A study in the Lancet Oncology journal found that AI-supported breast cancer screenings saved radiologists time that could be used for more complex diagnoses.
The animals were thought to have gone extinct before the dinosaurs arrived on the scene.
Brian Kennedy, one of the lead scientists of NOAA’s deep sea expedition, said the stalked crinoid “are these big beautiful flower looking animals, but they grow on this long stalk. They’re called sea lilies, and that’s really what they look like a lot of times.”
“These were thought extinct, we thought they were a relic of pre-dinosaur times, and now we find they are one of the most common organisms in the deep sea.”
A process of surgically joining the circulatory systems of a young and old mouse slows the aging process at the cellular level and lengthens the lifespan of the older animal by up to 10%.
Published in the journal Nature Aging, a study led by researchers at Duke University Medical Center in Durham, North Carolina, found that the longer the animals shared circulation, the longer the anti-aging benefits lasted once the two were no longer connected.
The findings suggest that the young benefit from a cocktail of components and chemicals in their blood that contributes to vitality, and these factors could potentially be isolated as therapies to speed healing, rejuvenate the body, and add years to an older individual’s life.
Another day, another step closer to the normalization of build-your-own AI chatbot partners.
Per Decrypt, top-shelf Silicon Valley VC firm Andreessen Horowitz last week took to the developer site GitHub to lay out detailed instructions on how to build an AI companion bot from scratch. The VC outfit has a lot of money in various AI ventures, the billion-dollar AI companion startup Character. AI included; now, it seems that the folks at the firm are so enthusiastic about companion bots that they’re encouraging curious developers out there to start DIYing versions for themselves — and among several other potential use cases, it feels notable that romantic partnership was listed as use case number one.
“There are many possible use cases for these companions — romantic (AI girlfriends / boyfriends), friendship, entertainment, coaching, etc,” reads the description, noting elsewhere that the “project is purely intended to be a developer tutorial and starter stack for those curious on how chatbots are built.”
Transforming cars that go from tearing up the tarmac to soaring through the skies at the touch of a button. It sounds like science fiction, but that might be the future we’re looking at, as America’s regulatory body for commercial flight and transportation, the Federal Aviation Administration, certified to test a bona fide flying car.
The vehicle — which has a flying range of around 177km on a full charge — is the brainchild of Alef Automotive, a Californian startup backed by high-profile venture capitalist Tim Draper (whose other seed investments include Tesla and SpaceX).
It’s not yet clear how much the property owner will be billed over the sign.
X and Musk did not immediately respond to requests for comment by Insider on Tuesday, nor did the reps for the landlord of the company’s headquarters, SRI Nine Market Square LLC, an affiliate of real estate investment firm Shorenstein.
Musk, the billionaire owner of the social media company now rebranded as X, had the huge “X” logo put on the roof of the company’s headquarters on Friday, prompting a slew of complaints from angry neighbors.
After the tragic implosion of the Titan submersible. OceanGate’s co-founder is all prepped up for another venture. The co-founder of OceanGate, Guillermo Söhnlein has grand aspirations for future. By 2050, he would like to see 1,000 humans living in the clouds of Venus.
If there’s one thing the Covid pandemic taught us, it’s that viruses shouldn’t be underestimated.
People are, therefore, taking note after scientists discovered a whole new range of giant virus-like particles (VLP) that have taken on “previously unimaginable shapes and forms.”
The microscopic agents, resembling everything from stars to monsters, were found in just a few handfuls of forest soil.
