To educate the public and allied health professionals, Prevent Blindness offers free, expert-approved educational resources on GA including a fact sheet and a series of social media graphics, available in English and Spanish, a dedicated web page and expert and patient videos. This year’s GA Week is generously supported by Silver sponsor Apellis Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Vision changes due to GA may include:

• Difficulty seeing in the center of your vision, which is needed for reading, recognizing faces, and driving
• Numbers or letters disappearing or missing when reading
• A dim or dark spot in your central or near central (side) vision
• Trouble seeing in dim light
• Needing extra light to read
• Dull or washed-out colors
• Vision not as clear or sharp

However, in the early stages of GA, there may be no notable symptoms. This can delay early diagnosis and treatment during a critical period to preserve sight.

“Geographic atrophy can profoundly affect the independence and quality of life of millions of patients and their families,” said Jeff Todd, president and CEO of Prevent Blindness. “Our goal at Prevent Blindness is to bring GA into the spotlight- ensuring people recognize the symptoms, understand their options, and feel empowered to seek care earlier.”

Prevent Blindness recently hosted the community forum “Geographic Atrophy: Knowledge, Hope, and Help,” designed for those who have been diagnosed with GA, and/or their care partners. The discussion, available for viewing free online, includes an overview of GA, patient experiences of individuals living with the condition, and resources available to GA patients. This virtual event was supported by funding from Apellis, Astellas, and Johnson & Johnson.

Panelists of the “Geographic Atrophy: Knowledge, Hope, and Help” forum include:

• Moderator: Kira Baldonado, MPH, Executive Vice President, Prevent Blindness
• John W. Kitchens, MD, Retina Specialist, Retina Associates of Kentucky
• Julie Grutzmacher, MSW, MPH, Director of Patient Advocacy + Population Health Initiatives, Prevent Blindness
• Diane Marshall, Prevent Blindness ASPECT Patient Engagement Program Graduate, Individual Living with GA
• Pete Poulsen, Prevent Blindness ASPECT Patient Engagement Program Graduate, Retired Business Communication Coordinator, Individual Living with GA

Additional educational videos from Prevent Blindness include the Focus on Eye Health Series episodes:

• “Advancements in Treatments for Geographic Atrophy,” featuring Rajeev S. Ramchandran, MD, MBA, Associate Professor of Ophthalmology, Flaum Eye Institute, University of Rochester Medical Center.
• “Geographic Atrophy and Patient Support,” featuring Prevent Blindness Ohio Past President and CEO, Sherry Williams, sharing her story as a care partner for her mother diagnosed with GA.
• “Geographic Atrophy” episode featuring Janet S. Sunness, MD, medical director of the Richard E. Hoover Low Vision Rehabilitation Services at the Greater Baltimore Medical Center.

A recent study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that one in four adults with vision loss reported anxiety or depression. For those experiencing vision loss or blindness from GA, or other eye diseases or conditions, Prevent Blindness offers the Vision Loss and Mental Wellness resource from its Living Well With Low Vision program. Prevent Blindness strongly encourages those experiencing mental wellness issues, and their care partners, to contact a mental health professional, and seek out support groups of others who are living with GA.

The Sean M. Healey & AMG Center for ALS at Mass General Brigham has selected Tiziana Life Sciences as one of the companies to enter the Healey ALS MyMatch Program for testing intranasal foralumab in a biomarker-driven phase 2a clinical trial for ALS. This trial is partially funded by the ALS Association’s Hoffman ALS Clinical Trial Awards Program.

The Healey ALS MyMatch program is changing the field of early phase ALS clinical trials (Phase 1b/2a). The program uses a personalized approach, an efficient program architecture and central governance that allows for faster trial access for participants across multiple sites and faster and better trials for drug developers. An ALS MyMatch trial evaluates if an experimental treatment being tested for ALS is safe, how it works at a molecular level or how much of a dosage to give to have a biological effect in ALS. Information learned from a successful ALS MyMatch trial can help refine strategy for future phase 2/3 clinical trials, whether the experimental treatment should be tested in select subgroups of ALS individuals with certain disease characteristics or more broadly in all people with ALS. ALS MyMatch uses smart tools like genetics, blood and spinal fluid biomarkers and artificial intelligence to help choose the right drug for the right people with ALS and track how well it works.

