Optical fiber, as a physical medium for information transmission, is the “highway” of modern economic and social development. However, with the continuous emergence of high-speed and high-capacity communication scenarios such as virtual reality, 5G, intelligent driving, and the Internet of Things (IoT), there is an upper limit to the communication capacity (traffic flow) of the traditional single-mode fiber-optic communication system (highway).
Skyfire claims it is offering the world’s first payment network designed to support fully autonomous transactions across AI agents, large language models (LLMs), data platforms and various service providers.
This development marks a significant step toward creating a new global economy where AI agents can function as independent economic actors, capable of making and receiving payments without human intervention.
“We really see that next million users for a lot of these [vendor] companies coming from AI agents being the customer,” said Sarhangi.
A very dangerous position to be in the world community of scientist should gather in agreement those friendly to the values and principles of democracy to advance science for the good humanity and freedom.
The U.S. sorely needs a coordinated national research strategy, says Marcia McNutt, president of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences.
In a first-ever “State of the Science” address at the end of June, National Academy of Sciences president Marcia McNutt warned that the U.S. was ceding its global scientific leadership to other countries—highlighting China in particular. McNutt, a widely respected geophysicist, said this slippage could make it harder for the U.S. to maintain the strength of its economy and protect its national security. She also laid out a provisional plan of action to reverse the decline.
Space-based solar power, an innovative concept that involves capturing solar energy in space and transmitting it to Earth, offers limitless opportunities in system design, manufacturing and deployment. This technology has the potential to revolutionize the energy industry, addressing global clean energy demands while minimizing environmental impact.
The availability of space resources, such as asteroid mining and lunar regolith utilization, presents opportunities for companies that invest in technologies and techniques to extract and process these resources, including precious metals, water and rare minerals.
The importance of continued investment in space exploration cannot be overstated. As space technology advances, businesses must consider potential applications in their industries. Collaboration between space agencies and private companies is key to driving innovation and economic growth, offering countless opportunities for the future.

NVIDIA unveiled a suite of services, models, and computing platforms designed to accelerate the development of humanoid robots globally. Key highlights include:
- NVIDIA NIM™ Microservices: These containers, powered by NVIDIA inference software, streamline simulation workflows and reduce deployment times. New AI microservices, MimicGen and Robocasa, enhance generative physical AI in Isaac Sim™, built on @NVIDIAOmniverse
- NVIDIA OSMO Orchestration Service: A cloud-native service that simplifies and scales robotics development workflows, cutting cycle times from months to under a week.
- AI-Enabled Teleoperation Workflow: Demonstrated at #SIGGRAPH2024, this workflow generates synthetic motion and perception data from minimal human demonstrations, saving time and costs in training humanoid robots.
NVIDIA’s comprehensive approach includes building three computers to empower the world’s leading robot manufacturers: NVIDIA AI and DGX to train foundation models, Omniverse to simulate and enhance AIs in a physically-based virtual environment, and Jetson Thor, a robot supercomputer. The introduction of NVIDIA NIM microservices for robot simulation generative AI further accelerates humanoid robot development.
CEDAR PARK, Texas (KXAN) — Cedar Park is now home to a first-of-its-kind distinction in the state. The city is now hoping to cash in on the popularity of video games and virtual reality.
Cedar Park is now officially known as a “Digital Media Friendly Texas Certified Community.”
“This program is really designed to bring in that tech and creative talent,” Arthur Jackson, Chief Economic Development Officer for the city, said.
When I have described my rationale for the likelihood of the Economic Singularity, key to this has been the ability of this new form of machine intelligence to make decisions and to make plans.
SummaryTatiana Mamut, co-founder of Wayfound AI, explains that AI agents are like human workers with the ability to interact and make decisions on their own…
