A team of researchers led by the University of California San Diego have discovered what's responsible for making the teeth of the deep-sea dragonfish transparent. This unique adaptation, which helps camouflage the dragonfish from their prey, results from their teeth having an unusually crystalline....Man’s best friend may be great at pulling a sled, but a manmade best friend can pull an entire airplane.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking.
Yeah well a guy on a glorified golf cart making 12 bucks an hour can pull the same plane quicker....
We already knew humans could make biased AIs — but the United Nations says the reverse is true as well.
United Nations: Siri and Alexa are encouraging misogyny

Programmers are coding their gender biases into the AIs.
Any ai programmed and tested in a masochistic or in a society that also has systemic racial bias can only use the info that's inputted. Crap in. ...crap out
Only the lazyiest of people have the alexa or siri. Honestly like lays bags paying for air
I don't think it takes a genius to figure that out. We call beautiful works of art feminine names and we referred to our houses or our boats or our motorcycles as she. Because to the modern world, women are something to own and control and attain to own and control.
Alexa, turn on Siri.
You prefer HAL?
How about, that's inappropriate, I cannot respond.
Screw UNOWO
AI influencing the generation of bias in humans? It's almost like, if you're hearing something negative get released to you, it gets normalized in your mind, like Pavlov's dog. Why, this might even influence small children! Who fucking knew? -_- #Idiocracy
Who cares when they kill you
If you use Alexa or Siri you're just turning back into a helpless monkey anyways. It's not misogyny, feminists control everything and the sound of a man's voice indicates stupidity now to the masses who are helpless without a virtual assistant. You're going to miss having men in your society.
To clean up the aviation industry, NASA-funded scientists are working to develop an all-electric aircraft powered by cryogenically-liquified hydrogen fuel.
NASA is working on electric planes powered by cryogenic hydrogen

"...practical cryogenic systems remain the 'holy grail' for large aircraft because of their unmatched power density and efficiency."
NASA, eh? So......in 50 years they might get a prototype with a budget of half a trillion? And a first flight a decade later just before a Space X fusion powered ion drive makes it obsolete?
That’s going to be a cool craft.
