A new grant called 'Faith in AI' is funding the creation of anti-technology spaces, according to the Loyola Maroon. The initiative appears to pair conversations about faith and artificial intelligence with deliberately tech-free environments, giving participants room to step away from devices and reflect on technology's role in spiritual and community life.
- 4Ancient ocean chemistry may guide search for alien lifeβOcean chemistry on ancient Earth could help scientists search for life on alien worlds
New research suggests that the chemistry of Earth's ancient oceans could serve as a template for identifying habitable conditions on other planets. By studying how early marine environments supported the emergence of life, scientists hope to refine which alien worlds are most promising targets in the search for extraterrestrial life, according to reports picked up by Space and Yahoo News.
- 5Google sends AI chip into orbit aboard new satelliteβGoogle launches AI-chip satellite to test performance in space
Google has launched a satellite carrying an AI chip to test how the hardware performs in the space environment. The experiment will help assess whether such chips can withstand radiation and extreme conditions in orbit, a step toward running AI processing directly on satellites rather than relying on ground-based data centres.
