The Nobel Prize in physics goes to Francis Halzen, who figured out how to turn a cubic kilometer of Antarctic ice into an enormous neutrino detector. The resulting IceCube experiment is now studying extreme events across the universe. Remarkable, mind-expanding research. https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/physics/2026/press-release/ #science #tech #nature #Nobel

The whole foundation of generative AI is built on colonial frameworks i.e systems ran by colonialst institutions/companies, designed to extract labour and erase authentic knowledge. ‘AI’ is simply the latest tool of extraction of wealth and labour from marginalized and working-class people. So it won’t matter how much people ask for ‘ethical’ AI legislation. That system is rotten to the very core, and it frankly needs to be burned to the ground along with every other system of oppression. #tech #AI #colonialism
