heise | Apples KI-Motoren: Das können die aktuellen M-Chips bei lokalen LLMs & Co.
Apple packt in jede neue Chipgeneration mehr Power für On-Device-KI. Wir klären, was es bringt – und für wen sich ein Upgrade auf M5-Prozessoren im Mac lohnt.

A Cool Earth-sized Planet Candidate Transiting a Tenth Magnitude K-dwarf From K2
The transit method is currently one of our best means for the detection of potentially habitable "Earth-like" exoplanets. In principle, given sufficiently high photometric precision, cool Earth-sized exoplanets orbiting Sun-like stars could be discovered via single transit detections; however, this has not previously been achieved. In this work, we report a 10-hour long single transit event which occurred on the $V=10.1$ K-dwarf HD 137010 during K2 Campaign 15 in 2017. The transit is comparativ…

Todd Blanche, Deputy Attorney General, beschreibt in einer Pressekonferenz, welche Abbildungen nicht in den Epstein-Dateien enthalten sind.
Dabei erwähnt er u.a. Bilder, die Tod, körperliche Misshandlungen oder Verletzungen enthalten. Es ist also noch schlimmer als ohnehin in den aktuellen Daten zu sehen ist.

The term “artificial intelligence” finally makes sense when we view it not as equivalent or superior to human cognition, but as fundamentally incompatible and alien. That is precisely where the danger lies...

Calibrated simulations for dynamic focusing of ultrasound through the temporal window #ultrasound

Calibrated simulations for dynamic focusing of ultrasound through the temporal window
Focused ultrasound can be delivered through the temporal window to modulate heterogeneously located brain areas. Acoustic simulations allow for safety assessments when dynamically targeting brain structures, but the mismatch between simulation and measured focal pressure can vary across the steerable range due to mechanically inaccurate assumptions made about the skull and transducer. Here, we describe efficient methods for simulation-measurement calibration using axisymmetric projections and s…

Apple bastelt an KI-Browser – Projektstatus unklar
Apples macOS-, iPadOS- und iOS-Browser Safari hat keine nennenswerten KI-Funktionen. Intern soll es laut einem Bericht aber ein Projekt geben.
