Silicon in your skull: Neuralink’s got company. Paradromics just put a brain chip in a human in a clean 20-minute surgery during epilepsy treatment. It’s their first human implant to prove the tech works; the brain chip was removed after 20 minutes. Next stop: a full clinical trial, and maybe someday, mind-controlled emails. What could go wrong?

That’s how many subscribers MrBeast just hit on YouTube. The data supports it, he’s the undisputed king of the algorithm. He’s got more subscribers than the U.S. has citizens. At this rate, he could drop a video called “I Breathed Air,” and it’d hit 50 million in an hour.
Something in deep space is flashing, and scientists have no idea what it is. It’s 14,700 light-years away and sends out bursts of both radio waves and X-rays. For the record, that isn’t supposed to be possible. Theories? Maybe an ancient magnetar or a white dwarf binary system. Or hear me out: Aliens.
That’s how much of Business Insider’s staff just got axed in one morning. BI swung the layoff scythe again, shedding over a fifth of its workforce (paywall link) as SEO clicks vanish and AI floods the content pool. The memo called it “transformation.” Somewhere, a LinkedIn “Open to Work” badge just blinked to life. P.S. We’re hiring!
The internet speed in Japan. While our Wi-Fi is still buffering Zoom, researchers in Japan pulled off a world record by transferring 1.02 petabits of data per second (yes, that’s over a million gigabytes) across 1,100 miles, using a fiber no thicker than your average spaghetti strand.
How far Aurora’s self-driving 18-wheelers have already cruised through Texas. With no human behind the wheel, they’ve been hauling frozen pastries between Dallas and Houston. Just sensors, code and a CEO nervously vibing in the back seat.
