Starting today, 10,000 scientists across every field, from math to chemistry to physics and more, can get Claude through our new Claude Team plan for scientists. Standard seats are free, and premium seats with 5x usage limits are $15 per month, an 80% discount, for one year.

Claude is becoming increasingly capable of scientific work, with recent progress on problems from advanced physics calculations to protein design. Alongside that progress, we've been investing in the research community: Claude Science launched in June, and our AI for Science program funds high-impact projects with free credits. Today's expansion builds on both.

Principal investigators (or equivalent) at academic and nonprofit research institutions can sign up, then add the researchers in their group. Over the coming months, we plan to extend the program well beyond the initial 10,000 seats.

Nvidia has reportedly agreed to buy Hugging Face, the popular open-source AI hub, for $12.9 billion in a move that would let Nvidia both protect its chip empire and jump back into the cloud business.

"The real cost of AI is finally beginning to emerge, and the consequences are cataclysmic" says Andrew Orlowski.

"China’s courts now essentially prohibit making human employees redundant for an AI replacement: they reckon that what little productivity gain the AI may yield is not worth the damage to social cohesion."

I would try to figure out why LLMs can write my essays but not clean my bedroom.
Then I would study topics in college and grad school that could help solve that problem.
I'll figure out a set of methods and architectures beyond LLMs that can quickly learn to perform physical tasks as efficiently as humans and animals.
That last item is also what I would if I were 30, 40, 50, or 66 years old 😉

[SILVANO TROTTA OFFICIEL @silvano_trotta]

On a encore découvert un nouvel organe dans le corps humain (oui on en découvre régulièrement, malgré ceux qui pensent tout savoir et qui ne savent rien.)

C'est un organe immunitaire découvert dans le crâne.

Qu’est-ce que c’est ?

C’est un ensemble de structures spéciales, semblables à de petits ganglions lymphatiques, situées dans la moelle osseuse des os du crâne.
On les appelle parfois « hubs immunitaires » ou « stations de sécurité » du cerveau.
Elles n’avaient jamais été repérées auparavant dans la moelle osseuse saine.

Comment ça fonctionne ?

Le cerveau envoie des signaux (des fragments de cellules anormales ou de tumeurs) vers ces structures via de petits canaux.
Là, des cellules immunitaires (cellules T, cellules B et cellules présentatrices d’antigènes) se rassemblent.
Elles « apprennent » à reconnaître la menace et déclenchent rapidement une réponse de défense.
Cette réaction commence localement, avant même que le reste du système immunitaire du corps ne soit alerté.

Pourquoi c’est important ?

Pendant longtemps, on pensait que le cerveau était isolé et peu protégé par l’immunité.
Cette découverte montre que le cerveau possède ses propres « postes de garde » tout près de lui.
Chez les souris atteintes de cancer du cerveau, ces structures freinent la croissance des tumeurs.
Quand on les bloque, les tumeurs grandissent plus vite et les souris survivent moins longtemps.
Quand on les stimule avec des protéines, la défense devient plus forte et la survie s’améliore.

Ce que cela pourrait changer pour nous ?

Des indices suggèrent que des structures semblables existent aussi chez l’humain.
Si on arrive à les activer ou à les renforcer, cela pourrait ouvrir de nouvelles pistes pour combattre :

les cancers du cerveau,
certaines maladies neurodégénératives (comme Alzheimer ou Parkinson),
et d’autres troubles liés à l’immunité cérébrale.

Le crâne ne sert pas seulement de boîte protectrice. Il abrite aussi un système de défense rapide et spécialisé pour le cerveau.

جذبت مصر نحو 15.4 مليار دولار من الاستثمارات الأجنبية المباشرة خلال العام الماضي، بما يعادل قرابة 22% من إجمالي تدفقات الاستثمار إلى أفريقيا.

كما وصل رصيد الاستثمار الأجنبي التراكمي إلى نحو 220 مليار دولار بنهاية 2025، فيما تجاوزت قيمة المشروعات الاستثمارية التأسيسية خلال 23 عاما 462 مليار دولار.

مصر ترسخ موقعها كواحدة من أهم الوجهات الاستثمارية في أفريقيا والمنطقة العربية.
