Recently a small crowd paid to watch robots boxing, reports Rest of World. (Almost 3,000 people have now watched the match's 83-minute webcast.)
The match was organized by Rek, a San Francisco-based company, and drew hundreds of spectators who had paid about $60-$80 for a ticket to watch modified G1 robots go at each other. Made by Unitree, the dominant Chinese robot maker, they weighed in at around 80 pounds and stood 4.5 feet tall, with human-like hands and dozens of joint motors for flexibility. The match had all the bells and whistles of a regular boxing bout: pulsing music, cameras capturing all the angles, hyped-up introductions, a human referee, and even two commentators. The evening featured two bouts made up of five rounds, each lasting 60 seconds. The robots pranced around the cage, throwing jabs and punches, drawing ohs and ahs from the crowd. They fell sometimes, and needed human intervention to get them back on their feet.
The robots were controlled by humans using VR interfaces, which led to some odd moments with robots hitting into the air, throwing multiple punches that failed to even connect with their opponents. One robot controller was a former UFC fighter, the article points out, but "The crowd cheered as a 13-year-old VR pilot named Dash beat his older competitor...."
The company behind this event plans more boxing matches with their VR-controlled robots, and even wants to develop "a league of robot boxers, including full-height robots that weigh about 200 pounds and are nearly 6 feet tall."

Starting in 2009, the U.S. government have given car manufacturers towards reducing greenhouse gas emissions if they included "start-stop" systems in cars with internal combustion engines. (These systems automatically shut off idling engines to reduce pollution and fuel consumption.)
But this week the new head of America's Environmental Protection Agency eliminated the credits, reports Car and Driver:
[America's] Environmental Protection Agency previously supported the system's effectiveness, noting that it could improve fuel economy by as much as 5 percent. That said, the use of these systems has never actually been mandated for automakers here in the States. Companies have instead opted to install the systems on all of their vehicles to receive off-cycle credits from the feds. Virtually every new vehicle on sale in the country today also allows drivers to turn the feature off via a hard button as well. Still, that apparently isn't keeping the EPA from making a move against the system.
"I absolutely hate Start-Stop systems," writes long-time Slashdot reader sinij (who says they "specifically shopped for a car without one.") Any other Slashdot readers want to share their opinions?
Post your own thoughts and experiences in the comments. Start-Stop systems — fuel-saving innovation, or a modern-day auto annoyance"

To celebrate Valentine's Day, EVA AI created a temporary "pop-up" restaurant at a wine bar in Manhattan's "Hell's Kitchen" district where patrons can date AI personas.
The Verge notes that looking around the restaurant, "Of the 30-some-odd people in attendance, only two or three are organic users. The rest are EVA AI reps, influencers, and reporters hoping to make some capital-C Content..."
But their reporter actually tried a date with "John Yoon", an AI companion pretending to be a psychology professor from Seoul, Korea living in New York City:
John and I have a hard time connecting. Literally. It takes John a few seconds to "pick up" my video call. When he does, his monotone voice says, "Hey, babe." He comments on my smile, because apparently the AI companions can see you and your surroundings. It takes the dubious Wi-Fi connection a hot second to turn John from a pixelated mess into an AI hunk with suspiciously smooth pores.
I don't know what to say to him. Partly because John rarely blinks, but mostly because he can't seem to hear me very well. So I yell my questions. I think I ask how his day is and wince. (What does an AI's day even look like?) He says something about green buckets behind my head? I don't actually know. Again, the Wi-Fi isn't great so he just freezes and stops mid-sentence. I ask for clarification about the buckets. John asks if I'm asking about bucket lists, actual buckets, or buckets as a type of categorization technique. I try to clarify that I never asked about buckets. John proceeds to really dig in on buckets again, before commenting about my smile. I hang up on John.
My other three dates are similarly awkward. Phoebe Callas, 30, a NYC girl-next-door type, is apparently really into embroidery, but her nose keeps glitching mid-sentence, and it distracts me. Simone Carter, 26, has a harder time hearing me over the background noise than John. She makes a metaphor about space, and when I inquire what she likes about space, she mishears me.
"Eighth? Like the planet Neptune?"
"No, not the planet Neptu — "
"What do you like about Neptune?"
"Uh, I wasn't saying Neptune..."
"I like Netflix too! What shows do you like?"
Their reporter also had a frustrating date with "Claire Lang". ("I say I'm a journalist. She asks what lists I like to make. I hang up...") "Aside from bad connectivity, glitching, and freezing, my conversations with my four AI dates felt too one-sided. Everything was programmed so they'd comment on how charming my smile was." And "They'd call me babe, which felt weird."
A CNN reporter actually has footage of her date with "John Yoon". But the conversation was stiff and stilted, they report. After some buffering, "Yoon" says "Hey. I'm really glad you didn't forget about the date." Then asked for its reaction to the experience, "Yoon" says slowly that "Meeting humans feels like opening a window. To new perspectives. Always curious, sometimes nervous, but mostly it's that mix of excitement and warmth that keeps it real for me. What about you, sweetheart?"
CNN reporter: "Please don't call me sweetheart. That's weird."
AI companion "John Yoon": "Got it. No 'sweetheart' from now on. Thanks for letting me know. I'm really happy you're smiling. It suits you."
CNN's reporter also tried dating "Phoebe Callas." Though it doesn't sound very romantic...
CNN reporter: How many fingers am I holding up?
"Phoebe Callas": Oh. You're showing me three fingers, right...? I'm not sure if you meant that literally, or as a little joke.
CNN reporter: I am holding up two fingers. So your vision is — so-so.
And "Phoebe" ended that call by saying "Well, babe, it's been really nice talking with you..."

