Curiosity paradoxically increases people's eagerness for answers and their patience to see the whole picture, finds a new study by neuroscientists. The research might help teachers and students alike by describing a side of curiosity that encourages us to stay engaged instead of seeking immediate relief.

Контекст для человеков всегда был важен. На онбординге всегда ломалось много мотивации и employee experience; над передачей знаний и снижением bus factor трудились и тимлиды, и HR-менеджеры, и даже выделенные KM-специалисты. Всё это делалось для людей, и делалось с весьма переменным успехом.Для ИИ-агентов мы делаем ровно то же самое, но с повышенным рвением, скоростью и отдачей. Вливаем максимальный контекст, пишем подробнейший промпт. Строим волты и описываем весь мир в понятном... Read more ›

A U.S. district court "has dismissed Google's case against SerpApi over that company's scraping of search results to train AI models," reports Computerworld. Google had claimed that it was protecting copyright holders — and that SerpApi's actions breached America's Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA): [Google] made two claims: first, that no person shall circumvent a technological measure that effectively controls access to a work protected under this title, and second...

According to Mark Gurman, Apple is planning to reveal its first smart glasses at WWDC next June, with an expectation that they'll launch by the end of 2027. Part of the hold-up may be around the company's efforts to get its privacy features and messaging in order. Smart glasses in general, and Meta's in particular, […] Read more ›

Современное человечество находится в иллюзии, что оно уже создало мыслящий искусственный интеллект. Мы смотрим на большие языковые модели, которые пишут стихи, программируют, ставят медицинские диагнозы и ведут беседы, и нам кажется, что внутри этой кремниевой коробки теплится разум. Но это оптический обман. Современный ИИ - это пассивный, мертвый калькулятор … Читать далее Read more ›

На первый взгляд ELIZA Джозефа Вейценбаума кажется чем-то примитивным. Практически набором костылей из регулярных выражений, который тупо менял местами «я» и «вы» и иногда задавал уточняющие вопросы. Да, в массовом сознании она так и осталась игрушкой из 60-х, наивной попыткой обмануть пользователя парой строк кода. И если вы думаете, что про ELIZA уже все давно сказано и разжевано, спешим вас удивить.Почему эта программа, изначально задуманная как пародия для демонстрации поверхностности... Read more ›

Проверить строку регулярным выражением в .NET можно по-разному, но совет всегда один: включите RegexOptions.Compiled или возьмите генератор. Замеры это подтверждают.А вот подготовка выражения оказалась не там, где её меряют: конструктор занимает 10 микросекунд, а первая же проверка на этом объекте — ещё 1307. Разобрался, куда уходит разница, и заодно нашёл границу, на которой статический Regex.IsMatch резко замедляется. Читать далее Read more ›

Scientists are testing two promising ways to destroy PFAS, the stubborn “forever chemicals” that can accumulate in water and resist normal treatment. One method uses collapsing vapor bubbles to generate extreme heat and reactive molecules, while the other uses cold plasma and rising gas bubbles to pull PFAS to the surface and break them apart.

Scientists have redesigned zinc oxide particles to create a mineral sunscreen that protects against ultraviolet radiation without leaving such a noticeable white cast. The SPF 30 formula could make sunscreen easier and more appealing to use across a wider range of skin tones. Read more ›

A protein called SORLA may act as a powerful defense against the toxic tau tangles involved in Alzheimer’s disease. Mice with extra SORLA had less tau accumulation, less brain atrophy, and healthier connections between neurons, while mice without it experienced more severe damage. The findings also revealed a possible drug target that could help control harmful activity in supporting brain cells. Read more ›

A quantum problem once described as impossible for classical computers has now been solved using relatively modest hardware. Researchers used tensor networks to compress the overwhelming wave function created by hundreds of entangled qubits, allowing some calculations to run on a laptop. Their results matched both theoretical predictions and simulations performed with a quantum computer. The method could open new paths for exploring quantum dynamics and materials. Read more ›

Researchers have uncovered a surprising culprit behind sleep loss in Alzheimer’s disease: the brain’s own immune cells. In mice with amyloid plaques, overactive microglia triggered inflammation that kept the brain from getting enough deep, restorative sleep. Temporarily removing most of these cells restored more than two hours of sleep per day, even though the plaques remained unchanged. Read more ›

Oxygen is disappearing from oceans, lakes, rivers, and coastal waters at an alarming rate, threatening aquatic life and weakening the natural processes that help regulate Earth’s climate. Scientists warn that this widespread deoxygenation is closely connected to other major planetary threats, including warming, pollution, biodiversity loss, and ocean acidification. Read more ›

Two elephant-sized South American sauropods were unusually well built for standing on their hind legs. Digital tests showed that their robust femurs handled the enormous forces better than those of larger species, especially while the dinosaurs were young. The upright pose may have helped them reach treetops, frighten predators, or impress potential mates. Read more ›

Scientists have discovered a hidden warning sign of skin damage that appears before collagen fibers visibly thin, break, or lose their connections. Using advanced light-based techniques, the team found that collagen’s carefully organized molecular “handedness” can collapse even while the tissue still appears structurally intact and contains the same amount of collagen. This suggests that skin may begin deteriorating at a much deeper level long before conventional imaging can detect... Read more ›

Scientists have developed a fully human antibody that halted the growth and spread of aggressive prostate cancer in preclinical research. Although more testing is needed, the drug’s unusual mechanism could open the door to a safer new treatment for advanced cancer. Read more ›

A new theoretical study offers a possible explanation for how the Universe can grow more complex without violating the second law of thermodynamics. Using a quantum gravity framework called Gravity from Entropy, mathematician Ginestra Bianconi found that the Universe’s total entropy may rise as space expands, even while entropy within each unit of volume falls. That decline could leave room for galaxies, stars, planets, and life to form locally amid... Read more ›
