Ouch, nasty! #Tencent put some effort into hacking/attacking #Tesla #Autopilot functionality. It takes only 3 small stickers to cause a Tesla to swerve into wrong lane. Shows what's still ahead of us regarding huge safety challenges in #autonomousdriving. https://t.co/znJK3pGWyj pic.twitter.com/OIeg7ZRpQl

Seems low earth orbit will get very crowded. #Amazon #ProjectKuiper plans to launch fleet of 3236 satellites into orbit btw 590-630km, to cover 95% of humans. Joining the likes of #OneWeb, #Telesat and of course SpaceX #Starlink. We'll be hyper-connected! https://t.co/bJyffyAj4k pic.twitter.com/28zF4WdKYu

After #McDonalds #AI acquisition of #DynamicYield, here's more #food related #innoavation. #BurgerKing goes down to the core with meat-free “Impossible Whopper” w/ patty incorporating heme extracted from soy plants.
