This rocket engine wasn't designed by humans, but by AI. It was created using Noyron, a physics based engineering AI built by LEAP 71. Instead of learning from past designs, it uses real physics, thermodynamics, and manufacturing rules to generate engines directly from requirements.

Engineers from the UK have “taught” mushrooms to play music using bionic arms. Are humans going too far with technology? 🤔 Jon Ross and Andy Kidd, engineers and artists from the UK, have developed a system that allows mushrooms and plants to play music through bionic arms. Jon, the visionary behind Bionic and the Wires, combines art, technology, and environmental thinking to create custom bionic arms that enable plants and fungi to produce music and visual art, challenging traditional human-centered notions of creativity by empowering non-human lifeforms to express themselves. Complementing this, Andy, a skilled electronic musician and live performer, transforms bio-signals from nature into immersive soundscapes using synthesizers and digital tools, bridging the organic and technological realms. Together, their innovative collaboration pushes the boundaries of art and redefines who (or what) can be considered an artist. Their project merges biology, robotics, and creativity, turning natural bioelectric signals into expressive performances, and here’s how they describe it: “We connect bionic arms to mushrooms and plants so they can play music and be creative. Our art explores new ways of thinking about the natural world. All life creates bio-electrical signals. Our equipment converts these into signals that are used to control the arms. Recent research suggests that fungi and plants exhibit surprising levels of intelligence, including decision-making, learning, memory, and the ability to respond to sound waves.”
