Japan unveils $2.3 trillion investment plan for next 14 years Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi aims to put her stamp on Japan's growth strategy as technological change and geopolitical tensions reshape economic priorities. Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has unveiled a long-term vision for Japan's economic development featuring massive investment in artificial intelligence and semiconductors as well as other key sectors including defense, space and shipbuilding. The plan calls for investing more than ¥370 trillion ($2.3 trillion) in the 14-year period ending in March 2041, with ¥101.6 trillion earmarked for artificial intelligence and chips spending alone, according to documents released Wednesday after a policy advisory panel's meeting. In introducing the plan, Takaichi said she aims to create a "strong and prosperous investment framework." The blueprint calls for a combination of public and private investment to reach the target amounts, with the government seen contributing a little less than half if inflation stays in line with expectations.

Global society makes billions of images and uploads hundreds of thousands of hours of video on the internet every day. The problem is, some of this content is misleading or downright wrong. And when it's in visual form, it can be particularly convincing . Take the Met Gala that happened earlier this month in New York. While photographers snapped photos of Rhianna, Beyoncé and Nicole Kidman as they strutted their stuff, others saw "photos" of celebrities, such as Rosalía, Lady Gaga and Jacob Elordi, who were actually elsewhere (the images in the below Instagram carousel are AI generated).

State-space models provide a powerful framework for describing the evolution of hidden states in dynamical systems [3], [4], [1]. Conventionally, state-space models assume Gaussian measurement and state noise, owing to their tractability and well-characterized statistical properties. However, many real-world phenomena are subject to perturbations that deviate from the conventional Gaussian noise assumption. In radio interferometry, for instance, observational data are frequently corrupted by non-Gaussian noise sources such as radio-frequency interference (RFI) [5], [2], which originates from man-made signals and introduces significant distortions into astronomical measurements [6], [30]. Such interference produces sporadic high-power spikes in the measured visibilities, leading to heavy-tailed statistics. Many radio-interferometric reconstruction methods assume Gaussian additive noise [7], [31], [33], [35], an approximation that can lead to inaccurate reconstructions when the heavy-tailed nature of real-world measurement noise is not properly accounted for. In the realm of state-space modeling, addressing non-Gaussian noise has led to the development of various methodological approaches, notably particle filtering and non-conventional Kalman filters. Particle filters [8], or Sequential Monte Carlo methods, are designed to handle non-linear and non-Gaussian state-space models by representing the posterior distribution with a set of weighted samples [9], [10], [32].

Russia’s “Project 2026” wasn’t just to spread misinformation on social media — its main goal to create an alternative information ecosystem.

The world's oldest football has travelled from Stirling to Florida to make an appearance at Scotland's crunch World Cup match against Brazil. The ball, which is believed to date from between 1540 and 1570 was discovered in the 1970s, lodged in the rafters behind the Queen's Chamber at Stirling Castle. It will be displayed at the Coral Gables Museum in Florida until Saturday as well as being shown at the Scotland match on Wednesday . The ball has been loaned to the museum by Stirling Smith Art Gallery and Museum, where it is the prize exhibit in a collection of more than 40,000 items. The ball, which is recognised by Guinness World Records as the world's oldest, external, is roughly the size of a small melon.

Temperatures may be soaring, but there's an unseasonable chill on screens right now--at least when it comes to some of the movie offerings hitting streaming services this month. Director Yorgos Lanthimos delivers a twisted take on in on Netflix, while Shudder digs up painful family secrets and adds a side of demonic possession in If you fancy some summer scares that are a bit more Halloween-grade, Netflix also has a mesmerizing tour of a world of monsters and living nightmares, brought to life in stunning stop-motion. There are also plenty of retro delights surfacing on streamers this month that are more than worth a rewatch. Hulu reinstalls Spielberg's, which lands very differently in 2026; Criterion Channel is declassifying Sean Connery's first outings as 007, with, and coming to the specialist platform; and Prime Video brings all three films back to the future (sorry). Here are WIRED's picks of the best movies to watch right now.
