History has been made: The rapid-fire attempt to rewrite this child’s DNA marks the first time gene editing has been tailored to treat a single individual, according to a report published in the New England Journal of Medicine. Imagine a future where no rare disease patients

Morgan Stanley has estimated that around 150K people in the USA who suffer from critical upper-limb impairments could be early candidates for brain computer-interface devices. It anticipates that the first commercial approval will come in 2030. wsj.com/tech/apple-bra…

This could lock the world's data down for the long haul—if researchers can make it practical. This year, the world’s storage needs will reach 175 zettabytes—the equivalent of over a trillion 4K movies. Traditional hard drives are struggling to keep up singularityhub.com/2025/05/19/thi…

Super-vision sounds intriguing—the thought of a needle in the eye less so. The new study made the technology wearable in the form of contact lenses—but with an upgrade. singularityhub.com/2025/05/22/the…

Is this the first major Google algorithm update for the AI era? Because Google owns almost the entire search market, changes in its algorithm can move the Internet itself. arstechnica.com/google/2025/05…

A new single gene-therapy injection made long-lasting edits INSIDE the bodies of mice (rather than extraction/insertion), treating them for three types of blood-related genetic diseases. The catch? There's a short window where this works. singularityhub.com/2025/05/30/new…

Every visual you’re about to see was generated with AI. Most of the audio too. Some of it’s mind-blowing, some still obviously fake. But was it easy? No. Here's what it took ⬇️ wsj.com/tech/ai/ai-fil…

If the adoption of AI feels different from any tech revolution you may have experienced before— mobile, social, cloud computing — it actually is. But what's the one area where AI hasn’t outpaced every other tech revolution? techcrunch.com/2025/05/30/its…

We know how to fix climate change—but we don’t do it. Hassabis believes AGI will bring a golden era of abundance, allowing humanity to solve issues like a non-zero-sum game. Will leveling up AI court catastrophic perils, or will AGI itself be the solution?

Tracking the 23andMe news? You're going to want to read this. A vacuum grabs airborne DNA, capturing genetic landscapes from wildlife to humans. It can monitor biodiversity, viruses, and illicit drugs, but it can also detect the genetic heritage of people passing by.

Does gravitational collapse ALWAYS end in a singularity? A new model more than fixes technical problems with standard cosmology. It could shed light on the origin of supermassive black holes, the nature of dark matter, or the hierarchical formation and evolution of galaxies.

Fervo’s approach, which uses technologies developed for the oil and gas industry, could help push geothermal’s share of total US electricity supply from its current 0.4 percent to 10 percent or greater. singularityhub.com/2025/06/12/geo…

Experiments show that today’s “reasoning” AIs—hailed as the next step toward autonomous AI agents and, ultimately, superhuman intelligence—are in some cases worse at solving problems than the plain-vanilla AI chatbots that preceded them. wsj.com/tech/ai/artifi…