Expert ALS scientist members of the ALS MyMatch Therapy Evaluation Committee selected Tiziana Life Sciences to work with the Healey & AMG Center on a new trial to include in the program. The trial will be led by Principal Investigators Suma Babu, MBBS, MPH, Co-Director of the Neurological Clinical Research Institute (NCRI) and Healey & AMG Center at Mass General Brigham, and James Berry, MD, MPH, Chief of the Division of ALS and Motor Neuron Diseases at Mass General Brigham.

Howard Weiner, MD, Professor of Neurology, Harvard Medical School and Co-Director of the Ann Romney Center for Neurologic Diseases at Mass General Brigham, is a key scientific collaborator in the ALS MyMatch trial. His groundbreaking preclinical work with foralumab has laid the foundation for bench-to-bedside translation of foralumab into clinical trials for multiple neurological diseases, including multiple sclerosis (MS), Alzheimer’s disease, and multiple system atrophy (MSA). Now, in partnership with Tiziana Life Sciences, Dr. Weiner is helping advance foralumab’s potential in ALS. “Based on the effect of foralumab in ALS models and in MS and Alzheimer’s disease, my team and I are hopeful that foralumab will affect disease progression in ALS,” says Dr. Weiner.

Tiziana Life Sciences’ investigational product, foralumab, is a fully human anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody that has been shown to stimulate T regulatory cells when administered by a nasal spray. Neuroinflammation and immune dysregulation, particularly involving T-cell dysfunction and microglial activation, are increasingly recognized as key drivers of disease progression in ALS. Preclinical and clinical evidence indicate that nasally administered foralumab stimulates regulatory T cells in cervical lymph nodes, which then migrate to the central nervous system (CNS) to suppress pathogenic inflammation and restore microglial homeostasis.

“We are thrilled to finalize design and move towards next steps of trial conduct of this multi-site trial with Tiziana Life Sciences,” states Dr. Babu. “The trial will use cellular and biofluid biomarkers alongside advanced brain imaging to better understand how the drug works in the brain and to group participants in the trial based on their unique disease profile.”

“New treatments are urgently needed to make ALS livable and cure it, so we are pleased to see intranasal foralumab continue to advance in development. This ALS MyMatch trial will be a crucial first step toward larger trials that can determine efficacy,” said Kuldip Dave, PhD, Senior Vice President of Research at the ALS Association. The Association previously funded the preclinical development of foralumab through its Barnett Drug Development Program.

ALS MyMatch is a multi-site, collaborative initiative that currently brings together four trial-ready, high enrolling ALS research centers and is a Network of Excellence for ALS (NEALS) affiliated program. Research centers include Mass General in Boston; University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, Minn.; Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill.; and Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. ALS MyMatch has partnered with the Acceleration Centers of Enrollment (ACE) program, a community-driven philanthropic partnership program focused on expediting start up and recruitment at study centers. Additional trials and high performing sites will be added as the program grows. Organizations can apply on the ALS MyMatch website.

Hardin noted that renewable energy sources are expected to make up around 93% of new U.S. capacity additions this year. At the same time, she said, workforce constraints pose a significant barrier to scalability. Construction workers, welders, and electricians are essential to building the physical infrastructure that’s needed to scale clean energy technologies.

“If you think about the $650 billion in infrastructure projects announced since 2022, that’s going to require a tremendous workforce,” she said, citing the current shortage of around 500,000 construction workers in the U.S.

Vagneur-Jones grounded domestic developments in a global context, observing that the U.S. represents less than 10% of global demand for EVs; around 25% for batteries; and roughly 10% and 4% for solar and wind, respectively. China, which dominates clean energy manufacturing, accounts for 50% to 70% of global market share in the sector.

“We’re seeing a huge rise in Chinese exports to emerging economies, which is bringing the energy transition within reach for countries where it really wasn’t seriously considered,” Vagneur-Jones said, pointing out that Thailand now has a higher share of electric vehicles in passenger vehicle sales than the United States.

Speakers also noted that policy uncertainty—including questions about tariffs and tax credits—has complicated business planning. Building capacity takes time, Fazili noted, and there needs to be a “strong and consistent demand signal before companies can make large-scale capital investments.”

When it comes to U.S. manufacturing investments, Vagneur-Jones argued that continuity matters most.

“You’ve got to commit to one approach, and you have to do it over several years,” he said, adding that through sustained policy, “there is waste, and there are mistakes, and there are cycles—but there is also progress.”

Watch the keynote.

Heathrow Airport’s plan for a third runway, which involves moving the M25 motorway, has been chosen by the government.

