Section 2 of Trump’s order is written vaguely to give the administration leeway to challenge many types of AI laws. “It is the policy of the United States to sustain and enhance the United States’ global AI dominance through a minimally burdensome national policy framework for AI,” the section says. Colorado law irks Trump The executive order specifically names a Colorado law that requires AI developers to protect consumers against “algorithmic discrimination.” It defines this type of discrimination as “any condition in which the use of an artificial intelligence system results in an unlawful differential treatment or impact that disfavors…
Move aside, Bermuda Triangle: The newest North Atlantic mystery lies beneath this enigmatic archipelago. Scientists have discovered a strange, 12.4-mile-thick (20 kilometers) rock layer below the oceanic crust under Bermuda. This level of thickness has never been seen in any other similar layer worldwide.”Typically, you have the bottom of the oceanic crust and then it would be expected to be the mantle,” said study lead author William Frazer, a seismologist at Carnegie Science in Washington D.C. “But in Bermuda, there is this other layer that is emplaced beneath the crust, within the tectonic plate that Bermuda sits on.”While the origin…
Larian Studios didn’t rest on its laurels for long. Two years after taking home the Game of the Year prize for Baldur’s Gate III at The Game Awards, the developer popped up again at the 2025 edition of the ceremony to announce its upcoming project, which is the next entry in the Divinity series. Simply called Divinity, this will be the studio’s biggest game to date with “more breadth and depth than ever before,” according to TGA host Geoff Keighley.After 2017’s Divinity: Original Sin II, Larian took a break from the series with which it established itself to make BG3.…
Laptops (and PCs) don’t have to be massive or insanely expensive to get the job done. If you’re after a machine that takes care of all your everyday work and play-related tasks with ease, Amazon is letting you upgrade for under $500 right now; you read that right. The 15.6-inch HP laptop, which would run you around $2,000 on a regular day, is currently going for $400. That’s after the retailer took a whopping 80% off its retail tag. But as you’d expect, the deal is selling fast. Whether you’re looking to snap one for yourself or want to gift…
To test their AI-powered hand, the team asked intact and amputee participants to manipulate fragile objects: pick up a paper cup and drink from it, or take an egg from a plate and put it down somewhere else. Without the AI, they could succeed roughly one or two times in 10 attempts. With the AI assistant turned on, their success rate jumped to 80 or 90 percent. The AI also decreased the participants’ cognitive burden, meaning they had to focus less on making the hand work. But we’re still a long way away from seamlessly integrating machines with the human…
A postmortem examination has revealed that Cassius, an 18-foot-long (5.5 meters) captive crocodile that died last year in Australia at the age of about 120, succumbed to sepsis.An infection from an injury that Cassius sustained in the wild more than 40 years ago burst out of a fibrous casing and “engulfed” the saltwater crocodile (Crocodylus porosus), killing him suddenly, Sally Isberg, the managing director of the Center for Crocodile Research in Darwin who conducted the examination, told ABC News.Sealed, “dormant” infections are well documented in crocodiles, but Cassius had the longest reported existence of such an infection, Isberg said. “In…

Forza Horizon 6 will star in Microsoft’s first gaming showcase of 2026. Rockstar is still claiming fired employees were leaking game secrets. And the anime studio behind Neon Genesis Evangelion is officially no more. Welcome to the latest edition of Morning Checkpoint, Kotaku‘s daily roundup of gaming news and culture, which is even later than usual today because we’re all hung over from The Game Awards. I apologize. It was a late one. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 went home with almost everything. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 went home with literally nothing. But who’s really keeping track? Only 10 percent of…
Translate can now use Gemini to interpret the meaning of a phrase rather than simply translating each word. Credit: Google Translate can now use Gemini to interpret the meaning of a phrase rather than simply translating each word. Credit: Google Regardless of whether you’re using live translate or just checking a single phrase, Google claims the Gemini-powered upgrade will serve you well. Google Translate is now apparently better at understanding the nuance of languages, with an awareness of idioms and local slang. Google uses the example of “stealing my thunder,” which wouldn’t make a lick of sense when translated literally…
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has spotted a distant exoplanet that should be impossible. The ultrahot super-Earth, named TOI-561 b, is surrounded by a thick atmosphere of hot gas that blankets a planet covered by a broiling magma ocean.Astronomers have been surprised by several of the hell planet’s features, which don’t match what we’ve found elsewhere in the universe. The discovery could reshape what we know about the types of planets that can form and evolve.”What’s really exciting is that this new data set is opening up even more questions than it’s answering,” study lead author Johanna Teske, staff…
