Using non-invasive techniques, @MetaAI built AI that can guess what you're hearing. "Being able to decode brainwaves could help patients who have lost the ability to speak... and... provide novel ways for humans to interact with computers." singularityhub.com/2022/09/1…

A researcher holds a basketball covered with Vantablack. Vantablack is the world's darkest commercial material made of carbon nanotubes that absorbs 99.965% of the visible spectrum. It looks interesting when in the sky.
