Researchers in Europe have discovered that as few as five electrons in a semiconductor can exhibit collective behavior, forming a “Coulomb liquid.” This breakthrough extends the study of correlated systems to electron plasmas and could lead to the study of other exotic phases of matter. The team created a Y-shaped junction and measured the behavior…
MEXC Ventures, the investment arm of the global cryptocurrency exchange MEXC, has partnered with Octaloop to launch the India Blockchain Tour (IBT) 2025, a six-month Web3 innovation roadshow spanning eight cities. The tour aims to accelerate the growth of India’s Web3 ecosystem by connecting local innovators with the global Web3 community and fostering long-term collaboration….
As generative AI becomes increasingly ubiquitous, concerns are growing about its environmental impact. Large language models (LLMs) are particularly energy-hungry, with some estimates suggesting they produce up to 50 times more CO₂ emissions than others. Experts warn that the carbon cost of training models, manufacturing and maintaining hardware, and the scale of AI’s adoption will…
A federal proposal to ban states and local governments from regulating AI for five years is gaining momentum in the US Senate. The proposal, backed by prominent tech figures, aims to prevent a “patchwork” of AI regulations among states, which they argue would stifle American innovation. However, critics, including Democrats, labor groups, and AI safety…
Researchers at Leiden University have made a groundbreaking discovery, using X-rays to detect a cosmic filament that connects clusters of galaxies. This finding supports the idea that much of the universe’s normal matter resides in these structures, which were previously thought to be elusive and hidden deep within intergalactic space. The study strengthens the Standard…

Researchers have developed a groundbreaking vision system for robots that occupies less storage space than a single photo on a phone and uses only 10% of the energy required by conventional location systems. This innovative system, called LENS, has the potential to revolutionize space and undersea exploration, as well as drone and microrobot applications. The…
Scientists at Northwestern University and the University of Wisconsin-Madison have made a groundbreaking discovery in the field of optics. They found that a centrosymmetric crystal, which was previously thought to be incapable of absorbing circularly polarized light differently, exhibits this property. This finding has the potential to revolutionize the development of new technologies that control…
Apple’s “F1” movie has become the company’s first box office hit, earning $144 million in global ticket sales and surpassing “Napoleon” as Apple’s highest-grossing film. This success comes after a string of underperforming films, including the flop “Argylle.” The movie’s success is attributed to its realistic cinematography and a familiar narrative, as well as the…
Researchers at the University of Oxford and Portugal have developed a computational paradigm that can accurately simulate interactions between powerful laser beams and quantum fluctuations in a vacuum. This breakthrough could lead to new insights into the quantum nature of the vacuum and has the potential to revolutionize our understanding of the fundamental laws of…
