Guardian found OpenAI's platform cited Grokipedia on topics including Iran and Holocaust deniers The latest model of ChatGPT has begun to cite Elon Musk's Grokipedia as a source on a wide range of queries, including on Iranian conglomerates and Holocaust deniers, raising concerns about misinformation on the platform. In tests done by the Guardian, GPT-5.2 cited Grokipedia nine times in response to more than a dozen different questions. These included queries on political structures in Iran, such as salaries of the Basij paramilitary force and the ownership of the Mostazafan Foundation, and questions on the biography of Sir Richard Evans, a British historian and expert witness against Holocaust denier David Irving in his libel trial.

West Midlands Police has admitted it overstated the evidence used to make the decision to ban Israeli fans from a match in Birmingham. Craig Guildford, its former chief constable, retired earlier this month after damning criticism of the ban on Maccabi Tel Aviv fans from the Europa League match against Aston Villa, last November. In newly released documents, the force also said we did not engage early enough with the local Jewish community, and indicated there was now a ban on AI use after its evidence included a match that did not take place. Furthermore, it said its operations would have lasted four days, involved multiple forces, and cost more than £5m, if 2,500 away fans had attended. The documents were released ahead of a public meeting on Tuesday, at which Police and Crime Commissioner for the West Midlands, Simon Foster, will discuss at his accountability and governance board, the decision to ban the Maccabi fans.

'Nature seems to have already solved the problem.' Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. To help figure out what makes stingrays such unique and unusual swimmers, a team of mechanical engineers at the University of California, Riverside (UCR) created a wavy robotic fin. After submerging the robot in underwater tunnels designed to mimic swimming near the sea floor, their tests indicate that different types of ray species may have evolved alternative swimming techniques that best suit their setting. Specifically, the findings suggest that some ray species swimming near the seafloor adjust the way their fins move and tilt to counter a downward force that would otherwise pull them toward the ground. It turns out that stingrays gracefully gliding along waves near seabeds aren't doing it to look cool.

Science Space Deep Space Halley's comet may need a new, medieval name Astronomers suggest the honor should go to an 11th century monk known for a disastrous flying attempt. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. One of most recognizable comets in astronomy may require rebranding. But even if everyone continues to call the famed space rock Halley's comet, some researchers say an eccentric 11th century monk deserves at least credit. According to a review of historical materials including the famous Bayeux tapestry, a team from Leiden University in the Netherlands believes it makes more sense to name the icy space rock in honor of Aethelmaer of Malmesbury --a member of the Order of Saint Benedict who also lived with an ill-fated fascination with flying.

US Customs and Border Protection is paying General Dynamics to create prototype "quantum sensors," to be used with an AI database to detect fentanyl and other narcotics. United States Customs and Border Protection is paying General Dynamics to create a prototype of "quantum sensors" alongside a "database with artificial intelligence " designed "to detect illicit objects and substances (such as fentanyl) in vehicles, containers, and other devices," according to a contract justification published in a federal register last week. "This database and sensor project will integrate advanced quantum and classical sensing technologies with Artificial Intelligence and ultimately deploy proven concepts and end products anywhere in the CBP environment," the justification document reads. "Under this requirement, CBP will take additional steps to enhance its ability to detect, and thus, significantly reduce the harms of illicit contraband entering the United States of America, thus bolstering national security." The document redacts the name of the company developing the prototype; however, contract details included in the federal register entry reveal that the justification is for a $2.4 million General Dynamics contract that has been public since December 2025.

Age Verification Is Reaching a Global Tipping Point. Is TikTok's Strategy a Good Compromise? TikTok's new age-detection tech seems like a better solution than automatically banning youth accounts. But experts say it still requires social platforms to surveil users more closely. Governments worldwide are moving to limit children's access to social media as lawmakers question whether platforms are capable of enforcing their own minimum age requirements.
