Brendan Carr Isn't Going to Stop Until Someone Makes Him

WIRED

In the wake of Jimmy Kimmel's suspension, experts say the FCC commissioner's conduct is flatly unconstitutional. They also expect him to keep going. Brendan Carr speaks in Washington, DC, on September 9, 2025. In what has become an all-too-regular display from Brendan Carr, the Federal Communications Commission chairman used a podcast appearance Wednesday to flex his regulatory power. In this instance, he threatened action against broadcasters that refused to punish Jimmy Kimmel for remarks he made on his ABC show Monday night.


Move Aside, Chatbots: AI Humanoids Are Here

WIRED

Today on, we talk about why the AI industry is investing in the development of humanoid robots, and what that means for us non-robots. This week, WIRED learned that OpenAI is ramping up its efforts in robotics--specifically, by hiring researchers who work on AI systems for humanoid robots. Humanoids, robots built to resemble us and perform daily tasks, were famous for their clumsiness just a few years ago. Senior writer Will Knight tells us about how that's rapidly changing on today's episode cohosted by Michael Calore and senior correspondent Kylie Robison. Write to us at uncannyvalley@wired.com . You can always listen to this week's podcast through the audio player on this page, but if you want to subscribe for free to get every episode, here's how: If you're on an iPhone or iPad, open the app called Podcasts, or just tap this link . My Lord and Savior Lauren Goode, I'm so happy to fill in for her, but I miss her dearly. Also on the show this week, we have Will Knight, our AI expert at WIRED. Welcome back to the show, Will. Given the topic of today's episode, I want to ask you both. Do you have a favorite robot movie? Mine is The Iron Giant. I was just looking up when that came out because I swear I watched it on VHS as a kid. Yeah, I loved that movie. It's got a very sad ending. The robot is no longer.


"A Big Bold Beautiful Journey" Is None of Those Things

The New Yorker

"A Big Bold Beautiful Journey" Is None of Those Things Kogonada's fantasy film, starring Colin Farrell and Margot Robbie, suggests that a great directorial talent is losing his way. In Kogonada's new film, Colin Farrell and Margot Robbie try gamely to overcome the thinness with which their characters have been imagined. If movies were given scores as figure skaters are, fantasy would start with a high rating for technical difficulty. The landings of the genre are hard to stick, because fantasy, by definition, isn't rooted in experience. No one has lived on a distant planet, in the far future, or any place where dragons or wizards rule--so, kudos to anyone who can make such realms feel truly lived in.


Massive Attack remove music from Spotify to protest against CEO Daniel Ek's investment in AI military

The Guardian

Massive Attack remove music from Spotify to protest against CEO Daniel Ek's investment in AI military The band cited a'moral and ethical burden' placed on artists by revenue from their work ultimately funding lethal technologies Massive Attack have become the latest act - and first major-label one - to pull their catalogue from Spotify in protest at founder Daniel Ek investing €600m (£520m) in the military AI company Helsing. In June, Ek's venture capital firm Prima Materia led the defence tech firm's latest funding round. Helsing's software uses AI technology to analyse sensor and weapons system data from battlefields to inform real-time military decisions. It also makes its own military drone, the HX-2. Ek is also chairman of Helsing.


Eavesdropping on grunting groupers reveals how the fish communicate

Popular Science

Scientists listened to these Caribbean fish for over 2,000 hours. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. The red hind grouper () is big on grunting. After analyzing over 2,000 hours of ocean acoustic recordings gathered over 12 years, marine biologists say that groupers convey specific messages to one another about courtship and territory with their grunts. And with the help of an advanced machine-learning tool, researchers now believe the observational approach detailed in a study published in the can help other scientists to better monitor fish populations, as well as improve ongoing conservation efforts for threatened species.

Betty Richards, 84, bought a carton of apple and mango juice from the Armthorpe branch of Morrisons as a treat for her best friend of twenty years, Julie Bircumshaw, also 84. The BBC reports that Ms Bircumshaw noticed some'bits of black' around the opening of the 1L carton, but after tasting the juice, thought it was fine to drink. When Ms Richards popped over to see her friend at home in Doncaster a week later, she was told about the discolouration around the nozzle. She was concerned, and decided to take a closer look at the £1.35 carton--which was almost empty.


Japanese spacecraft eyes tricky asteroid landing

Popular Science

Hyabusa2 is already 105.5 million miles on its journey, but new data indicates trouble. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Japan's Hyabusa2 space probe is currently about 105.5 million miles away, en route to its second asteroid rendezvous . However, revised data collected from a global network of observatories now indicates that the space rock designated as 1998 KY26 will look and behave far differently than astronomers previously theorized--and it may prove disastrous for the tiny explorer. In 2010, the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) made history when its Hayabusa probe became the first spacecraft to not only land on and launch from an asteroid (Itokawa), but successfully return to Earth with samples .
