The Information
Lauren Wagner @ The Information · 06/05/2024 12:22 EDT

The artificial intelligence boom has ignited an intense response from regulators that will shape the future of AI startups, platforms and open source. President Joe Biden last year issued an executive order on AI and the EU has its AI Act. In the first half of 2024, state lawmakers across the U.S. have introduced 745 AI-related bills—10 times as many as were proposed in all of 2023.

California’s most sweeping and restrictive AI bill, SB 1047: Safe and Secure Innovation for Frontier Artificial Intelligence.

Because these parasites depend on multiple hosts—including marine mammals—their increase may reflect ecosystem recovery over decades. What looks unappetizing may actually be a sign of a healthier ocean. Read more

В предыдущей статье я попробовала описать типы привязанности как сетевые протоколы, разобраться, как большинство из нас строит отношения. Было сделано предположение, что типы привязанности — те невидимые протоколы, по которым наше сердечко подключается к другим людям. Кто-то легко доверяет и остаётся на связи даже в шторм. Кто-то постоянно проверяет: «Ты ещё здесь?». А кто-то заранее закрывает порты, чтобы не рисковать.И после возникает логичный вопрос: Если привязанность — это протокол, то... Read more
