Artificial intelligence self-improves at an accelerating pace, surpassing human intelligence, leading to rapid, uncontrollable, exponential growth, and transforming human society in ways we can’t predict.

-Thomas Carlyle
Vaguer the task, or more abstract the thinking it requires; the less likely you are to finish it.
The terahertz (1 trillion cycles per second) gap refers to a portion of the electromagnetic spectrum where efficient generation, detection, and manipulation of radiation have been very challenging. It’s found from 0.1 THz to 10 THz, between the technologies of infrared/optics and microwave/electronics.
Passes through clothing, paper, plastics, ceramics. Strongly absorbed by water and many molecules. Sensitive to moisture; good for spectroscopy. Reflects off metals. Safer than X-rays for human scanning.
Wireless Communication (6G and beyond) — THz bands offer enormous bandwidth for ultra-high-speed data (terabits per second), though with short range and high atmospheric absorption.