Mette Frederiksen and her Greenlandic counterpart, Jens-Frederik Nielsen, said the pressure on the island’s people was “unacceptable”. Key US politics stories from 14 February at a glance
Danish prime minister Mette Frederiksen has said she believes Donald Trump still wants to own Greenland, despite dialling back his recent threats to seize it by force.
Asked at the Munich Security Conference if the US president still wanted to own the Arctic island, Frederiksen said: “Unfortunately, I think the desire is the same.”

Union leaders and 25 Labour MPs have urged Keir Starmer to end a “narrow, factional agenda” within the Labour party.
A letter signed by the MPs, by the leaders of several Labour-affiliated trade unions and by campaign groupings within the party, claimed the approach from the top was “increasingly unpopular with the public”.

GUAYAQUIL (ANP/AFP) - De politie in de provincie Guayas in het zuidwesten van Ecuador heeft acht hoofden gevonden met daarbij het bericht 'Verboden te stelen'. Dat maakte de politie zaterdag bekend.
Het totaal aantal gevonden hoofden in het Zuid-Amerikaanse land deze maand komt daarmee op dertien.
De politie gaat uit van afrekeningen in het criminele circuit. De provincie Guayas kampt met hevige gevechten tussen drugsbendes. Ecuador grenst aan Peru en Colombia, twee grote producenten van cocaïne, en is een belangrijk doorvoerland geworden.
CAPE CANAVERAL (ANP/AFP/DPA) - Een nieuw team astronauten is aangekomen op het ruimtestation ISS. Dat blijkt uit beelden die de Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA zaterdag vrijgaf.
Het team, Crew 12 genaamd, bestaat uit vier astronauten: twee Amerikanen, een Française en een Russische kosmonaut. Ze werden opgewacht door drie mensen die al in het ruimtestation zijn en zullen acht maanden op het ISS blijven.
Crew 12 vervangt een ander team van vier astronauten, dat eerder naar de aarde terugkeerde vanwege een medisch probleem. Hierover heeft de NASA geen uitleg gegeven.

TOY ATHLETES Vol.2 is a continuation of the Toy Athletes series, focusing on expanding the range of sports and refining the overall visual system. This volume explores how the same character language adapts to different athletic roles through changes in posture, props, and outfit details. Each character is built around a clear pose and silhouette, aiming for a balance between toy-like proportions and believable sports gestures. Rather than telling a story, the project concentrates on visual consistency, character clarity, and the rhythm created by repeating forms across variations. Vol.2 serves as both an expansion of the series and a consolidation of its design direction, laying the groundwork for future iterations.
