I propose, as well, that we “weed them out” with a week of hunger games, battle bots, and rocket launch tests. In seriousness, through a decade of experience in AI, I have found that most “famous” and “exotic” algorithms that software engin

I have personally enjoyed community SparkFun events in Boulder, Colorado, which were hosted at a level that was both cool and fun for kids, adults, and experts alike. A really creative and intelligent company. Thanks Nathan for the courage

TLDR: Biomedical scientists from Spain recently found that DMT (plant-derived drug in Ayahuasca) can massively improve memory and learning, through the birth of new neurons (i.e. neurogenesis). From this research, it was wonderful to discov

This is a long read from New York Times, but it's essential to understand how (a) "news media" and (b) Australian government are strongly influenced by (c) Rupert Murdoch: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive&#

If this is a war, then mobilization should equal many of us who were working on other problems to focus on solving health. That could mean better hardware sensing, better models, better interfaces, better networks, better funding, better ed

Do not underestimate the Great Firewall. But anyways, from a manufacturing and distribution of basic essential health supplies, and more, China is probably best positioned to help save the world.
