In our latest Climate Conversations, Clare Nasir looks at the impacts of extreme heat and Alex Burkill catches-up with lead author Dr Gillian Kay, Met Office Senior Scientist Watch the full episode ⤵️ youtu.be/r2HTVUPMrkI?si…

Fading out audio is one of the most CPU-intensive tasks you can possibly do! When numbers get really small, the number of CPU operations can explode 100-fold. In this LaurieWired video, we'll explore the IEEE 754 standard, the fight between Intel and DEC, and more!

GPT-5 Startup Hackathon with Cerebral Valley We gave startups 24 hours to build with GPT-5. Over 275 builders flew in from around the world to hack with our team and Kevin Weil 🇺🇸. 👇 Here’s who took home the win of DevDay tickets and over $85,000 in credits- thanks to our

Yikes! The operator picked the exact wrong moment to hand off the controller.

🚨 New preprint: How well do universal ML potentials perform in biomolecular simulations under realistic conditions? There's growing excitement around ML potentials trained on large datasets. But do they deliver in simulations of biomolecular systems? It’s not so clear. 🧵 1/

Just saw a sick live demo of wireless headphone hijacking that allows the attacker to perform the following without ever pairing the device. All the attacker has to do is be in range. - read/write arbitrary bytes to device - read headphones information - dump firmware info -

Vibe coded this game where you play against GPT-5 to guess where on Street View you are. These models are like super fucking CIA agents. Link to try at end of vid.

Liver cancer is expected to almost double between now and 2050 – but most cases are preventable Hepatitis B: preventable Hepatitis C: preventable Alcohol: preventable Obesity/metabolic dysfunction (MASH): preventable

Energy-Based Models for Predicting Mutational Effects on Proteins 1. This novel study introduces EBM-DDG, a novel energy-based model for predicting the effects of mutations on protein-protein interactions. The model leverages statistical mechanics to estimate the probability of

🇨🇳 This robot won the 1500m race at the World Humanoid Robot Games here in Beijing. Unitree's H1 completed the nearly mile-long race in only 6m34s.

Hinton ~1983 thought Boltzmann Machines > backprop, but debugged himself out of the infatuation Boltzmann Machines failed to learn, so he printed out weights, 8 cm thick, and inspected them for weeks it's the dreaded local minimum so 1 yr later, in desperation, he tried backprop

You can now quickly eval GPT-5 and reasoning efforts across your existing responses. With the built-in grader, compare responses to find the best model and reasoning effort for you. ⚡️👀

never recovered from seeing this worldmap a chinese guy named hao xiaoguang made in like 2002:

Robots are already like this, I couldn't believe it two years ago. The Robot Games in Beijing.

GPT-5 just casually did new mathematics. Sebastien Bubeck gave it an open problem from convex optimization, something humans had only partially solved. GPT-5-Pro sat down, reasoned for 17 minutes, and produced a correct proof improving the known bound from 1/L all the way to
