An electric truck has been charged for the first time from a station with a capacity of more than 1 MW

MAN Truck & Bus has demonstrated a prototype of a 1 MW charger developed together with the Technical University of Munich. The system can charge a 40-tonne electric truck in 30 minutes, providing a range of 400 kilometres. This is enough for 4.5 hours of operation. The technology could reduce CO₂ emissions in the transport sector, but the transition to long-distance electric trucking will require significant infrastructure development. It is estimated that such megawatt charging stations would need to be placed every 50 kilometres along major freight routes across Europe.

🔘 Nvidia CEO: Every person will have a personal AI assistant

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang believes that every person will have an AI-powered assistant in the coming years, and that this will change all professions. Artificial intelligence will learn from a person's personal information, learning what they do, say, and write. Such an assistant will know everything about the user's work, habits and preferences and will automate many tasks, increasing productivity. AI will affect all sectors - from science and industry to transport and creative professions.

🇨🇳 No anonymity: China plans to introduce digital ID for all internet users

In China, websites and apps must verify users by their phone numbers, which are tied to personal identification numbers assigned to every adult citizen. The verification process could now become more stringent and centralised. The Chinese government plans to introduce a single digital ID for all online users, motivated by data privacy concerns and anti-fraud efforts. However, experts fear that the innovation will lead to increased state control over the Internet.

🥒 A new enzyme could lead to harmless pesticides

Plant diseases reduce crop yields and cause great economic damage to agriculture. Japanese scientists have uncovered the mechanism by which Xanthomonas bacteria cause diseases in crops. They have discovered a new enzyme responsible for synthesising a substance that suppresses plant immunity. This discovery will make it possible to create new, more effective and safer plant protection products that will specifically target this enzyme and will not harm the environment.

💎 The world's fastest supercomputer has calculated the technology for creating superdiamond

Scientists from the USA have managed to unlock the secret of creating BC8 material, which surpasses diamond in strength. It is assumed that superalmass exists in the cores of large exoplanets. Using a supercomputer Frontier, the researchers found that to obtain BC8 requires melting diamond, subjecting it to extreme conditions - the pressure, 12 million times higher than atmospheric pressure, and a temperature of almost 5000 ° C. The synthesis requires a series of shock waves, the parameters of which have also been determined. The supercomputer has studied all possible configurations of a billion atoms, performing millions of calculations. Now the theory is to be tested in practice at the National Ignition Facility.

🛥 Cylindrical sails can reduce fuel consumption of cargo ships by 90%

Startup CoFlow Jet has developed a wind energy system that looks like several bridge piers placed on a ship. The installation is inspired by Flettner rotors, but has no moving parts. CoFlow Jet cylinders draw air in, compress it with an impeller and release it at a specific angle, creating thrust and pressure imbalance. This technology can reduce ship fuel consumption by up to 90 per cent and is easily adaptable to existing ships.

Area of residence may determine cancer risks and tumour biology

Where people live has long been studied by scientists in terms of disease risks. For example, higher noise levels are associated with higher risks of cardiovascular disease, and polluted air is associated with the development of dementia. Cancer is no exception. Scientists cite evidence that the area of residence does affect cancer risks and can alter the biology of tumours of already advanced cancer.

OpenAI concludes that the GPT-4o model poses a medium threat

OpenAI has released the GPT-4o System Map, a research document that describes the security measures and risk assessments conducted prior to the release of the model. GPT-4o's security checks were based on four categories, and only the manipulation category was found to have a medium risk. The texts generated by the model were in some cases more convincing than human texts. The paper was released amid growing criticism of the company's security standards and calls for greater transparency. While GPT-4o has been vetted by both internal teams and external experts, the primary responsibility for risk assessment remains with OpenAI itself.
