Don’t screw this up, Marvel The Verge

Aug. 4, 2026, 11:20 p.m.

Analysis Comics Entertainment

In less than a week, Spider-Man: Brand New Day raked in $1 billion worldwide and had the biggest box office opening weekend in Hollywood history. The feature has been a reminder of why Sony is probably never going to give up the Spider-Man film rights, and highlighted how Marvel Studios was smart to strike a deal to bring the character into its own films. But as successful as Brand New Day has been, the larger MCU has been stuck in a confounding slump for the past few years. And while this latest Spider-Man movie was truly excellent, it’s not necessarily a sign that Marvel has figured out how to get things back on track. Don’t screw this up, Marvel Despite Spider-Man: Brand New Day’s success, the MCU is on shaky ground. Don’t screw this up, Marvel Despite Spider-Man: Brand New Day’s success, the MCU is on shaky ground. Though Brand New Day’s current box office is undeniably impressive, it’s not exactly surprising when you take a beat to remember how consistently well Sony and Marvel’s recent live-action Spider-Man projects have performed in the past. Both Spider-Man: Homecoming and No Way Home cleared the $100 million mark during their opening weekends, and it only took Far From Home six days to pull in $185 million. What’s different here is how quickly Brand New Day has shattered records and cemented itself as one of Marvel and Sony’s most fruitful collaborations. The film’s a testament to the fact that people do still have an appetite for big-screen comic book spectacle when the stars align just right. But the things that make this latest Spider-Man project work so well haven’t been present in the Sony-free parts of Marvel’s interconnected universe. Editor’s note: This post contains Spider-Man: Brand New Day spoilers. Even though Jon Watts’ Spider-Man trilogy eventually started mucking around in the multiverse, those films told relatively self-contained stories that were focused on building a grounded world around Tom Holland’s Peter Parker. Taking that approach highlighted the character’s evolution as a solo hero and made it interesting whenever he got roped into situations with the Avengers. Brand New Day feels like director Destin Daniel Cretton and cowriters Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers striking a strong balance between Sony’s solo Spider-Man movies and Marvel’s larger crossover events. There are a handful of classic Spider-Man rogues in the mix, like John Bernthal’s Punisher and Michael Mando’s Scorpion, who get their fair share of bombastic action sequences. Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk is running around too, but Brand New Day’s story is really about Peter dealing with the emotional consequences of erasing himself from the world’s memory. As ridiculous as that all might sound (especially to non-comics fans), they’re details that Sony and Marvel’s previous Spider-Man collaborations laid the groundwork for. You could watch Watts’ trilogy and go into Brand New Day mostly understanding what’s at stake and how characters got to where they are emotionally. The MCU has struggled to maintain that kind of narrative cohesion during its sprawling Multiverse Saga, which began with WandaVision and will end with Avengers: Secret Wars. Marvel has been trying to keep far more plates spinning with its shared universe of films and series compared to Sony, which just pumped the brakes on making Spider-Man spinoff movies. But the mixed reactions to trailers for the studio’s next big feature makes it seem like people might not exactly be excited about what’s coming next. Avengers: Doomsday will bring most of Marvel’s heroes together once again to fight a version of Doctor Doom portrayed by Robert Downey Jr. The movie will probably use the multiverse to explain why Doctor Doom looks exactly like Iron Man, and it will definitely bring a handful of the live-action 20th Century Studios X-Men to the MCU. Marvel is clearly using Doomsday and next year’s Avengers: Secret Wars to put a period on the Multiverse Saga and start fresh after years of the franchise being too unwieldy. The films and Downey Jr.’s rehiring are also Marvel’s way of moving on from the Kang-filled future Marvel gave up on after jettisoning Jonathan Majors. Kevin Feige has been open about new iterations of the X-Men being key to Marvel’s plans for the future. But if the studio wants audiences to really become invested in Charles Xavier and his students, it would do well to lean into some of Brand New Day’s strongest beats. Rather than introducing Sadie Sink’s Jean Grey as a charming telepath, Brand New Day presents the character as a teenager willing to destroy anyone who gets in her way as she searches for her sister. Both of the Greys are mutants with natural abilities that make them dangerous, but what pushes Jean to deadly violence is the way the government is hunting them down in hopes of weaponizing them. By framing Jean as one of its villains, Brand New Day both keeps its story relatively grounded and gives you a way of understanding how the MCU is touching on classic elements of X-Men comics lore. Jean might not want to hurt innocent people, but she does in a very public way, and it’s easy to imagine her actions becoming the basis for human-mutant tensions going forward. Brand New Day’s ability to tap into those ideas without feeling like a stealth X-Men movie is one of the more impressive things about it. And now that Spider-Man has given us a promising taste of the MCU’s new mutants, Marvel has a chance to keep audiences hooked if it doesn’t drop the ball like Fox.

