DARPA Is Taking Its AI Fighter Jet Program to the Next Level

gizmodo.com Aj Dellinger 2025-11-30 02:40:01

Imagine Top Gun without pilots. Not exactly summer blockbuster material. But that is what the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has in mind for the future of the military. According to an announcement spotted by The Register, the agency recently handed out a multi-million dollar contract that will push forward its autonomous pilot program that will eventually deploy planes into warfare without a human being behind the control stick. The contract, announced earlier this week, was

McKinsey Terrified as It Realizes AI Can Do Its Job Perfectly

Illustrious consulting firm McKinsey is staring down the barrel of AI. All those highly-paid suits are at risk as AI agents, AI models designed to autonomously carry out certain tasks, promise to do what they do with instant results — and without six-figure salary demands. "Do I think that this is existential for our profession? Yes, I do," Kate Smaje, a senior partner tapped to lead McKinsey's AI efforts, told the Wall Street Journal.

Is Air Travel Getting Worse? More delays, fewer accidents, and lower prices

news.ycombinator.com Maxwell Tabarrok 2025-11-30 02:06:33

Over the past couple of years, bad personal experiences with delays, testimonies from friends, and news or reactions to air travel incidents seem to have become much more common. It’s difficult to tell if these extra anecdotes reflect a change in the true rate of airline accidents and delays or if they instead result from fluctuations in the human social layer where confirmation bias, saliency, and mimesis can draw our concern far out of proportion. Thus, I turn to the primary source data. Her

Developers Say GPT-5 Is a Mixed Bag

wired.com Lauren Goode 2025-11-30 06:47:49

When OpenAI launched GPT-5 last week, it told software engineers the model was designed to be a “true coding collaborator” that excels at generating high-quality code and performing agentic, or automated, software tasks. While the company didn’t say so explicitly, OpenAI appeared to be taking direct aim at Anthropic’s Claude Code, which has quickly become many developers’ favored tool for AI-assisted coding. But developers tell WIRED that GPT-5 has been a mixed bag so far. It shines at technica

The $100 open-ear headphones that made me forget about my Shokz

I depend on earbuds to keep my runs from feeling like a chore. This is especially so during the hot summer months, when any distraction from the heat is a necessity. When I go on longer runs, I need earbuds that can not only tolerate my copious sweat, but also not constantly remind me that I have something on my ears. Because of the amount of sweat I produce when running, I can't wear traditional earbuds (I've destroyed at least a dozen pairs), which means I have to use either bone-conducting h

Does Steven Spielberg’s ‘AI: Artificial Intelligence’ Play Differently Today?

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-11-30 11:00:42

Rewatching Steven Spielberg’s 2001 film AI: Artificial Intelligence, it feels as plausible as ever, but also more misguided. In 2001, AI was barely a thought in everyday life. It was the thing that destroyed the world in Terminator, and still a lofty goal in tech circles. Today, as the technology continues to grow and dominate daily conversation in almost every way, you may expect to watch the film and have a slightly new perspective. Some change in insight.

Airbrush art of the 80s (2015)

The 80’s was a decade of many things — excess, greed, and big hair, to name a few — but it was also the heyday for airbrush art. As a teenager in the late 80’s, I desperately wanted an airbrush so I could paint my favorite band logos on the back of my jean jacket, and maybe make some money on the side painting t-shirts and license plates.

Taiwanese politics increasingly revolves around one crucial question: Will China invade? China’s ruling party has wanted to seize Taiwan for more than half a century. But in recent years, China’s leader, Xi Jinping, has placed greater emphasis on the idea of “taking back” the island (which the Chinese Communist Party, or CCP, has never controlled). Many in Taiwan and elsewhere think one major deterrent has to do with the island’s critical role in semiconductor manufacturing. Taiwan produces t

Mozilla, in its finite wisdom, embedded LLM bots into recent versions of Firefox for the vitally-important purpose of… naming tab groups.

Squarely in the middle Taiwan’s modern security uncertainties stem from the long-contested issue of the island’s sovereignty. After losing the first Sino-Japanese War in the late 1800s, the Qing dynasty forfeited Taiwan to Japanese imperial control. It was Japan’s “model colony” until 1945, when postwar negotiations resulted in its transfer to the Republic of China under Chiang Kai-shek of the Nationalist Party, known as the KMT.
