This is an educational video. It does suggest a bit of a solution and it’s a good reason to be careful about eating snow maybe or drinking rain water? I’m no expert but now I’m wary though I haven’t heard of anyone getting sick from doing so.
Bacteria are everywhere, including clouds, and the rain that falls from them. Not only can they survive the harsh environment and hitchhike across continents, they can share their genes, too. Including the ones that make them resistant to antibiotics.
I think an AI girlfriend or boyfriend would mess up your social skills and emotions/mental health. The article mentions other issues as well. It could turn some into “incels” meaning feeling resentful towards real women and possibly violent, not just domestic violence in my opinion but I’m not an expert but I’ve read about that a bit.
Chatbots such as Eva AI are getting better at mimicking human interaction but some fear they feed into unhealthy beliefs around gender-based control and violence.
I thought you could already use it through the web on your phone? In any case, I have an account in Windows under Chrome.
Two months after launching for iOS, ChatGPT is available to “pre-order” for Android users who want to take the ubiquitous chatbot on the go. If it’s anywhere as popular as the iPhone version, expect to see some big numbers over the next few weeks.
Of course any mobile user can access ChatGPT or other OpenAI tools via the web interface, but the superior experience of a dedicated app has proven extremely compelling, to put it lightly. iPhone users downloaded it half a million times in the first week, impressing everyone until Threads came along and blew it out of the water.
The ChatGPT app on Android looks to be more or less identical to the iOS one in functionality, meaning it gets most if not all of the web-based version’s features. You should be able to sync your conversations and preferences across devices, too — so if you’re iPhone at home and Android at work, no worries.
Chinese company Unitree has opened pre-orders on its second-gen robot dog companion. The Go2 can follow you around at jogging speeds, perform some wild gymnastic feats, and even talk to you through a GPT-enabled system that writes code on the fly.
As far as basic stats, this little robo-dog weighs about 15 kg (33 lb), stands about 40 cm (16 in) tall, and is about 70 cm (28 in) from … where the nose would be to where the tail would be? Its aluminum/high-strength plastic chassis can carry more than half its own weight as payload if necessary, and it’ll run for an hour or two on a battery charge.
And I do mean run; the US$1,600 base model can manage 5.6 mph (9 km/h), and the $2,800 Pro model ups that to 7.8 mph (12.6 km/h), so it’ll easily keep up with most folk on a jog.

Researchers have identified the processes that cause gray hair and have done experiments to reverse it. And believe it or not, we’ve had some of these options for decades.

A team led by Stanford Medicine researchers has mapped the human intestine down to the level of individual cells, revealing how neighborhoods of different cell types work together for healthy digestion.
Research on “micro-nature” — the incorporation of small, affordable natural elements into workplaces — demonstrates its positive impact on employee performance and well-being. Studies show exposure to nature at work boosted productivity, helpfulness, and creativity, with no evidence of negative effects. Recommendations include both real and artificial nature, extending beyond the office environment, utilizing underused spaces, and encouraging nature exposure outside work hours. The integration of nature in workplaces enhances overall business performance.

Simple acts like adding flowers to the break room or landscaping the area outside employees’ windows can foster a healthier work environment.
Generative AI is gaining momentum across various sectors due to its potential to streamline workflows, automate creative processes and unlock new opportunities. From art and entertainment to healthcare and manufacturing, industries are recognizing its transformative capabilities.
It’s clear that generative AI is on the path to becoming a commodity. However, not all generative AI is the same, and it’s expected to split into two distinct categories: horizontal and vertical. Horizontal AI models, such as ChatGPT and Google Bard, are becoming increasingly ubiquitous—finding applications across various industries due to their generalized capabilities. On the other hand, vertical AI models are designed to be more specialized and tailored to specific industries—offering significant and more immediate ROI.
This distinction between horizontal and vertical AI models highlights the growing need for industry-specific solutions as businesses seek to leverage the power of AI to optimize their operations and unlock new opportunities for growth.
Children with food protein-induced allergic proctocolitis experienced impaired growth during their first year of life, but this resolves as the disease resolves, according to a study published in Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology.
Meanwhile, children with IgE-mediated food allergy (IgE-FA) experienced impaired growth after age 1 year, Rachael Rosow,BA, clinical research coordinator for pediatric food allergy at Massachusetts General Hospital at the time of the study and now a medical student at Frank H. Netter M.D. School of Medicine at Quinnipiac University, and colleagues wrote.
The 804 children followed from birth through age 2 years in the study included 134 (17%) who developed food protein-induced allergic proctocolitis (FPIAP), 50 (6%) who developed an IgE-FA and 15 (2%) who developed both.
