“How the shape of deep learning—and the fate of the tech industry—went up for sale in Harrah’s Room 731, on the shores of Lake Tahoe. …[The auction for Geoff Hinton’s newly formed AI company] was the beginning of a global arms race, and this race would quickly escalate in ways that would have seemed absurd a few years before.”

Scientists Grow Mouse Embryos in a Mechanical Womb
جینا کولاٹا | نیو یارک ٹائمز
“The mouse embryos looked perfectly normal. All their organs were developing as expected, along with their limbs and circulatory and nervous systems. Their tiny hearts were beating at a normal 170 beats per minute. But these embryos were not growing in a mother mouse. They were developed inside an artificial uterus, the first time such a feat has been accomplished, scientists reported on Wednesday.”

Your Face Is Not Your Own
Kashmir Hill | The New York Times Magazine
“It seemed entirely possible that Clearview AI would be sued, legislated or shamed out of existence. But that didn’t happen. With no federal law prohibiting or even regulating the use of facial recognition, Clearview did not, for the most part, change its practices. Nor did it implode. …’Our growth rate is crazy,’ Hoan Ton-That, Clearview’s chief executive, said.”

See the World’s Smallest Origami Bird Fold Itself Into Nanoscale Art
امندا کوسر | CNET
“The tiny scale of the bird is hard to wrap your mind around. Co-author Paul McEuen of Cornell compared the nanoscale bird with a regular piece of paper: ‘One thing that’s quite remarkable is that these little tiny layers are only about 30 atoms thick, compared to a sheet of paper, which might be 100,000 atoms thick.’ Cornell released a video explaining the process and showing the origami in action, folding itself from flat into a dainty bird.”

Yandex’s Autonomous Cars Have Driven Over Six Million Miles in ‘Challenging Conditions’
S. Shah | Engadget
“[Yandex’s] vehicles recently hit a major milestone by driving over six million miles (10 million kilometers) in autonomous mode, with the majority of the distance traveled in the Russian capital. That’s significant because Moscow poses some of the most difficult weather conditions in the world. …For self-driving cars—which rely on light-emitting sensors, known as lidar, to track the distance between objects—snowfall and condensation can play havoc with visibility."

Astronomers Spotted a Black Hole Casually Gliding Through Space
اسحاق شلٹز | گیزموڈو
“These extraordinarily dense objects are usually found sitting at the center of a galaxy violently gobbling up matter, so it was a surprise when astronomers spotted this one moving out of step with its resident galaxy. Containing more than 3 million times the mass of our Sun, the black hole was advancing across the cosmos at a 110,000-mile-per-hour clip…”
