This is part of DESI's recently released map of our universe. Each snowflake in this blizzard is a galaxy. Not sure if it's terrifying or comforting, but it's definitely jawdropping! More videos at noirlab.edu/public/video... 🌌⚛️ 🧪

An LLM "creates textual claims, and then predicts the citations that might be associated with similar text. Obviously, this practice violates all norms of scholarly citation.

At best, LLMs gesticulate toward the shoulders of giants."

📢 Why do people share misinformation?

Power-motivated social media users are more likely to overshare posts, including misinformation

Sharing boosts their sense of influence, making them key players in spreading falsehoods

What happens when models, like LLMs, learn from each other across multiple generations?

@joshuaren.bsky.social + collaborators extend a cogsci framework called Bayesian iterated learning to think about, and avoid, pitfalls.

Wolf-Rayet star WR 140 - MIRI image.
Each ring was created when the two stars came close together and their stellar winds (streams of gas they blow into space) met, compressing the gas and forming dust.

A mesmerizing image of the Wolf-Rayet star WR 140, captured by the James Webb Space Telescope's Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI). The image showcases intricate rings of dust surrounding the star, radiating outward like petals. The central star, a bright, saturated core, is surrounded by diffraction spikes, adding to the celestial spectacle.

Next in our 19 days of #PHANGS galaxies series is the barred spiral galaxy NGC 3627, as seen by #Hubble and #JWST.

NGC 3627, also known as M66, is about 37 million light-years (11.3 Mpc) away.🔭🧪

Hubble’s image of NGC 3627 shows a face-on barred spiral galaxy anchored by its central region. It has a bright yellow circular area surrounded by a lighter yellow diagonal bar structure made of a haze of stars, which forms an angled oval toward the top. The central core and bar fill about a third of the image. Two distinct spiral arms made of stars, gas, and brown filamentary dust lanes start at the center and extend to the edges, rotating clockwise. The farther the arms are from the central region the easier it is to see bright blue clusters of stars, which appear as pinpricks. The darkest areas of the arms are two large dusty arcs that start at the central region. One to lower left extends toward the top and the second starts at the top-right and extends to the bottom. The background of space beyond the galaxy appears dark gray. There are some fine red points of light toward the bottom half and top right. A triangular area at center-right is black, where there isn’t any data Webb’s image of NGC 3627 shows a face-on barred spiral galaxy anchored by its central region, which has a bright blue central dot surrounded by a lighter diagonal blue bar structure made of a haze of stars, which forms an angled oval toward the top. The central core and bar fill about a third of the image. Two distinct spiny spiral arms made of stars, gas, and dust also start at the center, appearing brown or greenish within the blue bar, and extending to the edges, rotating clockwise in bright oranges. The brightest areas of the arms are two large arcs that start at the central region. The one at left stretches up to the top in a long arc and another at right extends toward the bottom. Scattered across the packed scene are bright blue pinpoints of light, which are stars spread throughout the galaxy. In areas where there is less orange, it is darker. A triangular area at bottom right is largely the black background of space.
