The research could be used to produce repellents for the insects.

Anyone who has ever been bitten by a mosquito has wondered why are these insects attracted to me? Now, Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers may have an answer, according to a press release published last month.

“Understanding the molecular biology of mosquito odor-sensing is key to developing new ways to avoid bites and the burdensome diseases they cause,” said Christopher Potter, Ph.D.

Perhaps, human consciousness can be fully understood one day.

Researchers from Johns Hopkins and Cambridge universities have created the first-ever map of the wiring patterns of every neuron in the fruit fly larval brain.

Neurons in an organism’s nervous system, including the brain, are linked to one another by synapses.

European Space Agency’s suggestions were made for implementing time zones on the Moon.

During a meeting at the European Space Agency’s ESTEC technology center, reports Endgadget, in the Netherlands last year, proposals were made to implement a standard time zone for the moon. This is because people are again interested in returning to the nearest celestial body.

At present, public and private bodies are working on returning to the moon in different parts of the world and in different time zones. This can make it harder for people planning their missions to the moon over the next few years to work together.

GPT-4 will offer videos and could function admirably in sensory modes in addition to text.

GPT-4 will be released “next week,” Microsoft Germany’s CTO, Andreas Braun, has announced, sparking excitement in the artificial intelligence (AI) community.

The ground-breaking large language model (LLM) series, which includes GPT-4, will possibly allow videos and more, according to German media reports.

Musk’s companies have bought 3,500 acres of land in Austin. That’s four times the size of Central Park.

Elon Musk may be the sitting CEO of multiple companies but will likely add another title to his name very soon: Town Owner. As per a report from The Wall Street Journal.

Google executives had blocked the AI chatbot from public testing, citing concerns that it did not meet company standards.

Years ago, Daniel De Freitas and Noam Shazeer, engineers at Google, had developed a ChatGPT-like conversational chatbot that could talk about philosophy and TV shows and make pun jokes.

Conversational chatbots are the shiny new thing in the tech industry, with companies looking to incorporate them across their products.

Andreas Braun, Chief Technology Officer at Microsoft Germany, recently confirmed that GPT-4 will be unveiled next week at an event called — AI in Focus — Digital Kickoff, reports Windows Central. “We will introduce GPT-4 next week, where we have multimodal models that will offer completely different possibilities — for example, videos,” Braun was quoted as saying.
