The Man Who Proposed Simulation Theory Has a Dire Warning

futurism.com Unknown 2025-10-10 18:22:06

More than 20 years ago, futurist intellectual Nick Bostrom upended the psyches of tech bros the world around when he proposed in a 2003 Philosophical Quarterly paper that we all may be living in a computer simulation. Beloved by such strange bedfellows as Elon Musk, Bill Gates, and Sam Altman, Bostrom has released two other influential missives — 2014's "Superintelligence: Paths, Dangers, Strategies," which detailed the ways AI could become smarter than humans, and 2024's "Deep Utopia: Life and

Just One Lonely Product Still Uses Apple’s Lightning Connector—Can You Guess Which One?

wired.com Verity Burns 2025-10-10 19:23:59

While the world focuses on Apple’s latest slew of new products, we are taking a moment for the last bastion of Apple’s proprietary past—the one remaining product with a Lightning connector that, somehow, Apple still sells. We have previously lamented Apple's drawn-out transition to USB-C. It’s been far from quick and far from straightforward, leaving a mess of dongles and confusion in its wake. It was last year, at its September 2024 “Glowtime” event, that Apple made the move to change that, t

Amazon is planning to use artificial intelligence to recreate destroyed footage from Orson Welles' 1942 film "The Magnificent Ambersons" — but the late directors' estate is calling bull.

Glen Powell Credits ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ Star Chris Pratt with Ushering in a New Kind of Leading Man

Everything’s currently coming up Glen Powell—but as far as he’s concerned, he’s standing on the backs of actors before him. In GQ’s latest cover story, the Running Man actor talked a lot about the stars who helped him breakout, even indirectly. Chief among them, according to Powell at least, is Chris Pratt as Star-Lord in the first Guardians in the Galaxy.
