Prioritizing energy intelligence for sustainable growth
As AI drives extraordinary power demands, energy intelligence is rapidly becoming a core business metric. Loudoun County, Virginia, once known for its pastoral scenery and proximity to Washington, DC, has earned a more modern reputation in recent years: The area has the highest concentration of data centers on the planet. Ten years ago, these facilities powered email and e-commerce. Today, thanks to the meteoric rise in demand for AI-infused everything, local utility Dominion Energy is working hard to keep pace with surging power demands. The pressure is so acute that Dulles International Airport is constructing the largest airport solar installation in the country, a highly visible bid to bolster the region's power mix. Data center campuses like Loudoun's are cropping up across the country to accommodate an insatiable appetite for AI.
Controversial geoengineering project sees scientists pump 65,000 litres of chemicals into the ocean to stop global warming

Instead, it was a controversial geoengineering experiment that scientists claim could help to slow down global warming . The oceans already hold around 38,000 billion tonnes of CO2, trapped as dissolved sodium bicarbonate, or baking soda.
The Download: AI's role in the Iran war, and an escalating legal fight
Plus: GPS jamming has become an invisible battle in the Middle East. Much of the spotlight on AI in the Iran conflict has focused on models like Claude helping the US military decide where to strike. But a wave of "vibe-coded" intelligence dashboards--and the ecosystem surrounding them--reflect a new role that AI is playing in wartime: mediating information, often for the worse. These sorts of intelligence tools have much promise. Yet there are real reasons to be suspicious of their data feeds. The AI firm wants to stop the Pentagon from blacklisting it.

The agency has been tracking the Van Allen Probe A and predicts it will reenter the atmosphere at around 7.45pm ET, though the exact timing could vary by up to 24 hours. Because the spacecraft is traveling thousands of miles per hour and the reentry window spans nearly a full day, scientists cannot predict exactly where debris may fall. NASA said most of the spacecraft is expected to burn up as it streaks through the atmosphere, although some components could survive the fall. The risk of anyone being harmed is extremely low, estimated at roughly 1 in 4,200.
Mathematics is undergoing the biggest change in its history
The speed at which artificial intelligence is gaining in mathematical ability has taken many by surprise. Are the days of handwritten mathematics coming to an end? In March 2025, mathematician Daniel Litt made a bet. Despite the march of progress of artificial intelligence in many fields, he believed his subject was safe, wagering with a colleague that there was only a 25 per cent chance an AI could write a mathematical paper at the level of the best human mathematicians by 2030. Only a year later, he thinks he was wrong.
Imagine Losing Your Job to the Mere Possibility of AI
The technology may not be ready to replace workers, but that isn't stopping execs from pushing forward anyway. Late last month, at an event in Washington, D.C., Andrew Yang delivered a bleak message. "I have bad news, America," he told the crowd. The Fuckening is the name that Yang, a former presidential candidate, has given to AI's disembowelment of the workforce. As he sees it, millions of knowledge workers will soon lose their job, personal-bankruptcy rates will spike, and entire downtowns will turn vacant as offices hollow out.

I've taught thousands of people how to use AI – here's what I've learned
I've taught thousands of people how to use AI - here's what I've learned Most people fail with AI because they don't understand what it actually is - if you treat it as a skill, not a shortcut, you'll get the best results Training teams to use AI at work has given me a front-row seat to a new kind of professional divide. Some people hand everything over to the machine and stop thinking. They learn to work with AI critically, treat it like a bright, enthusiastic intern that needs to be managed and supported to do their best work. A willingness to experiment, get things wrong, and figure out what AI is actually good at. Here's what I've learned so far.

CIA faces furious backlash after hidden document with potential cure for cancer is declassified after 60 years

The document, produced in February 1951 and declassified in 2014, summarizes a Soviet scientific paper that examined striking similarities between parasitic worms and cancerous tumors. The report describes how researchers believed both organisms thrived under nearly identical metabolic conditions and accumulated large reserves of glycogen, a form of stored energy.
