Is the person in these two videos real—or is she a deepfake? If you guessed that she’s a deepfake, you’re correct. But if these videos fooled you, don’t be discouraged. With bodies that move and hands that wave, deepfakes just got a whole lot more realistic. Read more about how these hyperrealistic AI avatars are made: https://trib.al/FJd9oa1

Humanity has long sought to tame wood into something more predictable. Sawmills manufacture lumber from trees selected for consistency. Wood is then sawed into standard sizes and dried in kilns to prevent twisting, cupping, or cracking. Generations of craftsmen have employed sophisticated techniques like dovetail joinery, breadboard ends, and pocket flooring to keep wood from distorting in their finished pieces. But wood is inherently imprecise. Its grain reverses and swirls. Trauma and disease manifest in scars and knots. Instead of viewing these natural tendencies as liabilities, Achim Menges, an architect and professor at the University of Stuttgart in Germany, sees them as wood’s greatest assets.

"Supershoes" are dividing the elite running community. Most major brands offer multiple versions of "supershoes," high-performance footwear that help athletes run more efficiently (and therefore faster). Since 2020, runners wearing so-called advanced footwear technology have broken all road and outdoor track world records in distances from 5,000 meters to the marathon—a concentration unlike any in the sport’s modern history. But critics say these shoes place too much emphasis on gear at the expense of runners’ ability.
