Here’s a surprising fact.
Most people don’t lie most of the time. And now there is good cross-cultural research to back this up.

Algae Biofuel Rises From Grave To Haunt Fossil Fuel Stakeholders
Algae biofuel has unlimited supplies that is also regenerative in its supply chain. It can reproduce nearly indefinitely bringing infinite supplies instead of oil which is dependent on earth this could even be used in space.
After ExxonMobil walks away, algae biofuel gets another shot at success and the US Department of Energy is here for it.
A New Navy Weapon Actually Stops You From Talking
Developed in 2019 but only just discovered, this US Navy device can make people stop talking, apparently.
New brain-like transistor goes ‘beyond machine learning’
Scientists have designed a transistor that stores and processes information like the human brain and can perform cognitive tasks that most artificial intelligence (AI) systems today struggle with.
This technology, known as a “synaptic transistor,” mimics the architecture of the human brain — in which the processing power and memory are fully integrated and found in the same place. This differs from conventional computing architecture, in which the processor and memory are physically separate components.
MIT AI cracks code to defeat bacteria that kills 10,000 in US yearly
Scientists have now leveraged deep learning to discover a new class of compounds that can kill a drug-resistant bacterium.
Using deep learning models, scientists have identified a new class of antibiotic compounds that can work against resistant strains like MRSA.
Using sequences of life-events to predict human lives
Abstract Here we represent human lives in a way that shares structural similarity to language, and we exploit this similarity to adapt natural language processing techniques to examine the evolution and predictability of human lives based on detailed event sequences.
Using registry data from Denmark, Lehmann et al. create individual-level trajectories of events related to health, education, occupation, income and address, and also apply transformer models to build rich embeddings of life-events and to predict outcomes ranging from time of death to personality.
The Year That A.I. Came for Culture
The events of 2023 showed that A.I. doesn’t need to be that good in order to do damage.
