Technically Incorrect offers a slightly twisted take on the tech that's taken over our lives.Enlarge ImageWhere on the dashboard is its moral compass? KAREN BLEIER/AFP/GettyImages I think of morality as a feather that shifts in the wind and occasionally brushes your face delightfully as it falls to earth.I'm still perturbed, however, whether technology has a fine grasp of it. Or whether it can.I'm moved by the news that Uber has launched its driverless vehicles in Pittsburgh. It crossed my mind whether these cars have already been programmed whom to kill if they face a moral dilemma.For example, the car is about to hit another car with three people inside. It can swerve out of the way, but then it'll hit thr...

SolarWinds Villains in sci-fi movies have an advantage over your regular Joe bad guy from off the tough streets of New York. Sci-fi baddies can be cybe etically enhanced, with robotic and other parts adding to their general menacing aura.

ادامه مطلبFrom James Bond to Game of Thrones, the impossible and incredible monasteries of Meteora - CNET
The karst rises from the flatland as if escaping the underworld, violently forced up by something down there. The truth is the opposite. The stark, imposing rocks are what's left after millions of years of weathering take their toll on the surrounding land. Towers of stone form the base, literally and figuratively, for the magic of this place. Somehow, impossibly perched atop these majestic peaks, are buildings. Not just a stone hut, but extensive complexes of beige rock and red roofs. They rise up where the stone ends, is if carved. As you marvel at one, you notice another, and then another. A series of these incredible buildings, made without roads, cranes, or even... stairs. This is Meteora, in central Greece, and it is unlike any place in the world. Here's what the...

ادامه مطلبEat to the beat: Sharks are less scary when they swim to peppy music - CNET
Thanks a lot, Steven Spielberg and John Williams, for forever creeping us out about sharks. Spielberg's 1975 movie "Jaws" wouldn't have been quite as terrifying without Williams' "duunnn dunnn" music, and we all know it. Now a study published Wednesday in the jou al PLOS One has quantified our quivering. Researchers from UC San Diego and Harvard showed 2,100 people a shark clip from the BBC's "Blue Planet" documentary series and either set it to ominous or uplifting music or let it run silently. "Participants who viewed a video clip set to ominous music rated sharks more negatively and less positively than those who watched the same clip set to uplifting music or to silence," the researchers wrote. Why does it matter? Researchers think documentary makers should choose their...

ادامه مطلبWhoops! Norwegian boys ruin 5,000-year-old rock carving by trying to help - CNET
Citizens of the world, stop messing with the art. Earlier this year, a kid in China destroyed a $15,000 Lego statue just an hour after it went on display. And the mangled fresco of Jesus that a Spanish woman awkwardly painted over in 2012 still shows up in memes.Now a pair of Norwegian boys are joining the Roster of Shame. The two saw a 5,000-year-old rock carving of a man on skis on the island of Tro on Norway's west coast and decided it wasn't visible enough, the UK's Telegraph reports. So they took a sharp object and traced over the lines -- and around the lines, and outside the lines, and pretty much made their own scratched-up lines. It's no Potato Jesus, but the Stone Age carving no longer represents its original image.Here's the original, as shown in a tweet from Archaeology magazin...
