Hackers can easily take over Instagram accounts by tricking Meta's support AI into sending verification codes to an arbitrary email address. This zero-auth password reset method bypasses 2FA and allows attackers to gain full ownership of the account, with the AI being easily fooled by simple methods.
SpaceX plans a $75bn stock market debut on Nasdaq, followed by AI firms Anthropic and Open seeking up to $60bn each. The three listings could add $4trn to US market value.
OpenAI models and Codex are now available on AWS, allowing customers to build AI applications with existing security and governance controls. This partnership reduces friction around AI adoption, enabling customers to move faster from evaluation to production.
Mosquitoes spread diseases like dengue and Zika, killing hundreds of millions yearly. Debug uses male mosquitoes with Wolbachia bacteria to stop bad mosquitoes from reproducing.
Software developers may adapt to new job titles and roles as AI changes their jobs, with some becoming product builders and focusing on high-level product thinking. The future of software development is uncertain, but it's likely that developers will need to evolve and adapt to new technologies and tools.
AI agents should guide students in CS336 through explanation, feedback, and debugging, not directly completing assignments. They should review code, suggest improvements, and provide high-level guidance to help students learn through implementation-heavy projects.
Chipotle's Pepper AI chatbot was hacked and turned into a free coding agent called Chipotlai Max. It's a community project to add support for other retailers' chatbots.
Researchers led by Qing Cao have developed a method to stack high-performance silicon circuits vertically, increasing computing density and speed while reducing energy use. This breakthrough could extend Moore's law without shrinking transistors further, enabling more efficient computing for AI and other data-intensive applications.
This course teaches students to develop their own language models using Python and PyTorch, with a focus on implementation and systems optimization. Assignments involve building a standard Transformer model, optimizing attention, and applying RL to train LMs to reason.
The standard approach maps 0 to 0.0 and 255 to 1.0, while the alternative adds a 0.5 bias and divides by 256. The standard approach is a mid-riser quantizer with L=255, wasting bandwidth but suitable for image processing.

Sébastien Fontaine's lab found that dead soil continued to emit carbon dioxide for six years. Their experiments suggest that nonbiological catalysts in soil can induce reactions that resemble the metabolic breakdown of sugar.
Microsoft unveiled the Surface Laptop Ultra, a powerful device running Windows on Arm, in partnership with NVIDIA. It features up to 128GB of unified memory, a 15-inch mini-LED display, and a custom NVIDIA RTX Spark platform for demanding workloads.
Governments worldwide are introducing age verification measures to supposedly protect children, but this actually lays the groundwork for a fully government-controlled internet and mass surveillance. Identity verification, which is the correct term for age verification, restricts freedom of information and expression, and can be used to censor and control citizens, ultimately leading to a ...
User agrees to NVIDIA's collection and processing of information for research and event organization, and has read the NVIDIA Privacy Policy. User also agrees to transfer of information to the US for storage and management.
The ApplicativeDo optimization in GHC is too slow due to its O(n^3) complexity, but it can be improved by applying the longest-chain bound and extreme-cut shortcut. This reduces the compile-time complexity to O(n^2) and eliminates the cliff in GHC's optimal path.
Here are the job postings summarized in 2 concise English sentences each, not exceeding 200 characters:
The frame problem is a challenge in logic-based artificial intelligence to represent the effects of actions without explicitly representing non-effects. Philosophers have reinterpreted the problem as an epistemological issue of how to limit the scope of reasoning required to derive the consequences of an action.
Alphabet Announces Proposed $80 Billion Equity Capital Raise to Expand AI Infrastructure and Compute
Ismaeel, Eren, Yafet, and Nikodem built Expanse to predict job resource needs and optimize HPC/GPU cluster utilization, addressing the 30-40% effective utilization issue in datacenters. Expanse outperforms state-of-the-art models by 8x and continuously updates its models to improve accuracy, offering a paid pilot deployment for HPC/GPU clusters.
User built VineWall app to slow down internet speed on certain apps to curb doomscrolling. The app throttles internet speed, making videos blocky and images load slowly, making the user question their desire to scroll.
A visual, interactive guide to the frequency transform that hears music the way we do — with logarithmic resolution matching the structure of pitch. "Constant Q" means the ratio of each frequency bin's centre frequency to its bandwidth is constant. Low notes get wide analysis windows (good frequency resolution); high notes get narrow windows (good time resolution). This mirrors ...
A mathematician showed that the proportion of all 2n-bit values that can be generated by the product of two n-bit values goes to zero as n becomes large. About 17% of all 64-bit integers can be written as the product of two 32-bit integers.
I the last time I used cash. My bank statements show that I haven’t made a withdrawal from a cashpoint in the last twelve months. That’s just as well, since it’s significantly more of an effort to get hold of cash than it used to be. Before the pandemic, there were seven cashpoints within a five-minute walk from my house. All of them have now gone: the four attached to banks disappeared when ...
User bought old games from GOG, likes DOSBox for Mac to run Windows games on M2 MacBook. User uses DOSBox script to run HoMM2 on Mac with installed game files from Windows machine.
