Q: Why will football be featured during the Bad Bunny concert?*
A: The Bad Bunny concert is fantastic exposure for the NFL and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to put the game of American football in front of fans of the biggest musical artist in the world.

Dunno, fitting, isn't it? π
Photoshopped selfies would still work better than AI generated avatars, IMO :)
What's even the point? VAST doesn't have a creative team capable of taking employees' pictures?
Cow Tools!
We have lived alongside cows for nearly 10,000 years.
We breed them and exploit them
It is now, only now, that we have discovered THEY CAN USE TOOLS
Here I describe our study

notice to Americans: the French are rapidly innovating in the burger space
Unbelievable. This would be a terrible blow to American science, writ large. It would decimate not only climate research, but also the kind of weather, wildfire, and disaster research that has underpinned half a century of progress in prediction, early warning, and increased resilience.
If you are (as I am) watching The Princess Bride for REASONS today, please take a look at the quoted thread for a master's look at the masters of swords
wonderful post by @kevinbaker.bsky.social
βTo ask about LLMs and science is to ask what program was already running when they arrived. The program, as it turns out, had been running for decades, and it was not optimized for epistemic depth.β
A money printing machine, apparently.
So on brand!
Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design.

"Science is being destroyed across many agencies" say federal researchers.
For my latest @nature.com piece, I spoke to 19 different scientists across EPA, NOAA, NIH, NASA, and USGS to document how science is being dismantled across US federal agencies.
Have they really broken up, though? Or is it more like open marriage is what's needed to keep those cloud relationships alive, now? π
Does it say anything about where those systems will be physically hosted? Given that OCI is again in the loop, I guess that it could mean Oracle is "buying" the hardware and hosting those 100k GPUs in OCI, with DoE paying a monthly rent for dedicated access.
And this "The system is co-developed by AMD, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Oak Ridge National Laboratory." prompts the question of OCI's role, here, too... π€
"Consuming AI art is like eating styrofoam."
This goes in a direction you did not expect.
Yes, I suspect the "hotel bar" plays a more important role in the decision to attend conferences than one may be ready to admit.
Or (unpopular opinion), maybe it's time to question the relevance of giant in-person conferences in 2025, drawing 15k+ people to one city (with all that environmental impact), only to check email while jet-lagged speakers present slides already online, or attend meetings that could have been emails?