Two plans had been under consideration – one from the airport itself, and another from Arora Group, led by hotel tycoon Surinder Arora.

Heathrow had proposed a new runway which would be up to 3.5km (2.2 miles) long and require a new road tunnel under the airport. The rival bid from Arora Group would have involved a shorter runway at a lower cost, and did not require altering the M25.

A final decision on whether a third runway will get the green light is still years away.

Last month, the government asked for further information to help choose between the Heathrow and Arora schemes.

The Department for Transport said Heathrow’s own proposal offered the most deliverable option, and the “greatest likelihood” of getting a decision on planning approval within this parliament.

The plan that has been backed will inform the government’s review of the Airports National Policy Statement.

Once that is complete, Heathrow is expected to apply for planning permission. The government then hopes for a decision by 2029.

But any company will be able to submit an application to build the new runway and terminals at the site.

Heathrow had set out its plans for expansion in the summer. The whole project, which is expected to cost £49bn, includes:

• the new runway, which Heathrow says will increase capacity to 756,000 flights and 150 million passengers a year. It currently serves about 84 million
• a new terminal called T5X, expanding Terminal 2 and three new satellite terminals. It would close Terminal 3
• enhancement of local rail connections and improvements to Heathrow’s bus and coach stations
• diversion of the M25, which would involve a new road tunnel under the airport, and widening the motorway between junctions 14-15

The Arora Group said it accepted the government’s choice, adding it welcomed the decision to leave the option open for other firms to bid for the work.

“It’s imperative there is a clear and transparent process for selecting a promoter to ensure it best serves the interests of consumers,” the group said.

Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander said Heathrow was the UK’s only hub airport that supported trade, tourism and jobs.

“Today is another important step to enable a third runway and build on these benefits, setting the direction for the remainder of our work to get the policy framework in place for airport expansion,” she said.

“This will allow a decision on a third runway plan this parliament which meets our key tests including on the environment and economic growth.”

The government has already approved a string of other airport expansion plans, including a second runway at Gatwick Airport.

However, the Heathrow plans face opposition from environmental groups, politicians, and local residents.

Tony Bosworth, climate campaigner at Friends of the Earth, said the plan was “virtually the equivalent of bolting an airport the size of Gatwick onto Heathrow”.

“That would mean more noise and air pollution for local communities,” he said.

“Expanding Heathrow simply isn’t compatible with our legally binding climate targets, even if the government meets its hugely optimistic assumptions for emerging technologies, such as sustainable aviation fuels.”

The Mayor of London, Sir Sadiq Khan, said he thought the government’s backing of a new runway was a mistake.

“I want a better Heathrow, not a bigger one, particularly at a time where Gatwick’s going to be expanded, Stansted is going to be expanded, City Airport’s going to be expanded, Luton’s going to be expanded,” he said.

“I’m unclear how you get a new runway at Heathrow and it doesn’t cause environmental damage, noise pollution, air pollution being exacerbated.”

In reaching its decision, the government said that Heathrow’s runway plan was better developed and, while it required “major works” to the M25, the rival Arora scheme would also have had a “considerable impact” on the motorway.

It added that while the Heathrow proposal requires more land, it involves the acquisition of fewer houses around the airport than Arora’s plan.

The government also said the longer runway would provide “greater resilience and potential futureproofing for next-generation aircraft”.

A spokesperson for Heathrow welcomed the decision but said it needed “clarity as to how the crucial next phase of the project will be regulated”.

The airport is seeking reassurance that it will be allowed to increase its fees by enough to cover the cost of the planning application, which it says it will have to start very soon to meet the government’s timetable.

Earlier this month, the chief executive of British Airways, Sean Doyle, told industry members and MPs that Heathrow should be expanded without moving the M25.

“I think we should look at ways of potentially building a shorter runway,” he said.

Some airlines are concerned that the cost of building the third runway will make the airport more expensive for them, and ultimately for customers.

Three years ago, if someone needed to fix a leaky faucet or understand inflation, they usually did one of three things: typed the question into Google, searched YouTube for a how-to video or shouted desperately at Alexa for help.

Today, millions of people start with a different approach: They open ChatGPT and just ask.

I’m a professor and director of research impact and AI strategy at Mississippi State University Libraries. As a scholar who studies information retrieval, I see that this shift of the tool people reach for first for finding information is at the heart of how ChatGPT has changed everyday technology use.

