The AI did at exactly what it was built to do, and that still wasn't enough.


half of women leave the technology field by age 35


I think most women drop out of the workforce by 35


That doesn't seem to be true: https://www.cio.com/article/201905/women-in-tech-statistics-...

>Women leave the tech industry at 45% higher rates than men, and 50% of women leave the tech industry by age 35 compared to only 20% for other industries, according to Accenture.


Tech industry demands long hours, and most women in Tech are married to men in Tech, and by the time they are in their 30s and want to have kids, there is no need for them to have two salaries. In other industries, women are given a break if they choose to continue working after having kids, but in exchange they don’t receive promotions and are expected to spend more time at home with the kids. I have met many women who work in tech and almost none of them have kids, but I can tell some of them would like to. If they get the opportunity I imagine they would just quit.


Frontier labs say their AI models now help build their own successors.


EBRAINS is improving neuroscience by expanding shared data, research tools, and collaboration while balancing open science, clinical applications, and long-term financial sustainability.


Ultrasound and artificial intelligence-guided algae microrobots delivered chemotherapy deep into tumors in mice, paving the way to improved bladder cancer care.


Tracking down the cause of a production crash can resemble a classic murder mystery.


LLVM here refers to the LLVM Compiler Infrastructure, an open source software system created to simplify the design and implementation of compilers and a wide range of compiler-based tools.


As opposed to what?


LLM. I guess the commenter didn't want people to confuse LLM with LLVM because of naming similarly.


Not to mention vLLM :-D


With the current sensitivity, interpretations beyond the Standard Model cannot be excluded. A pseudoscalar heavy Higgs decaying into top-quark pairs would interfere strongly with the continuum, creating a characteristic peak-dip structure in the invariant tt mass. With enough statistics, this feature could be used to differentiate it from a quasi-bound state


A technique combining spectroscopy and computational simulations allows the geometry and spin magnetic moment of iron nanoclusters to be determined more precisely.


Stellar rotation is a crucial aspect of not only stellar evolution but also exoplanet science, and a recent study has built the largest catalog of stellar rotation periods to date.


When I was younger, I read that stars tended to have a bimodal distribution of rotational periods... many have a period measured in hours, and then another large group (like our sun) have a period of many days. The thought at the time was that the slower-rotating stars lost their angular momentum to planetary systems.

That makes sense to me, but that was before we had discovered exoplanets. I wonder if that theory still holds up?


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_rotation doesn't say anything about bimodal. There's a formula with a relation between size and rotation speed, including the fact that smaller stars live longer and have more time to spin down, but it's nearly monotonic. Stars spin down because of their magnetic field exerting torque on their stellar wind, an effect that's much larger than any transfer of angular momentum to planets.
