The PlayStation 6 or next-generation Xbox APU may have been revealed, alongside the first details on CPU core configuration and memory bus. In a new video shared on YouTube, Moore’s Law is Dead revealed the existance of an AMD Zen 6 APU called Magnus, featuring a massive 264mm squared graphics die with a 384-bit memory bus, which a wider bus …

Blindness, pneumonia, severe diarrhoea and even death – measles virus infections, especially in children, can have devastating consequences. Fortunately, we have a safe and effective defence. Measles vaccines are estimated to have averted more than 60 million deaths between 2000 and 2023. Yet despite this success, measles cases are rising sharply in the UK and around the world. This global …

Summary: The brain constantly toggles between focusing on external sensory information and internal mental representations like memories, plans, and thoughts. This seamless switching is crucial for adaptive behavior, yet the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Recent research highlights both shared and distinct neural networks for external and internal attention, revealing costs and trade-offs when shifting between them. Understanding these processes …

You can use up all the storage on your phone or max out your computer’s drive, but can you use up all the memory space in your brain? Despite how you might feel before an exam or after a sleepless night before a work deadline, neuroscientists say that for a typical, healthy brain, memory capacity isn’t fixed or easily used …

Many people still treat daydreaming like a brain malfunction, snapping focus and draining time. Harvard psychologists once pinged thousands of phones and found that minds drift 46.9 percent of waking hours, a rate higher than any other single activity. Now, a fresh wave of neuroscience has determined that daydreaming is actually a great thing for the mind. They may sharpen …

That classic result was a way to transform any algorithm with a given time budget into a new algorithm with a slightly smaller space budget. Williams saw that a simulation based on squishy pebbles would make the new algorithm’s space usage much smaller—roughly equal to the square root of the original algorithm’s time budget. That new space-efficient algorithm would also …

Want to remember things better as you get older? The secret might be surprisingly simple: focus on feeling good. Recent research involving over 10,000 people aged 50 and above has found that people with higher wellbeing perform better on memory tests as they age. The study, which followed participants for 16 years, checked their wellbeing and memory every two years. …

When most of us think about dementia, we think about forgetfulness. Losing track of names, misplacing keys, or asking the same question over and over again. But dementia is far more than just a memory problem. In fact, for many people, the first red flags don’t show up as memory loss at all. They show up in behavior, mood, and …