Senators demand crackdown on wildfire "prediction markets" Arstechnica

Aug. 4, 2026, 9:52 p.m.

Policy polymarket prediction markets

Several US senators have written a letter to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), inquiring about the agency’s “plans to crack down on prediction markets” that offer “contracts for individuals to bet on wildfires.” “Offering bets on destructive wildfires threatens to minimize communities’ suffering, all so the rich and powerful can profit,” wrote the group of senators, who represent Oregon, California, Nevada, Minnesota, and New Hampshire. The document specifically cites that Polymarket hosted bets in January 2025 on the wildfires in Los Angeles, and it mentions another website which specifically accepts “simulated bets” exclusively on California wildfires. “There’s also the heightened risk—according to state and local fire officials—that individuals could be tempted to commit arson in order to make sure their bets are successful,” the letter continues. “By offering contracts on fires, prediction market sites run the risk of encouraging people to influence fires that have already started, creating additional concerns around public safety and insider trading.” The public letter, which was issued Monday, comes as active wildfires continue to burn in significant parts of the Pacific Northwest. On Tuesday, the Spokane County Sheriff’s Office announced the arrest of an arson suspect who is believed to have started one of the blazes currently threatening Spokane, Washington, and the surrounding area. Several hundred buildings have already been destroyed, and approximately one quarter of the city’s population has recently been ordered to evacuate. The CFTC did not immediately respond to Ars’ request for comment. Kalshi is one of the major prediction markets. Kalshi spokesperson Elisabeth Diana told Ars by email that the company does not allow such wildfire markets “because they create perverse incentives.”

Trump killed the Digital Equity Act, but US was forced to bring part of it back Arstechnica

Policy broadband digital equity act

The Trump administration said it will reinstate a broadband grant program to comply with a court ruling that prevented it from fully ignoring the Digital Equity Act enacted by Congress in 2021. The US government said in a court filing that it plans to start taking applications for grants in December. However, the Trump administration won a partial victory because the judge ruled the government can’t allocate money based on the race or ethnicity of people who would benefit from grants. The government program can still award broadband grants based on factors such as income, age, and disability. The Digital Equity Act of 2021 provided $2.75 billion for three grant programs aimed at closing gaps in broadband access. The Biden administration started awarding $60 million in planning grants to states in 2022, and in 2024 it started taking applications to distribute the rest of the $2.75 billion. Trump announced in May 2025 that he would end the grant programs, claiming the Digital Equity Act itself is racist and unconstitutional. Trump and federal government officials were sued in US District Court for the District of Columbia by the National Digital Inclusion Alliance (NDIA), an advocacy group that was in line to obtain $25.7 million in grant money before the Trump administration ended the program. The NDIA lawsuit is specifically about the Digital Equity Competitive Grant Program, which accounts for $1.25 billion of the total authorized by the Digital Equity Act. A separate grant program for states and territories accounted for the other $1.44 billion, but there’s no indication that it will be restarted. It doesn’t appear that anyone sued the Trump administration over the discontinued state grants. “Massive win,” but also a loss The NDIA called the revival of the Digital Equity Competitive Grant Program “a massive win for the communities we serve,” though it would have to submit a new application for funding because the Trump administration is starting the process from scratch. In January 2025, the Biden administration selected the NDIA for a $25.7 million grant to provide low- and no-cost devices and assist people in accessing low-cost broadband. The Trump administration later terminated the grant, the NDIA lawsuit said.

