Radicalization is a complex process, influenced by many variables that interact to varying degrees. AI scientist Mijke van den Hurk investigated whether artificial intelligence could help unravel this intricate interplay. She defended her Ph.D. thesis cum laude on June 29.
Three months after the feud between Alex Cooper and Alix Earle reached a new peak, the latter finally revealed when she plans to address the drama.
After Cooper called out the social media star in April, Earle teased at the time that she was working on a response. However, a video never came to fruition.

A new Aotearoa New Zealand study has found that nitrate concentrations in drinking water are associated with an increased risk of preterm birth, even at levels well below the current drinking water standard. The study, published in Environmental Research, analyzed 735,831 singleton births between 2008 and 2021, linking gestational age with estimated nitrate concentrations in drinking water at the mother's usual residence.
[This story contains spoilers from In the City‘s season one finale, “Cider and Squabbles.”]
Bravo‘s first season of In the City concluded Tuesday night with emotional confrontations, pregnancy announcements and an inside look at the end of Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula‘s relationship.
How do traffic engineers come up with speed limits? Believe it or not, historically, it was dang near random. Okay, let's call it a matter of custom, to be kinder. But really, it's based on something called the 85th percentile rule, which is similar to an argument by Harvard PhD student Wilbur Smith in 1937. He hypothesized that the safest speed is near the upper end of the 10‑mph band where most drivers travel, and that if more than 15% of drivers are going faster than that band, a higher maximum speed is probably still safe.
The second generational update of the Gigabyte Aorus Master 16 has received a massive price drop in Australia, dropping $2,400 off its original asking price down to a very palatable A$6,599. Bringing together AMD’s flagship 3D V-Cache processing with NVIDIA’s flagship RTX 50-series graphics in an impressively thin frame for its specs, this machine is unapologetically built for high-refresh 1440p/4K gaming and heavy-duty creative work. Keeping the form factor tight whilst bringing the weight as low as possible (approx. 2.3kg).
An AI agent warning appears across a computer screen. China’s new policy framework calls for problematic agents in sensitive sectors to be identifiable, tested and recallable.
In an innovative gas fermentation process, reducing the concentration of carbon dioxide was found to significantly improve microbial production of the biodegradable plastic poly[(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate]. Researchers found that hydrogen-oxidizing bacteria grown under safe, nonflammable gas conditions enable more efficient production of biodegradable plastic at lower CO2 levels. The study provides a promising strategy for sustainable carbon recycling and efficient CO2 utilization.
