The Fountain of Youth for Your Brain Might Be a Strategy Video Game

The relentless march of time takes an inevitable toll on cognitive function. Yet, emerging research suggests a surprising countermeasure against neural decline may lie not in a pharmaceutical solution, but in complex, demanding recreational activities—including sophisticated video games. According to a 2025 study published in the peer-reviewed scientific journal Nature Communications, individuals deeply engaged in specific "creative" tasks—defined in the study as video games, music, dance, and v...

AI Helped Researchers Block a Virus Before Infection Began

Most antiviral drugs target viruses after they have already slipped inside human cells. Researchers at Washington State University said they found a way to intervene earlier, identifying a single molecular interaction that viruses rely on to enter cells in the first place. The research, published in November in the journal Nanoscale, focused on viral entry, one of the least understood and most difficult stages of infection to disrupt, using artificial intelligence and molecular simulations to id...

Welcome to the AI Village, a Reality Show for AIs

Imagine Big Brother, except the contestants never sleep or eat and can rewrite their own rules. That’s the idea behind AI Village, a live-streamed experiment that places multiple AI agents together in a shared digital environment, allowing researchers—and curious spectators—to watch what happens when frontier models are given autonomy, computers, and constant company. The experiment, which has been running for the better part of a year, was organized by The AI Digest, in which multiple AI models...

Merriam-Webster Declares 'Slop' the Word of the Year as AI Eats the Web

In what many observers might characterize as both ironic and, in some respects, entirely predictable, Merriam-Webster has named “slop” its 2025 Word of the Year—a term increasingly used to describe large volumes of low-quality digital content generated at scale, by artificial intelligence. It’s not that this content is incorrect; it’s that it is correct in ways that feel strangely beside the point and obviously AI-written. Slop is not a new word, nor a particularly complex one. Historically, it...

Transhumanism Branded a 'Death Cult' as Thinkers Clash Over Humanity's Future

Transhumanism, a movement that seeks to defeat aging and death through technology, was sharply criticized during a recent debate between philosophers, scientists, and transhumanist advocates, who rejected the accusation as misguided and reactionary. The exchange took place Dec. 4 at the UK-based Institute of Art and Ideas’ “World’s Most Dangerous Idea” event, where neuroscientist and philosopher Àlex Gómez-Marín argued that the movement functions as a pseudo-religion—one that aims to eliminate t...

New AI Tool Promises to Decode—And Replicate—Social Video Virality

A new AI startup is pitching a data-driven solution to one of digital media’s most unpredictable challenges: making content go viral. Buzzy, an AI platform that launched in early December, says it can analyze and remix high-performing videos across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and X by identifying the structural traits that drive clicks and shares. The tool then applies those patterns to user-submitted material, generating multiple short-form video variants aimed at boosting engagement across pla...
