MILAN — The Finnish military has launched a tender to procure mixed-sized military robots that will help ground forces in disposing explosive threats, as more armed forces in Europe refine their combat robotics requirements.
The Nordic country is seeking two models of robots, a large and a smaller variant, that will equip the Finnish Defense Forces’ explosive ordnance and improvised explosive…
Best SSDs: From SATA to PCIe 5.0, from budget to premium
August 27, 2025
SSDs, or solid state drives, have drastically improved the computing experience over the last decade or so. Thanks to them, once ponderous boot times now border on instantaneous, programs and games are far more responsive, and the frustratingly long waits to load large files…
Working from home has gone from being a growing trend to a full-scale phenomenon. There are many perks to a work-from-home arrangement, to be sure, but there can also be downsides: For example, there’s a good chance you’ll need to supply your own monitor.

An apparent leak of the planned notebook CPU releases from AMD and Intel have revealed both company’s plans through 2025 and beyond, showing off a complex AMD roadmap that extends in 2027 with the release of “Gator Range” and AMD’s Zen 6 architecture.
The roadmap was published on the website of Seleno, a Spanish electronics manufacturer, and downloadable from a button marked “Roadmap”…
A glowing hand stretches across the cosmos, with its palm and fingers sculpted from the wreckage of a massive stellar explosion.
The eerie structure is part of the nebula MSH 15-52, powered by pulsar B1509-58 — a rapidly spinning neutron star that is only about 12 miles…
On Aug. 2, 2027, a total solar eclipse will cast its shadow from the Strait of Gibraltar through North Africa and into the heart of the Arabian Peninsula. During the eclipse, the sun’s disk will be completely covered from our perspective on Earth for a maximum of 6…
New research suggests that dark matter could gather over vast periods of time at the heart of Jupiter-sized planets, creating black holes that eat these worlds from within. This striking concept may mean extrasolar planets, or “exoplanets,” could be used to study the mystery of dark matter.
In this new model, superheavy dark matter particles could be trapped by exoplanets, losing…
MCP-Universe benchmark shows GPT-5 fails more than half of real-world orchestration tasks
August 26, 2025
The adoption of interoperability standards, such as the Model Context Protocol (MCP), can provide enterprises with insights into how agents and models function outside their walled confines. However, many benchmarks fail to capture real-life interactions with…
A new study from Arizona State University researchers suggests that the celebrated “Chain-of-Thought” (CoT) reasoning in Large Language Models (LLMs) may be more of a “brittle mirage” than genuine intelligence. The research builds on a growing body of work…
When OpenAI launched GPT-5 about two weeks ago, CEO Sam Altman promised it would be the company’s “smartest, fastest, most useful model yet.” Instead, the launch triggered one of the most contentious user revolts in the brief history of consumer AI.
Now, a simple blind testing tool created by an anonymous developer is revealing the complex reality behind the backlash—and challenging…
