New York CNN —OpenAI says it’s hitting the pause button on a synthetic voice released with an update to ChatGPT that prompted comparisons with a fictional voice assistant portrayed in the quasi-dystopian film “Her” by actor Scarlett Johansson. “We’ve heard questions about how we chose the voices in ChatGPT, especially Sky,” OpenAI said in a post on X Monday. A spokesperson for the company said that structure would help OpenAI better achieve its safety objectives. OpenAI President Greg Brockman responded in a longer post on Saturday, which was signed with both his name and Altman’s, laying out the company’s approach to long-term AI safety. “We have raised awareness of the risks and opportunities of AGI so that the world can better prepare for it,” Brockman said.

Einstein's general theory of relativity states that the curvature of space-time causes gravity. But zoom out to enormous scales like clusters of galaxies spanning billions of light years across, and the laws of Einstein's gravity theory appear to change. A 1% adjustment may not sound like a big deal, but it's enough to suggest that Einstein's theory may need a rethink. Now, with this cosmic glitch, there's a new explanation on the table. NASA/CXC/Univ of Missouri/M.Brodwin et al; NASA/STScI; JPL/CalTechThe fact that this cosmic glitch could potentially help astronomers resolve the Hubble tension is a good sign that it may truly exist.

Jeff Yang CNNLike its predecessors, GPT-4o is trained on enormous quantities of data to process queries, recognize patterns and deliver helpful responses. Watching the reveal, I found myself involuntarily gasping as researchers Mark Chen and Barret Zoph showed off GPT-4o’s new chops. The freakout aspect of the reveal came from how it demonstrated that GPT-4o isn’t just a tool — it’s a tool with personality. On the one hand, having the option to interrupt your AI chatbot when it’s going astray saves time. On the other, watching dudes repeatedly talking over a female-reading chatbot made it abundantly clear why you can’t spell “mansplain” without AI.

But the kicker is that this giant void shouldn't exist in the first place. For example, some people have correctly argued that such a void shouldn't exist in the standard model, which is true. Cosmologists have a value, called the Hubble constant, which they use to help describe how fast the universe's expansion is accelerating. The Hubble constant should be the same value wherever you look, whether it's close by or very far away. NASA/JPL-CaltechAstronomers can't agree on what's causing this discrepancy in the Hubble constant, and the contention has become known as the Hubble tension.

New data from the largest 3-D map of our universe suggests we may be wrong about dark energy. One of the driving forces behind that evolution is also one of our age's biggest mysteries in physics: dark energy. Einstein abandoned the idea as his "greatest blunder" in the 1930s, as astrophysicist Ethan Siegal explains, but a constant dark energy would have vindicated him. "If true, it would be the first real clue we have gotten about the nature of dark energy in 25 years," Adam Riess, a Nobel laureate for his co-discovery of dark energy, told Quanta Magazine. "The idea that dark energy is varying is very natural," Paul Steinhardt, a Princeton University cosmologist, told the magazine.

In the four years since their unlikely bond was posted online, the odd couple has attracted almost two million followers on Instagram and Facebook. But in an emotional video posted online Tuesday, Peggy’s owners, Juliette Wells and Reece Mortensen, announced that the animals had been separated. Wildlife officials worried that others would follow their lead of domesticating wild animals in the hope of profiting online. Followers are being urged to write to their local member of parliament and the director general of the department. Bernard Ashcroft, CEO of Wildlife Rescue Australia, said the law prohibits people from taking wild animals as pets, for good reason.

NEW YORK (AP) — Comedian Jon Stewart is rewinding the clock, returning to “The Daily Show” as a weekly host and executive producing through the 2024 U.S. elections cycle. Comedy Central on Wednesday said Stewart will host the topical TV show, the perch he ruled for 16 years starting in 1999, every Monday starting Feb. 12. Two former correspondents in particular got massive boosts — Steve Carell and Stephen Colbert. '”The show's abrupt end was reportedly triggered due to clashes between Stewart and Apple over its coverage of stories around China and artificial intelligence. A spokesperson did not immediately respond to questions about who will host “The Daily Show” after the November election.

The Crispiest Chicken Cutlets You Can’t Mess Up

For something equally lovable but a bit less hands-on, try Eric Kim’s ritzy Cheddar chicken breasts. They rely on Ritz crackers and are baked in the oven, which means no Jackson Pollock oil splatters to clean up. Speaking of vegetarians: Priya Krishna calls vegetable pulao “a weeknight staple in many Desi households” because it’s wildly flexible. Not only is it less messy, but I find it’s easier to get an even thickness when the slippery meat is neatly contained. You can do this in advance, then roll or fold up the sheets — meat included — and store in the fridge until you’re ready to bread and fry.

