Spoiler alert: Do not read if you haven't watched the current season of "The Walking Dead." Steven Yeun has gone from "The Walking Dead" to an animated life. The actor, who was horribly dispatched in the seventh-season opener of the AMC drama, can currently be seen in "Voltron: Legendary Defender," flying a red metallic lion into space as he helps save the universe. Yeun had already taken on the role of the mysterious Keith, the orphaned paladin (pilot) of the red lion, in Netflix's reboot of the '80s cartoon series, aware of the brutal end that was going to befall Glenn Rhee, his "Walking Dead" character. "It's all a little bittersweet," says Yeun. "I feel great, though. It feels good to have completed something."

It's true: Some people will be watching the Super Bowl for the actual game on an actual TV. You can join them even if you don't have a cable subscription or a good signal with an antenna.

Artificial intelligence (AI) might seem like the realm of science fiction, but you might be surprised to find out that you're already using it. AI has a huge effect on your life, whether you're aware of it or not, and its influence is likely to grow in the coming years. Here are 10 examples of artificial intelligence that you're already using every day. Siri, Google Now, and Cortana are all intelligent digital personal assistants on various platforms (iOS, Android, and Windows Mobile). In short, they help find useful information when you ask for it using your voice; you can say "Where's the nearest Chinese restaurant?", "What's on my schedule today?", "Remind me to call Jerry at eight o'clock," and the assistant will respond by finding information, relaying information from your phone, or sending commands to other apps.

"Face recognition is an important social skill, but not all of us are equally good at it," says Beijing Normal University cognitive psychologist Jia Liu. A new study by Liu and colleagues Ruosi Wang, Jingguang Li, Huizhen Fang, and Moqian Tian provides the first experimental evidence that the inequality of abilities is rooted in the unique way in which the mind perceives faces. "Individuals who process faces more holistically"--that is, as an integrated whole--"are better at face recognition," says Liu. The findings will appear in an upcoming issue of Psychological Science, a journal published by the Association for Psychological Science. In daily life, we recognize faces both holistically and also "analytically"--that is, picking out individual parts, such as eyes or nose.

Imagine Steve Jobs walking out onto the stage in January of 2007, holding up the never-before-seen iPhone, and saying, "It's a phone!" Of course, he didn't do that. Instead, Jobs boasted of launching three new products at once: a wide-screen iPod with touch controls, a mobile phone, and an Internet communications device. Since then, the iPhone has become so much more. It's early days, so I won't compare the potential of the voice-controlled device to the iPhone. But the Echo, backed by an artificial intelligence platform named Alexa, is much more than just another Bluetooth speaker.

Between cat videos and online banking, the web runs the gamut of wasteful and wonderful when it comes to getting things done. And if you were to weigh the Internet's time wasters against its time-saving tools, it would be like an elephant sitting across a fulcrum from a field mouse. But through all the advances that have come with cloud computing, the Internet is quickly turning into a giant productivity machine. Shopping is great when you're soaking in some retail therapy, but when you're doing it because you have to, it can feel like a major chore. Mezi, a free iOS app, works like a personal assistant that you can text message. Just tell the service what you want--airfare, clothing, dinner reservations, personal electronics--and Mezi's agents scour the web for the best deals, even using coupons if possible to get you a good deal.

Human attitudes of objection, protest, and rebellion have undeniable potential to bring about social benefits, from social justice to healthy balance in relationships. At times, they can even be argued to be ethically obligatory. Conversely, AI rebellion is largely seen as a dangerous, destructive prospect. With the increase of interest in collaborative human/AI environments in which synthetic agents play social roles or, at least, exhibit behavior with social and ethical implications, we believe that AI rebellion could have benefits similar to those of its counterpart in humans. We introduce a framework meant to help categorize and design Rebel Agents, discuss their social and ethical implications, and assess their potential benefits and the risks they may pose. We also present AI rebellion scenarios in two considerably different contexts (military unmanned vehicles and computational social creativity) that exemplify components of the framework.

The United States Geological Society captured gorgeous images of the'lava faucet' currently spewing out of Hawaii's Kilauea volcano. It's been erupting since 1983, but on New Year's day, the lava caused a rock structure to collapse, exposing the flowing lava. Researchers are now concerned that the surrounding cliff might collapse as well, making the area even more dangerous than it already is.

The sixth and final chapter in the "Resident Evil" franchise has just come out in theatres, and you may as well start there. The films are best enjoyed out of sequence, with no prior knowledge of the plot. Who is this woman with the pair of shotguns and the tight pants? What's this undead beast that wants to eat her face? When did Washington, D.C., get turned to rubble?
