The danger posed by conversational AI isn’t that it can say weird or dark things; it’s personalized manipulation for nefarious purposes.
The volcano’s historic eruption preserved an ancient library, but rendered its content illegible. A public competition aims to change that.
NASA gave three robots plans for a moon shelter, and the robots figured out how to build it.
