🧠 A neurobiochemical link between dopamine and cognitive flexibility confirmed

📸 For the first time, positron emission tomography (PET) scans have shown that the brain increases dopamine production during cognitively demanding tasks, and that the more dopamine is released, the more efficiently the tasks are performed. With this knowledge, doctors may soon be able to develop more effective treatments for neurological and psychiatric disorders.

🧠 China Upgrades Its Virtual AI Personality to the Development Level of a 5-Year-Old Child

🤖 The Beijing Institute for General Artificial Intelligence has unveiled a new version of its "digital personality" — TongTong 2.0. While the previous version had the intelligence of a 3-year-old, the new iteration has reached the developmental level of a 5- to 6-year-old preschooler. During a demonstration, the AI exhibited creative thinking: when a remote control was placed out of reach, the system stacked cushions to retrieve it. TongTong 2.0 interacts with various characters in virtual environments, such as a kindergarten. This enables the formation of individual behavioral models and the development of emotional intelligence.

🛰NASA Successfully Tested an Electric Shield Against Lunar Dust

👽 NASA has successfully tested an Electrodynamic Dust Shield (EDS) — a technology that uses an electric field to remove lunar dust from equipment. The experiment took place aboard Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost Mission 1 and confirmed the system's effectiveness. Sharp lunar regolith poses a serious threat to hardware and astronaut gear. This technology could become a key solution for protecting future lunar missions.

📸 On the cover — Apollo 17 mission commander Gene Cernan covered in lunar dust that penetrated his spacesuit after returning to the lunar module. Moon, southeastern edge of the Sea of Serenity, December 1972.
