a tiny number, it’s a boundary where gravity, quantum mechanics, and relativity collide. Physicist Brian Cox explains why the measurement is a portal to the deep structure of reality, and why going beyond it may break the…Brian Cox Read Article

Inside the subtle art of succession

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

Over the past few years, I’ve come to see succession as more than a corporate formality — or a brilliant HBO series. It’s the essential tool to building anything that lasts. Put simply: if you care about compounding over time, you need systems that outlive you. That’s why I’m excited to announce a new collaboration with VestGen Wealth Partners, where I’ll be writing a column on the art of succession — in business, investing, and life. The first …Lombardy, Italy · Lombardy Read Article

A unique mission to both Uranus and Neptune could launch in 2034

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

Here in the 21st century, we’ve learned so much more about our Universe than we could have imagined even just a single generation ago. Back in 1990, we hadn’t discovered any planets orbiting stars beyond our own Solar System; today, we’re closing in on 6000 confirmed exoplanets. Back then, the only prospects for life beyond Earth were potential microbes on planets or moons in our backyard; now, we know of scores of stars that may host living wor…United States · United States Read Article

The noble lie: Why countries that lie together, stay together

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

In some ways, the idea of a nation is a strange thing. You can understand families, tribes, clans, and small villages a bit more easily. It makes sense for a species to look after its kin, and there’s a compelling argument to be made that reciprocal friendships are evolutionarily advantageous in some way. We are a social animal. A nation, though, takes a bit more explaining. How can you develop a sense of unity and connection between millions of…United Kingdom · United Kingdom Read Article

American science to soon face its largest brain drain in history

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

From World War II until 2024, the US stood unchallenged as the scientific leader of the free world. Across practically every discipline — physics, materials science, astronomy, chemistry, biology, medicine, geology, etc. — American scientific missions and initiatives, often in collaboration with European, Canadian, Asian, and many other global partners, brought us new advances and breakthroughs, paving the way for generations of scientists to th…Science · United States See the Story
