Scenario prompts 17 May 2024
The topics are quantum internet, headphones, trends in AI, feeling robots, warp drives, holograms, deadbots, marketing, superconductors, building embryos, insect-sized intelligent flying robots and longevity.
Warp drives, holograms and deadbots …….
Scientists Step Toward Quantum Internet With Experiment Under the Streets of Boston
A quantum internet would essentially be unhackable. In the future, sensitive information—financial or national security data, for instance, as opposed to memes and cat pictures—would travel through such a network in parallel to a more traditional internet.
AI-powered noise-filtering headphones give users the power to choose what to hear
https://techxplore.com/news/2024-05-ai-powered-noise-filtering-headphones.html
A system for targeted speech hearing in noisy environments and developed AI-based headphones that selectively filter out specific sounds while preserving others.

New robot hand could feel objects as sensitively as a blindfolded person
https://interestingengineering.com/innovation/new-tactile-robot-hand
Researchers have developed a new “feeling” robotic hand that can sense touch like humans do.
A Groundbreaking Scientific Discovery Just Created the Instruction Manual for Light-Speed Travel
https://www.popularmechanics.com/science/a60790877/light-speed-breakthrough/
In a first for warp drives, this research actually obeys the laws of physics.
Femtosecond Lasers Create 3-D Midair Plasma Displays You Can Touch
https://spectrum.ieee.org/femtosecond-lasers-create-3d-midair-plasma-displays-you-can-touch
Science fiction has promised us three-dimensional midair displays since at least the first Star Wars movie.
Future humans could be haunted by digital “ghosts” of their dead loved ones, researchers warn
Cambridge researchers are warning that people could become unintended targets of emotional distress from AI “deadbots” resembling aspects of their deceased loved ones
How AI will reinvent Marketing

What happens in a world of infinite labor, infinite content, and mass personalization
How to put a data center in a shoebox
https://spectrum.ieee.org/superconducting-computer
One way to manage the unsustainable energy requirements of the computing sector is to fundamentally change the way we compute. Superconductors could let us do just that.
Building embryos
https://aeon.co/essays/after-3000-years-of-science-the-embryo-is-very-different
For 3,000 years, humans have struggled to understand the embryo. Now there is a revolution underway
New neural tech could power insect-sized intelligent flying robots
https://interestingengineering.com/innovation/neuromorphic-technology-drone-flight
Researchers have developed a neuromorphic vision-to-control mechanism that makes autonomous drone flights possible
The Business Case for Longevity
https://www.nfx.com/post/business-case-for-longevity
The average life expectancy of a human in the US is about 77 years. The average healthspan, defined as the years you have a healthy body, is shorter, around 66 years.
