This is my latest thought 💭 post about humans and machines and why SymbioticAI (not control AI) is the way forward for humanity in the era of super intelligent machines.

Maybe interesting 🤔.

A recently published research paper from scientists at Anthropic demonstrates a method for determining how much “influence” individual instances of training data have on the generation of outputs by large language models.

Ford CEO Jim Farley experienced the headache of electric-vehicle charging firsthand and acknowledged there was much to do to improve the experience for his customers.

Farley hit the road in an F-150 Lightning last week, traversing Route 66 and the American West to put the electric truck through its paces. He documented his trip on LinkedIn and X, the social-media website formerly known as Twitter.

A preference for “universal masses” 9 and 16 times the mass of our Sun have been identified in the gravitational-wave events detected so far.

Columbia researchers have identified brain injuries that may underlie hidden consciousness, a puzzling phenomenon in which brain-injured patients are unable to respond to simple commands, making them appear unconscious despite having some level of awareness.

“Our study suggests that patients with hidden consciousness can hear and comprehend verbal commands, but they cannot carry out those commands because of injuries in brain circuits that relay instructions from the brain to the muscles,” says study leader Jan Claassen, MD, associate professor of neurology at Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons and chief of critical care and hospitalist neurology at NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Irving Medical Center.

The findings could help physicians more quickly identify brain-injured patients who might have hidden consciousness and better predict which patients are likely to recover with rehabilitation.

Do you prefer originals to remakes, or the whacky option compared to something more relevant? Well, a new study published in the journal American Psychologist suggests that people more inclined towards original ideas are likely to be more inventive themselves.

Creative mechanisms in the brain are complex and largely unknown – and scientists are still learning how creativity works and what motivates it. But a French team of cognitive neuroscientists are trying to shed the light on this process.

Neuroscientists currently agree that the creative process has two parts: coming up with ideas and then assessing them to choose the good ones.

Some elements of travel are the same for everyone. Clothing and toiletries, for instance, are generally a packing staple. Many people bring prescription drugs for chronic conditions, too.

But what if you have cancer? Are there any specific travel considerations you should keep in mind? We went to neuro-oncologist Ashley Aaroe, M.D., for advice.

Here are seven questions she recommends asking your care team before a trip.

The Discord.io custom invite service has temporarily shut down after suffering a data breach exposing the information of 760,000 members.

Discord.io is not an official Discord site but a third-party service allowing server owners to create custom invites to their channels. Most of the community was built around the service’s Discord server, with over 14,000 members.

Yesterday, a person known as ‘Akhirah’ began offering the Discord.io database for sale on the new Breached hacking forums. As proof of the theft, the threat actor shared four user records from the database.
