The big news this month in the imaging space has been the results from the Samsung S25 Ultra and its magic eraser AI powers. Now, you can pretty much effortlessly manipulate any image beyond recognition and the quality of output is already on par with what skilled digital artists achieve with years of training and experience. This might be great for the average camphone user to create personalized memories, but it dents reality beyond recognition as there ceases to be reality as we know it. Forcing consumers to make voluntary or compulsory declarations (with potential penalties) will always be an issue. But we need to do a lot more to improve transparency. Apple is addressing this by updating EXIF data on images manipulated using AI tools. Social media platforms should…

2025 marks 200 years since the world’s first steam-powered passenger train – George Stephenson’s Locomotion No.1 – first chugged along the tracks of the Stockton and Darlington Railway, and we reckon this makes it the perfect time for a spectacular train ride. Top of your list should be the Caledonian Sleeper – a brilliant way to travel between London and Edinburgh. Highlights include the sleek suites, snooze-inducing mattresses from Glencraft (a supplier to the British Royal family) and the way in which the latest engineering tech helps ramp up comfort levels. The presence of Dellner couplers, for example, minimises shunting-related bumps when trains split and join. Nobody likes things which go bump in the night, after all. (sleeper.scot) As for where to stay? In London, it’s got to be the…

Q Would you include an article on silicon wafers? A We don’t usually drill down to the semiconductor level, except when GaGu is offering ill-considered advice about laptop trepanning. But heck, since you asked, let’s give it a go. Silicon wafers are the beginnings of integrated circuits. Through a whole bunch of exciting chemical processes like ion implantation, photolithography and, interestingly for cycling fans, doping, these are etched with the teensy paths and transistors of circuits. These are then split off of the main wafer and put into microchips. Guru would wager that every device you own has somehow been touched by Taiwan’s TSMC. The company makes over 16 million 12-inch wafers a year, each of which contains hundreds or thousands of chips. Apple, Nvidia, et al design them, but TSMC…
