Happy birthday to the Soviet linguist Yuri Knorozov who casually deciphered the Mayan script in 1952 and got pissed when editors removed his cat as co-author on papers or cropped her out of his author headshot (the only picture of himself he even liked)

In 2008, Google created an ad-powered wiki encyclopedia called Knol, seen as a "Wikipedia killer" amid its highly-publicized launch. And the Wikimedia Foundation gave an unbothered response that I quite like: "the more good free content, the better for the world." Anyway Knol instantly flopped

This morning my ChatGPT quota was inexplicably exhausted.
It took a while but I pieced it together. Voice mode somehow got activated when I went to bed.

Juste pour que tout soit 100% clair, l'IA d'Elon Musk non seulement propage des conspirations antisémites, mais il trouve aussi d'autres "exemples" et cite comme source d'info des néonazis quand on le lui demande.

When vacancy rates rise, rents fall. It's the most robust finding in housing. If you want housing costs to fall, you have to build.

We know that elephants and dolphins have names for themselves and others (as discussed in www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0316...). The new hope of a growing number of biologists and computer scientists is that applying AI to animal sounds might reveal what these creatures are saying to each other!

Artificial intelligence could reveal how animals of the land, sea and sky talk to others of their species.