The company’s data center revenue has more than doubled, hitting $6.7 billion. At the same time, AMD’s gaming revenue fell 31 percent compared to last year, to $779 million, as price hikes and component shortages slowed sales for the Xbox Series X / S, PS5, and Valve’s Steam Deck. “Revenue increased 50 percent year-over-year to a record $11.5 billion, driven by continued strength in our Data Center business, which represented 58% of company revenue in the quarter,” wrote AMD CFO Jean Hu. Its overall PC and gaming business revenue grew six percent compared to last year, with Client revenue up 23 percent thanks to Ryzen processor sales. “AI is driving a significant expansion in demand for compute across all of our markets, and our leadership portfolio and growing customer visibility position us exceptionally well to capture this expanding opportunity and deliver substantial revenue and earnings growth in the years ahead,” said AMD CEO Lisa Su.

SpaceX has more neocloud revenue The Verge

Aug. 4, 2026, 8:47 p.m.

AI Business Science

SpaceX’s AI revenue grew more than three times to $2.6 billion from the year before, mostly because of deals that the company made to provide compute to other AI companies, according to SpaceX’s quarterly earnings. The AI division, which the company said in its documents to go public was the source of most of its value, lost $1.5 billion this quarter, slightly less than in the same quarter last year. SpaceX has more neocloud revenue But it’s still losing money overall. But it’s still losing money overall. SpaceX made deals with Anthropic in May and Google in June to provide compute to the other two AI companies, putting it in competition with other neoclouds such as CoreWeave. The increased presence in AI is also driving the company to spend more — capital expenditures reached $18.37 billion. SpaceX is still losing money, but the loss this quarter narrowed to $143 million dollars. Elon Musk’s grandiose plans — data centers in space, an addressable user market of more than the US GDP — don’t just come with a big price tag in AI. The costs of developing technology in its space division also rose by $389 million from the year before, with Starship as the primary driver of spending. Starship is key to Musk’s plan to expand its connectivity business, the only profitable part of the company. Starship has to be able to launch heavier versions of the satellites that make its Starlink internet business profitable. Some of these satellites have already been manufactured, and in today’s documents, SpaceX said it had launched 20 of them. It’s not clear how far away the full deployment — of 60 satellites at once — is. Though SpaceX beat analyst estimates, according to Bloomberg, its shares continued their decline after an initial pop of enthusiasm.

Texas halts data center connections to power grid amid overwhelming demand Arstechnica

Aug. 4, 2026, 8:34 p.m.

AI ai data centers AI infrastructure

Nowhere is the US data center boom bigger than in Texas. But less than a year after declaring Texas the “epicenter of AI development,” Governor Greg Abbott has declared a moratorium on all new power grid connections for data centers—at least until developers provide more information about their projects’ potential impacts on the grid and communities. The Republican governor directed regulators in an August 3 announcement at the Public Utility Commission of Texas and the grid operators at the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) to perform a “comprehensive verification and audit of all data centers advancing through ERCOT’s interconnection process.” As an independent system operator, ERCOT oversees a power grid that operates separately from the rest of the United States and provides services to most of Texas. Texas has aggressively courted data center development with its availability of cheap land and relatively abundant energy resources, along with offering state incentives, like tax breaks and fewer regulations. That puts the state on track to surpass Virginia in becoming the largest US data center market. But the recent AI boom and the accompanying frenzy of data center development threaten to overwhelm the Texas grid on paper, despite the state leading the country in adding new power generation. The ERCOT interconnection queue currently includes more than 1,800 projects representing over 474 gigawatts’ worth of requests to connect to the Texas grid—more than five times Texas’ record peak electricity demand—and about 90 percent of those power connection requests come from data centers. “That unprecedented load growth could endanger the reliability and stability of the Texas electric grid,” according to the statement from Abbott’s office. Many of those data center projects may never materialize for various reasons. But ERCOT has still forecast that data center demand and other factors could drive statewide electricity demand to double the current demand record by 2032, according to The Texas Tribune.

Germany's Hugo Boss' Q2 sales fall 10%; gross margin strengthens Fibre2fashion

Aug. 4, 2026, 8:23 p.m.

