That was certainly the case during a recent Schmidt Ocean Institute expedition. ROV SuBastian/Schmidt Ocean Institute"Most of the seafloor is still unknown to us," Virmani said, with only about 25% of it mapped in detail. "That work will take place in a lab environment where they'll do some more in-depth study to confirm that these are new species," Virmani said. ROV SuBastian/Schmidt Ocean InstituteEnthusiasts hoping to get a peek at more deep-sea creatures will have a chance starting February 24. The Schmidt Ocean Institute, started by Wendy Schmidt and former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, will launch another expedition with the Research Vessel Falkor (too).

Schmidt Ocean InstituteLittle is known about the glass octopus, which uses its near-transparency to hide from predators. It is likely, though, that they mate like other octopus species, meaning the male glass octopus delivers sperm to the female using his hectocotylus, or sex tentacle.

☆ Biden December fundraising blitz to star James Taylor, Spielberg

[1/3] U.S. President Joe Biden speaks during a reception at the White House ahead of the 46th Kennedy Center Honors gala, in Washington, U.S. December 3, 2023. "We're putting in the work across our fundraising program and look forward to again outperforming the MAGA field," Biden campaign spokesperson Kevin Munoz said. Next week, Biden will raise money in Pennsylvania and Maryland with the states' Democratic governors Josh Shapiro and Wes Moore. Recent polling has shown the GOP frontrunner leading Biden in hypothetical matchups in key swing states and on the national level. Hollywood and the entertainment industry overall lean Democratic, at least when it comes to fundraising, according to OpenSecrets, which tracks campaign contributions.

☆ How Google's former CEO Eric Schmidt helped write AI laws in Washington without publicly disclosing investments in AI start-ups

'Conflict of interest'Schmidt's investment was just the first of a handful of direct investments he would make in AI start-up companies during his tenure as chairman of the AI commission. Altogether, Schmidt and entities connected to him made more than 50 investments in AI companies while he was chairman of the federal commission on AI. To Poulson, Schmidt was simply given too much power over federal AI policy. The new entity would continue the work of the congressionally created federal commission, with many of the same goals and much of the same staff. More than a dozen staffers from the federal commission followed Schmidt to the new private sector project.
