Learn more about the role of your stomach and learn more about the signs and symptoms of stomach cancer that you should be aware of.
The stomach is part of the body’s digestive system, located in the upper abdomen.

Brain scans of a 72-year-old man diagnosed with a highly aggressive form of cancer known as a glioblastoma have revealed a remarkable regression in his tumor’s size within days of receiving an infusion of an innovative new treatment.
Though the outcomes of two other participants with similar diagnoses were somewhat less positive, the case’s success still bodes well for the search for a way to effectively cure what is currently an incurable disease.
Glioblastomas are typically about as deadly as cancers can get. Emerging from supporting cells inside the central nervous system, they can rapidly develop into malignant masses that claim up to 95 percent of patient lives within five years.
Microsoft and OpenAI might be concocting a $100 billion supercomputer to accelerate their artificial intelligence models.

The data surfaced online about two weeks ago and involve customer information from 2019 or earlier. There was no impact on operations, the company says.
Demis Hassabis, CEO and one of three founders of Google’s artificial intelligence (AI) subsidiary DeepMind, has been awarded a knighthood in the U.K. for “services to artificial intelligence.”
Ian Hogarth, chair of the U.K. government’s recently launched AI Safety Institute and previously founder of music startup Songkick, was awarded Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) for services to AI; as was Matt Clifford, AI adviser to the U.K. government and co-founder of super–early-stage investor Entrepreneur First.
Artificial intelligence (AI) has introduced a dynamic shift in various sectors, most notably by deploying autonomous agents capable of independent operation and decision-making. These agents, powered by large language models (LLMs), have significantly broadened the scope of tasks that can be automated, ranging from simple data processing to complex problem-solving scenarios. However, as the capabilities of these agents expand, so do the challenges associated with their deployment and integration.
Within this evolving landscape, a major hurdle has been the efficient management of LLM-based agents. The primary issues revolve around allocating computational resources, maintaining interaction context, and integrating agents with varying capabilities and functions. Traditional approaches often lead to bottlenecks and underutilization of resources, undermining these intelligent systems’ potential efficiency and effectiveness.
A research team from Rutgers University has developed the AIOS (Agent-Integrated Operating System), a pioneering LLM agent operating system designed to streamline the deployment and operation of LLM-based agents. This system is engineered to enhance resource allocation, enable the concurrent execution of multiple agents, and maintain a coherent context throughout agent interactions, optimizing agent operations’ overall performance and efficiency.
Generative models for chemical structures are often trained to create output in the common SMILES notation. Michael Skinnider shows that training models with the goal of avoiding the generation of incorrect SMILES strings is detrimental to learning other chemical properties and that allowing models to generate incorrect molecules, which can be easily removed post hoc, leads to better performing models.
Ever wonder where all the active supermassive black holes are in the universe? Now, with the largest quasar catalog yet, you can see the locations of 1.3 million quasars in 3D.
The catalog, Quaia, can be accessed here.
“This quasar catalog is a great example of how productive astronomical projects are,” says David Hogg, study co-author and computational astrophysicist at the Flatiron Institute, in a press release. “Gaia was designed to measure stars in our galaxy, but it also found millions of quasars at the same time, which give us a map of the entire universe.” By mapping and seeing where quasars are across the universe, astrophysicists can learn more about how the universe evolved, insights into how supermassive black holes grow, and even how dark matter clumps together around galaxies. Researchers published the study this week in The Astrophysical Journal.
