This is a very cool development in the area of brain-machine interfaces, and will probably propel artificial limb technology by leaps and bounds. It will be wonderful… until the machines rise up and overthrow us.

Pursuing the Next Level of Artificial Intelligence

This is a good profile on Daphne Koller, who is on the bleeding edge of a very promising approach to developing artificial intelligence, which is based more on emulating the world works rather than attempting to build out logic trees.
Of course, I would be remiss if I didn’t once again point out that you should be preparing for the robot revolution, as well as our eventual servitude to our future machine overlords.

It’s really only a matter of time before this kind of technology is being implanted rather than worn. And then… here come the cyborgs.

This is awesome. I want one of these in a flashlight. Other thoughts: any technology that converts gas into plasma to work is cool in my book.

Don’t get too excited, this is still a long way off. This article really just deals with a nanotechnology breakthrough making this kind of storage possible. This technology could store appoximately 4 Petabits per square inch on a plastic (not silicon) chip.

Second Life, in a move to encourage development has released the source code of their client application under GPL v.2. This is great news for the open source community, particularly Linux users.
Also exciting is the articulation of Linden Labs vision of “a globally interconnected grid with clients and servers published and managed by different groups.” Man, that’s hot.
