TO AVOID DATA COLLAPSE, Algorithmic Input models must have human-generated inputs, but those inputs are “running out” if only those existing on the internet are used.
There is no such thing as unlimited data.

Virgin Galactic Launches Crewed Galactic 07 Mission
Virgin Galactic is using its SpaceShipTwo to launch the final commercial flight of VSS Unity. This is the 17th flight of the VSS Unity, before the company plans to upgrade the vehicle.
The commercial crew on this mission is composed of a researcher affiliated with Axiom Space, two private Americans, and a private Italian. The Virgin Galactic crew on Unity will be Commander Nicola Pecile and pilot Jameel Janjua.
The ‘Galactic 07’ autonomous rack-mounted research payloads will include a Purdue University experiment designed to study propellant slosh in fuel tanks of maneuvering spacecraft, as well as a UC Berkeley payload testing a new type of 3D printing.
Expected Takeoff: 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time.

Apple is about to enter the world of AI and nothing will ever be the same
But behind that wave of unreliable garbage, some amazing features emerge from using AI models. Apple has the chance to depict itself as the adult in the room, a company committed to using AI for features that make its customers’ lives better–not competing to do the best unreproducible magic trick on stage.
In doing so, it risks being seen as dowdy and behind. But if Apple can see beyond the latest tech-industry hype cycle–and it’s generally good at doing that–it can bet on iPhone users being more interested in real features than impractical nonsense.
Historically, Apple has been a company with a very strong philosophy about new technologies: they should be applied to solving the problems of real people. Most tech companies have historically had this backward: they take delivery of some whizzy new technology fresh off a manufacturer’s conveyor belt and shove it into a product. The result tends to be products that are solutions desperately searching for problems.
Integrated photonic neuromorphic computing: opportunities and challenges
Neuromorphic photonics is an emerging computing platform that addresses the growing computational demands of modern society. We review advances in integrated neuromorphic photonics and discuss challenges associated with electro-optical conversions, implementations of nonlinearity, amplification and processing in the time domain.
Challenging Previous Understanding — Physicists Propose a Wave-Based Theory of Heat Transport
Physicists have linked the Doppler effect to heat transport, suggesting wave-like properties in biological tissues, with implications for medical and cosmetic technologies.
When a train approaches or an ambulance with its siren blaring nears us, we hear the sound with an increased frequency, which gradually decreases. As it passes, the frequency changes abruptly to a lower one, then decreases further. This commonly encountered phenomenon, known as the Doppler effect, can offer valuable insights into a seemingly unrelated field: heat transport.
The Physics of Heat Transport.
Hugging Face and Pollen Robotics show off first project: an open source robot that does chores
As for how Hugging Face’s Le Robot team ended up collaborating with Pollen Robotics, Cadene told VentureBeat that it was a natural alliance born out of geographic proximity and overlapping areas of research interest.
“We closely follow Pollen Robotics work and are amazed by their robots,” Cadene wrote. “We were looking for humanoid robots. They were looking for end-to-end training software. So the collaboration between Pollen with their robot Reachy and Hugging Face with LeRobot was natural, especially [since] they are located two hours away from our [Le Robot] lab in Paris, so we just visited them for a few days.”
Pollen Robotics has a rich history of developing accessible and open-source technologies for real-world applications. The company began in 2013 with Poppy, what it says was the first 3D printed open-source humanoid robot, designed for research purposes.

Elon Musk plans ‘world’s most powerful’ supercomputer’ in Memphis
Memphis may get most powerful super computer yet.
Memphis, Tennessee, may host the world’s largest supercomputer, the “Gigafactory of Compute.”:
The Memphis Shelby County Economic Development Growth Engine (EDGE), Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), and governing authorities hold the key to finalizing the project. If approved, it would be the largest investment in Memphis history.
According to Memphis Mayor Paul Young, the city boasts “an ideal site, ripe for investment,” coupled with a skilled workforce that can “keep up with the pace required to land this transformational project, the Business Insider reported.
The supercomputer itself is expected to be a technological marvel. It will be powered by 100,000 Nvidia’s H100 GPUs, currently some of the most sought-after chips in the AI industry, as reported by The Information.
