Мировой ИИ-ландшафт окончательно разделился на две параллельные экосистемы. Прошедшая в Шанхае конференция World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) 2026 зафиксировала фундаментальный сдвиг: индустрия завершила экстенсивную гонку параметров языковых моделей и перешла к этапу жесткой инженерной прагматики. Пока западные корпорации выстраивают закрытые монополии вокруг проприетарных API, Китай делает ставку на агрессивный open source, агентные операционные системы и суверенные вычислительные кластеры, с Read more ›

Going to the cinema, visiting museums, or attending concerts may do more than entertain. Researchers found that older adults who regularly participated in cultural activities tended to have bodies that functioned like those of people about three years younger. They believe stronger social ties, better mental health, and healthier habits could help explain the link, although more research is needed to determine whether cultural activities directly slow aging.

In contrast, tourists, researchers, and other non-lethal humans trigger far weaker and less predictable reactions. Read more ›
