This reminded me how many impressive things humans have been able to discover and build. Things that were either dreams or something people couldn't even imagine are our "normal," and we completely forget how miraculous they would seem to people from the past. Someone should really make a movie about this. 🙂

Speaking of dinosaurs, there's this cool website - paleobiodb . org/navigator/ - that shows where dinos (and other fossils) were found. And it can be plotted on what Earth looked like at that point in time, tens or hundreds of millions of years ago. 🦖🦕

One of the largest and most complete Tyrannosaurus rex fossils yet discovered was recently purchased by an anonymous bidder in a Sotheby’s auction in New York City for $50 million, making it the most expensive fossil of any kind ever sold.

Some scientists opposed the sale on the grounds that it hinders paleontological research, arguing that it makes it more expensive for museums and research facilities to acquire fossils, while others noted they incentivize fossil poaching on public or Indigenous land.

- Don't miss the Prague Orloj + Old Town Square right next to it + Charles Bridge - these are the classics :)
- Another famous spot is Wenceslas Square, though it's currently undergoing reconstruction. Right there is also the National Museum (www. nm .cz)
- Prague Castle is beautiful too, historical and with nice views (www. hrad. cz/en/prague-castle-for-visitors)
- If you just want to wander and vibe: the Old Town area (Prague 1), Letná Park, Kampa Island, or Náplavka riverbank might be good for that
- A place you might like is DOX – Centre for Contemporary Art (www. dox. cz/en).
- Also, check out this article for tips on great design stores with unique products (www. czechdesign .cz/temata-a-rubriky/top-15-design-shops-galleries-in-prague-ultimate-prague-design-guide)
- And I recommend trying some traditional Czech cuisine, beer, and pastries
One more thing — it might be very hot these days, especially in the city center.☀️Have a good time🙂

@pmarca @bhorowitz What’s the most impressive thing AI has done that you’ve seen recently?

@pmarca @bhorowitz What are some areas/industries where you think AI could be transformative but isn't being heavily explored yet? Where do you see significant untapped potential?

Ten months ago, we launched the Vesuvius Challenge to solve the ancient problem of the Herculaneum Papyri, a library of scrolls that were flash-fried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.

Today we are overjoyed to announce that our crazy project has succeeded. After 2000 years, we can finally read the scrolls:
This image was produced by @Youssef_M_Nader, @LukeFarritor, and @JuliSchillij, who have now won the Vesuvius Challenge Grand Prize of $700,000. Congratulations!!

These fifteen columns come from the very end of the first scroll we have been able to read and contain new text from the ancient world that has never been seen before. The author – probably Epicurean philosopher Philodemus – writes here about music, food, and how to enjoy life's pleasures. In the closing section, he throws shade at unnamed ideological adversaries – perhaps the stoics? – who "have nothing to say about pleasure, either in general or in particular."

This year, the Vesuvius Challenge continues. The text that we revealed so far represents just 5% of one scroll.

In 2024, our goal is to from reading a few passages of text to entire scrolls, and we're announcing a new $100,000 grand prize for the first team that is able to read at least 90% of all four scrolls that we have scanned.

The scrolls stored in Naples that remain to be read represent more than 16 megabytes of ancient text. But the villa where the scrolls were found was only partially excavated, and scholars tell us that there may be thousands more scrolls underground. Our hope is that the success of the Vesuvius Challenge catalyzes the excavation of the villa, that the main library is discovered, and that whatever we find there rewrites history and inspires all of us.

It's been a great joy to work on this strange and amazing project. Thanks to Brent Seales for laying the foundation for this work over so many years, thanks to the friends and Twitter users whose donations powered our effort, and thanks to the many contestants whose contributions have made the Vesuvius Challenge successful!

@karpathy I wish all superiors would speak to their subordinates in such a gentle and polite way as you do to ChatGPT 😀 And thanks for the tip!

@Liv_Boeree @BoyanSlat @TheOceanCleanup Do you see a path for organizations like yours to become profitable while staying true to their mission?

What is it like to work in countries like Guatemala, Indonesia, or Malaysia? Are the locals/ governments open to cooperation?

Thank you for your work, I'm a huge fan 🙂
