An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica, written by Ryan Whitwam: Researchers at DeepMind have ... released a new technical paper (PDF) that explains how to develop AGI safely, which you can download at your convenience. It contains a huge amount of detail, clocking in at 108 pages before references. While some in the AI field believe AGI is a pipe dream, the authors of the DeepMind paper project that it could happen by 2030. With that in mind, they aimed to understand the risks of a human-lik

В 1963 году 21-летний аспирант из Кембриджа начал замечать странную неуклюжесть в движениях и вскоре услышал от врачей страшный диагноз — боковой амиотрофический склероз. Ему прогнозировали всего несколько лет жизни. Болезнь постепенно лишала его подвижности и речи, но его разум продолжал работать с поразительной силой. Его звали Стивен Хокинг. Спустя десятилетия он станет одним из самых известных физиков современности, напишет бестселлер «Краткая история времени», а его идея о квантовом излучении... Read more ›

Apple today announced its global price hikes, primarily targeting the Mac lineup but also including the iPad, Apple TV, Apple Vision Pro, and HomePods. However, while the hikes maybe global, they certainly aren't being raised globally in an equal fashion, with certain markets like India being hit way harder than others, like the US. There are three main factors to consider here. First, the prices have been hiked across the... Read more ›

Не знаю как для вас, но мне всегда казалось очень странным, что, любой энтузиаст, желающий собирать какие-либо самоделки на базе микроконтроллеров, всегда сталкивается с весьма странной проблемой: как подключить двигатели наиболее простым способом?! Потому что, самое первое, с чем придётся иметь дело при попытках разобраться с этим вопросом, так это с тем, что в глаза бросается просто какое-то безумное количество плат расширения, какое-то безумное количество датчиков, подключаемых удобным и не...

Если вы работаете техническим инженером в отделе эксплуатации, то с вероятностью 99,9% вы знакомы с Prometheus и прекрасно разбираетесь в языке запросов promQL. Но даже в «родной и знакомой» сфере есть области, которые остаются вопросительными пятнами. Например, «Сравнение векторов»/«Сопоставление векторов». Это механизмы promQL, которые применяются не так часто, плохо документированы и неочевидны для понимания. Привет, Хабр!

В Яндексе постоянно растёт количество задач, где GPU требуются не только для классического машинного обучения, но и для генерации тяжёлого визуального контента: 3D‑сцен, видео, цифровых аватаров, симуляций и синтетических данных для обучения нейросетей.Ярким кейсом стал проект к премьере сериала «Кибердеревня». Мы сканировали гостей мероприятия, создавали их 3DGS‑аватары (3D Gaussian Splatting) и интегрировали в подготовленные Unity‑сцены. Этот пайплайн наглядно подсветил узкое место: при масштабировании пр Read more ›

Researchers say they detected the first gravitational-wave "fingerprints" of a black hole's event horizon by analyzing the final moments of the powerful GW250114 merger. The findings support Einstein's general relativity and may eventually help probe frame dragging and quantum fluctuations near black holes. Phys.org reports: For the new research published in Nature, an international team of researchers analyzed data from the strongest gravitational wave ever recorded, known as GW250114, detected...

Современные LLM (Large Language Models) — это черные ящики. Мы знаем, что они что-то умеют, но как они это делают внутри — остается загадкой. Существует целое направление — механистическая интерпретируемость (mechanistic interpretability), которое пытается заглянуть внутрь нейросетей и найти алгоритмы, зашитые в весах. Ключевая идея этого направления: если модель обучилась решать задачу (например, арифметику), то внутри её residual stream формируется геометрическая структура — числа начинают лежать на окруж Read more ›
