Drones used to carry blood in trial aimed at saving lives

BBC News

Specially commissioned drones will be used to fly blood donations as part of a new trial. Currently, blood donations are processed in south Wales then transported by road, a journey that can take hours. The ultimate ambition of the Dragon's Heart project is to fly life-saving blood samples to the scenes of accidents using drones weighing about 55lb (25kg) and 5.5ft wide (1.7m). The pilot, which is due to start in early 2026, was described as significant and exciting by the Welsh Blood Service. A hatch in the top means the blood sits in the body of the drone, helping to control the temperature of the blood and minimise vibrations.


Disinformation Floods Social Media After Nicolรกs Maduro's Capture

WIRED

From seemingly AI-generated videos to repurposed old footage, TikTok, Instagram, and X did little to stop the onslaught of misleading posts in the wake of the US invasion of Venezuela. A crowd outside of Miami reacts to the news of the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolรกs Maduro on January 3, 2026. Within minutes of Donald Trump announcing in the early hours of Saturday morning that US troops had captured Venezuelan president Nicolรกs Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, disinformation about the operation flooded social media. Some people shared old videos across social platforms, falsely claiming that they showed the attacks on the Venezuelan capital Caracas. On TikTok, Instagram, and X, people shared AI-generated images and videos that claimed to show US Drug Enforcement Administration agents and various law enforcement personnel arresting Maduro.


The US Invaded Venezuela and Captured Nicolรกs Maduro. ChatGPT Disagrees

WIRED

Some AI chatbots have a surprisingly good handle on breaking news. Supporters of Nicolรกs Maduro and the late Hugo Chรกvez hold posters with their images after explosions and low-flying aircraft were heard on January 3, 2026, in Caracas, Venezuela. At around 2 am local time in Caracas, Venezuela, US helicopters flew overhead while explosions resounded below. A few hours later, US president Donald Trump posted on his Truth Social platform that Venezuelan president Nicolรกs Maduro and his wife had been "captured and flown out of the Country." US attorney general Pam Bondi followed with a post on X that Maduro and his wife had been indicted in the Southern District of New York and would "soon face the full wrath of American justice on American soil in American courts."


Wellbeing 2026: Recovery, JOMO and brain boosting supplements

BBC News

Wellbeing has become such a priceless (or in many cases pricey) endeavour that we can't seem to get enough of it. Last year, we were mainlining magnesium, consuming creatine - a muscle boosting supplement that became mainstream, and we turned to AI chatbots for help with anything from a personalised training regime to a daily meal plan. What is the multi-trillion pound industry focussing on in 2026? Several experts give us their thoughts on what's on the wellbeing agenda. If 2025 was about smashing targets at the gym, tracking runs to the second and lifting heavier and heavier weights, then this year is all about recovery.


Jessie Buckley 'overwhelmed' to be starring in Oscar-tipped Hamnet

BBC News

Jessie Buckley'overwhelmed' to be starring in Oscar-tipped Hamnet The Oscar-tipped Hamnet, starring Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal, is a film that shows the full range of human emotions, from elation to despair. It begins with a young William Shakespeare falling in love with Agnes (the other name by which the playwright's wife, historically referred to as Anne Hathaway, was known), and goes on to explore their immense grief after tragedy strikes their young family. But while it explores the sad origins of one of Shakespeare's greatest plays, Hamlet, it never portrays Agnes as just the playwright's wife - she is at the heart of the film. She was the full story of what I understand a woman to be, Buckley tells BBC News. And their capacity as women, and as mothers, and as lovers, and as people who have a language unto their own beside gigantic men of literature like Shakespeare.


Tesla loses place as world's top electric vehicle seller to China's BYD

Al Jazeera

Tesla loses place as world's top electric vehicle seller to China's BYD Tesla has lost its place as the top global seller of electric vehicles to Chinese company BYD, capping a year defined by outrage over CEO Elon Musk's political manoeuvring and the end of United States tax breaks for customers. The company revealed on Friday that it had sold 1.64 million vehicles in 2025, compared with BYD's 2.26 million vehicles. The sales represented a 9 percent decline for Tesla from a year earlier. However, the market has become increasingly crowded with competitors, with China's electric vehicle market bounding ahead. Musk's embrace of US President Donald Trump in 2024 and subsequent spearheading of a controversial "government efficiency" panel (DOGE) behind widespread layoffs of federal workers has also proved polarising.


AI teachers and cybernetics - what could the world look like in 2050?

BBC News

AI teachers and cybernetics - what could the world look like in 2050? The last 25 years has seen some mind-bending technological changes.

Fast forward two and a half decades, and innovations in AI, robotics and much else besides are emerging at an incredible rate. So we decided to ask experts what the next 25 years could bring.
