Annihilationism is the belief that unbelievers will not experience an eternity of suffering in hell, but will instead be “extinguished.” Dr. Bart Ehrman discusses why Jesus and Paul believed in annihilation. Full video: • Exploring Early Christian Narratives…

Dr. Bart Ehrman is the James A. Gray Distinguished Professor of Religious Studies at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, where he has taught thousands of students and won numerous awards.

Bart’s work has been featured in The New York Times, the Washington Post, the Times Literary Supplement, the New Yorker, Time, and Newsweek; he has appeared on National Geographic, CNN, the BBC, NBC’s Dateline, the Discovery Channel, Fresh Air with Terry Gross, the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, the Sam Harris Podcast, and many other top media outlets.

Delgado Podcast features discussions with academics, authors, artists and people who challenge our thinking and help us grow in more compassion. This season is focused on the ways our spirituality, faith, and/or religious identities impact our understanding of justice, race, gender, sexuality, mental health, and religious texts.

Scientists put their heads together for an insane medical breakthrough.

Neuroscience and biomedical engineering startup BrainBridge announced that it has created an AI-mechanized system for performing head transplants.

The procedure would graft a head onto the body of a brain-dead donor, maintaining the memories, cognitive abilities and consciousness of the transplanted individual.

I found this on NewsBreak: #Design

Leveraging advanced computational techniques in physical sciences has become vital for accelerating scientific discovery. This involves integrating large language models (LLMs) and simulations to enhance hypothesis generation, experimental design, and data analysis. Automating these processes aims to streamline and democratize access to cutting-edge research tools, pushing the boundaries of scientific knowledge and improving efficiency across various scientific domains.

Researchers face a significant challenge in effectively simulating observational feedback and integrating it with theoretical models in physical sciences. Traditional methods often need a universal approach that can be applied across various scientific fields, leading to inefficiencies and limiting the potential for innovative discoveries. The need for a more comprehensive and adaptable framework is evident to address this issue and advance scientific inquiry.

I found this on NewsBreak:

TSMC is the world’s largest chipmaker, and it produces a massive percentage of the world’s advanced computer chips—by some estimates over the past few years, even around 90%. What happens if something were to happen in that part of the world to disturb this chipmaking ability? It’d be catastrophic, of course, but TSMC and its main machine supplier, Dutch company ASML, say the machines wouldn’t fall into hostile hands.

Citing people close to the matter, Bloomberg reports both TSMC and ASML have ways to disable the lithographic machines located in Taiwan. This kill switch would be able to be remotely activated, should such a drastic action ever be required.
