Ai2’s Ali Farhadi advocates for open-source AI models. Here’s why

A year before Elon Musk helped start OpenAI in San Francisco, philanthropist and Microsoft cofounder Paul Allen already had established his own nonprofit artificial intelligence research laboratory in Seattle.

How ‘lore’ became the internet’s favorite way to overshare

Lore isn’t just for games like The Elder Scrolls or films like The Lord of the Rings—online, it has evolved into something entirely new.

These LinkedIn comedians are leaning into the cringe for clout

Turecký systém Göktan umožňuje pozemní vypouštění leteckých pum

Společnost Aselsan vyvinula systém Göktan, který umožňuje odpalovat ze země pokročilé letecké klouzavé pumy TOLUN, s využitím rakety společnosti DeltaV.

Pouhé tipy versus důvodné teorie v antické vědě

This slick new service puts ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Wikipedia on the map

I don’t know about you, but I tend to think about my favorite tech tools as being split into two separate saucepans: the “classic” apps we’ve known and relied on for ages and then the newer “AI” apps that have shown up over the past several months to serve some super-specific purpose.
