Biologists use specialized open-source models for tasks like modeling the structure of molecular systems, designing drug-like molecules, and predicting the effects of genetic mutations. But these models are often expensive to run, potentially limiting their impact. In our latest Science Blog, we share how Claude was able to optimize inference for more than 30 open-source models, making them 4x faster on average, partly by writing custom software for GPUs. We’re open sourcing all of the optimization code. Read more:

Churches are some of the most beautiful buildings in the country! The people who serve them deserve better treatment. 14.5 million pastors, missionaries, and faith-based professionals are saving for retirement in plans that charge more and offer less than what corporate employees get. The gap comes down to one thing: 401(k) plans can use CITs and 403(b) plans can’t. That's a regulatory problem, and the SEC can close it.

Project Suncatcher has liftoff! ☀️🚀 Announced last year, this moonshot project explores if we can one day host machine learning infrastructure in space. After years of research, we’ve just launched a prototype satellite, built in partnership with Planet, into orbit on SpaceX's Transporter-18 rideshare mission. This initial mission will gather data on how Google TPUs handle the physical stress and extremes of spaceflight. Ultimately, these findings will help us explore how to potentially link multiple satellite constellations for scaled machine learning. By operating in low Earth orbit, these systems can tap into near-constant sunlight to generate up to 8x more solar power than on Earth.

🚨 RESEARCHERS JUST MADE WATER-BASED BATTERIES LAST OVER 2,800 HOURS WITH RECORD CAPACITY. A team in South Korea has developed a simple zwitterionic electrolyte additive that dramatically improves the performance of aqueous (water-based) batteries a technology long seen as a safer, cheaper, and more environmentally friendly alternative to lithium-ion. The additive forms tiny nanostructures that guide zinc to deposit evenly on the electrode and create a protective layer that prevents corrosion and unwanted side reactions with water. This solves two of the biggest problems that have limited aqueous batteries: uneven metal buildup and rapid capacity fade. In testing, the modified batteries achieved a world-leading areal capacity of 8.10 mAh cm⁻² and ran stably for more than 2,800 hours. Why this matters: • Aqueous batteries are non-flammable and use abundant, low-cost materials, but have historically suffered from poor lifespan and performance • This approach improves both cycle life and capacity at the same time — something many previous solutions struggled to achieve together • It uses a simple additive rather than requiring expensive new materials or complex manufacturing changes • The technology is particularly relevant for large-scale energy storage needed for renewables and AI data centers The deeper implication: We’re getting closer to making safe, scalable, and affordable grid storage a reality. While lithium-ion still dominates, aqueous batteries could become a strong contender for stationary storage where safety, cost, and longevity matter more than energy density. A small molecular tweak unlocking major performance gains shows how materials engineering at the nanoscale can have outsized real-world impact. This is the kind of incremental but meaningful progress that compounds over time. How important do you think safer, water-based batteries will be for the future energy grid compared to improving lithium-ion or other alternatives?

Japan is one of those places where a Powerwall can earn its keep pretty quickly. Tesla’s Powerwall 3 is now available there, packing 13.5 kWh of storage, 9.69 kW of output and its own solar inverter. It’s built for local weather and grid conditions too, which matters in a country dealing with high power prices, typhoons and earthquakes. Keep the lights on. Use more of your own solar. Worry less when the grid goes down. That’s a pretty useful box on the wall. Tesla / Writer: Annette, Grok Imagine Designer: Janné

ICE Watch groups (such as Defending the 612, local domestic terrorist group in MN) are training useful idiots to use whistles and cars to imbed ICE so illegal aliens can remain in our country. - Harassment and disruption: Activists blow whistles directly at ICE officers (e.g., following them into restaurants or public spaces) to make them uncomfortable, draw attention, or encourage them to leave. Guidelines from related ICE Watch materials encourage "laying on horns and/or blowing whistles when confirming abductor [ICE] presence to warn others," noting that this often causes agents to depart. - Vehicle pursuit tactics: A common recommendation in Defend the 612-linked "community response resources" and training materials is to follow suspected ICE vehicles while "honking and blowing on whistles" to create traffic jams, slowdowns, or general obstruction, aiming to hinder ICE movements. - Distribution and preparation: Groups distribute 3D-printed whistles (sometimes in colors like pink), include them in "whistle brigade kits," or provide them for free/patrol use. Participants at school drop-offs, patrols, or rapid responses carry them ready to blow upon sighting ICE.

