The growing debate over whether artificial intelligence should mimic human thinking has been reignited by a recent study by researcher Soumya Banerjee. The work questions long-held anthropocentric assumptions and argues for broader perspectives on intelligence beyond human cognition. The paper, When Planes Fly Better than Birds: Should AIs Think like Humans?, was published in the journal Proceedings. Drawing on philosophical, engineering, and ethical perspectives, Banerjee compares AI’s trajectory with the evolution of aviation, suggesting that just as airplanes surpass birds without replicating their biology, AI might achieve intelligence without mirroring human thought. Do machines need to think like humans to…

Key Points The FCC initiates this proceeding to protect the nation’s communications infrastructure from foreign threats by proposing to expand foreign ownership disclosure requirements for covered Commission-issued licenses and authorizations. The proposals are intended to give the Commission, and the public, a new and comprehensive view of entities holding licenses and authorizations in the communications sector that are subject to the ownership, jurisdiction, direction, or control of a foreign adversary. Foreign Adversary Ownership NPRM On May 22, 2025, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) unanimously voted to adopt a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) that proposes to require entities…

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has released a notice of proposed rulemaking on control of FCC-regulated businesses by “foreign adversaries.” If the FCC adopts these rules, nearly every entity that is subject to FCC regulation could be subject to new ownership reporting requirements, including companies that do not regularly report ownership today, such as multichannel video programming distributors, companies holding equipment authorizations and entities with private radio licenses, like those used for communication in factories or office buildings or by fleet managers. Penalties for failing to comply with the reporting requirements could include fines and revocation of licenses or other…

The “Gutfeld!” gang had a good laugh at Florida Rep. Anna Paulina Luna’s claims on a recent episode of Joe Rogan’s podcast that she’s seen evidence of “energy things,” or aliens, or UFOs, or “interdimensional beings.” Whatever we’re calling them these days, the Fox News late-night show still isn’t buying it. Luna brought up the topic on Wednesday’s “The Joe Rogan Experience,” a clip from which “Gutfeld!” played Friday night: “They call them interdimensional beings,” Luna said. “Very credible people have reported that there have been a movement outside time and space. Have I seen a portal? No. Have I…

The newly discovered interstellar object 3I/ATLAS could be a piece of “possibly hostile” extraterrestrial technology in disguise, according to controversial research from a small group of scientists, including a renowned alien-hunting astronomer.Their paper, which has not been peer-reviewed, echoes similar claims previously made about ‘Oumuamua, the first-ever cosmic interloper that was discovered in 2017.But experts have told Live Science that the new claims are “nonsense” and “insulting,” and insist that the available evidence points toward the object being completely natural. You may like 3I/ATLAS was discovered on July 1 barreling toward the sun at more than 130,000 mph (210,000 km/h),…

In 1983, the Central Intelligence Agency asked U.S. Army Lt. Col. Wayne M. McDonnell to report on a possible way for people to convert the energy of their mind and body into a laser beam that can transcend spacetime. Called the Gateway Process, the procedure claimed to help people access the intuitive knowledge of the universe, as well as travel in time and commune with other-dimensional beings. McDonnell’s 28-page report, declassified in 2003, outlines the Gateway Process’s “scientific” underpinnings and provides instructions and technical assistance.For many, hearing about this report was like finding out that the CIA tested clairvoyance as…

The remains of the Lapedo Child, found in Portugal in 1998, showed signs of being both Neanderthal and human, as later confirmed by DNA.New techniques in radiocarbon dating allowed scientists to date the remains to roughly 28,000 years ago.The fresh dating timeline puts the remains roughly 40,000 years beyond Neanderthal extinction. Neanderthal genes seem to have hung around long after Neanderthals themselves did, as new scientific dating of the famed Lapedo Child remains shows that remains of a child with both human and Neanderthal features was from tens of thousands of years after when the latter went extinct. The Lapedo…

It was July 4th, 1944 in London and the end of the war in Europe was finally in sight. The previous month, the Allies had liberated Rome and landed in France. In the east, the Soviet Army was rapidly advancing, crushing the German Army Group Center in Belarus and pushing towards Polish territory. Nazi Germany was far from finished and London was throughout the summer of 1944 being pounded by German V1 flying bombs, but the writing was clearly on the wall.As these events unfolded, the commander-in-chief of the Polish armed forces, Gen. Kazimierz Sosnkowski, dispatched a brief report to…
