Short Story Accused of Being AI-written Goes on to Win Contest's First Prize

"A story widely accused on social media of being written using AI has gone on to win the overall Commonwealth short story prize," reports the Guardian. In mid-May the story had been selected as a regional winner, but with critics on X and Bluesky "claiming it showed 'obvious markers' of AI use." In the wake of the controversy, the Commonwealth Foundation conducted a review of the regional winners, which it... Read more

Эволюция через тормоз: почему человеческий разум начался с невыполненного действия

Человеческий разум обычно объясняют трудом, речью, орудиями или социальной жизнью. Но у гипотезы самоодомашнивания есть слабое место: если человек «одомашнил сам себя», кто был первым селекционером?Я предлагаю пересобрать старую идею Бориса Поршнева без мистики суггестии. Возможно, человека запустила не «меньшая агрессия», а способность не выполнить первую реакцию: не ударить, не побежать, не закричать, не схватить.Другой древний гоминид мог стать внешним доместикационным прессом — когнитивным хищником, ряд Read more

DSpark на двух DGX Spark: порт, баг на одну строку и бенчмарки, которые пришлось мерить заново

DeepSeek выпустил DSpark — спекулятивный декодер для V4. В окне 27–30 июня 2026 рабочего публичного пути для GB10 не было — мы портировали его сами, нашли унаследованный баг, убивавший качество драфта, и сняли профиль своего стенда. Потом комьюнити выложило рецепт вдвое быстрее нашего. Мы его воспроизвели — и вместо гонки за цифрой сняли данные, которых в паблике не нашли: кривую деградации до реального 1M, механизм выигрыша NVFP4 и петли когерентности... Read more

Age of Mythology в 2026 году: от мифов Древней Греции до ацтеков — почему стратегия все еще жива

В Age of Mythology я играю с самого ее выхода. Помню, как в 2002 году установил ее почти сразу после релиза (каюсь, скачал с торрентов) и надолго забыл про остальные стратегии. Тогда сочетание привычной экономики RTS с богами, мифическими существами и божественными силами казалось чем-то совершенно новым. С тех пор прошло больше двадцати лет, а я все еще периодически возвращаюсь в этот мир — он продолжает удивлять. За эти годы... Read more

В чем смысл жизни с точки зрения термодинамики?

Мне хорошо запомнилось видео, где автор рассказывал про то, что многие люди находят свою работу бредовой и никому не нужной. Осмысленность труда - важная часть психологического комфорта, от которого зависит в том числе и продуктивность процессов. Если ты не понимаешь, зачем ты что-то делаешь, тяжелее исправлять и предугадывать собственные ошибки, а также сохранять концентрацию. В наше время люди часто впадают в личностные кризисы, которые симптоматически совпадают с депрессией, и я... Read more

Привет, Хабр! В первой части я рассказывал, как мы с Татьяной Маркиной готовили доклад «Провоок» на Analyst Days — про споры, студию в Краснодаре, логистический ад и идею с кнутом и пряником. А сегодня — второй части: что произошло на сцене, какие роли мы играли, почему корсет так и не вышел в свет, и как один разговор в кулуарах перевернул моё понимание публичных выступлений.
