The First ‘One Piece’ Season 2 Trailer is Full of Pirate Action

The live-action adaptation of Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece wasn’t just good, it was good in a way that took everyone by surprise. With the numbers to show for it, it’s no wonder Netflix gave it a second season, which is dropping next year. After a wave of casting announcements, Netflix finally pulled back the curtain on the upcoming season during Tokyo’s One Piece Day celebration.

You may have noticed vitamin E on the label of your favorite skin-care products. It's a nutrient that can help protect your skin from UV damage, making it a common ingredient for facial sunscreens. But vitamin E isn't just applied topically -- you also need to get it in your daily diet. Consuming enough vitamin E is crucial because it plays a key role in human development and functioning. The vitamin includes eight compounds, but only one of those -- alpha-tocopherol -- is used in the human body

As the industrial food system pushes ultraprocessed foods to every corner of the globe, new research shows that even seemingly healthy packaged meals may fall short of the benefits offered by whole, minimally processed foods. A fascinating new study published in Nature Medicine dove into the real-world effects ultraprocessed foods have on the human body.

Promising massive upgrades across the board, the company is already working to roll out the new AI to everyone. Some dedicated ChatGPT users wish it would stop, though. After becoming accustomed to the vibe of the GPT-4 models, the switch to GPT-5 doesn't feel right.

Apple taught an LLM to predict tokens up to 5x faster in math and coding tasks

A new research paper from Apple details a technique that speeds up large language model responses, while preserving output quality. Here are the details. The nerdy bits Traditionally, LLMs generate text one token at a time. This is slow because each step depends on all the previous ones to keep the output coherent and accurate. If the model is writing a sentence like “ The cat is black ”, it predicts each token in sequence. After writing “ The cat is ”, it looks at everything so far (plus the

Like it or not, it's safe to assume AI will be a conversation that defines the rest of the 2020s. The recent launch of OpenAI's latest model, GPT-5, comes as ChatGPT ascends to the fifth most-visited website in the world, ahead of Wikipedia, Reddit, TikTok and Amazon. In just three short years, the software has upended education, scrambled the tech labor sector, and ushered in something of a pandemic of chatbot-related mental health problems.

No product launch excites me more than the release of a new Tamagotchi.

How many U.S. states include the letter “R” in their name?
