Bible Verses of the Day

3 But you, O Lord, are a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter of my head. 4 I cried aloud to the Lord, and he answered me from his holy hill. 5 I lay down and slept; I woke again, for the Lord sustained me. 6 I will not be afraid of many thousands of people who have set themselves against me all around. [Psalm 3:3-6, ESV]

Donald Trump is contemplating appointing Tesla and SpaceX's Elon Musk as a policy adviser, should the Republican candidate secure a second term as US President, a leading US daily has reported.

The two have discussed how Musk may have “formal input and influence” over border security and economic policy, the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported, citing people aware of the developments.

According to these sources, Musk now calls Trump directly from his mobile phone several times a month.

For the first time, a brain implant has helped a bilingual person who is unable to articulate words to communicate in both of his languages. An artificial-intelligence (AI) system coupled to the brain implant decodes, in real time, what the individual is trying to say in either Spanish or English.

The findings1, published on 20 May in Nature Biomedical Engineering, provide insights into how our brains process language, and could one day lead to long-lasting devices capable of restoring multilingual speech to people who can’t communicate verbally.

“This new study is an important contribution for the emerging field of speech-restoration neuroprostheses,” says Sergey Stavisky, a neuroscientist at the University of California, Davis, who was not involved in the study. Even though the study included only one participant and more work remains to be done, “there’s every reason to think that this strategy will work with higher accuracy in the future when combined with other recent advances”, Stavisky says.
