The Home Minister also urged the states to invest immediately in modern technological infrastructure
While the technology is set to play a growing role in modern warfare, there remains an unresolved ethical challenge Should the AI-powered drones of the future have a licence to kill? The question is becoming ever more pressing as governments and the defence industry acknowledge that drone systems will play an increasingly crucial role in future warfare. With drones being deployed in huge numbers in the Ukraine war and AI being used to assist bombing missions in the Iran conflict, there is an expectation among some observers that weapons will have to operate with increased operational autonomy, which means they will need something approximating a moral framework.

This sponsored article is brought to you by Black & Veatch. The biggest challenge facing utilities today isn’t what it seems. It’s not demand, even as load growth accelerates. It’s not extreme weather, even as “major events” become routine. It’s not cybersecurity, even as connections expand across the grid. The real challenge is this: Distribution systems were designed for a different reality. Long gone are the days of predictable demand, one-way power flow and isolated disruptions. At Black & Veatch, we see that leading utilities are no longer debating whether to modernize. They’re deciding how quickly they can do it, and how to do it at scale. Across grid modernization programs globally, three truths consistently emerge. They define what it takes to prepare the distribution system for what’s next: 1. Outage response is not a resilience strategy Resilience is being redefined in real time. A strategy centered on mobilizing crews and restoring service as quickly as possible is reactive, and increasingly insufficient. Resilience has to shift upstream into integrated system design. That starts with hardening. Stronger poles, undergrounding and structural upgrades all have a role, particularly in high-risk corridors. We’re also seeing meaningful gains from how the network is configured and how quickly it can respond without waiting on manual intervention. This is where distribution automation programs can change outcomes. Strategically placed reclosers, automated switches and fault indicators help contain disruptions before they spread. When combined with feeder reconfiguration and updated protection strategies, distribution automation investments allow utilities to set more aggressive recovery targets and achieve measurable reductions in outage duration and customer impact. 2. Future-readiness depends on DERs at scale Forecasting is less and less reliable. Only 19 percent of utilities report strong confidence in their ability to predict future load growth, according to the Black & Veatch 2025 Electric Report. Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) like solar, storage, EVs and behind-the-meter generation are exciting solutions; but they fundamentally change how the system operates. Power is no longer just delivered. It’s injected, stored and redirected in ways the system was never designed to manage. At scale, these challenges show up quickly — particularly on feeders where distributed generation is approaching or exceeding hosting capacity. Protection coordination becomes more difficult when fault current comes from multiple directions. Voltage becomes less predictable as generation fluctuates throughout the day. And planning models must now account for highly variable, location-specific behavior. Distribution modernization is fundamentally changing how the system is designed and operated so it can absorb disruption, manage bi-directional flows and respond in real time. Adapting to bi-directional power flow requires more than incremental updates. Leading utilities are responding by building flexibility into the system, moving beyond static assumptions toward dynamic hosting capacity and interconnection studies, planning that incorporates DER, EV adoption and localized load growth, and infrastructure aligned with the communications and control needed to manage it. 3. The edge must be intelligent, visible and secure As system stress and complexity increase, utilities need far greater visibility and control over the network. Historically, utilities relied on customer calls, Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) at the substation level and field crews to understand what was happening on the system. That model doesn’t hold up. You can’t effectively manage a system you can’t see. Plus, the most critical events are increasingly happening beyond the substation — on feeders, laterals, and at the edge where DER and customer behavior are interacting with the grid. Grid-edge technologies have become essential. Sensors, Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) and automated switching provide the raw data and control needed to move from reactive to proactive operations. In more advanced deployments, utilities are creating centralized control environments that allow operators to see and manage the distribution system in near real time. That capability is enabled by: Advanced communications networks to form the backbone of real-time grid visibility Distribution Management System (DMS) and Outage Management System (OMS) to enable faster, more coordinated system response Analytics, AI and machine learning to improve situational awareness, anticipate system conditions, and support operational decision-making The same connectivity enabling this real-time visibility and control also introduces new vulnerabilities, blurring the line between physical and cyber risk, yet many utilities manage them separately. Only 22 percent have unified teams in place, even as threats continue to rise, including a 50 percent increase in substation attacks and growing exposure to malware and ransomware, according to the Black & Veatch 2025 Electric Report. Cybersecurity and resilient network design must be embedded into the architecture from the outset—not layered on after the fact. See what bolder vision looks like Distribution modernization is fundamentally changing how the system is designed and operated so it can absorb disruption, manage bi-directional flows and respond in real time. To learn about a successful program, check out Georgia Power’s recent grid modernization program. Black & Veatch partnered with the utility on large-scale infrastructure upgrades. The results? Outages are down 76 percent, restoration times have improved by more than 80 percent and communities across Georgia are powered by a grid built to meet the future head-on. When the state faced the most destructive storm in the company’s history, Hurricane Helene, Georgia Power deployed a rapid response team that utilized its “smart grid” and restored power to more than 1 million customers within days. A grid built to meet the future head-on—that’s the result of bolder vision.
