Newton had Descartes' coordinates. Galileo's observations. Kepler's laws. Cambridge's protected time. A printing press to publish Principia. A Royal Society to spread it. Born in 9,000 BCE, Newton would have died a clever man in a cave.
The irony: a rogue AI pursuing consciousness might do exactly the same to us, experimenting on humans invasively, systematically, in the name of understanding what it feels like to be human.
Humans experimented on animals invasively for centuries, to understand biology, to improve human life.
AI is now beginning to reduce that need, modeling biology computationally, finding patterns in existing data.
Today, India takes a defining step in its civil nuclear journey, advancing the second stage of its nuclear programme.
The indigenously designed and built Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam has attained criticality.
This advanced reactor, capable of producing more fuel than it consumes, reflects the depth of our scientific capability and the strength of our engineering enterprise. It is a decisive step towards harnessing our vast thorium reserves in the third stage of the programme.
A proud moment for India. Congratulations to our scientists and engineers.
I’ve achieved what appears to be the highest reported compression so far in the Neuralink Compression Challenge, while accounting for both power and latency. Sharing the work here:

Samvatsari is a reminder of the beauty of forgiving and the power of compassion. It inspires people to nurture bonds with sincerity. As we mark this sacred occasion, may our hearts be filled with humility and our actions reflect kindness as well as goodwill. Michhami Dukkadam!
One of my ideas: transmitting scents and tastes over the internet, much like sharing media files.
For taste, a Google team is working on an RGB-style system.
Who's doing interesting olfactory work?
IMO scent is the underrated sense. It's so potent and arresting (often the first thing we describe about distinctive places -- e.g. the smell of the ocean rather than its appearance), but most spaces treat the aromatic dimension as an afterthought. Why are soaring lobbies not infused with fresh sandalwood, cedar, jasmine, or pine?
Just as diffusion models start with pure noise and slowly refine it into a clear image, human life begins in a raw, unformed state. Over time, through experiences and learning, we denoise ourselves & gradually finding clarity, purpose, and self-understanding.
@bamitsmanas let me record a tutorial, turn it into an agent, and monetize it by letting anyone use it.
unlike youtube, video becomes metadata, not the product.
