A report by the Youth AI Safety Institute documents failures in Google's AI search tools regarding crisis detection, content accuracy, and academic integrity. The institute recommends that Google disable these features by default for all minor accounts.

Scientists have developed a method to stabilize and cool radioactive radium molecules, enabling their use as high-precision quantum sensors.

Researchers have identified a molecular chain reaction, involving the CXCL12 signal, that explains how smoking damages gum tissue and bone structure. This discovery could lead to targeted therapies that address inflammation in periodontitis without compromising broader immune defenses.

Data from the GW250114 black hole merger allows scientists to map the 'ringing' of space-time, providing a test for Einstein’s general relativity. This analysis also confirms predictions such as Hawking’s area theorem.

A new chemical process converts mixed plastic waste into high-purity hydrogen fuel by eliminating the need for sorting. This research offers a potential route for waste reduction and energy production.

A security breach at Suno has confirmed the systematic scraping of millions of audio files and lyrics for training its AI models. The leaked internal logs provide new evidence for record labels currently suing the company over alleged copyright infringement.

Splunk, Zoom, and several major web browsers have issued urgent security updates to address critical vulnerabilities, including some with public exploit code.

Bandai Namco is bringing the latest Katamari entry to the Nintendo Switch 2 with improved graphics, frame rates, and exclusive mouse controls. This release coincides with the multi-platform launch of the streamer-themed Rolling LIVE Highlights expansion.

Researchers at Louisiana State University have developed a quantum statistical plasmonic metacrystal that maintains coherence at room temperature. This development offers a new blueprint for quantum computing and potential applications in increasing solar cell efficiency.

Scientific analysis has ruled out habitability for the four exoplanets orbiting Barnard's Star due to extreme heat, volatile geology, and atmosphere loss.

Researchers identified the dimmest planet ever directly imaged, uncovering a cold gas giant within the Beta Pictoris system after it remained hidden for 11 years.

AI identifies liquid-like ion flow in solids

Sandia National Laboratories has engineered robust crystal-based sensors to overcome diagnostic failures caused by intense electromagnetic interference.

A study of 22 galaxies shows that molecular cloud lifecycles remain consistent regardless of their location, suggesting spiral arms organize gas.

Scientists are transitioning from exploring quantum mechanics to harnessing qubits for advanced computing, while addressing the cybersecurity threats posed.

Equipped with the world's largest digital camera, the observatory is beginning a massive cinematic survey of the southern sky to track transient events. The project aims to study the universe by mapping billions of stars and galaxies over the next decade.

Google is opening its Play Store catalog to competing third-party storefronts in the United States. This shift requires stores to meet security and administrative criteria while allowing developers to manage their distribution settings.

A study shows that horses can experience high physiological stress during predator encounters without displaying common outward signs of agitation. This disconnect suggests handlers must look beyond physical behavior to accurately assess a horse's internal welfare.

A Dutch streamer lost his 25-year-old account, including personal photos and a large digital game library, after Microsoft permanently suspended it following a hack.

The iOS 27 public beta is now available, introducing a major overhaul to Siri with advanced AI capabilities and deep system integration across Apple devices.
