According to the City of Paris, in the last 10 years 150K trees have been planted & 45ha of parks created in the already hot city, all intended to not only improve quality-of-life today, but also help the city adapt to & manage summer heatwaves of 50℃ (122F) by 2050.
They’ll be planting a lot more.

Incidental Prompt Injections on Vision–Language Models in Real-Life Histopathology
Vision–language models (VLMs) can analyze multimodal medical data. However, a significant weakness of VLMs is their susceptibility to prompt injection attacks. Here, the model receives conflicting ...

I wish more prominent scientists would speak out about what is happening under Trump.
Yes, there is a real threat to one's livelihood of doing so. Being a scientist has been my lifelong dream, but there's honest work I can do outside of science, and I'd rather do that than serve the current regime.
