GUANGZHOU — Leading Chinese search provider Baidu opened its self-developed metaverse to the public Monday, allowing users to interact and visit virtual locations through avatars.
Microsoft is tinkering with the idea of a triple-panel Surface handheld, a “Surface Trio”, if you will. However, apart from offering an additional display, it differs in another significant way too.
The world’s capacity to generate electricity from renewable sources such as wind, solar and hydro is on track to set a new record in 2021, with installations expected to keep accelerating in the following years.
A team of Viennese researchers has developed what likely amounts to the future of classical computing: Intelligent transistors. By tapping into the element Germanium, these transistors are much more efficient and can reduce the number of transistors required for the same computational work by a staggering 85%.

Probabilistic modelling
Four major steps are entailed in generating successful probabilistic modelling through the Bean Machine. The modelling is based on generative techniques, the data collected from Python dictionaries where it is associated with random variables. The learning step improves the model’s knowledge based on observations, and the results are stored for further analysis.
Through probabilistic modelling, engineers and data scientists can account for random events in future predictions while measuring different uncertainties. This method is preferred because it offers uncertainty estimation, expressivity, and interpretability facilities. Let’s discuss these.
We are publishing a detailed study of a 280-billion parameter transformer language model called Gopher, a study of ethical and social risks associated with large language models, and a paper investigating a new architecture with better training efficiency.
I seek to recognize Einstein before everyone knows that they are an Einstein. There left us 1 spot at the codegen team (works on Codex 2.0) and the language team (works on GPT-4). https://grnh.se/68b9465f4us
At the turn of the 20th Century, Thomas Edison invented a battery with the unusual quirk of producing hydrogen. Now, 120 years later, the battery is coming into its own.