Fashion

For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, Hugo Boss reported group sales of €905 million (~$1.12 billion), marking a 10 per cent decline year on year (YoY). The gross profit stood at €587 million (~$716.6 million), with gross margin expanding by 200 basis points to 64.9 per cent. Operating profit (earnings before interest and tax, EBIT) fell 28 per cent to €59 million (~$72.02 million), resulting in an EBIT margin of 6.5 per cent. “The second quarter marked another important step in the execution of CLAIM 5 TOUCHDOWN, as we continue to strengthen our business and lay the foundation for sustainable, profitable growth. Sales remained impacted by our strategic realignment and a challenging external environment. But the strategy is already translating into tangible benefits and creating a structurally stronger Hugo Boss,” said Daniel Grieder, chief executive officer at Hugo Boss. The net income attributable to equity holders dropped 29 per cent to €33 million (~$40.25 million), while basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) declined to €0.49 (~$0.57) from €0.68 (~$0.78). Operating expenses decreased by 4 per cent to €528 million, and free cash flow before leases reached €105 million (~$128.0 million). “The gross margin improved significantly, inventories declined, and free cash flow generation remained strong. These results confirm that we are in control of what matters,” added Grieder. Regionally, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) sales dropped 14 per cent YoY to €532 million (~$649.7 million), reflecting softer demand in key markets such as Germany, the UK, and France, as well as lower tourism flows and reduced store traffic in the Middle East due to geopolitical tensions, Hugo Boss said in a press release. The Americas proved comparatively more resilient, with sales flat at €236 million (~$288.9 million), down just 1 per cent currency-adjusted. Asia/Pacific sales fell 6 per cent to €116 million (~$142.77 million), impacted by lower revenues in China and Southeast Asia. By brand, Boss sales declined 9 per cent to €792 million (~$966.6 million), while HUGO sales dropped 14 per cent to €113 million (~$137.8 million). By channel, retail revenues declined 9 per cent to €565 million (~$690.7 million), while wholesale fell 10 per cent to €320 million (~$391.0 million). Revenues from self-managed digital channels decreased 18 per cent to €64 million (~$78.4 million), as the company maintained its focus on full-price sales and selective optimisation of its global store network. The gross margin advanced to 64.9 per cent from 62.9 per cent a year earlier, driven by sourcing efficiencies, improved pricing, and a higher share of full-price sales. Operating expenses were reduced by 4 per cent, mainly due to lower selling and marketing expenses, although as a percentage of sales, operating expenses increased to 58.4 per cent (up 360 basis points), reflecting operating deleverage on lower revenues. EBIT margin decreased to 6.5 per cent from 8.1 per cent, and EBITDA margin slipped to 16.4 per cent from 17.1 per cent. Inventories declined by 15 per cent YoY, improving to 23.1 per cent of group sales, supporting strong cash generation and financial flexibility. Hugo Boss reaffirmed its FY26 outlook, expecting currency-adjusted group sales to decline in the mid- to high-single digits and EBIT to range between €300 million and €350 million (~$366.9-428.2 million). The company remains focused on profitability, inventory discipline, and cash generation, while maintaining a cautious view on global consumer demand amid ongoing macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainties. Capital expenditure for 2026 is anticipated to be around the upper end of the 3–4 per cent of group sales target range, added the release. Fibre2Fashion News Desk

Telegram CEO says an extortionist planted CSAM in a chat to get it pulled from the App Store The Verge

Aug. 4, 2026, 7:11 p.m.