Across West Africa, waist beads have been worn by women for generations, but their meanings vary between cultures. Among the Yorùbá, jigida or ìlẹ̀kẹ̀ can be associated with beauty, femininity, maturity, status, and rites of passage. In Ghana, beads hold particular importance among communities such as the Krobo, where they feature prominently in Dipo, an initiation tradition marking a girl's transition into womanhood. Waist beads can also emphasize the waist and hips, express sensuality, and, because traditional strands do not stretch, make changes in the body noticeable. Their colors, materials, and designs can carry additional meanings depending on the community. Today, women may wear them for cultural identity, beauty, tradition, fashion, or simply personal significance. There is no single "African meaning" of waist beads; their symbolism is rooted in specific cultures and individual traditions.

🚨 SCIENTISTS JUST FOUND A WAY TO CONTROL QUANTUM LIGHT BY SIMPLY TWISTING ATOM-THIN LAYERS LIKE TUNING A GUITAR STRING. Researchers at the University of Technology Sydney have discovered that twisting and restacking layers of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) gives them unprecedented control over quantum emitters tiny defects that produce single photons of light. By changing the twist angle between layers, they can significantly shift the color and wavelength of the quantum light being emitted. This level of tuning is much larger than what’s typically possible with other quantum materials. Why this matters: • Quantum emitters are essential building blocks for quantum computers, secure communication, and ultra-sensitive sensors • Until now, precisely controlling their properties has been extremely difficult • hBN’s natural layered structure allows researchers to repeatedly pick up, twist, and restack layers to fine-tune the emitters • The tuning achieved here is significantly stronger than in most other platforms The deeper implication: This approach turns a fundamental property of 2D materials (twistronics) into a practical tool for quantum photonics. Instead of trying to force hBN to behave like traditional materials like diamond or silicon carbide, the team leveraged its unique strength: its ability to be twisted and reassembled like atomic-scale LEGO. If this technique can be scaled and integrated into devices, it could accelerate the development of practical quantum technologies by giving engineers a simple, powerful way to control single-photon sources on demand. How important do you think precise control over quantum light sources will be for building real-world quantum computers and networks?

🚨 SOUTH KOREAN SCIENTISTS JUST CREATED HOLLOW SILICON NANOTUBES THAT TRAP HEAT AND TURN WASTE ENERGY INTO ELECTRICITY. Researchers at POSTECH have developed a new hollow silicon nanotube structure that dramatically reduces thermal conductivity. By turning solid nanowires into microscopic pipes, they trapped heat-carrying particles (phonons) inside the tubes, cutting thermal conductivity by 70% compared to solid wires. Even when both structures had the same surface area, the hollow nanotubes still ran 33% cooler. This phonon localization effect previously thought to require extreme cold or exotic materials was achieved at near-room temperature using simple silicon nanotubes. Why this matters: • Waste heat from data centers, EV batteries, factories, and electronics is currently lost this could capture and convert it into usable electricity • The technology uses abundant, cheap silicon instead of rare and expensive materials like bismuth and tellurium • It’s highly compatible with existing semiconductor manufacturing, making large-scale production more realistic • It solves a long-standing problem: silicon is great for chips but terrible for thermoelectric energy conversion The deeper implication: This breakthrough shows that clever nanoscale engineering can unlock new capabilities from ordinary materials. By controlling how heat moves at the atomic level, researchers are opening a path to more efficient energy recovery systems without relying on scarce resources. As AI and computing power keep growing, finding ways to recycle the massive amounts of waste heat they generate will become increasingly important. How significant do you think waste-heat recovery technologies like this could become in the next decade? Follow for more frontier materials science and energy innovation.

The Trump administration is rounding up federally protected wild horses and selling them for as little as $25 through a legal loophole that strips away their protections and can send them into the slaughter pipeline. Project 2025 explicitly called for giving the government authority to “dispose” of wild horses this way. And as of May 2026, more than 58,000 wild horses remain in federal holding. In 2025, the Bureau of Land Management more than doubled the number of wild horses it sold, to roughly 3,700. Some of those horses later turned up at auctions frequented by slaughter buyers.
