A provocative theory gaining traction in astrophysics suggests that ancient, atom-sized black holes may be quietly drifting through our planet—and even through our bodies—without leaving a trace. These objects, known as primordial black holes (PBHs), are theorized remnants from the Big Bang, and some scientists believe they could account for the unseen mass that makes up most of the universe. The startling idea, while it might sound like science fiction, is rooted in a growing body of theoretical and experimental research. If proven, it could rewrite what we know about the universe’s formation, its hidden structure, and the elusive nature…

First-run syndication When “Star Trek” kicked off in 1966, it launched an expansive franchise that developed into multiple television series, 14 feature films, video games, novels, comics, and so much more. The earliest “Star Trek” episodes often dealt with sad and serious topics related to societal issues of the era. Because of this, so much of “Star Trek” is allegorical of issues surrounding gender, sexuality, race relations, politics, and war. That’s not what you might call “feel-good,” but even the original series didn’t remain serious throughout its run. There have…

Icaro Labs’ answers were as stylish as their LLM prompts. “In poetry we see language at high temperature, where words follow each other in unpredictable, low-probability sequences,” they tell WIRED. “In LLMs, temperature is a parameter that controls how predictable or surprising the…
