Tyreek Hill is a Super Bowl champion, has played in the Pro Bowl seven times, and was named to the NFL’s 2010s All-Decade Team. But the 29-year old’s passions these days are leaning more towards esports than traditional ones.
Hill, who’s currently a wide receiver for the Miami Dolphins, has announced his plans to retire from the NFL when his contract runs out at the end of the 2025 season. Even more shocking for fans, though, is what he says he plans to do next:
Meta has developed a new AI model called Segment Anything that can cut any object out of any digital image or video, even if it’s never seen the object or the image before. The research could have big implications for Meta’s metaverse (if it shows up) as well as its core ads business.

The site’s “Twitter Verified” feed, which historically has followed all verified accounts (before the launch of Twitter Blue) began a mass unfollowing Thursday afternoon.

Money can buy everything, the saying goes, except for good health and more years on the clock. Startup Tally Health intends to challenge that. The New York City-based biotech company wants to build a business out of slowing the impacts of aging, offering tailored suggestions to help people stay healthy—and, in turn, perhaps live longer.

A moratorium on regulating human commercial spaceflight—aka space tourism—is set to expire in October, and the folks at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) are at a crossroads: to renew or not to renew?
In a report published this week by RAND, researchers determined that the commercial human spaceflight industry has progressed far enough that it’s time for the FAA to allow the moratorium to expire and start imposing certain regulations on the ind
