If the people controlling AI are biased, the output will also be. Free speech scholar Jacob Mchangama makes the case for completely open-source AI.
Portrait of a woman with long dark hair, shown in a halftone effect, centered on a blue patterned background with abstract shapes.
Members
The term "onlyness," coined by marketing expert Nilofer Merchant, highlights that each individual's unique qualities represent irreplaceable value in any industry, setting them apart from the competition.
A collage with the text "THE NIGHTCRAWLER," featuring a hand holding money, coins, and a windowed building, all tinted in pink and black tones.
Welcome to The Nightcrawler — a weekly newsletter from Eric Markowitz covering tech, innovation, and long-term thinking.
Microscopic view of green cyanobacteria chains forming spiral and linear patterns against a dark background, highlighting their role within the microbiome.
In "The Microbiome Master Key," Brett and Jessica Finlay argue that we need to stop waging war on all germs and start working with the microbes that make us who we are.
A digital 3D visualization shows translucent blue shapes in front of a blue wall and floor, illustrating an abstract concept—perhaps a universe without dark matter.
In our Universe, dark matter outmasses normal matter by a 5-to-1 ratio, shaping the Universe as we know it. What if it simply weren't there?
Illustration of a large particle accelerator facility underground, with scientists working and a city landscape above ground.
The laws of nature are almost perfectly symmetric between matter and antimatter, and yet our Universe is made ~100% of matter only. But why?
states of matter
Under extreme conditions, matter takes on properties that lead to remarkable, novel possibilities. Topological superconductors included.
Two images of the Sombrero Galaxy reveal its beauty: one with a bluish hue showcasing visible details, and the other with a reddish hue highlighting a different spectrum. Captured by JWST, these images offer an unmatched view of this spiral galaxy's complex structure.
One of the most promising dark matter candidates is light particles, like axions. With JWST, we can rule out many of those options already.
Open book showing a close-up of a hand squeezing a blue stress ball on the left page, symbolizing pressure, while a grayscale image of a person in a suit with crossed arms graces the right page, set against a serene blue backdrop.
You got your promotion — but managing the pressure inherent to your elevated role is now a crucial part of your job.
MACS J0717 galaxy cluster dark matter
Dark matter doesn't absorb or emit light, but it gravitates. Instead of something exotic and novel, could it just be dark, normal matter?
first contact
Only 5% of the Universe is made of normal "stuff" like we are. Could there be dark matter or dark energy life, or even aliens, out there?
warm-hot intergalactic medium sculptor wall
Here in our Universe, both normal and dark matter can be measured astrophysically. But only normal matter can collapse. Why is that?
It's not only the gravity from galaxies in a cluster that reveals dark matter, but the ejected, intracluster stars actually trace it out.
atoms
If atoms are mostly empty space, then why can't two objects made of atoms simply pass through each other? Quantum physics explains why.
how much dark matter
Two parts of our Universe that seem to be unavoidable are dark matter and dark energy. Could they really be two aspects of the same thing?