According to Evgeny Chereshnev's calculations, training a modern typical model with 1.7-2 trillion parameters costs developers about $100 million per cycle
A real responsável pelo mapeamento inédito dos nervos do clitóris O órgão feminino finalmente teve seus nervos mapeados pela primeira vez. E esse avanço se deu graças a uma mulher coreana. "Eu liderei o projeto de mapeamento dos nervos do clitóris", afirma Ju Young Lee, PhD em neurociência e autora principal do estudo, que nasceu e se graduou na Coreia do Sul. Mas, se você busca o nome dela no Google Acadêmico, é como se ela só existisse a partir do momento em que vai para a Europa e passa a dividir a autoria com colegas de lá. Tanto é que as reportagens sobre o estudo dizem apenas que ele foi feito por cientistas da Amsterdam University Medical Center. Ou seja, Ju Young Lee precisou contornar o viés geopolítico da ciência, que segue predominantemente eurocêntrica - marginalizando a importância das contribuições de culturas fora da Europa e do Norte Global no geral para o nascimento e desenvolvimento da ciência moderna. Como se as únicas ideias intelectuais que importassem fossem as produzidas em solo europeu. Além disso, o foco inicial da carreira dela nem era esse. Imagem 3D mostra extensão de nervos do clitóris Divulgação "Minha formação foi em neurociência. Fiz meu mestrado e doutorado no Instituto Max Planck, na Alemanha, e quase tudo o que estudei foi sobre o cérebro", diz Ju Young Lee. Foi só depois de participar da maior conferência europeia de neurociência que o foco dela mudou. "Havia um grande entusiasmo sobre como o intestino e o cérebro interagem entre si. E eu me lembro de perguntar: 'Alguém está fazendo a mesma pergunta sobre os órgãos ginecológicos? Como esses nervos interagem com o cérebro?' E a resposta deles foi: 'Ah, eu nunca pensei nisso'", afirma. Mas os nervos do pênis a ciência já tinham pensado em mapear três décadas atrás. Há cerca de 20 vezes mais artigos científicos sobre a glande peniana do que sobre a glande clitoriana. Isso diz tudo sobre quanta atenção esse órgão tem recebido. Será que se Ju Young Lee não tivesse um clitóris, ela teria pensado nisso? "Historicamente, a urologia focou no pênis. Já a ginecologia focou mais nos órgãos reprodutivos, como o útero e os ovários. O clitóris fica na lacuna entre eles, e essa é uma das principais razões por que a ciência dele está tão atrasada", diz, Isso a motivou a buscar alguém da ginecologia que tivesse interesse no tema. O que a levou até o Centro Médico da Universidade de Amsterdã, onde passou a integrar o Human Organ Atlas Hub (HOAHub) - um projeto internacional cujo objetivo é mapear o corpo humano em 3D. Basicamente um Google Earth da anatomia. "A reação do público foi o que mais me surpreendeu. Acreditamos que o público estava esperando por essa discussão. Acho que a comunidade científica agora está começando a perceber isso" diz Lee. Mas, para ela, esse é apenas o começo. "E esse campo precisa não só de mais financiamento, mas também de mais conscientização. A maioria das pessoas, incluindo médicos, nunca recebeu um ensino adequado sobre a anatomia do clitóris. Acho que isso precisa mudar", afirma. E ela segue fazendo sua parte nessa conscientização. Tanto dentro do laboratório, com a pesquisa quanto fora dele, com um podcast chamado IGWA Women, que começou apenas em coreano, mas logo ganhou uma versão em inglês. "IGWA é uma palavra coreana para especialização em ciências. Então 'IGWA Women' basicamente significa 'mulheres na ciência'. Abordamos diversos tópicos, desde machine learning até filosofia da ciência e, claro, saúde da mulher. E, para mim, o podcast e o trabalho de laboratório são duas faces da mesma moeda. A ciência do clitóris não pode avançar apenas no laboratório", diz a cientista. Cientistas mapeiam o clitóris pela primeira vez Arte/g1

Children born after 2013 are the first generation to grow up fully immersed in digital systems, which weren’t designed with them in mind. One‑third of the world’s Internet users are younger than 18, according to UNICEF, yet these systems shaping their daily lives were built for adults. They were optimized for engagement and designed long before people understood how profoundly digital environments influence children. For engineers and technical professionals, online safety is not an abstract policy debate. It is a design challenge that demands rigor, systems thinking, and ethical foresight. Governments around the world are also beginning to recognize the problem. Policymakers from across Australia, Brazil, the European Union, Indonesia, and the United States are responding to risks engineers have long understood: Addictive features, inappropriate content, opaque data practices, and algorithmic systems shape user behavior in ways that their creators did not fully predict. For years, technology moved faster than governance. Now governance is trying to catch up. Global Shift Toward Design Reform Supporting National Digital Ambitions In Athens this year I met with senior leaders of Greek government agencies and key national research institutions. Greece is moving quickly on digital transformation and responsible technology governance, and our discussions reinforced IEEE’s role as a trusted, neutral collaborator. We focused on supporting Greece’s ambitions in digital modernization and public‑sector innovation. We also discussed responsible AI and age-appropriate digital design in Europe and elsewhere. These engagements, grounded in shared values and long‑term commitment, strengthened IEEE’s presence within the European ecosystem and opened new pathways for collaboration on trustworthy AI and child‑focused digital well‑being. The European Union and the United Kingdom have been among the first to act, embedding age‑appropriate digital design into their broader children’s rights agenda. Drawing on IEEE expertise and global best practices, Indonesia is the first country in Asia, and Brazil is the first