CROCCP2 acts as a human-specific modifier of cilia dynamics and mTOR signaling to promote expansion of cortical progenitors

Van Heurck et al. identify CROCCP2, a hominid-specific gene duplicate, as a human-specific modifier of neurogenesis in the developing cerebral cortex. They find that CROCCP2 is necessary and sufficient to enhance human cortical progenitor amplification and acts by decreasing primary cilia dynamics and enhancing the mTOR pathway.

‘Common Sense’ Test Could Lead to Smarter AI

The goal of achieving what is called artificial general intelligence — or the capacity of an engineered system to display human-like general intelligence — is still some time off into the future. Nevertheless, experts in the field of AI have no doubt accomplished some major milestones along the way, including developing AI capable of deep neural reasoning, tactile reasoning, and even AI with rudimentary social skills.

Now, in yet another step toward AI with more human-like intelligence, researchers from IBM, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University have developed a series of tests that would evaluate an AI’s ability to use a machine version of “common sense” — or a basic ability to perceive, understand, and judge in a manner that is shared by nearly all humans.

San Francisco police to soon deploy robots that can kill

The organization says the machines would only be used in extreme situations where lives are at stake.

Supervisors in San Francisco voted Tuesday to allow city police to use potentially lethal remote-controlled robots in emergency situations, according to a report by Mission Local.

A dystopian future?

The vote was eight for three against, with opponents saying the move would lead to the further dangerous and unwanted militarization of a police force already too aggressive with minorities.

FIFA World Cup’s high-tech ball just invalidated Ronaldo’s ‘record-breaking’ goal

The soccer star had claimed his head brushed the ball in Portugal’s opening goal against Uruguay.

FIFA has now provided an explanation for why Portugal’s opening goal against Uruguay was not awarded to five-time Player of the Year Cristiano Ronaldo.

The 37-year-old, the world’s most recognized soccer player, claimed his head brushed the ball during the opening goal against the opponents in Monday’s encounter of the FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
