    When it can turn into a jet or boat or sub, let me know. Of course, since this is gun killer America, it’d have to be heavily armed up so that I could pretend I’m in a “well-regulated militia,” and then I can do whatever I want!! LOL, my .38 Special has a higher IQ than most gun fanatics…

    The Audi activesphere electric concept car looks cool. Reminds me of the Tesla Mercedes Ford Mustang Mach-E (front) Hyundai (back) and the cars from a game called Rocket League all in one. And at 1:24 looks like a capybara (but in car form).

    the outside look is nice but the inside is a total trash

    If the best they can give us is CGI and not even a real life car that does at least half of what they’re “concept” showing they shouldn’t release anything. I’m tired of these companies doing that. Like focus on real world solutions and something they can actually make

    The transforming part looks promising, it could even start a new category of cars. The AR part feels a bit too impractial… for now.

    This concept reminds me the Viper TV series.

    This is what crossovers will look like. It just makes sense to take inspiration from pickups and combine it with a crossover. Audi has figured it out!

    I love the transformation idea, but hate the interior design.

    audi spends more money on concepts than building real EV

    Since CES 2023 is over there is no exciting news and every journalist are covering same old things! Im surprised Engadget isnt covering this concept design story from the good ol unreliable german car companies

    I don’t care for concept cars. The final version will never be as hot as the concept version. Why? Why do car manufacturers do this? What’s the point? The Supra had a badass concept,… then the production version came out… ????

    VEry cool. I wonder if any of the espheres will ever make it to production.

This new way of treating depression starts with rewiring the brain #TEDTalks

The idea that depression comes from a chemical imbalance in the brain has shaped treatment for decades. Neuroscientist Lisa Monteggia shares research suggesting that’s not the whole story — and shows how a decades-old drug could upend what we thought we knew about depression, with the potential to offer relief within hours.
