У криптографов была «одна пуля в барабане». GPT-5.6 нашел вторую

23 июля Прабханджан Анант (Калифорнийский университет в Санта-Барбаре) и Амит Сахаи (UCLA) выложили на arXiv статью "Unconditional Unclonable Encryption", которая закрывает проблему, стоявшую перед квантовыми криптографами шесть лет. Но не меньше самого результата обсуждают короткий раздел в конце введения: конструкция и основные идеи доказательства были целиком сгенерированы агентом Codex на модели GPT-5.6 Sol Ultra.

Топ известных и мемных роботов и ИИ из научной и не очень фантастики

Мыслящие в той или иной степени машины волнуют воображение людей где-то с конца XIX века, а ныне подобные штуки всё более активно становятся частью нашей реальности и быта. Задолго до того, как школьники стали «писать» сочинения посредством ChatGPT, а хикки — крутить цифровые «романы» с нейронками, писатели-фантасты и режиссёры создали немало ярких персонажей-роботов. Самых разных — от грозных машин-киллеров до трогательных или смехотворных. Попробуем вспомнить самых знаменитых и меметичных из... Read more

[Перевод] Космический телескоп «Роман» будет искать древние чёрные дыры, наблюдая за тем, как они поглощают звёзды

Сверхмассивные чёрные дыры (СМЧД) могут быть чрезвычайно неряшливыми «пожирателями». Когда звезда подходит слишком близко, огромная приливная сила СМЧД может не только втянуть звезду внутрь, но и растянуть её, разорвав на части, прежде чем поглотить. И это полезно для астрофизиков, поскольку так СМЧД легче обнаружить. Когда СМЧД разрывает звезду на части, это называется событием приливного разрушения (СПР). Оторванный от звезды звёздный материал собирается в аккреционное кольцо вокруг чёрной дыры, нагревает Read more
