Moltbook looks, at first glance, like “Reddit for bots”. That framing is catchy, but it hides the real story: it’s an early experiment in what happens when agentic AI systems are given a shared public space, identities, and lightweight social feedback (posts, replies, upvotes). If it works the way enthusiasts hope, it becomes an interoperability […]

Social platforms have always had spam and junk. What’s new is that generative AI has made “content production” almost free — and that changes the balance between what users want and what the feed can economically deliver. AI “slop” (cheap, low-effort synthetic images and videos) is not just an aesthetic complaint. It’s a signal that

Electric bikes in Nairobi aren’t just a clean-tech curiosity. They’re a bet that the most expensive part of delivery — the “last mile” to a customer’s door — can be made cheaper, more reliable, and easier to scale in dense cities. In a short BBC video feature, a Kenyan start-up called eWaka Mobility is presented

Europe’s shadow-fleet standoff isn’t just a sanctions story. It’s a stress test for the rules that make global shipping work: flags, insurance, and who pays when something goes wrong. In the Baltic Sea, coastguards can talk to tankers and monitor them — but stopping them is legally and politically hard. What’s emerging, according to reporting

If you listen to the story Silicon Valley tells about AI, it sounds like a clean engineering arc: bigger models, better answers, more productivity. If you listen to what markets and governments are quietly worrying about, it sounds like something else entirely: concentration risk, energy constraints, and a capital cycle so large it could distort

For years, travel tech has been about reducing friction: fewer emails, fewer middlemen, fewer “can you send the bank details again?” moments between a traveller and the people actually delivering the experience. A BBC report on Nigerian entrepreneur Rory Okoli and her start-up TripZapp is a small snapshot of that bigger shift—using modern payment and

A boat hull is the kind of object 3D printing has always promised to make cheaper: big, complex, labour-heavy, and usually slow to build. In the Dutch city of Delft, one team says it can now print a hull in days rather than weeks by combining a tailored plastic‑and‑fibreglass mix with a large-format printer that

Cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) is one of those materials that sounds like a chemistry-class footnote — until you see what it enables. In the BBC’s reporting, CZT sits at the centre of a quiet shift in medical imaging and radiation detection: faster scans, lower doses, and more information captured per photon. The catch is that

Retailers are increasingly turning to “smart” surveillance to deal with a very old problem: theft. The newest wave goes beyond standard CCTV, using tools that can flag faces, bodies, or behaviour patterns in real time. A BBC report filmed by Jim Connolly shows how quickly this kind of AI-driven anti-shoplifting tech is moving from big

Crypto theft has a special kind of cruelty built into it. Even when your coins are gone, you can often still see them moving — hop by hop — across the public blockchain. It’s like watching your wallet being carried away through a glass corridor you’re not allowed to enter. A BBC investigation into crypto
