Earlier this month, attorney general Pam Bondi released what the Justice Department referred to as the "full raw" surveillance footage from outside Epstein's cell — a still frame of which is shown above — documenting nearly 11 hours of the outside of the disgraced financier's

Through the looking glass: When AI image generators first emerged, misinformation immediately became a major concern. Although repeated exposure to AI-generated imagery can build some resistance, a recent Microsoft study suggests that certain types of real and fake images can still deceive almost anyone. The study found that humans can accurately distinguish real photos from AI-generated ones about 63% of the time. In contrast, Microsoft's in-development AI detection tool reportedly achieves a

Techno-noir and cyberpunk have flourished in science fiction for decades, especially in movies. Films combining the dark vibes and jaded perspective of film noir, with futuristic dystopian settings that lean into a world where technology has blurred the lines between humanity and machines. In the 90s, The Matrix was a breakout hit for the genre, but there were also options that flew under the radar on release.

The U.S. Could Lose a Crucial Futuristic Telescope to Spain if Trump’s Budget Passes

Spain has offered to spend up to €400 million ($471 million) to host the Thirty Meter Telescope, an enormous observatory project facing imminent cancellation due to U.S. budget constraints. If Spain strikes a deal, the TMT would be built on La Palma in the Canary Islands rather than on Mauna Kea, a mountain in Hawaii. In 2016, La Palma became the backup location for the observatory in case the primary site in Hawaii didn’t work out as an option, according to the TMT International Observatory. N