Change in searching

The biggest change isn’t that other tools have vanished. It’s that ChatGPT has become the new front door to information. Within months of its introduction on Nov. 30, 2022, ChatGPT had 100 million weekly users. By late 2025, that figure had grown to 800 million. That makes it one of the most widely used consumer technologies on the planet.

Surveys show that this use isn’t just curiosity – it reflects a real change in behavior. A 2025 Pew Research Center study found that 34% of U.S. adults have used ChatGPT, roughly double the share found in 2023. Among adults under 30, a clear majority (58%) have tried it. An AP-NORC poll reports that about 60% of U.S. adults who use AI say they use it to search for information, making this the most common AI use case. The number rises to 74% for the under-30 crowd.

Traditional search engines are still the backbone of the online information ecosystem, but the kind of searching people do has shifted in measurable ways since ChatGPT entered the scene. People are changing which tool they reach for first.

For years, Google was the default for everything from “how to reset my router” to “explain the debt ceiling.” These basic informational queries made up a huge portion of search traffic. But these quick, clarifying, everyday “what does this mean” questions are the ones ChatGPT now answers faster and more cleanly than a page of links.

And people have noticed. A 2025 U.S. consumer survey found that 55% of respondents now use OpenAI’s ChatGPT or Google’s Gemini AI chatbots about tasks they previously would have asked Google search to help them with, with even higher usage figures for the U.K. Another analysis of more than 1 billion search sessions found that traffic from generative AI platforms is growing 165 times faster than traditional searches, and about 13 million U.S. adults have already made generative AI their go-to tool for online discovery.

This doesn’t mean people have stopped “Googling,” but it means ChatGPT has peeled off the kinds of questions for which users want a direct explanation instead of a list of links. Curious about a policy update? Need a definition? Want a polite way to respond to an uncomfortable email? ChatGPT is faster, feels more conversational and feels more definitive.

At the same time, Google isn’t standing still. Its search results look different than they did three years ago because Google started weaving its AI system Gemini directly into the top of the page. The “AI Overview” summaries that appear above traditional search links now instantly answer many simple questions – sometimes accurately, sometimes less so.

But either way, many people never scroll past that AI-generated snapshot. This fact combined with the impact of ChatGPT are the reasons the number of “zero-click” searches has surged. One report using Similarweb data found that traffic from Google to news sites fell from over 2.3 billion visits in mid-2024 to under 1.7 billion in May 2025, while the share of news-related searches ending in zero clicks jumped from 56% to 69% in one year.

Google search excels at pointing to a wide range of sources and perspectives, but the results can feel cluttered and designed more for clicks than clarity. ChatGPT, by contract, delivers a more focused and conversational response that prioritizes explanation over ranking. The ChatGPT response can lack the source transparency and multiple viewpoints often found in a Google search.

In terms of accuracy, both tools can occasionally get it wrong. Google’s strength lies in letting users cross-check multiple sources, while ChatGPT’s accuracy depends heavily on the quality of the prompt and the user’s ability to recognize when a response should be verified elsewhere.

Smart speakers and YouTube

The impact of ChatGPT has reverberated beyond search engines. Voice assistants, such as Alexa speakers and Google Home, continue to report high ownership, but that number is down slightly. One 2025 summary of voice-search statistics estimates that about 34% of people ages 12 and up own a smart speaker, down from 35% in 2023. This is not a dramatic decline, but the lack of growth may indicate a shift of more complex queries to ChatGPT or similar tools. When people want a detailed explanation, a step-by-step plan or help drafting something, a voice assistant that answers in a short sentence suddenly feels limited.

By contrast, YouTube remains a giant. As of 2024, it had approximately 2.74 billion users, with that number increasing steadily since 2010. Among U.S. teens, about 90% say they use YouTube, making it the most widely used platform in that age group. But what kind of videos people are looking for is changing.

People now tend to start with ChatGPT and then move to YouTube if they need the additional information a how-to video conveys. For many everyday tasks, such as “explain my health benefits” or “help me write a complaint email,” people ask ChatGPT for a summary, script or checklist. They head to YouTube only if they need to see a physical process.

You can see a similar pattern in more specialized spaces. Software engineers, for instance, have long relied on sites such as Stack Overflow for tips and pieces of software code. But question volume there began dropping sharply after ChatGPT’s release, and one analysis suggests overall traffic fell by about 50% between 2022 and 2024. When a chatbot can generate a code snippet and an explanation on demand, fewer people bother typing a question into a public forum.

So where does that leave us?

