By analyzing past successes and failures, GRAO becomes progressively better at proposing effective updates, allowing the system to learn how to optimize itself.

The core of our framework is Group Relative Agent Optimization (GRAO), a novel meta-learning strategy that learns from historical optimization experiences.

Existing automatic optimization methods, primarily focused on flat prompt tuning, lack the structural awareness to debug the intricate web of interactions in MAS.

We realized we were optimizing the wrong thing. We were orienting our system around coding sessions and merged PRs, when PRs and sessions are really a means to an end.

Each engineer would open a few Codex sessions, assign tasks, review the output, steer the agent, and repeat.

We introduce WorldMark, the first benchmark that provides such a common playing field for interactive Image-to-Video world models.

These papers suggest that strategic data engineering and inference-time optimization can substitute for raw parameter count.

Both illustrate how decomposing complex tasks across specialized agents can address problems that monolithic models handle poorly.

The quality and structure of training data matters more than its volume.

Small models that punch far above their weight class.

The most urgent finding this week comes from researchers who demonstrated that the very mechanism enabling agents to use tools - function calling - can be hijacked with alarming reliability.

Nothing in between. A model that arrives at the correct answer through careful reasoning receives the same reward as one that guesses correctly by chance.

They deliver every answer with the same unshakable certainty, whether they're right or guessing.

By predicting these unified tokens, it effectively leverages diverse human data to achieve state-of-the-art data efficiency and robust out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization.

Scaling humanoid foundation models is bottlenecked by the scarcity of robotic data.

We make products, tools, and datasets available to everyone with the goal of building a more collaborative ecosystem.

Publishing our work allows us to share ideas and work collaboratively to advance the field of computer science.

We regularly open-source projects with the broader research community and apply our developments to Google products.

Our researchers drive advancements in computer science through both fundamental and applied research.

We strive to create an environment conducive to many different types of research across many different time scales and levels of risk.

We’ve lost the moral compass for what we invest into

The true founders—not the ones who want to make a lot of money or do it because their roommates want to do it—are closer to artists than to any other profession.

For Silicon Valley investors, sorting out the students who can make it big from the wannabes has become a high-stakes competition.

These teenagers are sometimes handed “pre-idea funding”—hundreds of thousands of dollars, or in rare cases, even millions—before they have the glimmer of an actual company in mind.

Even with that, World has had trouble getting buy-in from the general public, and rightfully so. Trusting your biometrics to any third party seems like a mistake (just look at how well third-party verification services have handled the sensitive data entrusted to them for age-assurance checks).

The company reportedly has about 18 million verified users thus far, but many of them are people in developing nations who signed up because of the promise of Worldcoin, a cryptocurrency that has seemingly fallen out of World’s plans.

The company is pitching itself as a potential solution to ticket scalping, and announced that it has built software called Concert Kit that ticketers can use to ensure only real people and not scalper bots are purchasing tickets.

World has already been working with Tinder and ran a pilot of the verification process in Japan. It was apparently enough of a success that Tinder will roll out the authentication method globally.

According to a press release, users will be required to undergo World’s verification method, which requires having their eyeballs scanned at a physical location with a proprietary device to prove they are human.

And it’s not just the US putting chatbots at commanders’ fingertips; China is commissioning similar tools, according to recent [analysis] by Georgetown University’s Center for Security and Emerging Technology.

Algorithms that scour hours of surveillance footage and pick out, say, trucks with mounted machine guns date back to the war in Afghanistan.

The transition from isolated AI models to the aggregated, metered token economy will unlock the twenty-first.

This dynamic forces a brutal new discipline in how enterprises deploy capital and architect their internal workflows.

Consider the deep anatomy of an individual AI session to understand how this telemetry actually works in practice.

A token is the fundamental, indivisible unit of cognitive work. It is the exact equivalent of the kilowatt-hour for the artificial intelligence grid.

The grid standardized power. It violently divorced the complex generation of electricity from its seamless consumption.

