“We believe physics is the third modality for AI models,
after text and pixels,”
says MIT PhD student and CSAIL researcher Minghao Guo,
a co-lead author on a paper introducing GeoPT.
“Our general-purpose model has the versatility to help build a world model for physics.
Many models, such as those that generate robotics data and videos, are already well-versed in textual and visual data,
but with physical accuracy, they’ll get more-realistic results.”

With a feel for physics, AI models simulate a wider range of real-world scenarios
“GeoPT” teaches AI models the basics of physics by virtually reenacting everyday mechanical interactions in 3D. In turn, the systems can simulate how vehicles and other objects respond to things like wind and water more efficiently and accurately.

"Der heisseste Sommer, den die Schweiz je verzeichnet hat, entspricht den Szenarien eines durchschnittlichen Sommers in einer um 3 Grad erwärmten Welt."
Guet Nacht am Föifi!

Academia.edu opted you in for AI training on your papers, added shitty AI summaries, and generates podcasts based on your work.
Last time I logged in, they forced everyone to accept the new ToS and privacy policy, allowing Academia.edu "the generation and hosting of Output and the use of AI to generate adaptations and other derivative works of Member Content".

Kenellä on vastuu siitä, että ilmaston lämpeneminen rajoitetaan 1,5 asteeseen?
"Vaikka teollisuus muuttuisi nopeasti kestävämmäksi, kotitalouksien on silti muutettava elintapojaan ilmastotavoitteiden saavuttamiseksi." kirjoitetaan alla olevassa artikkelissa.
Toisin sanoa, ihan jokaisen on tehtävä oma osuutensa, poliitikkojen, yritysten, järjestöjen ja tavallisten ihmisten.
Who is responsible for limiting global warming to 1.5°?

Even if industry rapidly becomes more sustainable, households will still need to change their lifestyles to meet climate targets. Industrial ecologist Stephanie Cap warns that households cannot do this alone: Businesses and governments must create the conditions to make these changes possible. Cap defends her dissertation titled "Everything Must Change: 1.5°C decarbonisation scenarios across industries and households" on Oct. 1.

Nach etwa zehn Jahren ist es wieder soweit: Kreuzbeinblockade. Wer sich gerne von jetzt auf gleich wie sein eigener Grossvater fühlen will - eine empfehlenswerte Lösung. Bauchlage, warten, bis die Schmerzmittel wirken, dann langsam in Bewegung kommen. Nun gut, wenn es bei dem Zeitrhythmus bleibt, habe ich es bei der allgemeinen Lebenserwartung noch zwei Mal vor mir, das ist zu schaffen.

I hope Andy Burn 'em has some advisor who actually reads Environmental Research Letters. The review essay by Emily Grubert, summarizing a frustrating 25 years of research with no apparent effect on climate overheating, is blunt.
" For people and places that rely on fossil fuel production and face major transition challenges (Xenarios et al 2026), failing to be explicit about the degree to which transition must proceed, or the extent to which alternatives might actually be ava…

Läser hur SD skickar sms, hur moderaterna använde ett meddelande med mottagarens namn och hur V anklagas för otillbörlig påverkan. Och sen pratas det om vandel, ordning och reda, rätt osv. Politiken har spårat ur fullständigt, eller det är kanske inte längre värt att kalla politik, det är väl snarast Robinson STHLM edition
