techcrunch.com Tim De Chant 2025-07-27 00:11:50

Shipping has a pollution problem, but one company has a solution that does more than just eliminate a boat’s carbon dioxide. London-based Seabound has developed a carbon capture system that transforms CO 2 from the engine into limestone, a key ingredient in cement. Fittingly, the company has installed it aboard the UBC Cork, a cement carrier currently sailing through the Mediterranean Sea. When the ship docks in Norway, the limestone created from the voyage will be offloaded and used to make m

Former Top Google Researchers Have Made A New Kind of AI Agent

wired.com Will Knight 2025-07-27 04:02:47

A new kind of artificial intelligence agent, trained to understand how software is built by gorging on a company’s data and learning how this leads to an end product, could be both a more capable software assistant and a small step towards much smarter AI. The new agent, called Asimov, was developed by Reflection, a small but ambitious startup confounded by top AI researchers from Google.

Medieval preacher invoked chivalric hero as a meme in sermon

Medieval poet Geoffrey Chaucer twice made references to an early work featuring a Germanic mythological character named Wade. Only three lines survive, discovered buried in a sermon by a late 19th century scholar. There has been much debate over how to translate those fragments ever since, and whether the long-lost work was a monster-filled epic or a chivalric romance.
