Another week, another AI chatbot.
This week Snapchat launched My AI, a customised version of OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Elon Musk signalled his intentions to build one.
Artificial intelligence (AI) writing technology underpinned by large language models are certainly impressive. And they are creating a great deal of anxiety among writers, academics and people concerned about intellectual property rights.
For the last 50 years, astronomers have speculated that some supermassive black holes might “run away” from their home galaxies given the right conditions. Now, astronomers believe they have discovered a strong candidate for a supermassive black hole that has done just that, according to new research published on the preprint server arXiv.org, which has been accepted for publication in The Astrophysical Journal.

A new paper has been released that outlines a type of ‘roadmap’ for biocomputers – computers drawing memory and power from human neurons – or brain cells.
The crux of the new work is a term called ‘organoid intelligence’ – this is the idea that a small group of human neurons could begin understanding it’s environment, learn and remember.
But to understand this, we first have to look to what an organoid is and how they are made.

An increase in difficulties with gambling is linked to a heightened risk of suicide attempts among young adults, according to new research from the University of Glasgow and City, University of London.
Published in the journal, The Lancet Public Health, the study suggests that over the course of a year, young adults (aged 16–24) who experienced an increase in severity of gambling harm were 2.74 times more likely to attempt suicide than those whose gambling was unchanged.
Gambling behavior is dynamic, and the study found that any escalation in the experience of gambling harm, regardless of someone’s starting point, was linked to a heightened risk of suicidality.
Technological and engineering advances let researchers delve deeper into cell function and behavior in physiological and pathological settings.
NASA showed some love to The Orville, and I’m thinking it’s time for an announcement that Season 4 is happening already.
Alan Thompson, AI Consultant and Former Chairman of Mensa International, examines the latest trends in artificial intelligence, as well as its applications to finance, professional services, and military. He discusses the possibility that AI could become sentient and even dangerous with David Lin, Anchor and Producer at Kitco News.
