LinkedIn’s new AI assistant can help recruiters match with top candidates

LinkedIn is hoping to use AI to make it easier for job recruiters and qualified candidates to find one another.

A new AI Hiring Assistant will soon let recruiters supply job descriptions and notes on qualifications, then automatically generate a short list of LinkedIn users who look like a good match for the job. And as recruiters go through the list of suggested candidates, the AI will indicate which of a job’s required and preferred qualifications each person appears to have.

Why the EU’s biometric border-check system has failed to launch

For years, the EU has had a grand plan to try and keep track of those passing in and out of its trading bloc of 27 countries. It would introduce a biometric border-check system that would log fingerprints and photographs, similar to what’s in place at the U.S. border.

The system was first meant to be introduced in 2022. Then May 2023. Then the end of that year. A new date of October 6, 2024, was set, but that’s

Pesticidy činí půdu atraktivnější

Že látky určené k ochraně rostlin a hubení živočišných škůdců hmyzu neprospívají, je přece každému jasné. Jak si ale vysvětlit nynější poznatek, že královny čmeláků dávají přednost půdě kontaminované? A že jim je doslova šuma fuk o jaký pesticid jde, hlavně že je jejich vybrané místo k hybernaci jedovaté.

Jak rychlý je kvantový entanglement? Fyzici jdou na úroveň attosekund