Apple Apps News

Telegram CEO Pavel Durov blames an extortionist for planting child sexual abuse material (CSAM) in a public chat to get the app temporarily removed from Apple’s App Store on Monday night. “Apple removed Telegram from the App Store before contacting us,” Durov says in a post on X. “This creates a potential systemic risk for every mobile app that hosts user-generated content. If an app used by more than a billion people can be removed from the App Store without prior warning, any app can be.” Telegram CEO says an extortionist planted CSAM in a chat to get it pulled from the App Store Pavel Durov claims attackers post illegal content and manipulate reports to ‘trigger the removal of legitimate communities.’ Pavel Durov claims attackers post illegal content and manipulate reports to ‘trigger the removal of legitimate communities.’ Durov adds, “Extortionists have found a way to manipulate Apple into overreacting.” Apple didn’t immediately respond to The Verge’s request for comment. Russia recently issued an arrest warrant for Durov, claiming the platform facilitates terrorism, and in 2024 he was arrested in France on charges including enabling illegal transactions. “These extortionists use automated accounts to plant illegal content in public groups and then report it directly to Apple, attempting to trigger the removal of legitimate communities whose owners refused to pay them,” writes Durov. Durov says that the attacker in this incident “inserted AI-modified illegal content by editing an old message in an active group chat,” preventing members of the group from seeing or reporting it. Here’s Durov’s full statement: Last night Apple briefly removed Telegram from the AppStore because a user had planted illegal porn in a public chat. Telegram was restored within hours. But I want to explain what happened — to warn other app developers and help protect online communities from similar attacks. Because Telegram quickly removes illegal content from public groups using all kinds of moderation tools, the attacker had to resort to a technical trick. He inserted AI-modified illegal content by editing an old message in an active group chat. As a result the content was effectively hidden from the group’s members, preventing them from seeing/reporting it. The attacker was a takedown extortionist: someone who demands ransom from group owners in exchange for not targeting their communities. These extortionists use automated accounts to plant illegal content in public groups and then report it directly to Apple, attempting to trigger the removal of legitimate communities whose owners refused to pay them. From a practical standpoint, illegal pornographic content in Telegram’s public groups is not a systemic problem. Our moderation is effective. The fact that attackers must resort to backdated, effectively invisible content and other technical tricks proves this. ⚠️ However, there are two important lessons here for app developers and online communities: — Extortionists have found a way to manipulate Apple into overreacting. Apple removed Telegram from the App Store before contacting us. This creates a potential systemic risk for every mobile app that hosts user-generated content. If an app used by more than a billion people can be removed from the App Store without prior warning, any app can be. — The tactics used by takedown extortionists are evolving, putting communities across social platforms at risk. Telegram has extensive experience identifying the tricks used by coordinated reporting gangs and protecting legitimate communities (even when doing so risks our own app being temporarily removed from the App Store). Other platforms may not be equally prepared. Stay vigilant! ☝️

« Nous sommes à un tournant historique » : l’IA commence à prendre les commandes dans l’espace Futura-science

