Understand that time as we know it looks continous when it is actually experienced a page at a time. Those pages are super thin and it may well be that we actually recall those pages by jumping along a few pages at a time. Why would we not?

Recent investigations like the one Dyer worked on have revealed that LLMs can produce hundreds of "emergent" abilities ?" tasks that big models can complete that smaller models can't, many of which seem to have little to do with analyzing tex
What is important is that we have detected two plasma clouds within the two Lagrange points using optical telescopes. They are several times larger than our own planet. This happens to be an excellent location also for a large mass of neutral items
How will superhuman artificial intelligence (AI) affect human decision-making? And what will be the mechanisms behind this effect? We address these questions in a domain where AI already exceeds human performance, analyzing more than 5.8 million move
In a packed talk on Tuesday afternoon at the American Physical Society's annual March meeting in Las Vegas, Ranga Dias, a physicist at the University of Rochester, announced that he and his team had achieved a century-old dream of the field: a supe
While most of us will never bear witness to them, many of the world's smallest organisms have some incredible means of survival. Some soil bacteria, for example, can gobble up hydrogen from the air and use it for fuel if starved of any other food
Thinking the issue might have to do with the fact that the amyloid-fighting antibodies may be too large to pass through the blood-brain barrier, researchers at Tokyo Medical and Dental University hid smaller portions of them inside round nanoparticle
Dr. Leja and colleagues, and many other cosmologists around the world were shocked because the properties of these remote galaxies are similar to the ones of the Milky Way and other big nearby galaxies. According to the Big Bang hypothesis, no such g
Astronomers have used the James Webb Space Telescope to peer back in time to the early days of the universe - and they spotted something unexpected.
The space observatory revealed six massive galaxies that existed between 500 million and 700 mil
Researchers have observed a newly discovered innermost core of the earth. Seismic station see up-to-fivefold reverberating waves from selected earthquakes along the Earth's diameter. Differential travel times of these exotic arrival pairs complemen

Americans have a big appetite for catfish: In 2021, fi
I was smoking a weed strain called Pink Boost Goddess, grown by Mendocino County's Emerald Spirit Botanicals. It contains THCV, a unique compound that behaves wholly unlike THC, the most common intoxicant found in cannabis. This type of cannabis is
Christof Koch, a leading researcher on consciousness and the human brain, has famously called the brain "the most complex object in the known universe." It's not hard to see why this might be true. With a hundred billion neurons and a hundred t
With that in mind, all young women upon completing grade twelve, automatically become breeders for four cycles of gestation or until they are 26. At the same time men continue their education or training until they reach degree status or otherwise
The variations urban Anolis cristatellus lizards have evolved include larger toe pads with more specialized scales that help them cling to smooth surfaces (walls, glass windows, etc.) and their longer limbs help them sprint across open areas.
Ask any philosopher what scepticism is, and you will receive as many different answers as people you've asked. Some of them take it to be showing that we cannot have any knowledge ?" of, say, the external world ?" and some of them take it to be
The experiments show aging is a reversible process, capable of being driven "forwards and backwards at will," said anti-aging expert David Sinclair, a professor of genetics in the Blavatnik Institute at Harvard Medical School and codirector of
Witnessing an elephant give birth inspired a couple to create a new childbirth technology. Unfortunately, it was too ridiculous to use.

While manufacturers seek out "perfectly engineered food," the incidence of obesity and obesity-related health conditions has skyrocketed. Type 2 diabetes is one of the obesity-related conditions that have a significant impact on many of your bodi
Once you reach the age of 30, you have a 10 percent to 20 percent chance of graying hair with each passing decade.1 It's a fact of life that, eventually, virtually everyone will go gray.
Your hair color comes from pigment called melanin. Each ha
I'm going to imitate Rudyard Kipling and tell you a just-so story. Kipling was one of the most popular writers in the world 100 years ago. He wrote The Jungle Book. And also Just So Stories, which began as bedtime stories he told his daughter Josep
In November, we demonstrated that the new dual switches could pass a greater current than the single switches. However, the greater current turned out to be too much for our spare test capacitor, which failed. Fortunately, we were able to locate a sm
Like Lerner and Scarpa, Lovyagin and colleagues compared the angular size of galaxy images (their apparent size on the sky), using multiple data bases to plot how angular size change with redshift, and thus with increasing distance (see Fig.2). While
Polar ecosystems are highly vulnerable to ongoing climate change, and rapidly melting ice-sheets and changes in oceanography and in marine ecosystems are expressed on all levels of the food web1,2,3. Antarctica is arguably the most susceptible polar
The brain is complex; in humans it consists of about 100 billion neurons, making on the order of 100 trillion connections. It is often compared with another complex system that has enormous problem-solving power: the digital computer. Both the brain
Battling insomnia, Campbell-Staton watched a video about Gorongosa National Park. The park was once Edenic, but during Mozambique's civil war, from 1977 to 1992, much of its wildlife was exterminated. Government troops and resistance fighters slaug
For almost 15 years, Salvador Jorgensen from the Monterey Bay Aquarium has been studying great white sharks off the coast of California. He and his colleagues would lure the predators to their boats using bits of old carpet that they had cut in the s
Over the past 50 years, researchers have approached this problem in many ways, all based on computer searches aided by human intuition. Last month, a team at the artificial intelligence company DeepMind showed how to tackle the problem from a new dir
It's hard to know what to take from that; Steve Jobs was clearly a very smart man, without a lot of empathy for lesser beings. So is he saying "Everything was made up by people no smarter than Steve Jobs", or does he actually mean it that the a
