In January 2024, physicists at TU Dortmund University demonstrated a continuous time crystal in a semiconductor whose oscillations remained stable for hours. In a new study published in Nature Communications, Professor Alex Greilich and his team show that many such time crystals can form in the same material and synchronize their electron-nuclear spin oscillations.

In a public post titled "The Future is for Everyone," Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg declares, "We are fortunate to live at an incredible moment in history." For Zuck to posit that "The Future is for Everyone" is at once facile for being so vague it could mean anything – are there people now living who are excluded from the future? – and foolish for its failure to address real issues that actually affect people's lives.

Why SA is holding a royal commission into AI

South Australia will hold a royal commission into artificial intelligence — the first time an inquiry into AI is held at such a high level in Australia. Premier Peter Malinauskas yesterday made the announcement, saying that while AI is "an exciting opportunity to advance the cause of humanity", if left unchecked it also represented a "material risk to the way our society operates and a risk to the future of work if not thought through carefully". "We are at a really important fork in the...

Alaska tour boat rescued stranded skiff instead of Mark Zuckerberg’s mega-yacht

META billionaire Mark Zuckerberg is the owner of a two-year-old mega-yacht called Launchpad that is 387-feet-long, has a steel hull, and four engines capable of generating 5,846 horsepower apiece. But when a small skiff was in trouble off the coast of Alaska last week in the same waters as Zuckerberg’s vessel, it was a 42-year-old tour boat called Wilderness Legacy that steamed to the rescue, according to the U.S. Coast Guard. And when the captain of the tour boat announced Zuckerberg’s...
