After the keynote, journalists were herded over to a demo area for Project Astra. Before we went in, while waiting in line, two members of the Project Astra team from DeepMind walked us through how to use the technology. Google's Gemini model reviewed the phone's live video and said I was wearing casual clothes. He's been at DeepMind for about a decade and we discussed the origins on Project Astra. Beyond chatbotsThis is part of what inspired Project Astra, Wayne said.

☆ I studied at Yale and Cambridge University. The elite colleges offered me secret societies, maids, and formal balls.

For my undergraduate degree, I went to Yale, and then for graduate school, I enrolled in Cambridge University. Dreary and massive, these buildings belonged to Yale’s oldest secret societies — hundreds of years old, with members including former presidents, Rockefellers, and Vanderbilts. As George Bush wrote in his memoir, “[In my] senior year, I joined Skull and Bones, a secret society; so secret, I can’t say anything more.”In my final year, I joined a secret society at Yale, which was founded 20 years ago. But my favorite memories at Yale and Cambridge were never at events in floor-length gowns or strappy heels. I’m tremendously lucky to have experienced this universe of elite education, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

☆ Opinion | I Finally Learned How to Draw. Here’s How.
  + stars: | 2023-09-15 | by ( Farhad Manjoo | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
For as long as I can remember, I’ve wanted to learn to draw. And for as long I can remember, I’ve been failing to learn to draw. A lot of drawing teachers say that everyone can learn to draw. A lot of drawing teachers haven’t met me, I thought. Then, in 2019, I started playing with Procreate, a digital drawing and painting app for the iPad (there’s an iPhone version, too).

☆ I was laid off from appraisal-tech firm Clear Capital. The culture became cold and impersonal, and I don't miss it.

Jason Doly/Getty ImagesAppraisal-tech firm Clear Capital laid off 27% of its staff, or about 378 people, on October 14. This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with a Clear Capital employee who was laid off during cuts that the appraisal-tech startup announced on October 14. But the way the company laid us off was cold and impersonal. Clear Capital used to try to stand out with its company culture, but that culture has been in decline for some time. How companies like Clear Capital operateAs a small appraisal company, Clear Capital hired internal appraisers primarily for quality-assurance tasks like reviewing appraisal reports.
