KI krempelt vieles um. Es ist so einfach, wie nie, Content zu produzieren. Gleichzeitig bekommen wir durch die Veränderungen bei Google & Co. (allen voran durch die AI Overviews) immer weniger Klicks auf unseren Content. Persönlichkeit wird zum wichtigsten Unterscheidungsmerkmal, meint Judith Peters #Bloggen #KI

Linguist Noam Chomsky is interviewed by Common Dreams writer C.J. Polychroniou on the subject of ChatGPT in this May 2023 piece. Chomsky's stance on LLMs is that as long as we're not able to atomically understand what goes on in the statistical black box that currently is an LLM, linguists won't be able to benefit from being able to see whether it learns language like a human does, or not.

Iranian missile strikes hit Israeli hospital
Israel is targeted by new Iranian missile strikes with several hits, among them, the Soroka Hospital in Beersheba. Israel earlier reportedly attacked a key heavy-water research reactor in Khondab. DW has more.

Energetic ($< 2$ MeV) Ion Environment of the Magnetosphere as measured by ASPEX-STEPS on board Aditya-L1 during its earth-bound phase
During its earth-bound phase of the Aditya-L1 spacecraft of India, the Supra-Thermal and Energetic Particle Spectrometer (STEPS) of the Aditya Solar wind Particle EXperiment (ASPEX) was operated whenever the orbit was above 52000 km during 11-19 September 2023. This phase of operation provided measurements of energetic ions (with energies 0.1-2 MeV) in the magnetosphere, magnetosheath, and interplanetary medium. Three interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICME) hit the magnetosphere during thi…

Detecting Narrative Shifts through Persistent Structures: A Topological Analysis of Media Discourse
How can we detect when global events fundamentally reshape public discourse? This study introduces a topological framework for identifying structural change in media narratives using persistent homology. Drawing on international news articles surrounding major events - including the Russian invasion of Ukraine (Feb 2022), the murder of George Floyd (May 2020), the U.S. Capitol insurrection (Jan 2021), and the Hamas-led invasion of Israel (Oct 2023) - we construct daily co-occurrence graphs of n…

Building Blocks of a User Experience Research Point of View
This paper presents three User Experience Research (UXR) perspectives based on data, evidence and insights - known as Point of View (POV) - showcasing how the strategies and methods of building a POV work in an enterprise setting. The POV are: 1. Smart Visuals: Use AI to extract and translate text from visuals in videos (2019). 2. Assessable Code Editor: Focus on direct AI-feedback to the learner as it is the loop that requires the least effort for the highest impact(2023). 3. Opportunity Lands…

A new equilibrium: COVID-19 lockdowns and WFH persistence
This paper documents a robust link between COVID-19 lockdowns and the uptake and persistence of working from home (WFH) practices. Exploiting rich longitudinal data, we use a difference-in-differences strategy to compare office workers in three heavily locked-down Australian states to similar workers in less affected states. Locked-down workers sustain 43% higher WFH levels through 2023 - 0.5 days per week - with a monotonic dose-response relationship. Persistence is driven by adjustments on bo…

On the intervals for the non-existence of covering systems with distinct moduli
In a research seminar in $2006$, M. Filaseta, O. Trifonov, and G. Yu showed for each integer $n\geq3$ there is no distinct covering with all moduli in the interval $[n, 6n]$. In $2022$, this interval was subsequently improved to $[n, 8n]$ by the first author and O. Trifonov. The first author then improved this bound to $[n, 9n]$ in $2023$. Building off their method, we show that for each integer $n\geq 3$, there does not exist a distinct covering system with all moduli in the interval $[n, 10n]…

Evolution of QPO During Discovery Outburst of MAXI J1834-021: Estimation of Intrinsic Parameters from Spectro-Temporal Study
The Galactic transient black hole candidate (BHC) MAXI~J1834-021 was detected for the first time by MAXI/GSC on February 05, 2023 and it was active for next $\sim 10$~months. A monotonic evolution of low-frequency QPOs from higher to lower frequencies is observed in the middle-phase of the outburst. We study this evolution of the QPO with the propagating oscillatory shock (POS) model, and it suggests the presence of a receding shock. The POS model fit also estimates the mass of the source to be…
