The ability of humans to think rationally and weigh the evidence when making a choice is well known.
In a new Science study, researchers report that chimpanzees can also update their beliefs on the basis of the quantity and quality of new evidence. https://scim.ag/4nAmk0Q

Chimpanzees rationally revise their beliefs
The selective revision of beliefs in light of new evidence has been considered one of the hallmarks of human-level rationality. However, tests of this ability in other species are lacking. We examined...

"Harnessing Optical Disorder for Bell Inequalities violation"
a joint work with Hugo Defienne's team.

In short : a speckle essentially has a random polarization state at any position, we exploit this to show we can violate a BI.

![4-panel comic. (1) [Person 1 with ponytail flanked by person with short hair and another person speaking into microphone at podium] PERSON 1: In the early 2010s, researchers found that many major scientific results couldn’t be reproduced. (2) PERSON 1: Over a decade into the replication crisis, we wanted to see if today’s studies have become more robust. (3) PERSON 1: Unfortunately, our replication analysis has found exactly the same problems that those 2010s researchers did.
