  Scientists are still stunned by Elon Musk's plan to enable blind people to see, using his Neurolink's Brain Computer Interface chip dubbed Blindsight. Neurolink has already partnered with top Spanish scientists and US Santa Barbara to make a device called Blindsight, a smart Bionic Eye powered by brain implants and AI. Blindsight got the approval of the US Food and Drug Adminstration (FDA), though there have been no human trials. Musk confided that Neurolink will perform its first human implant of Blindsight at the course of 2025. Will Neurolink's Blindsight allow Blind People to see? Blindsight is designed to enable people with total visual impairment, as a result of damaged optic nerve but with intact visual cortex, to see. This is enhanced by bypassing the optic nerve and stimulating the visual cortex to create a visual perception. Visual cortex is part of the brain that receives, integrates and processes visual information relayed from the retina.  Blindsigh...

The sector of financial services have already adopted quantum technologies. Quantum computing is currently being deployed in fraud detection and encryption to risk forecast. This technology could transform space research, encryption, scientific discovery and artificial intelligence in ways never seen before. Apart from healthcare, quantum computers also seek to optimize complex systems, like global supply chains and traffic flow in cities. This could save resources, curtail inefficiencies and create waste-free, smarter cities.  How does quantum computing work? Contrary to traditional computers, quantum computers use qubits that incredibly handle complex calculations and faster in performance.  Traditional computers use bits which can either be 0 or 1, while quantum computers use bits which can be both 0 and 1 at the same time. This enables them handle massive data processing. Tasks that could take years to be accomplished can be done in seconds.  The emerging comp...

  Since the attainment of independence in Kenya, there has been a series of liberation struggles to emancipate Kenyans from oppressive and autocratic regimes. Most importantly, Kenyans struggle has never been in vain. However, these struggles have morphed from being choreographed by the political characters to ordinary Kenyans. Histories of Kenya's Liberation Struggles There have been four notable liberation struggles that Kenyans Must Know .  The first one was the independence struggle, the second one was the clamour for multipartism, the third one was the quest for a new constitution and the fourth one was a battle for tax justice. First Liberation Struggle The first notable struggle was waged by Jomo Kenyatta, Oginga Odinga, Masinde Muliro, Ronald Ngala, Tom Mboya among other key figures who fought hard until Kenya attained freedom from the British colonizers. Both the first and the second  Lancaster House Conferences led to the drafting of the first constitutio...

  Forget about investing in Gold, Nvidia, Microsoft, Google, Bitcoin, Tesla and think about the software that drives the existence of the market capped most valuable assets . Intangible assets play a pivotal role in spuring innovation, productivity and economic growth. Most common intangible assets include intellectual property, copyrights, patents, databases, research and development, trademark, computer software, organizational assets, and skills.  These assets are essential for modern businesses to remain afloat and being innovative boosts their monetary value. World's most valuable intangible assets 1. Time : Globally, time is the most valuable intangible asset. “Time is our most valuable asset, yet we tend to waste it, kill it and spend it rather than invest it,” Jim Rohn, the pioneer personal development once stated. Time is the only commodity that cannot be retrieved, and once wasted there's no recovery mechanism meant for any gainful purpose. Time is the only de...

The real identity of the founder of Bitcoin, who is only known by the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto , has remained the greatest enigma of the digital age.  Despite varied inquiries and theories, nobody has been able to confirm who Satoshi Nakamoto real is and where he resides. No one can tell if the name represents an individual or a group of people. His name is Japanese and probably Bitcoin was developed by a person from Japan. Satoshi Nakamoto launched Bitcoin , a decentralized digital currency implemented on blockchain database, through a white paper in 2008. He continued contributing towards the project until 2011, after which he disappeared from public communication.  Since his disappearance Bitcoin has grown exponentially, yet the creator's identity is still unknown. Multiple reports indicate that Nakamoto control almost 1.1 million worth of bitcoins, currently valued at around $54.2 billion.  Despite huge fortunes, Nakamoto's Bitcoins are untouched since they wer...