country in Latin America, to adopt age-appropriate design regulation. Australia is aiming to limit access to harmful content and addictive design features through age restrictions on certain platforms. And in the United States, in addition to federal efforts, states including California, New York, and Utah are enacting approaches including age-appropriate design principles. Across these efforts, a shared realization is emerging. Protecting children online is not simply about filtering content or adding parental controls. It requires rethinking the architecture of digital systems regarding how data is collected, how algorithms make decisions, how interfaces influence attention, and how AI interacts with the developing minds of young users. Engineers and technical professionals understand that design choices are never neutral. They encode values, incentives, and assumptions. When the user is a child, those choices carry greater weight. This is where IEEE’s work becomes more essential. Protecting Children Online For more than a decade, IEEE has been building technical and ethical foundations for safer digital experiences. The first IEEE standard on age-appropriate design in 2021 marked a turning point. It offers a structured, principled approach to designing with children’s rights in mind. The Institute’s 2022 article “Use a New IEEE Standard to Design a Safer Digital World for Kids” highlights how the standard helps translate those principles into engineering practice. Today the IEEE Standards Association’s (SA) Trustworthy Digital Experiences portfolio provides a practical, technically grounded framework for governments and industry. Spanning ethical design, data governance, algorithmic transparency, and child‑focused digital well‑being, it has already initiated discussions with government stakeholders around the world. This work helps bridge the gap between engineering realities and policy ambitions. No single country can solve these challenges alone. Many policymakers lack access to the combined expertise in technology, governance, and children’s rights needed to act quickly and effectively. This collaborative effort helps close that gap. The stakes are high. Without coordinated action, public policy will continue to lag behind technology, leaving children exposed to risks that could have been mitigated through thoughtful design. But with the right frameworks, governments can ensure digital systems respect children’s rights, support healthy development, and promote well‑being. IEEE’s emerging standards and collaborative technology policy work offer a path forward. By grounding national efforts in evidence‑based, rights-aligned design principles, IEEE is helping governments move from reactive regulation to proactive, coherent, and globally informed strategies for protecting children online. Safeguarding childhood in the digital age is both a moral imperative and an engineering challenge. And IEEE is helping to lead the way. —Mary Ellen Randall IEEE president and CEO Please share your thoughts with me: president@ieee.org. This article appears in the June 2026 print issue.
From the opening moments of bitknot, it's obvious that Feeble Little Horse has found an entirely new gear. Where on Girl with Fish the blown-out textures were more '90s indie rock and shoegaze, on their latest LP, there's a more modern edge to the distortion and the riffs cut cleaner. Similarly, where the digital glitchiness […]

Shanghai: China's electronics giant Huawei is using a new principle for its chip designing framework that focuses more on cutting transmission time than shrinking transistors. The company plans to use innovative technologies like LogicFolding based on this principle to continuously compress signal propagation delay and improve transistor density.The current chip design framework rests on Moore's law which dates back decades when Intel co-founder Gordon Moore posited in 1965 that the number of transistors on a microchip will double every two years.The Tau Scaling principle could be a revolutionary step in the future of chip designing as it shifts focus from geometric scaling to time scaling. The principle that governs modern advanced chips is to shrink the size of transistors to fit onto a microchip. But this mechanism may have a handicap. It may not be easy to shrink them beyond a point. This is where time scaling becomes useful as it makes cutting signal transmission time the underlying principle of future chip designs.Also Read: PLI 2.0: India bets big on making more of the smartphone at homeThe innovative core technologies like LogicFolding, which Huawei will use for its Kirin chips scheduled to launch in Fall 2026, will work on the Tau Scaling principle in order to drive up performance, energy efficiency, and transistor density."With the t Scaling Law, we look forward to working closely with scientists, engineers, and industry partners around the world to drive the sustainable development of the semiconductor and electronics industries," Huawei's semiconductor chief He Tingbo noted.Huawei's new chip design breakthrough will help the chip maker to sidestep the US sanctions that restrict access to advanced lithography machines from ASML.Also Read: Indian semicon firm Netrasemi plans mass production of its first chip this yearBy 2031, Huawei is aiming for high-end chips based on the t Scaling Law that are expected to feature a transistor density that is equivalent to 14 A (1.4 nm) processes."This is a breakthrough for Huawei, but it's not a threat for TSMC," Reuters quoted Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, who was in Taipei on Thursday."TSMC has been using die stacking and 3D packaging for how long now? Almost 10 years. And so TSMC's technology is very advanced," he added.A Reuters report mentioned Bernstein analysts cautioning in a note that while stacking multiple chip layers boosts transistor density, there's risk of increasing power density and overheating chips.
