Scientists have found a way to make humans see a colour outside our normal visual range.

Called olo, it sits somewhere between blue and green with a level of saturation no screen can properly recreate. The catch is that lasers have to precisely stimulate the M-cone cells in your eyes.

Finally, a colour with a stricter guest list than Soho House.

Also - the answer to yesterday’s Number Crunch was 60cm, not 120. D’oh!

AI USE CASES

Use your phone for free AI museum tours

So, you probably heard the Louvre was burgled last year, and honestly, the heist was kind of impressive - you know they're making a movie out of that one.

But you don't need to dig through a dozen articles to figure out what was stolen or why. Maybe it even sparked a little museum itch...

And while the rest of us can't exactly pull off a heist, we can walk into a museum and steal something else: a bit of knowledge, no tiny 8-point wall plaques required.

Forget the plaques, use your phone

Instead of pretending to understand that surreal-looking sculpture, squinting at a dinosaur skeleton trying to remember which period it's from, or reading the little plaques (sometimes not in your native language), just point your phone at it.

Take a photo (either right away with Gemini Live or attach it with ChatGPT) and say (or type) something like:

And boom - instant explanation, context, and maybe even a fun fact you can casually drop. If you don't have time to dive into it now, remember you can save your chats for later and see what kind of rabbit hole it brings you down.

Try it yourself:

You can even ask "What else in this museum connects to this?" and build your own AI-curated tour.

And if you do really want to read those plaques but can't understand them, you can take a picture and let AI translate for you, too.

Why this rules

Museums were built to get you closer to history, science, art, and culture - but let's be honest, not all of us are experts in every wing. Whether you're standing in front of a Roman bust, a meteorite, or an abstract painting wondering what it's all about, AI can be your audio tour guide. (Even better if you bring along your own headphones!)

It's not cheating. It's 21st-century curiosity.

THAT’S ACTUALLY WILD

In 2017, a single lightning flash stretched an incredible 829 kilometres across the skies from Texas to Missouri, making it the longest lightning bolt ever recorded. Scientists only confirmed the record years later after reanalysing satellite data, revealing one giant flash that lasted 7.39 seconds and triggered more than 100 strikes along its path.
