In the Syfy show The Ark , colonization missions are necessary for the survival of the human race. One-hundred years into the future, the first group of humans board the spacecraft Ark One and set a course for a new planet to serve as their future home. Traveling aboard a spaceship into the unknown — what could go wrong? In The Ark ‘s case, just about everything goes awry after a disastrous event destroys critical sections of the ship and kills most of the high-ranking officials on board.

Spencer Lane ( The Outpost’s Reece Ritchie) must act quickly and take control of the ship before it’s too late.

AI, Swarm Intelligence, and the Future of Sports Betting | Digital Trends

Could these algorithms undermine the “house” and turn sports betting on its head? The prediction predicament Athletic events are chock full of juicy data that A.I. developers would probably love to feed to their algorithms.

The best iPhones in 2023: which one should you buy? | Digital Trends
Apple’s iPhone has been around for well over a decade now, and it’s always a great choice for those who are looking for a smartphone.
