You may recognize this megayacht from The Island with Scarlett Johansson and Ewan McGregor back in 2005. Some experts say the 118 wallypower is one of the most magnificent works of modern engineering. This megayacht has a cruising speed of 60 knots – which is quick enough to get you from Miami Florida to Havana Cuba in under three and a half hours. Powered by three 5,600 HP Turbine engines, this yacht drinks 15 gallons per nautical mile at full speed. If you can afford the $25 million price tag, then you won’t mind dropping $60,000 at the pump to fill up the tank. This nautical racer is constructed nearly entirely of composites. No detail on the 118 wallypower has been ignored- this boat was designed luxury and speed.

Mori might be the cutest AI companion robot yet, and it reacts to you like a pet

The Pokémon-like companion can blink, dance, act shy, and respond to what is happening around it.

OKA Mori The Nature Companion AI Home Robot

With AI progressing so fast, it's only a matter of time before we start getting AI companions like the ones we used to see in movies like R2-D2, Wall-E, or Baymax. Now, Singapore-based OKA Technology has unveiled Mori, a cute little AI companion that looks less like a conventional home robot and more like someone turned the Pokémon Foongus into a table lamp.

Mori isn't meant to clean your house or control your smart home, but to serve as what OKA calls a "Nature Companion." It uses subtle movements, warm lighting, nature-inspired sounds, and small reactions to make its presence around the house feel calming rather than distracting. Mori can sit quietly while you read, sway along to music, welcome you when you enter a room, or encourage you to slow down for a moment without requiring a screen or a conversation.
