Trump's Health, EV Costs, AI Bots, & Ethical Babies

The rise of green technologies, particularly electric vehicles, is fueling an intensified global scramble for strategic resources like cobalt, copper, and tungsten, raising concerns about the environmental and ethical costs of this transition, according to a report from Nature News. Simultaneously, questions surrounding the health of former President Donald Trump and the ethical considerations of surrogacy are sparking public discourse, as reported by Vox.

The demand for battery components is driving resource-rich nations, such as Indonesia, to increase mining efforts for key minerals, as highlighted in Nature News. This surge in demand has turned the metals used in batteries into strategic resources, accelerating the race to secure them. The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is one area where the impact of this demand is felt, with millions of people worldwide involved in the extraction and sale of these metals.

Meanwhile, the public is also grappling with questions about the health of former President Donald Trump. Since his return to office a year prior, the internet has been abuzz with speculation about his well-being, according to Vox. Concerns have been raised due to his "rambling speeches," a mysterious bruise on his hand, and swollen ankles.

In other news, surveys, a cornerstone of social-science research, are facing challenges from AI chatbots. Online recruitment platforms, such as Amazon Mechanical Turk, Prolific, Cloud Research's Prime Panels, and Cint's Lucid, have become essential tools for researchers to reach survey participants quickly and cheaply, according to Nature News. However, concerns about inauthentic participation have persisted, with some survey takers rushing the task to make more money.

Additionally, the ethical implications of surrogacy are being debated. The line between medically necessary and elective surrogacy isn't as clear-cut as people assume, according to Vox. This is particularly relevant in the context of value pluralism, the idea that each person has multiple values that are equally valid but often conflict with each other.
