Pope's AI Encyclical: Combating Misinformation #shorts

Experts warn AI LLMs can amplify misinformation. The solution? Not just regulation, but robust education. We must learn to engage digitally and teach the next generation to navigate risks, fostering inner freedom and safeguarding dignity. A concrete act of charity. #AIMisinformation #DigitalLiteracy #OnlineSafety #FaithAndTech #Education

4 Kenyan Universities. 4 Hours to Stop Scams in Kenya

4 Kenyan Universities. 4 Hours to Stop Scams in Kenya

4 Kenyan Universities. 4 Hours to Stop Scams in Kenya

4 teams of student developers. 4 universities. 4 hours. One mission: help stop scams in Kenya.

Scams affect millions of people every year, from fake job opportunities and phishing attacks to online fraud and mobile money scams. So we decided to put Kenya’s student developers to the test.

In this episode of Vibe Coding Show, teams from Kenyatta University (KU), University of Nairobi (UON), Machakos University (MKSU), and JKUAT were given just 4 hours to design and build a tech solution that could help Kenyans avoid, detect, or stop scams.

No one knew what the other teams were building.

No extra time.

No second chances.

Just 4 hours to turn an idea into a working prototype and pitch it to the judges.

You’ll see the brainstorming, the coding, the pressure, the bugs, the pivots, and the final presentations as these student developers compete to prove which university can build the best solution.

Who came up with the smartest idea?
Who built the best prototype?
And which team deserved to win?

Watch until the end and tell us in the comments which solution you would actually use.

Terence Tao on How AI Is Changing Mathematics

Fields Medal recipient Terence Tao explains how AI is changing the way mathematicians work, making it easier to experiment, explore new ideas, and collaborate on difficult problems.
The video also features OpenAI Chief Research Officer Mark Chen, who discusses OpenAI’s broader goal of building tools that help scientists and researchers achieve breakthroughs at scale.
Together, they explore how AI can expand what’s possible in mathematics and science while preserving the creativity, curiosity, and discovery that drive human progress.
Terence Tao was interviewed at an OpenAI Forum event held in partnership with IPAM (the Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics) in March 2026.

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS is here — and honestly, this is the most PREMIUM Ubuntu has ever looked and felt. In this video, I take you through everything new in Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, from GNOME 50 and the buttery-smooth desktop, to 5 brand new default apps, the refreshed Yaru theme, the move to a Wayland-only session, and the turbocharged engine running on Linux kernel 7.0. If you’re coming from Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, you’re getting years of polish landing on your desktop all at once — and you can feel it.

We break down why Ubuntu 26.04 LTS finally feels like a modern, complete desktop OS: the new apps (Showtime, Resources, Ptyxis, Papers and Loupe), the GNOME 50 smoothness story with triple buffering and a snappier Files app, the grown-up Yaru icons and theme, and the big Wayland switch that unlocks fractional scaling, VRR, and a foundation for HDR. We also dig into the hardware and performance side — AMD power profiles, NTSYNC for gaming, and support for the latest chips.

If you’ve been waiting for the Ubuntu glow-up, this is it. Ubuntu grew up.

⏱️ What we cover:

– Ubuntu 26.04 LTS first look and why it feels premium
– 5 new default apps: Showtime, Resources, Ptyxis, Papers, Loupe
– GNOME 50 — triple buffering, smoother animations, faster Files
– The refreshed Yaru theme, icons and Ubuntu Dock
– Wayland-only session, fractional scaling, VRR and HDR foundation
– Linux kernel 7.0, AMD power profiles, NTSYNC gaming, new hardware support
– My personal thoughts — is Ubuntu 26.04 LTS the smoothest Linux desktop yet?

🚀 Level up your Linux skills with my course, Linux Mastery Express — go from zero to hero in the shortest time possible.