Now that I’m all grown up, I prefer to add a bit of desi flavor to her original recipe.”

CNN —If Roy Wood Jr. and Desi Lydic know who’s taking over for Trevor Noah as host of “The Daily Show,” they aren’t sharing. For Wood, “The Daily Show” – with its mix of comedy and current events – is a gig that allows him to combine his passions. For Lydic, a highlight is doing her segment “Foxsplains,” which spoofs right wing media coverage. Being able to find humor in difficult stories – from politics to race and the pandemic – is part of the magic of “The Daily Show,” Wood said. !’ and then it was right back to work,” Wood said.
Reyes said Hollywood films often reflected the politics of their time — and that had an influence on Latino roles. Studies by the Government Accountability Office, the University of Southern California and other groups consistently show that Latinos are underrepresented in the film industry. Just this year, UCLA’s Hollywood Diversity Report documented “enormous gains” by women and people of color, but Latino representation still lagged. Slowly but surely, we are shaking up the narrative in Hollywood.”Calderón is frustrated by the continuing practice of “brownface,” whereby Latino roles go to white actors. Sanchez cited Eugenio Derbez in “Coda” (2021) as an example of a well-written Latino film character.
Those kids are now young adults, and that state of South Asian comedy looks far different than it did 10 years ago. “The South Asian people I grew up with, we were all collectively embarrassed of our culture and background,” said Ayaon Yadav, 21.

In that time, South Asian food experts say, brands have taken notice. The South Asian household staple is now blowing up on health TikTok. Influencers have recorded themselves eating spoonfuls of ghee, posing with the product in stores and promoting it as a new find. “That’s part of the reason why it is important to a South Asian population.”In Hindu ceremonies, it’s a staple. Most of all, it’s an essential component of South Asian comfort food, one that many people can associate with the quick-fix meals of early youth.
Noul partid anti-sistem din Bulgaria, Există un Astfel de Popor (ITN), condus de un cântăreț și moderator de talk-show-uri, a ajuns pe primul loc într-un sondaj realizat înainte de alegerile anticipate de duminică, relatează Reuters, citat de digi24.ro. Totuși, sondajul realizat de Alpha Research din Sofia arată că, deși sprijinul pentru mai multe formațiuni anti-sistem a crescut, ele nu ar putea să formeze un guvern. „În pofida îmbunătăţirii poziţiilor, partidele care contestă starea sistemului, nu obţin cele 120 de voturi necesare pentru o majoritate. În acest context, găsirea formulei coaliţiei probabil va fi elementul central în viitoarea legislatură, la fel cum a fost şi după scrutinul din aprilie”, potrivit analiștilor Institutului Alpha Research. ITN a fost surpriza alegerilor din aprilie, clasându-se pe locul doi și depășind Partidul Socialist, unul dintre partidele tradiționale bulgare.

Eugenia Caracaș a pornit o afacere alături de cumnata sa, care de asemenea se afla în străinătate. Au creat mai întâi la Călărași un centru de dezvoltare, care oferă cursuri de robotică, aritmetică mentală, dar și ateliere de creație cu pixuri 3D. Și-a făcut studiile la cele mai bune universități din lume și deși ar fi putut avea salarii de zeci de mii de euro peste hotare, a decis să înceapă totul de la zero acasă. „Mi-am făcut studiile în Marea Britanie, dețin un postuniversitar în psihologia aplicată la Oxford University și nivelul 16 avansat de engleză generală la Cambridge" , a spus Eugenia Caracaș, fondatoarea unui centru de dezvoltare.

Rusia se va implica în conflictul din Afganistan doar dacă ostilitățile se vor extinde peste granițele acestei țări și vor afecta țări terțe, aliate ale Rusiei, a declarat ministrul rus de externe, Serghei Lavrov. În plus, Moscova susţine punerea în aplicare a acordurilor dintre Washington şi talibani, a spus ministrul rus. Purtătorul de cuvânt al Kremlinului, Dmitri Peskov, a declarat că preşedintele Vladimir Putin sprijină desfăşurarea unui dialog între părţi într-o situaţie atât de tensionată. Shahabuddin Delawar, liderul delegaţiei insurgente care se află în vizită la Moscova, a declarat vineri, în timpul unei conferinţe de presă, că insurgenţii controlează în prezent „85% din teritoriul Afganistanului”. În acest sens, Moscova a avertizat asupra unei creşteri a tensiunii la graniţa dintre Afganistan şi Tadjikistan, două treimi din această frontieră fiind acum sub controlul insurgenţilor.
