[Revelation 5:13-14 ESV]

Engineers have worked out how to give robots complex instructions without electricity for the first time which could free up more space in the robotic 'brain' for them to 'think'.
Mimicking how some parts of the human body work, researchers from King's College London have transmitted a series of commands to devices with a new kind of compact circuit, using variations in pressure from a fluid inside it.
They say this world first opens up the possibility of a new generation of robots, whose bodies could operate independently of their built-in control center, with this space potentially being used instead for more complex AI powered software.

The New York Times is reported to be taking on another AI company over the alleged use of its content, but this time it’s the startup Perplexity which is backed by Jeff Bezos.
According to the Wall Street Journal (WSJ), the publisher has sent Perplexity a ‘cease and desist’ notice demanding they stop accessing and using its content. WSJ says it has reviewed a copy of the letter.
The letter from the Times, which was sent through its law firm, is reported as saying the way Perplexity is using its content, including to create summaries and other output, violates its rights under copyright law.