Séries d'été Le grand basculement spatial intelligence artificielle

Partout où le regard se pose, l'intelligence artificielle est déjà là, discrète, omniprésente, et de plus en plus indispensable. Dans les hôpitaux, elle détecte des cancers invisibles à l'œil humain, lit des scanners en quelques secondes et prédit des complications post-opératoires avant même que le chirurgien ne referme sa plaie. Dans les salles de marché, elle anticipe les fluctuations boursières en quelques millisecondes, exécutant des stratégies d'investissement trop complexes et trop rapides pour tout esprit humain. Dans les studios de création, elle génère des œuvres musicales, des scénarios de films et des campagnes publicitaires entières à partir d'une simple instruction. Dans les véhicules autonomes, elle traite simultanément les données de dizaines de capteurs pour naviguer dans un environnement urbain imprévisible, à une vitesse de réaction que nos réflexes ne pourront jamais atteindre. Dans les écoles et les universités, elle adapte en temps réel les parcours pédagogiques à chaque élève, identifiant ses lacunes et ses forces avec une précision qu'aucun professeur, aussi attentionné soit-il, ne pourrait égaler seul. Dans nos foyers, elle personnalise nos expériences quotidiennes avec une précision déconcertante et dans les usines, elle optimise des chaînes de production entières sans intervention humaine, détectant les anomalies avant qu'elles ne surviennent et recalibrant les processus à la milliseconde. Alimentés par des quantités gigantesques d'informations, les grands modèles de langage ont appris à résumer, traduire, coder, argumenter, mais leur intelligence reste cantonnée au domaine des signes. C’est précisément cette limite que les « world models » cherchent à dépasser.... Lire la suite Dans chacun de ces domaines, pourtant, une constante demeure : l'humain reste dans la boucle. L'IA analyse, modélise, recommande. Ce sont les humains qui, in fine, décident. Lorsque des vies sont en jeu ou que l'issue d'une x@mission en dépend, la confiance accordée à la machine reste conditionnelle. L'IA propose, l'humain valide. Et si, dans la plupart des cas, cette validation n'est qu'une formalité, tant la recommandation s'avère juste, la supervision humaine demeure, pour l'heure, une ligne que l'on n'a pas encore franchie. Et puis, il y a l'espace. Un terrain qui ne ressemble à aucun autre et qui, depuis quelques années, est devenu l'un des laboratoires les plus exigeants de l'intelligence artificielle. Là où les distances se comptent en millions de kilomètres, où les communications accusent des délais de plusieurs minutes, où chaque décision peut être la dernière, l'IA n'est plus un outil parmi d'autres. Elle devient une nécessité absolue. Non pas parce qu'elle est parfaite - elle ne l'est pas -, mais parce que dans ce vide hostile et silencieux, elle est souvent la seule intelligence disponible en temps réel. C'est précisément cette frontière que l'espace met à l'épreuve : un environnement où l'IA ne peut plus se permettre de simplement conseiller, et où l'humain ne peut pas toujours se permettre d'attendre. Ce qui relevait encore récemment de la science-fiction, tels que des sondes pensant par elles-mêmes, des habitats lunaires gérés de manière autonome, des robots construisant des infrastructures sur Mars avant même qu'un humain n'y pose le pied, est en train de devenir une feuille de route concrète, jalonnée d'étapes précises et de technologies déjà en développement. Ou déjà en opération. Un tournant historique C'est pour explorer cette transformation que nous avons rencontré le Dr. Paul Sanjoy, chercheur à l'Université Rice et spécialiste reconnu de l'intelligence artificielle appliquée aux missions spatiales. Sa conviction est sans équivoque : « nous sommes à un tournant historique, celui où l'exploration spatiale bascule de missions contrôlées par l'Homme vers des missions pensées par les machines ». Une affirmation qui déjà se vérifie dans les faits, du moins pour les missions sans équipage humain, où l'IA opère aujourd'hui en totale autonomie. Lorsque des vies humaines sont en jeu, en revanche, « la machine conseille encore là où l'Homme décide ». Mais cette frontière pourrait ne pas tenir longtemps. Avec la rapidité fulgurante des progrès en matière d'IA, notamment les avancées en IA explicable, qui permettent de mieux comprendre et donc de mieux faire confiance aux décisions de la machine, « l'autonomie totale n'est plus une hypothèse lointaine. Elle pourrait devenir, dans un avenir proche, une réalité y compris là où les enjeux sont les plus élevés », s'enthousiasme-t-il. Ce que le Dr. Sanjoy décrit n'est pas une évolution linéaire. C'est une série de fractures. Non pas progressives, non pas timides, mais des ruptures successives, chacune plus profonde que la précédente. Trois ruptures majeures La première, c'est « le passage du robot-outil au coéquipier cognitif, explique-t-il. Pendant des décennies, nous avons envoyé dans l'espace des machines qui faisaient exactement ce qu'on leur disait. Demain, nous