AI Is Crushing the Early Career Job Market, Stanford Study Finds

If you suspected that AI is taking jobs away from young workers, there is now data to back this up. Three economists at Stanford University’s Digital Economy Lab —professor Erik Brynjolfsson, research scientist Ruyu Chen, and postdoctoral fellow Bharat Chandar— published a paper on Tuesday that found early-career workers aged 22 to 25 in the most AI-exposed jobs “have experienced a 13 percent relative decline in employment.” “In contrast, employment for workers in less exposed fields and more

Verily is closing its medical device program as Alphabet shifts more resources to AI

In Brief Alphabet’s life sciences arm Verily laid off staff and eliminated its entire devices program Monday. CEO Stephen Gillett announced the “difficult decision” to wind down the program in a staff memo, according to Business Insider. “Over the years, Verily has built a legacy in developing world-class, innovative medical devices,” Gillett wrote, noting that the “path forward requires difficult decisions” as Verily refocuses on AI and data infrastructure. The move continues Alphabet’s agg

A ‘Knight Rider’ Movie Is in the Works From the Creators of ‘Cobra Kai’

The Netflix hit Cobra Kai was the perfect balance of 1980s nostalgia and modern sensibilities. Now, the team behind that show has been tapped to do the same for another popular brand from the decade: Knight Rider. The Hollywood Reporter says that Jon Hurwitz, Hayden Schlossberg, and Josh Heald are in early talks to make a movie based on the hit show, which starred David Hasselhoff as a detective who gets paired with an artificially intelligent car called KITT (which stood for Knight Industries

An Astonishing Number of Men Are Dying Because They Refuse to Go to the Doctor

Image by Getty / Futurism Treatments Men appear to be dying disproportionately from preventable diseases and conditions way more than women, and in many cases it's their own damn fault: because they're refusing to go to the doctor until it's too late. In interviews with the New York Times, doctors and public health experts expressed concerns with the state of men's preventative care, which they say many chaps tend to ignore — to their own peril. Breaking this issue down between men and women

Verizon's Bringing Back That Landline Feeling With Its New Family Plan Feature

When we talk about a cellular "family plan," we mean a bundle of several individual phone lines for each person in a typical household. The plan usually includes features like high-speed data or a streaming video service that each family member can share. Now, Verizon has updated an add-on for its phone plans that's meant to bring the family closer together. The Verizon Family Plus perk, which offers features such as location check-ins and content filters, now includes Family Line, where up to

Apple announces launch event on Sept. 9, iPhone 17 expected

Apple on Tuesday sent invites to the media and analysts for a launch event at its campus on September 9 at 10 A.M pacific time. The tagline on the invite is: "Awe dropping." Apple is expected to release new iPhones, as it usually does in September. This year's model would be the iPhone 17. It also often announces new Apple Watch models in September. While Apple's launch events used to be held live, with executives demonstrating features on stage, since 2020 they have been pre-recorded videos.

The Best Electrolyte Powders and Drinks, According to Experts

Always check with your primary care doctor about which electrolytes are right for you since some health conditions and medications can affect your mineral retention. Due to a variety of bodily changes and needs during pregnancy, it's helpful to keep track of electrolyte levels. Sugar is necessary for energy if you're working out vigorously. There are also sugar-free options for less active people. If you're physically active for longer than an hour, you will need both electrolytes and carbohy

'Ten Martini' Proof Uses Number Theory to Explain Quantum Fractals

But in some ways, the proof was a bit unsatisfying. Jitomirskaya and Avila had used a method that only applied to certain irrational values of alpha. By combining it with an intermediate proof that came before it, they could say the problem was solved. But this combined proof wasn’t elegant. It was a patchwork quilt, each square stitched out of distinct arguments. Moreover, the proofs only settled the conjecture as it was originally stated, which involved making simplifying assumptions about th

