Cloudflare's CEO predicts AI-driven bot traffic will surpass human internet traffic by 2027, as AI agents generate vastly more web requests than people. "If a human were doing a task -- let's say you were shopping for a digital camera -- and you might go to five websites. Your agent or the bot that's doing that will often go to 1,000 times the number of sites that an actual human would visit," Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince said in an interview at SXSW this week.

Алексей Андреевич Ляпунов был математиком - специалистом по математической логике. В 1954 году, когда кибернетика официально называлась реакционной буржуазной лженаукой, он открыл в Московском университете семинар по кибернетике. Это было примерно как читать запрещенную литературу в читальном зале публичной библиотеки. Только публичной библиотекой был МГУ.Он не был диссидентом. Он просто считал, что обратная связь существует независимо от того, что о ней думают, скажем так, философы нужной закалки. Читать д Read more ›

A trio of preprint papers suggests the universe may not be perfectly uniform on the largest scales, finding tentative 2-to-4-sigma deviations from a core assumption of standard cosmology known as FLRW geometry. Live Science reports: The work combines observations of distant exploding stars and large-scale galaxy surveys to probe whether the universe truly follows a nearly 100-year-old mathematical framework known as Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) cosmology. The analyses revealed mild-but-intrigu Read more ›
