Without forests, mosquitoes turn to human blood

Popular Science

Deforestation might lead to more deadly mosquito bites. The Atlantic Forest on the eastern coast of South America is home to about 40 different mosquito species. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. If you're someone who mosquitoes just, we feel your pain. Unfortunately, new data indicates the number of mosquito species that feed on humans is increasing--and it's likely to get worse.

'Add blood, forced smile': how Grok's nudification tool went viral The'put her in a bikini' trend rapidly evolved into hundreds of thousands of requests to strip clothes from photos of women, horrifying those targeted Like thousands of women across the world, Evie, a 22-year-old photographer from Lincolnshire, woke up on New Year's Day, looked at her phone and was alarmed to see that fully clothed photographs of her had been digitally manipulated by Elon Musk's AI tool, Grok, to show her in just a bikini. The "put her in a bikini" trend began quietly at the end of last year before exploding at the start of 2026. Within days, hundreds of thousands of requests were being made to the Grok chatbot, asking it to strip the clothes from photographs of women.


Drones used to carry blood in trial aimed at saving lives

BBC News

Specially commissioned drones will be used to fly blood donations as part of a new trial. Currently, blood donations are processed in south Wales then transported by road, a journey that can take hours. The ultimate ambition of the Dragon's Heart project is to fly life-saving blood samples to the scenes of accidents using drones weighing about 55lb (25kg) and 5.5ft wide (1.7m). The pilot, which is due to start in early 2026, was described as significant and exciting by the Welsh Blood Service. A hatch in the top means the blood sits in the body of the drone, helping to control the temperature of the blood and minimise vibrations.


Drone strike in besieged Sudan city kills at least 60 people

BBC News

At least 60 people have been killed in a drone strike at a displacement shelter in el-Fasher, a besieged Sudanese city on the brink of collapse. The resistance committee for el-Fasher, made up of local citizens and activists, said the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) hit Dar al-Arqam camp, located within a university, with two drone strikes and eight artillery shells. Children, women and the elderly were killed in cold blood, and many were completely burned, a statement from the group said. Eyewitnesses described scenes of panic as rescuers pulled bodies from the rubble. Hospitals already struggling under months of siege have been overwhelmed, with doctors treating the wounded on floors and in corridors.



The spooky (and sweet) history of fake blood

Popular Science

English actor Christopher Lee famously played the blood-sucking Dracula in ten different films. Here he plays the infamous vampire in'Dracula A.D. 1972,' directed by Alan Gibson. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. This spooky season, as you binge horror flicks, peep the Halloween décor, and peruse potential costumes, pay attention to the fake blood and you'll notice something odd: It all looks wildly different . Some of it's thin and watery, and some is viscous and goopy.

How healthy am I? My immunome knows the score.

MIT Technology Review

How healthy am I? My immunome knows the score. Groundbreaking new tests reveal patterns in our immune systems that can signal underlying disease and tell us how well we might recover from our next cold. I got my results in a text message. It's not often you get a text about the robustness of your immune system, but that's what popped up on my phone last spring. Sent by John Tsang, an immunologist at Yale, the text came after his lab had put my blood through a mind-boggling array of newfangled tests. The result--think of it as a full-body, high-resolution CT scan of my immune system--would reveal more about the state of my health than any test I had ever taken. And it could potentially tell me far more than I wanted to know. "David," the text read, "you are the red dot." Tsang was referring to an image he had attached to the text that showed a graph with a scattering of black dots representing other people whose immune systems had been evaluated--and a lone red one.


Lisa Su Runs AMD--and Is Out for Nvidia's Blood

WIRED

While everyone else has been talking about Nvidia's GPUs, Lisa Su has discreetly turned AMD into a chipmaking phenom. Su, the leader of AMD, moves fast these days, though I suspect that's always been the case. Her company's chips underpin the artificial intelligence that's changing the world at breakneck speeds. To hear Su and literally everyone else in semiconductors talk about it, the US is in an AI with China--and the rules keep changing . The Trump administration has once again shifted its stance on what kind of chips can and can't be shipped to China, with the latest decree being that the US will take a 15 percent cut of AMD and Nvidia chip sales to China. Meanwhile, on the home front, Su has claimed that AMD's newest AI chips can outperform Nvidia's--part of her strategy to keep eroding Nvidia's dominance in the market. So, yeah: Be ready to keep up. Under Lisa Su, the stalwart American semiconductor company has reasserted itself as a force in the age of AI. "Reasserted" doesn't do it justice: Su took a struggling AMD and executed a 10-year turnaround that has been, as one economist put it, nothing short of remarkable. Since 2014, when Su took over as CEO, AMD's market cap has risen from around $2 billion to nearly $300 billion. Aside from her well-known bona fides, Su herself--what drives her, what inspires her, what irritates her, where her politics lie--is less known. This is what I was hoping to learn when I visited AMD's offices and labs in the hills of Austin, Texas, on a day in late June when the wind seemed to do little more than push heat around. Our conversation kicked off with China, which accounts for nearly a quarter of AMD's business. Su now travels frequently to Washington, DC, to grease the wheels. "We've come to realize that export controls are a bit of a fact of life," she told me, "just given how critical the chips that we make are." In other words, it's precisely because AMD's chips are so darn important--to national security, to national economies--that they're now at the heart of modern statecraft.