Three years in, ChatGPT hasn’t replaced the rest of the tech stack; it’s reordered it. The default search has shifted. Search engines are still for deep dives and complex comparisons. YouTube is still for seeing real people do real things. Smart speakers are still for hands-free convenience.

But when people need to figure something out, many now start with a chat conversation, not a search box. That’s the real ChatGPT effect: It didn’t just add another app to our phones – it quietly changed how we look things up in the first place.

When city leaders talk about making a town “smart,” they’re usually talking about urban digital twins. These are essentially high-tech, 3D computer models of cities. They are filled with data about buildings, roads and utilities. Built using precision tools like cameras and LiDAR – light detection and ranging – scanners, these twins are great at showing what a city looks like physically.

But in their rush to map the concrete, researchers, software developers and city planners have missed the most dynamic part of urban life: people. People move, live and interact inside those buildings and on those streets.

This omission creates a serious problem. While an urban digital twin may perfectly replicate the buildings and infrastructure, it often ignores how people use the parks, walk on the sidewalks, or find their way to the bus. This is an incomplete picture; it cannot truly help solve complex urban challenges or guide fair development.

To overcome this problem, digital twins will need to widen their focus beyond physical objects and incorporate realistic human behaviors. Though there is ample data about a city’s inhabitants, using it poses a significant privacy risk. I’m a public affairs and planning scholar. My colleagues and I believe the solution to producing more complete urban digital twins is to use synthetic data that closely approximates real people’s data.“

The privacy barrier

To build a humane, inclusive digital twin, it’s critical to include detailed data on how people behave. And the model should represent the diversity of a city’s population, including families with young children, disabled residents and retirees. Unfortunately, relying solely on real-world data is impractical and ethically challenging.

The primary obstacles are significant, starting with strict privacy laws. Rules such as the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR, often prevent researchers and others from widely sharing sensitive personal information. This wall of privacy stops researchers from easily comparing results and limits our ability to learn from past studies.

Furthermore, real-world data is often unfair. Data collection tends to be uneven, missing large groups of people. Training a computer model using data where low-income neighborhoods have sparse sensor coverage means the model will simply repeat and even magnify that original unfairness. To compensate for this, researchers can use the statistical technique of weighting the data in the models to make up for the underrepresentation.

Synthetic data offers a practical solution. It is artificial information generated by computers that mimics the statistical patterns of real-world data. This protects privacy while filling critical data gaps.

Synthetic data: Tool for fairer cities

Adding synthetic human dynamics fundamentally changes digital twins. It shifts them from static models of infrastructure to dynamic simulations that show how people live in the city. By generating synthetic patterns of walking, bus riding and public space use, planners can include a wider, more inclusive range of human actions in the models.

For example, Bogotá, Colombia, is using a digital twin to model its TransMilenio bus rapid transit system. Instead of relying only on limited or privacy-sensitive real-world sensor data, the city planners generated synthetic data to fill the digital twin. Such data artificially creates millions of simulated bus arrivals, vehicle speeds and queue lengths, all based on the statistical patterns – peak times, off-peak times – of actual TransMilenio operations.

This approach transforms urban planning in several crucial ways, making simulations more realistic and diverse. For example, planners can use synthetic pedestrian data to model how elderly and disabled residents would navigate a new urban design.

It also allows for risk-free testing of ideas. Planners can simulate diverse synthetic populations to see how a new flood evacuation plan would affect various groups, all without risking anyone’s safety or privacy in the real world.

Making digital twins trustworthy

For all the promises of synthetic data, it can only be helpful if planners can trust it. Since they base major decisions on these virtual worlds, the synthetic data must be proved to be a reliable replacement for real-world data. Planners can test this by checking to see if the main policy decisions they reach using the synthetic data are the same ones they would have made using real-world data that puts people’s privacy at risk. If the decisions match, the synthetic data is trustworthy enough to use for that planning task going forward.

Beyond technical checks, it’s important to consider fairness. This means routinely auditing the synthetic models to check for any hidden biases or underrepresentation across different groups. For example, planners can make sure an emergency evacuation plan in the urban digital twin works for elderly residents with mobility issues.

Most importantly, I believe planners should include their communities. Establishing citizen advisory boards and designing the synthetic data and simulation scenarios directly with the people who live in the city helps ensure that their experiences are accurately reflected.

By moving beyond static infrastructure to dynamic environments that include people’s behavior, synthetic data is set to play a critical role in urban planning. It will shape the resilient, inclusive and human-centered urban digital twins of the future.