The smartest companies are no longer just hiring talent; they are purchasing synthetic intelligence by the gigawatt.

The smartest companies are no longer just hiring talent; they are purchasing synthetic intelligence by the gigawatt.

Maintaining the standards in this policy is a shared obligation across our editorial operation.

Anyone who uses AI tools in our editorial workflow is responsible for the accuracy and integrity of the resulting work.

The issue for many people isn’t the technology itself (though there are many ethical issues in how it was trained). The issue is the stupid state of our capitalist system, and the weird way companies are trying to force it down everyone’s throats.

They also have the benefits of running on hardware that’s sipping power most of the time, rather than slurping it down in massive data centres.

It’s already possible to run LLMs on local hardware, and that’s only going to get easier in the future.

Anthropic’s Head of Growth, Amol Avasare, said [this was caused by a “test” gone slightly wrong](https://x.com/TheAmolAvasare/status/2046788872517066971). Apparently only 2% of users were supposed to see the new pricing page.

In terms of counterstories related to MLs’ family and community engagement, Staehr Fenner (2014) notes that ML families often participate and are very actively engaged in their children’s education in ways that may be less obvious or visible to some educators.

When we examine ML family and community engagement on a deeper level, we must also examine the role of counterstories, which are unofficial stories that serve to challenge the narrative of those in power (Chapman, 2007). Critical theory holds that all relationships are structured around power, and within these relationships certain groups have privilege while others do not. Mainstream practices (which include classroom practices) often reinforce oppressive systems that are organized around class, race, and gender (DeCuir-Gunby et al., 2013).

A community walk is a student- or parent-led tour that helps break down barriers between schools and communities, enabling educators to learn about students’ communities on the students’ and/or parents’ terms (Safir, 2017).

The incentives almost guarantee we are in big trouble. Many workers, quite rationally, want to do well on whatever dimension they are being measured on. If they are judged by the surface-level quality of their work, then it's no surprise most of 'their' output will be written by LLMs.

Large language models are great at simulating a style of writing without necessarily reproducing the quality of the work.

All of knowledge work has this problem. It's hard to objectively judge the quality of someone's work without spending a lot of effort on it. Therefore everyone relies heavily on proxy measures.

You've received a report, a market analysis for the new product you're planning to launch. Reading through it you notice problems: the date on the report doesn't match the date you requested it on, it's from 6 months prior. Several paragraphs have obvious spelling errors. Some graphs are mislabeled and duplicated.

Critics called the manifesto [fascist](https://bsky.app/profile/gilduran.com/post/3mjwqsyj54s2a)

But for employees, the culture shift feels intentional. ‘I don’t want to assert that I have knowledge of what’s going on in their internal mind,’ one former worker tells WIRED. ‘But maybe it's gotten to a place where encouraging independent thought and questioning leads to some bad conclusions.’

Here, he’s been consistent; in March 2024 Karp told a CNBC reporter that ‘if you have a position that does not cost you ever to lose an employee, it’s not a position’

The message received more than 50 ‘+1’ emojis

The post—which includes many of Karp’s long-standing beliefs on how Silicon Valley could better serve US national interests—goes as far as suggesting that the US should consider reinstating the draft

Karp gave an interview to CNBC claiming that AI could undermine the power of ‘humanities-trained—largely Democratic—voters’ and increase the power of working-class male voters

We hire the best and brightest talent to help defend America and its allies and to build and deploy our software to help governments and businesses around the world.

Employees could accept the intense external criticism and awkward conversations with family and friends about working for a company named after J. R. R. Tolkien’s corrupting all-seeing orb

Last fall, Palantir seemed to become the technological backbone of Trump’s immigration enforcement machinery, providing software identifying, tracking, and helping deport immigrants on behalf of the Department of Homeland Security

At one point during the call, one of the employees tried to level with the group, explaining that Palantir’s work with ICE was a priority for Karp and something that likely wouldn’t change any time soon.

Around this time, Palantir started wiping Slack conversations after seven days in at least one channel where most of the internal debate takes place, #palantir-in-the-news.

