James Webb Space Telescope

30 years and 10 billion dollars later, the James Webb space telescope was created and finally launched into space. In French Guiana, on the northern coast of South America, it was launched on Christmas day in 2021.

The telescope is 69.54ft x 46.46 ft and has a launch mass of 14,300lb with 2kW of power. The telescope had to be folded up in the rocket's fairing due to its 6.5 meter primary window and tennis court-sized sunshield.

After months of waiting for the telescope to send back photos, NASA received and released its first full color photo captured on July 12, 2022.

The Webb telescope is made to be able to look deep into space to see the earliest galaxies and stars that formed in the universe. Webb is able to give us views of objects that can be 100 times fainter than Hubble can see, due to its mirror being much wider. Hubble is their other older space telescope. This telescope was designed to see the period of time from when objects in the universe first began to form together.

Unfortunately, if something were to happen to the telescope and damage it very badly, it would not be able to return to Earth because of how far away it is, unlike Hubble, which has been repaired a few times already.

Neuralink technology

-Neuralink is basically a chip that goes into your brain. They are aiming to connect the human brain to computers. Its meant to put your thoughts into action. Connecting our brains to computers, we would be smarter and know more information.

It could help diseases like Parkinson's, paralysis, and Alzheimer's. It may enable people with disabilities to communicate or control devices using only their thoughts. Additionally, it could enhance brain functions, and provide new ways to interact with technology. There is surgical risks and safety concerns that also go along with the chip, there is also a risk of excessive bleeding and infection. The chip costs around $10,500 .

The Tesla Model 3 uses cameras and ultrasonic sensors and a radar to drive by itself. There are cameras above the rear license plate, on each door pillar, each front fender, and there are three on the front windshield. The ultrasonic sensors are located in the front and rear bumpers, and the radar is mounted behind the front bumper. It is also equipped with electronically assisted braking and streering systems. The cameras monitor the cars surroundings and detects other vehicles, pedestrians, road markings, and other obstacles like barriers and curbs. the car is also equipped with a cabin camera above the rear view mirror that monitors the drivers attentiveness. When in autopilot the driver is still responsible for being ready to take control of the vehicle at any time.

Robotics and Automation in Surgical Procedures. By 2030, there will be a global shortage of 15 million health workers according to experts. While healthcare remains mostly people-driven, technology can assist health professionals in providing high quality care.

Medical professionals can now conduct surgical procedures with better precision, flexibility, and control with the help of Robotic-Assisted Surgery. RAS is typically associated with minimally invasive surgery, which includes smaller incisions and is less invasive. The benefits of MIS include reduced blood loss, minimized scarring, lower infection risks, and a quicker return to routine.

Robots are tireless and precise, capable of performing complex surgical procedures previously thought impossible.

Artificial Intelligence Lawyer-

The AI lawyers are being used to read over legal documents and suggest whether other, stronger language should be used or if any mistakes are being added. It can also provide legal advice for those who need it.

Some pros of this AI is that it is more budget friendly. Lawyers tend to be extremely pricey so an AI lawyer would cut down majorly on that cost. Another pro is that people may not want to hire a lawyer for a small legal matter and may just want legal advice quickly.

Some cons are that it does not have the human understanding in these legal matters so it may not understand what the person is asking in the legal document. They may also not be able to spot if someone is being screwed over in the document because it can only spot physical mistakes.

Cutting Edge Technology-Any piece of tech that has new features, processes, software, or techniques.

Example- 3D printing is the construction of a three dimensional object and under computer control and material created can make a wide range of things. They are trying to be able to 3D print organs by taking stem cells from the patient and using that to 3D print a fully functioning organ for the patients. If they are successful than they will be able to eliminate wait lists, cut down prices for transplants, and have less risks of organ rejection after the transplant.

Cybersecurity: Cybersecurity is a system that is protecting things online (like in your computer system). Thing's going through networks and databases. It aims to subdue cyber attacks and to protect peoples documents that are personal from being exploited. In 2024 AI has been set to play more of a role in cybersecurity. With AI's capabilities increasing for identifying and predicting cyber attacks.

Handle: The Jumper

Developed by Boston Dynamics, Handle is a robot that exceeds expectations and can do things other robots can't. It combines wheels with legs, allowing it to move at an impressive rate of 9 miles per hour. However, it gets its name from its ability to jump up to 1.2 metres in the air. It can also perform somersaults.

Although its abilities are impressive, Handle: The Jumper isn't just for show. It can easily lift objects of over 100 pounds, and mixed with its mobility and navigation, it is a potential game-changer in working industries, and many predict that it will be seen in these areas in the coming years (ListVerse.Com).

Enlitic; Medical Decision Making AI

This is an up-and-coming project for the medical field. It is an AI computing system that is essentially a computer add-on that doctors and nurses can have. This technology is used to diagnose and problem solve medical issues.

This is done by evaluating and considering all past medical history. This program quickly diagnoses possible health issues, and assists the doctor is decision making and gives a full dialysis of possible health conditions. This is much better than modern technology as very often, doctors misdiagnose, or even cannot decide on a health disease/condition that is the cause of someone's suffering. I believe that this is not meant to replace workers, but assist them and help have more accurate diagnoses.

Enlitic says "At Enlitic, we believe that the power of artificial intelligence can transform healthcare by enabling effective data management and improving clinical workflows."

I predict that one day, AI will gain consciousness and do things they weren't programmed to do. Then, they will cause the end of the world because they can do things at a non-human rate.

# data[].attributes.body
my prediction on the first video, is that they are training the robots to go to war or to fight. they are training them to do parkour in order to be able to overcome any obstacles they may encounter. my prediction on the second video, is that they are going to use the robots to produce soundtrack for movies and games so they don't have to pay humans to do it.

# data[].attributes.body
Both videos make me predict that in the future these robots will be able to take over some human careers/jobs and could also be used for entertainment purposes. I think they are slightly scary though.

# data[].attributes.body
video 1: very unsettling... I predict they will take over the world.

video 2; I was too distracted by the man singing to watch the robot to be honest. I predict that they wont take over the world because the man was far more interesting than that disgusting yellow creature.

# data[].attributes.body
Video 1- The robot has very good balance and very human like movements. It replicates the movements of a human pretty spot on.

Video 2- The robot is copying the moves but is not as human like as the first robot shown, but still copying everything just as well.

# data[].attributes.body
Video 1: The robots could eventually be used entertain people, as a replacement for athletes today.

Video 2: I think this robot won't be replacing a singer or dancer (maybe a musician) because it was quite awkward to watch and he is not half as entertaining as a nice well rounded human.

# data[].attributes.body
That's pretty cool, a prediction is that these may be used for future tasks... Because it was like running around... But in the second video, they use them for a dancing video..

# data[].attributes.body
Video 1:

good balance

Impressive movement for a robot

oddly "human"

Prediction: we're cooked

Video 2:

little goofy

semi-worrying with the range of motion for a steel-dog

Prediction: we're doomed

(in all seriousness: with enough fine-tuning and ironing out kinks they could probably be used in both entertainment and service industries, along with eventually probably ending up like every dystopia with "everyone gets a robot helper".)