Flamingoes Can Slow Down Aging—But Only If They Embrace This Lifestyle

Despite the uniform appearance of pink flamingo flocks, individuals live very different lifestyles. In the Camargue region of France, some stay put for their entire lives while others migrate along the Mediterranean coast. Now, scientists believe these two groups differ in how they age, too. New research published Monday, August 25, in the journal PNAS found that migratory flamingoes, who leave the Camargue annually to spend the winter in Italy, Spain, or North Africa, age slower than non-migra

A Year Later and I'm Still Obsessed With Daily Harvest's $5 Premade Pasta Meals

I have mixed feelings about Daily Harvest smoothies. They're tasty but expensive, and some are high in sugar. And making smoothies from scratch doesn't take much time if you have the right ingredients on hand. For me, the real star of this 100% plant-based and gluten-free meal service is its premade pastas. They're healthy, filling, easy to prepare -- heat them in a skillet and the frozen cubes of sauce bring the dish together -- and cost under $11 per bag, each containing two full servings. As

'The Summer I Turned Pretty' Isn't Over Yet: Season 3 Schedule and How to Watch

It's not summer without you. Jenny Han's The Summer I Turned Pretty is back for its third and final season, and it's been a roller coaster of a season so far. But don't fret -- we're not finished with Belly, Conrad and Jeremiah yet. The show is based on the book trilogy of the same name by Jenny Han, who has been executive producing the TV series. Isabel "Belly" Conklin (Lola Tung) starts the third season as an older, more mature college student. She's eased into her relationship with Jeremiah

The days of custom Android ROMs are numbered, and Google is to blame

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority Android used to be synonymous with freedom. If you didn’t like your phone’s interface or bloatware, you could simply install a custom ROM — the colloquial term for a forked version of the Android operating system. But that golden era is quickly disappearing, as yet another major Android fork has run into troubles. CalyxOS, a major privacy-focused Android distribution, announced a sudden freeze on future releases earlier this month. While the project isn’t di

The oldest unopened bottle of wine in the world

Image by Immanuel Giel, via Wiki­me­dia Com­mons It’s an old TV and movie trope: the man of wealth and taste, often but not always a supervil­lain, offers his dis­tin­guished guest a bot­tle of wine, his finest, an ancient vin­tage from one of the most ven­er­a­ble vine­yards. We might fol­low the motif back at least to Edgar Allan Poe, whose “Cask of Amon­til­la­do” puts an espe­cial­ly devi­ous spin on the trea­sured bottle’s sin­is­ter con­no­ta­tions. If our suave and pos­si­bly dead­ly ho

Scientists are building cyborg jellyfish to explore ocean depths

Climate change is warming ocean waters, making the environment more acidic thanks to the absorption of carbon monoxide from the atmosphere. This endangers various marine species, and monitoring those changes is vitally important. But it can be challenging to reach the deepest waters without the aid of very expensive equipment. Moon jellyfish can swim to those depths, however, making them a potential ally in the quest to study the deep ocean. That's why researchers at the University of Colorado

Rad Power Bikes RadRunner Max Review: Faster and Safer Than Ever

In a market that is becoming increasingly more crowded (for the better, as getting more people on bikes is good for all of us), Seattle-based Rad Power Bikes has planted its flag as a brand that offers the fun and utility of an ebike at a lower cost than its competitors, thanks in large part to its direct-to-consumer model. What started as a single-product brand quickly grew into what it is today: North America’s largest ebike manufacturer, with a line that includes off-road bikes, cargo bikes,

I gave the police access to my DNA—and maybe some of yours

This process, called forensic investigative genetic genealogy, or FIGG, has since helped solve hundreds of murders and sexual assaults. Still, while the technology is potent, it’s incompletely realized. It operates via a mishmash of private labs and unregulated websites, like FamilyTree, which give users a choice to opt into or out of police searches. The number of profiles available for search by police hovers around 1.5 million, not yet enough to find matches in all cases. To do my bit to inc
