Neuralink trial participants are driving wheelchairs with…
Neural signals from the motor cortex now map to a virtual joystick that drives a powered wheelchair in real time. Investigational, not FDA-approved, but a clean example of ML decoding leaving the screen and controlling hardware.

China's 582-tonne fusion magnet is heavier than…
The Institute of Plasma Physics accepted a toroidal field coil for China's CRAFT fusion program that is 1.3 times the volume of ITER magnets and stores three times the energy. Full-load testing passed in Hefei. Fusion power by 2030 is still a bet, but the hardware stack is real.

Every population may carry DNA from a…
A Science study analyzed 503 modern genomes with a new TRACE model and found archaic ancestry that matches no known Neanderthal or Denisovan sequence in every population tested. Roughly 0.5 to 1 percent of non-African genomes may come from a branch that split off more than 500,000 years ago.
