Better Than Human

Advanced prosthetics designed for animals from horses to dolphins could one day be put to use for humans.

Get a bots'-eye view of the "human exclusion zone" in a massive warehouse where an army of high-tech robots finds and fulfills up to 30,000 orders a day.

In the latest incarnation of Dawn of the Planet of the Apes Andy Serkis and Toby Kebbell deliver human motion-capture performances to help bring the realistic apes to life. Shot with a combination of high-speed cameras, Mike Seymour breaks down the tech behind shooting the motion-capture scenes on location versus on a sound stage.

Steve Aoki talks with famed futurist Ray Kurzweil about how technology will shape our future, in terms of creativity, consciousness, and the coming singularity.

The technological advances in remotely operated vehicles (R.O.V.) have allowed researchers to uncover new ocean depths, like the 1986 footage of the Titanic by the Alvin submersible. Find out what lies ahead for the future of deep-sea exploration from the scientists who are taking the plunge.

Stanford researcher Mark Denny used models from the animal world to examine just how much faster we might get in the future. Here, he explains his work.

Dr. Euan Ashley and his team are gathering DNA samples from the most elite endurance athletes on the planet to find the genetic reasons that they are so fit.

The axolotl is not only weirdly cute for an amphibian but it can also regenerate its own limbs. Scientists are studying how the salamanders regrow legs and how humans might someday do the same.

Imagine robotic fingers that can feel vibrations, textures, and temperatures. For those with prosthetic hands, it’s no longer a dream, it’s reality. Find out how one company is disrupting the prosthetic hand field by mimicking the sensation a hand feels with synthetic fingernails and fingerprints.

Technologically we may be close to sending astronauts to Mars, but is the human body ready for it? Dr. Camille Alleyne from the International Space Station Program describes how the six to eight month trip to Mars could cause vision impairment, muscle atrophy, and bone density loss, and she explains how scientists plan to counteract those issues.

You’re worried about your impact on the environment. Maybe you just want to recycle more, or eat greener. Well, good on you. These handy apps can help.

When Google's AI beat the world's Go champion 4-1, it stirred a certain sadness in many people. But the reality is the technologies at the heart of AlphaGo are the future. So it's a time to be excited not scared.

Speakers at the WIRED Business Conference grapple with how AI will transform the job market.

To save the endangered island fox and its home off the coast of California, scientists went to war on invasive species like feral pigs and aggressive ants.

'Snowden' stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Shailene Woodley discuss the making of their new movie, and talk about how technology has essentially taken away our right to privacy.

Last year was the hottest year since scientists started keeping records in the 19th century. It's no fluke---because it's humanity's fault.

Meet the stentor, a gigantic single-celled organism that can regenerate and ink like a squid.

If a ballooning humanity wants to feed itself as global warming throws agriculture into disarray, it'll need the help of robots like Vinobot.

America just witnessed the most fantastic celestial phenomenon human eyes can witness: a total solar eclipse. It was a national spectacle, but also a huge opportunity for science.

Two and a half years after Chimp competed in the Darpa Robotics Challenge, it remains one of the weirdest humanoid robots on Earth.

Robots and AI are expected to operate more seamlessly within the human world. To achieve this, scientists have begun outfitting technology with the same sensors that human beings use. Those sensors, more commonly known as the five senses, are sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. In this series, WIRED Brand Lab explores the senses that are being developed for technology so that these objects can better operate within the human world and humans can better interact with the virtual world.

Pepper is part of the first wave of intelligent machines that promise to not only make our lives easier, but to bring a strange new form of interaction into being.

Yuval Noah Harari, historian and best-selling author of Sapiens, Homo Deus and 21 Lessons for the 21st Century, and Tristan Harris, co-founder and executive director of the Center for Humane Technology, speak with WIRED Editor in Chief Nicholas Thompson.

In a discussion that covers ethics in technology, hacking humans, free will, and how to avoid potential dystopian scenarios, historian and philosopher Yuval Noah Harari speaks with Fei-Fei Li, renowned computer scientist and Co-Director of Stanford University's Human-Centered AI Institute -- in a conversation moderated by Nicholas Thompson, WIRED's Editor-in-Chief.

To find just how far the human body can be pushed researchers studied athletes who ran six marathons a week over months and compared their energy intake and expenditure data to those of other athletes, workers, and pregnant women. WIRED's Robbie Gonzalez talks with study author Herman Pontzer of Duke University about the findings.
