☆ What happens when ChatGPT tries to create crochet patterns
▼ + stars: | 2023-07-08 | by ( Aj Willingham | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +11 min

ChatGPT, a publicly available language-learning AI, was not designed to create things like crochet or knitting patterns. Before we begin …A few notes on my methodology:For every crochet pattern I generated, I used the prompt “Create a crochet pattern for (blank).”I followed the crochet pattern exactly. At first glance, ChatGPT’s crochet patterns look and read exactly like a crochet pattern. In a traditional crochet pattern, instructions for assembly would note specific places and methods to attach pieces, along with photos or notes on particularly tricky steps. Theoretically, it would be possible to create AI that generated amazing crochet patterns, but that would require very specific training and programming.

Worldwide shipments of VR headsets and augmented reality devices dropped by more than 12% to 9.6 million in 2022, according to CCS Insight. For Vision Pro to be successful, it needs to replace personal computers, said Nicole Peng, senior vice president, mobility, at Canalys. She said that's the value proposition Vision Pro has set up, which is different from what Xreal or Meta offer. "Nreal, Xreal glasses still need to connect with a PC or a phone," Peng said. Apple has not released such figures for Vision Pro.

☆ Scientists find new clue in what led to megalodon’s demise
▼ + stars: | 2023-07-03 | by ( Amaya Mcdonald | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +4 min

Scientists previously theorized that megalodons were warm-blooded, but the new study is the first to provide concrete evidence to that effect. From this finding, they deduced the megalodon’s average body temperature was about 27 C (80 F). Like modern great white and mako sharks, megalodons were regionally endothermic, which means they had the ability to regulate temperature in certain parts of the body, according to the study. The timing of megalodons’ extinction coincides with the cooling of the Earth’s temperature, the researchers said. But learning more about the ancient shark could still help scientists better understand the threats similar marine animals face today.

Bad news for Apple: it's forecast to sell far fewer units of its $3,500 Vision Pro than planned. The FT reported that the new headset was facing production challenges in China. Apple is being forced to slash production forecasts for the Vision Pro because of supply-chain difficulties and technical woes, per an FT report. But the complexity of its design and production issues in China means it could hit less than half that target, per the outlet. The FT reported that Apple has been dissatisfied with the production of the screens.

An upcoming study from researchers at Stanford University offers a new way to trace far-flung smoke and pollution back to individual wildfires of origin. What’s burning in a wildfire determines what kind of pollution is in the smoke. Dr. Ford and others have studied wildfire smoke patterns, as well as the resulting exposure to particulate matter pollution. But the Stanford researchers have pulled off something new by putting the two together, she said, especially over so many years and so much land area. Aside from that, Dr. Lin thought the Stanford study would be very useful in figuring out the real human toll of wildfire smoke.

☆ The Emerging Science of Tracing Smoke Back to Wildfires

“Historically, we haven’t really been able to study those types of questions at a broad spatial, temporal scale,” Mr. Wen said. It’s clear that wildfires have become more frequent and intense in recent years, fueled in part by climate change’s role in drying out many landscapes. Less clear to scientists has been how smoke from these fires has changed over time. The new study shows that as fires have worsened, so has their smoke: From 2016 to 2020, the U.S. population experienced double the smoke pollution that it did 10 years earlier, from 2006 to 2010. While the study focused on historical data, some of its methods can also be used to predict where smoke from a new fire will travel.

Amazon is encoring another classic trick from its Prime Day deals bag for those who enjoy streaming music. Amazon Music Unlimited, its comprehensive music streaming service, is significantly discounted, and we're not even sure that's the correct term here. Normally, Music Unlimited costs $8.99 per month for Prime members and $10.99 for others. But with this early Prime Day deal, new subscribers can enjoy four months of one of the best music streaming services for free. A tempting Amazon Music Unlimited deal for sureAmazon Music Unlimited may not be the prodigious pick among a host of music streaming platforms, but it's a robust service that provides good value for money, especially with the current deal.

When it comes to spatial computing, Collins said, “no one knows what that is — and that provides Apple the opportunity to define it.”Collins used an NFT as an example: If someone tells you about “a digitized receipt of membership,” he said, you might ask follow-up questions like: What is that? How does it work? But if someone says, “I’m launching an NFT,” you might refer to what you already know about nonfungible tokens and be more likely to say, “No thanks, I’m good.”

But Thompson never doubted his talent and had a voracious appetite for culture in many forms: He consorted with New York’s Beat poets and its free jazz musicians as well as a broad range of artists. His career lasted barely eight years, but he left behind several hundred paintings, drawings and oil studies — a fabulous horde whose magnitude is still not well known. Some works are fairly true to the originals in their composition; elsewhere Thompson took liberties of all kinds. Frequent additions include large silhouettes of monstrous birds that protect, threaten or attack — either physically or spiritually. Sometimes the human figures grasp the birds by their feet, holding them aloft, like trophies or weapons.

In Germany, the trend towards tiny houses is associated with financial risks due to the peculiarities of German law. And it seems that Americans are also thrilled about the hardware store house. Excessive regulations and requirements hinder tiny houses in GermanyNevertheless, the demand for tiny houses is also growing in Germany. "It is easier to build your tiny house according to the individual building regulations of the selected property than to first build the tiny house and then look for a plot of land," explains the German Tiny House Association. Furthermore, it is often generally expensive to find a suitable place for one's own tiny house.

Apple's sky-high price tag for its latest product, the $3,499 Vision Pro headset, elicited groans from the crowd when it was announced. Instead, the entry-level device could be called something like the Apple Vision One — or simply the Apple Vision, according to the report. (Apple already runs this risk, even with the impressive screens currently within the Vision Pro.)

Apple blew reviewers and analysts away last Monday when it dropped the Vision Pro.

But behind this speculation is a more serious potential problem: even Apple may struggle to make VR headsets look cool.

In one early marketing image, a woman is shown wearing the headset while dressed in very chic clothing and lounging in an upscale living room.

CNN —It’s not surprising that Apple’s debut Monday of its $3,499 Vision Pro headset integrating virtual and augmented reality was greeted with mixed reactions, including skepticism, criticism and even lampooning. Each previous incarnation of a headset that immerses the wearer in a virtual world (called virtual reality, or VR) or lets wearers see their surroundings with virtual objects overlaid on them (augmented reality, or AR) started with overhyped expectations only to flame out. I am also doing my doctoral research on the history of virtual and augmented reality (known together as “extended reality”). These apps will be available to Vision Pro users as well. It’ll do anything your Mac or iPhone can do — and more.”And that’s why I believe that over time Apple’s Vision Pro will actually make science fiction scenarios of ubiquitous computing a reality.

According to the World Health Organization, average road traffic noise above 53 dB or average aircraft noise exposure above about 45 dB are associated with adverse health effects. This chart shows how many people in the United States may be exposed to various outdoor noise levels, on average.
