    'Doom' CAPTCHA Turns Online Security Into a Demon-Slaying Nightmare Challenge

    We’ve all been there—trying to access a website, only to face the dreaded CAPTCHA. But what if, instead of matching obscured letters, ducks, or stairs, you could blast demons from hell? That’s the premise of Doom CAPTCHA, a new project that uses the classic first-person shooter Doom to prove a person isn’t a bot. Doom CAPTCHA is the brainchild of software engineer and CEO of software developer Vercel, Guillermo Rauch, who shared a video of the project on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday. “Verify...

    The Rise of Humanoid Robots in 2024

    Not so long ago, I found myself sitting across from Desdemona, lead singer of the jazz-rock jam band Desdemona’s Dream. Desi, as she likes to be called, and her older sister Sophia took the music world by storm, not because of their vocal stylings but because they are both life-sized humanoid robots. The robot wasn’t wearing it’s usual Kool Ade-colored wig but otherwise appeared “normal” for a robot. Designed to interact with humans, Desi’s face included all of the features you would expect of a...
