Microsoft made a multibillion dollar investment in OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, reigniting an old rivalry with Google. The move also set off an “AI arms race” that puts Google at risk. FT explains.
Recycled steel scrap is a low-emitting source of the metal – but we must improve how it is collected and produced in order to help decarbonize the steel industry.
Even a simple movement like pushing a button sends ripples of activity throughout networks of neurons spanning across the brain, new University of Oregon research shows.
The finding highlights just how complex the human brain is, challenging the simplified textbook picture of distinct brain areas dedicated to specific functions.
“It’s really well known that that the primary motor cortex controls movement output,” said Alex Rockhill, a graduate student in the lab of human physiology professor Nicki Swann. “But there’s a lot more to movement than this one brain area.”
“The future of AI is much bigger than anyone realizes — not just in terms of technology, but in its impact on society as a whole.” — Mark Zuckerberg
Prompt engineering is a process of crafting optimized input texts (prompts) to generate accurate results from the artificial intelligence model. By the launch of ChatGPT, prompt engineering is the booming term in internet. Actually what is its deep meaning and is it be the future of AI. Prompt engineering is a relatively new field that focuses on the design and development of systems that can generate human-like prompts, such as text, speech, and images. These prompts can be used to interact with users in a more natural and intuitive way, making it easier for them to understand and use AI-powered systems.
By the advance of artificial intelligence models like ChatGPT, midjourney and stable diffusion which are enriched with high potential people are confused how to use it and what are the optimized prompts that could be used to extract the full potential of these models. One key aspect of prompt engineering is data preprocessing and preparation. This includes cleaning, normalizing, and formatting the data used to train the model, so that it is in the right format and of high quality.
Cyber attackers around the world are looking at alternate file attachment types to trap users with phishing and malware attacks, according to a report by Bleeping Computer. The alternate attachment types come in the form of online, open-source file attachments, and the latest type that has now been spotted includes Microsoft OneNote files. According to the report, hackers are exploiting OneNote attachments in emails to trick users into downloading malware.
The report stated that hackers switched to OneNote, Microsoft’s online note-taking alternative to Word, after the company disabled ‘macros’ by default in email attachments. The latter, which refer to code snippets that execute a command upon a user opening the email attachment, were long since used by attackers to get users to download malware attachments.
By using macros, hackers would store malware within Microsoft Word or Excel documents. Once a user opened the attachment, the malware would get triggered automatically. These malware, in turn, could be used for a wide range of attacks — including remote code execution, botnets, financial or identity theft, or even spyware.
A group of McKinsey’s technology practice leaders have taken a look at what 2023 might hold, and offer a few new year’s tech resolutions to consider: 1) Look for combinatorial trends, in which the sum impact of new technologies create new opportunities. 2) Prep boards for tipping point technologies. 3) Relieve the bureaucratic burden on your engineers to increase their productivity. 4) Look for new opportunities in the cloud. 5) Take advantage of how the cloud is changing security. 6) Take advantage of decentralized AI capabilities — and what this technology might mean for your business model.

Six trends that will define the next year, according to McKinsey experts.
NASA announced that its engineers have developed and tested the agency’s first full-scale rotating detonation rocket engine (RDRE).
The agency said that the design could significantly change how future propulsion systems are built. The supersonic rocket engine uses detonation, with the design producing more power while using less fuel than today’s propulsion systems.
It has the potential to power both human landers and interplanetary vehicles to deep space destinations, like the moon or Mars.
An astronomer has captured “extraordinary” footage of an asteroid that made an “extremely close” approach to the Earth on Thursday.
The space rock, known as 2023 BU, zoomed over the southern tip of South America yesterday, while it was only around 2,200 miles above the surface of the Earth.
This is one of the closest approaches of an near-Earth object ever recorded. Data from NASA’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies showed that the flyby of 2023 BU was the fourth-nearest of more than 35,000 past and future Earth close approaches in the 300-year period from 1900 to 2200.

Numerous labs across the world have shown that inflammation causes reduced motivation and anhedonia, a core symptom of depression, by affecting the brain’s reward pathways.
