'Veronika' Is the First Cow Known to Use a Tool
'Veronika' Is the First Cow Known to Use a Tool This is the first recorded instance of a bovine using tools from her environment to relieve an itch--leaving scientists astonished. Justice for cartoonist Gary Larson: A team of scientists has observed, for the first time, a cow using a tool in a flexible manner. The ingenuity of "Veronika," as the animal is called, shows that cattle possess enough intelligence to manipulate elements of their environment and solve challenges they would otherwise be unable to overcome. Veronika is a pet cow in Austria. Nor was she trained to do tricks; on the contrary, for the past 10 years she has developed the ability to find branches in the grass, choose one, hold it with her mouth, and scratch herself with it to relieve skin irritation. Until now, only chimpanzees had convincingly demonstrated the ability to employ tools to improve their living conditions.
Scottish distillery wants to bottle whisky in aluminum, not glass
Stirling Distillery has two years to figure it out. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Scotland's smallest whisky distillery also hopes to be one of the most innovative in time for its first batch's debut. But with only around two years until Sterling Distillery's inaugural liquor matures, it remains to be seen if the company can ditch traditional glass bottles for a material associated more with cheap beer than fine whisky--aluminum. Any serious distillery uses glass bottles for the good stuff.

Ads are coming to ChatGPT soon. Here's what they look like
PCWorld reports that OpenAI will begin testing display ads in ChatGPT within the coming weeks, targeting adult US users including both free and ChatGPT Go subscribers. Sponsored advertisements will appear at the bottom of relevant chatbot responses, clearly separated from organic content, with users maintaining control to view details or reject unwanted ads. This advertising integration aims to make AI tools more accessible to broader audiences while potentially reducing current usage restrictions on the platform. In early December of last year, OpenAI mentioned the possibility of adding advertisements to ChatGPT. Now, the AI company has confirmed that it'll soon start testing display ads in the AI chatbot. To start, sponsored ads will appear at the bottom of ChatGPT responses when relevant products and/or services are mentioned in an ongoing conversation with the chatbot. The ads will be separated from the "organic" response, and you'll be able to see more details about why that particular ad was displayed, as well as choose to reject it if you wish.
