We really should have solar eclipses more often

Tranquilidad. Nuestro turno llegará el 12 de agosto de 2026.

Here's how the #EclipseSolar2024 looked from space so far, watch for the shadow zooming in on the left-hand side of the video, then passing up and over North America!

As well as looking cool, the path of the shadow is a great demonstration of how the Earth isn't flat😃

Happy #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience ! 🚀

How can we check LLM outputs in domains where we are not experts?

We find that non-expert humans answer questions better after reading debates between expert LLMs.
Moreover, human judges are more accurate as experts get more persuasive. 📈
