After two years of consultation, India has paused its landmark Big Tech regulation bill for fresh market studies — a reset that reveals how hard it is to write rules for markets that change faster than legislation can.
China's models are matching America's best. The gap is closing faster than anyone predicted. India is watching from the sidelines of the most consequential technology race in history.
As research funding experiments with lotteries, science confronts an uncomfortable question: can chance sometimes choose promising ideas better than experts?
Nearly five decades after launch, Voyager 2 still explores interstellar space, but its fading power raises questions about humanity’s future beyond Earth.
The race to build AI infrastructure is producing an unexpected political backlash across the United States. Communities are increasingly challenging data-centre projects over electricity demand, water use, environmental pressures, noise and the question of who actually benefits from these enormous facilities. Meta has now announced a $1 billion fund for comm
Nvidia has joined forces with six major financial institutions to mobilise more than $500 billion in third-party capital for AI computing infrastructure. The initiative reflects a major shift in the AI race: building models is no longer just a technology challenge, but a capital-intensive infrastructure project involving chips, data centres, electricity and
India’s proposed Seed Bill could determine how the country regulates the next generation of agricultural biotechnology. Industry bodies are seeking explicit legal recognition for gene editing, arguing that technologies such as molecular breeding, genomic selection and AI-assisted breeding can accelerate the development of higher-yielding and climate-resilien
Scientists have sequenced the complete genomes of four Asian hornbill species, providing new insights into millions of years of evolutionary history and population decline. The findings offer conservationists a powerful genetic roadmap to better protect some of Asia's most threat
India's digital health revolution is entering a new phase. As artificial intelligence moves from experimental tools to clinical infrastructure, the country's next healthcare transformation will depend on integrating AI into diagnostics, public health, hospitals, and preventive care—while ensuring trust, equity, and robust governance.
