High up in the Himalayas, scientists at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) and Niigata University, Japan, have discovered droplets of water trapped in mineral deposits that were likely left behind from an ancient ocean which existed around 600 million years ago. Analysis of the deposits, which had both calcium and magnesium carbonates, also allowed the team to provide a possible explanation for events that might have led to a major oxygenation event in Earth's history. "We have found a time capsule for paleo oceans," says Prakash Chandra Arya, PhD student at the Centre for Earth Sciences (CEaS), IISc, and first author of the study published in Precambrian Research .

Google parent company Alphabet recently told employees to be careful when using AI chatbots, including its Bard program. Reuters reported Google staff must not enter confidential materials and use code generated by these bots. The tech giant cited privacy, security, and productivity concerns for this strange decision. The most noticeable thing about this issue is Google prohibiting employees from using the AI chatbot it offers worldwide. Yet, companies like Google and OpenAI have been transparent in warming users about the limitations of their products and services.