enverrons des partenaires capables de penser avec nous et, parfois, à notre place. C'est un changement de nature, pas de degré. » La deuxième rupture touche à l'autonomie opérationnelle totale, là où aucune voix humaine ne peut arriver à temps. « Fini le temps où chaque manœuvre devait traverser des millions de kilomètres d'espace vide avant d'être exécutée, poursuit-il. L'IA décide. L'IA agit. En temps réel, seule, là où aucune voix humaine ne peut la rejoindre. On ne pilote plus depuis la Terre, on fait confiance à une intelligence embarquée. » Quant à la troisième rupture, elle est peut-être la plus vertigineuse : une science qui cesse d'être guidée par l'humain pour être guidée par la machine elle-même, capable de formuler ses propres hypothèses, de concevoir ses propres expériences, et peut-être, un jour, de détecter les premières traces de vie ailleurs dans l'Univers. « Ce n'est plus l'humain qui pose les questions et confie les calculs à la machine, conclut-il. C'est la machine qui observe, qui s'interroge, et qui trace elle-même les chemins de la découverte. Nous sommes en train de passer d'une science guidée par l'humain à une science guidée par l'IA. Et ça, c'est philosophiquement immense. » Trois ruptures qui ne sont pas de simples évolutions techniques, « mais un changement de paradigme complet dans notre manière de concevoir, de conduire et de vivre l'exploration spatiale », tient à souligner le Dr. Sanjoy. Chaque année, des entreprises et des agences spatiales lancent des centaines de fusées dans l'espace, et ce nombre devrait croître considérablement avec les missions ambitieuses vers la Lune, Mars et au-delà. Mais ces rêves reposent sur un défi crucial : la propulsion, c'est-à-dire les méthodes utilisées pour propulser les fusées et les engins spatiaux. Pour rendre les voyages interplanétaires plus rapides, plus sûrs et plus efficaces, les scientifiques ont besoin de percées technologiques dans le domaine de la propulsion. L'intelligence artificielle est l'une des technologies qui a commencé à apporter certaines de ces avancées indispensables.... Lire la suite Pour comprendre l'ampleur de cette transformation, il faut prendre conscience que l'IA est « déjà à l'œuvre dans l'espace, et ses contributions actuelles redéfinissent déjà profondément ce que la science et l'exploration peuvent accomplir », insiste le chercheur. Non pas en remplaçant l'intelligence humaine, mais en « l'augmentant jusqu'à des niveaux qu'aucune équipe de chercheurs, si brillante soit-elle, ne pourrait atteindre seule », précise-t-il. Le Dr. Paul Sanjoy décrypte, en quatre volets, les trois ruptures qui redéfinissent l'exploration spatiale à l'ère de l'intelligence artificielle. © Paul Sanjoy Ce que cet entretien vous réserve En quatre parties, nous vous proposons de suivre ce fil. D'abord, ce que l'IA fait déjà, aujourd'hui, à bord des missions en cours - une réalité opérationnelle souvent sous-estimée. Ensuite, ce qu'elle s'apprête à accomplir dans les deux à quinze prochaines années : maintenance prédictive, autosuffisance sur d'autres mondes, médecine autonome à des millions de kilomètres de tout secours. Puis ce qu'elle deviendra à long terme, quand elle cessera d'être un outil pour devenir l'acteur principal de l'exploration : des essaims de robots coordonnés par IA, des sondes interstellaires entièrement autonomes, des intelligences capables de découvrir ce que nous n'avons pas encore imaginé chercher. Et tout au long de ce parcours, les défis et les limites que le chercheur lui-même n'esquive pas : le manque de données, l'exigence d'une fiabilité absolue, les questions éthiques et politiques qu'une autonomie croissante des machines ne manquera pas de soulever. À mesure que les systèmes d’intelligence artificielle gagnent en puissance et en autonomie, leur fonctionnement devient de plus en plus difficile à saisir. Des chercheurs mettent en garde contre une tendance qui pourrait compliquer notre capacité à garder le contrôle sur ces technologies.... Lire la suite Mais que fait-elle, concrètement, dès aujourd'hui ? Comment opère-t-elle, dans quelles conditions, avec quelles limites ? Et jusqu'où ses capacités actuelles permettent-elles déjà d'aller ? C'est à ces questions que la suite de cet entretien s'attache à répondre, en suivant le Dr. Sanjoy au cœur de ce que l'IA spatiale accomplit, silencieusement, méthodiquement, et souvent de manière stupéfiante, à l'heure où nous parlons. Au bout de ce parcours, une question s'impose. Celle que le Dr. Sanjoy pose en filigrane, et qu'il faudra bien, un jour, affronter directement : si une intelligence artificielle peut explorer, découvrir, décider et peut-être même s'interroger, que restera-t-il de spécifiquement humain dans l'aventure spatiale ? Ce n'est pas une question rhétorique. C'est la prochaine frontière. À suivre : - Partie 2 : Ce que l'intelligence artificielle fait déjà dans l'espace ; - Partie 3 : L'IA spatiale : ce qui se prépare et qui va tout changer ; - Partie 4 : Le futur lointain : l'IA comme acteur principal de l'exploration.
