All-time best quote from Dune:

"Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them."

Bi Gan and Bertrand Bonello have produced brilliant films about the erosion of human life in the Post-Singularity/AI Era. Resurrection was an amazing Buddhist parable and The Beast used a Henry James novella as a framing to show loss of human being in a world of “AI alignment”.

Researchers at @ucsc have now reported on what they suggest is the first-ever method for analyzing #RNAsequencing data genome-wide using a “pantranscriptome,” which combines a transcriptome and a pangenome. Learn more: https://t.co/IrefDkIOkz

Great line from Bret Easton Ellis’s new book. It’s my favorite since Glamorama and is #meta is so many ways. #TheShards #BEE

[Alexander Stojanovic @stojanovic]

Bret Easton Ellis truly is his own best literary creation. I am thoroughly enjoying #TheShards as a meta-fictional conceit. This extends the self-reflexive tropes of “Lunar Park” well. "The Shards: A novel" by Bret Easton Ellis https://t.co/ggBRAtndnp

Can neural networks learn to perform explanatory & counterfactual reasoning? Researchers find that an object-centric transformer substantially outperforms leading neuro-symbolic models on two reasoning tasks thought to be challenging for deep neural nets: https://t.co/IchQKRDjRL