We were supposed to be the ones who were preventing a lot of these abuses. Now we're not preventing them. We seem to be enabling them.

Palantir was founded—with initial venture capital investment from the CIA—at a moment of national consensus following the September 11, 2001, attacks

Interviews with current and former Palantir employees, along with internal Slack messages obtained by WIRED, suggest a workforce in turmoil.

Last fall, Palantir seemed to become the technological backbone of Trump’s immigration enforcement machinery, providing software identifying, tracking, and helping deport immigrants on behalf of the Department of Homeland Security

The company has also had to make major investments in its AI efforts in order to keep up with competitors in the space — earlier this month, it debuted a completely overhauled AI product called Muse Spark.

In summary, insufficient sleep exerts significant negative effects on both physiological and psychological health. Disruptions to the circadian rhythm initiate a cascade of molecular and behavioral changes, including impaired cellular function, increased cell apoptosis, and reduced neuronal excitability. These disruptions adversely affect the activity and functional connectivity of various brain regions, leading to delayed responses, cognitive decline, and heightened emotional instability. The cumulative evidence highlights the crucial role of sleep in maintaining both physical health and mental well-being. Given the widespread and multifaceted impact of sleep deprivation, it is imperative to prioritize sleep health in public health initiatives. Effective interventions should aim not only at improving individual sleep habits but also at addressing systemic factors that contribute to sleep disruption, thereby mitigating the long-term health risks associated with chronic sleep deficiency.

Studies shown that factors such as shift work, stress and the use of media and electronic devices before sleep contribute to the physiological changes in the secretion of melatonin, leading to sleep deprivation

During sleep, there are same biological and physiological process inside of the body, including blood pressure regulation, heart rate, hormone secretion and immune defense function, cell repair, temperature control, memory recovery and cognitive ability all occur during sleep

These interconnect with spreading grounds throughout the watershed, providingan ideal opportunity to create green infrastructure for stormwater capture, groundwater recharge, and habitatthat can provide a network of trails, pocket parks, and community gardens.

The hydrology of the lower watershed has been substantially modified with channelized streams, spreadingbasins, and more than 42 percent impervious surface land cover. As a result, it is estimated that onlyapproximately 8 percent of rainfall in urbanized areas soaks into the ground, while the rest is carriedoff via street gutters, storm drains, and the channelized washes. The concrete lining the former streamchannels prevents surface water from infiltrating into the underlying ground water basin (and groundwaterfrom entering stream channels). In addition, hydrologic connections between the stream channel and theadjacent fl oodplain have been reduced or eliminated

Permanent protection of open space is warranted,particularly along these corridors and in the urban fringe above Hansen Dam

old stream courses can be identified, the opportunities for successful restoration oflower watershed habitats are greatly enhanced. The highly permeable soils of the alluvial fan are still there,with their ability to capture and infiltrate stormwater to recharge the aquifer.

Historically sagescrub, some prairie grassland, and wildflowers were typical. Dominant plants were drought-deciduous, soft-leaved plants that included California sagebrush, black sage, California buckwheat, and coyote brush. Themore permanent of the braided stream channels supported riparian corridors, with black walnut woodlandsand fl oodplain forest at major stream confluences

We have three general types of habitat in our watershed: aquatic, riparian, or terrestrial (or upland). Aquatichabitats are those that depend on water for existence, including seasonal inundation such as wetlands.Riparian habitats are a transitional zone between aquatic and terrestrial habitats where proximity to wateris a requirement. Terrestrial or upland habitats make up most of the watershed.

The Tujunga Watershed is a major contributor to the regional groundwater supply and,since channelization, the aquifer underlying the watershed has experienced less thannatural infiltration of stormwater, but still provides nearly 13 percent of the City's drinkingwater supply.

