Muito bom este artigo, a passar de forma crítica por todos os pontos mais relevantes da história recente dos "dire wolves". Excelente jornalismo na Shifter.
“Os lobos-terríveis estavam extintos há 13 mil anos. Mas um grupo de cientistas voltou a trazê-los à vida", esteve por toda a parte na última semana. Mas mais do que um milagre ecológico, este é um caso de estudo sobre como os media tratam a ciência como entretenimento.

My husband has taught human reproduction and development to the Cambridge medics for over three decades. When people start banging on about "only two biological sexes" he starts with "which sex: genetic, hormonal, or gonadal"?

Biological sex is not binary. www.scientificamerican.com/article/sex-...
Sex Redefined: The Idea of 2 Sexes Is Overly Simplistic
Biologists now think there is a larger spectrum than just binary female and male

The transformer was invented in Google. RLHF was not invented in industry labs, but came to prominence in OpenAI and DeepMind. I took 5 of the most influential papers (black dots) and visualized their references. Blue dots are papers that acknowledge federal funding (DARPA, NSF).

Echoing points made by others today, in a country where getting an abortion or gender affirming care or protesting a genocide can be felonies, I am going to need everyone to stop talking about "the rule of law" and "innocent people" and "criminal records."

i always took it on relative faith that a diffuse collection of ruthless corporate interests more or less ran the world according to a certain understood ruleset but the fact that trump and these other dipshits haven't been michael claytoned yet is making me wonder

Sounds weird to say but the level of competence, proficiency, skill, cool-headedness, compassion, and dedication illustrated on THE PITT make this the most feel-good show on TV right now, and one that is such a balm in the current moment. One of the best television shows you will ever see.

The Pitt is such a good show it grapples you in and never lets you out.
Can't wait to see more

I’ve looked at the footage so you don’t have to.

There are no excuses, nowhere to hide. Everyone complicit in this crime must be held to account.

Nice essay!

"LLMs, while they already have all of humanity's knowledge in memory, haven't generated any new knowledge by connecting previously unrelated facts...We're currently building very obedient students, not revolutionaries."
I shared a controversial take the other day at an event and I decided to write it down in a longer format: I’m afraid AI won't give us a "compressed 21st century"
