Time for another episode of Curiosity Daily from Discovery, the place where you get

smarter in just a few minutes. My name is Nate. Thanks so much for

joining us here today at Curiosity. I'm

Cali. Today you'll learn about an AI designed window film that could keep your

house cool. The mysterious ways Mars causes deep sea erosion on Earth and how playing the

didgeridoo could help treat sleep apnea.

All right, let's satisfy some curiosity.

Imagine a building with no windows. It's just a block with a door in front.

Yeah, that's not exactly a building I'd want to go into. I mean, it's dark, it's musty, and I'm just sort of imagining bright fluorescent light and stale air.

Also seems like a place in a movie someone might get murdered.

Or like a Minecraft building that you've, you know, there's no light to them.

Before you've learned how to use glass.

Uh-huh.

Yeah. Well, windows literally make or break of space, don't they? Natural light

feels airy and bright. And windows offer you a glimpse into the world outside.

They literally open you up to the universe. But there is a downside. On a hot day they can

act like furnaces making your space just unbearably warm. Right and if you close the

blinds to cool the place down what's the point of having windows in the first

place? I mean nothing's as

depressing as a dark room on a sunny day. So this is a problem that engineers at

Notre Dame have been working on and with the help of quantum physics and

machine learning they think they've come up with a pretty high-tech solution.
