Full Tech Ahead

 It’s hard to ignore the contradiction at the heart of modern computing: We build ever-more robust AI systems while burning more energy to run them. As generative AI booms and cloud usage expands, data centers expand and more electricity is needed. With each leap in intelligence, we double down on a system that threatens to overheat globally. So what if the future of computing wasn’t silicon? What...

It’s jarring to think that in an age of drones and robotics, we still have people dangling from heights to do work that could kill them. Every time a worker scales a skyscraper or repaints a bridge, there’s this unspoken gamble with their life, just to keep things running or looking clean. And while the bravery is real, so is the risk—one mistake, one gust of wind, and everything can change. It ma...