The Tujunga Wash is located in the San Fernando Valley with its headwaters in the SanGabriel Mountains. It is a major tributary of the Los Angeles River. (U.S. Army Corps ofEngineers, Darrell Buxton, May 2005) The Tujunga Wash is situated within a 225square mile watershed (See map below.), which is the largest subwatershed of the LosAngeles River Watershed. (The State of the Tujunga, The River Project/CalFed BayDelta, October 2006). The Tujunga Watershed, which includes both the Big Tujunga,Little Tujunga, and Pacoima Washes, is the subject of an ongoing study, The TujungaWatershed Project, being prepared by The River Project for the California Bay DeltaAuthority (CalFed Bay Delta). (Ibid.) This area is home to more than half a millionpeople. (Tujunga Watershed Project Demographic Summary, March 2005) Themajority of the population lives within the City of Los Angeles; however, the watershedalso includes the City of San Fernando, which is surrounded by Los Angeles. (Ibid.)More than half of the Tujunga Wash's upper watershed is located within the sparsely-populated Angeles National Forest; its lower watershed is highly urbanized with varyingdensities of development. (Ibid.

Historically, Tujunga Wash was a braided channel system with at least threechannels...The main channel occurred along the same curved path as thecurrent Tujunga Wash with a narrower active channel within a larger channel thatflowed during large flood events. During large storm events two minor channelsbranched off on the eastern side of the main channel. The historical channelwidth (prior to 1927) is estimated to have ranged between 1,200 feet and 2,850feet with a flow capacity of 13,400 to 80,900 cubic feet per second (cfs). (p. 35)

As the US diplomats well understood, the military’s real war was not against the chimera of a communist threat, but against liberalism. It was a poisonous hatred not unlike that imported by the Nazis who had found safe refuge in Argentina. When I first began researching the Nazi escape to Argentina, I was looking for ways in which their presence could have directly inspired the crimes of the dictatorship. As it turned out, I found no physical point of contact and no evidence of direct ties: there were no aging SS officers torturing young prisoners in Argentina’s dungeons during the 1970s.

kground Lawnside, originally known as Free Haven and later Snow Hill, developed as a community where formerly enslaved and free Black people could own land and build independent lives. Founded with support from abolitionists, it became a key site on the Underground Railroad and later the first self-governing black municipality north of the Mason-Dixon line. From the landownership and property data, it's clear that access to land was central to the community's success, and many of the property owners had multiple plots of land..

In 2021, ANID published the “National Policy for Open Science,” establishing guidelines to promote open access to publications, data, and other research outputs. This policy emphasizes the importance of data management plans, the use of interoperable repositories, and the adoption of FAIR principles. Additionally, the policy encourages the development of training programs and support structures to facilitate the transition toward open science practices.

In Chile, the open science movement has been gaining traction, with various initiatives and policies being implemented to promote transparency and accessibility in research.

Looking ahead, the field of librarianship will undoubtedly continue to evolve, adapting to new technological advancements and the ever-changing needs of society. This dynamic landscape presents exciting opportunities for future librarians to shape the future of information access and knowledge sharing. The core values of service, access, and intellectual freedom will remain constant, even as the tools and methodologies continue to transform. Therefore, let us recognize the modern librarian for what they truly are: not relics of the past, but vital catalysts for progress in the 21st century – essential partners in navigating the complexities of our information-rich world and fostering informed, connected, and empowered communities. The future of knowledge and its accessibility rests, in no small part, in their capable hands.

Problem-Solving and Critical Thinking: Navigating Information Challenges The modern librarian is frequently called upon to solve complex information-related problems. This requires strong analytical and critical thinking skills to assess user needs, evaluate information sources, and develop effective search strategies. The ability to think logically, troubleshoot technical issues, and critically analyze information landscapes is fundamental to providing effective guidance and support.

Once upon a time, the quintessential librarian was known for one thing: shushing. That, and perhaps her encyclopedic knowledge of the Dewey Decimal System. A quiet desk, a card catalog, and a slightly dusty cardigan rounded out the scene. Taking the Next Step Find Master’s Degree Programs in Library Science Explore Online MLS Degree Programs Fast forward to today.
