Before his death, Dellschau created depictions of fantastical flying machines that he called'aeros,' which often resembled a mix of early airships, balloons and primitive airplanes.

The 20 best video games of 2025
An arena warrior on a losing streak takes refuge in a vast forest where she discovers the joy of working in a cosy teashop. From this simple premise comes a joyful game of mindfulness and social interaction, as Alta learns how to serve up witty conversation and decent hot drinks. Colourful and highly stylised, it is a thoughtful study of burnout and recovery. An attempted-murder mystery set in an a 1920s all-girls private school reveals itself to also be an eviscerating takedown of British class politics. Witty and beautifully drawn, it is full of amusing boarding-school stereotypes, from self-interested prefects to a terrifying matron, whose motivations and personal grievances must be slowly unpicked.

Call of Duty is back, and it's got a battle on its hands
Call of Duty is back, and it's got a battle on its hands There are some things you can always rely on, and a new Call of Duty game coming out each year is one of them. As one of the best-known names in video games, it's a series that needs little introduction. According to publisher Activision, it's sold an estimated 500 million copies, a movie adaptation is on the way, and despite having launched in 2003 it still reliably appears at - or near - the top of the annual bestseller charts. But this year the world's top military shooter might have a fight on its hands. Battlefield 6, which has been a huge hit for rival gaming giant Electronic Arts, has been drawing attention away from its veteran competitor.

Memorization: A Close Look at Books
Ma, Iris, Domingo, Ian, Krone-Martins, Alberto, Baldi, Pierre, Lopes, Cristina V.
To what extent can entire books be extracted from LLMs? Using the Llama 3 70B family of models, and the "prefix-prompting" extraction technique, we were able to auto-regressively reconstruct, with a very high level of similarity, one entire book (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland) from just the first 500 tokens. We were also able to obtain high extraction rates on several other books, piece-wise. However, these successes do not extend uniformly to all books. We show that extraction rates of books correlate with book popularity and thus, likely duplication in the training data. We also confirm the undoing of mitigations in the instruction-tuned Llama 3.1, following recent work (Nasr et al., 2025). We further find that this undoing comes from changes to only a tiny fraction of weights concentrated primarily in the lower transformer blocks. Our results provide evidence of the limits of current regurgitation mitigation strategies and introduce a framework for studying how fine-tuning affects the retrieval of verbatim memorization in aligned LLMs.

Measuring and Analyzing Intelligence via Contextual Uncertainty in Large Language Models using Information-Theoretic Metrics
Large Language Models (LLMs) excel on many task-specific benchmarks, yet the mechanisms that drive this success remain poorly understood. We move from asking what these systems can do to asking how they process information. Our contribution is a task-agnostic method that builds a quantitative Cognitive Profile for any model. The profile is built around the Entropy Decay Curve-a plot of a model's normalised predictive uncertainty as context length grows. Across several state-of-the-art LLMs and diverse texts, the curves expose distinctive, stable profiles that depend on both model scale and text complexity. We also propose the Information Gain Span (IGS) as a single index that summarises the desirability of a decay pattern. Together, these tools offer a principled way to analyse and compare the internal dynamics of modern AI systems.

If you love AI, you'll love Ken Liu's new cyberpunk thriller
If you love AI, you'll love Ken Liu's new cyberpunk thriller In Ken Liu's All That We See or Seem, a once-famous hacker must find a missing dream-weaver. The latest novel by Ken Liu, All That We See or Seem, is the near-future story of the mysterious disappearance of a professional dream-weaver called Elli. It is being marketed as a cyberpunk thriller . Full disclosure: I don't generally seek out thrillers or cyberpunk books, so I may not be the target audience for this. But I was keen to read it because Liu has not one but two claims to fame: as well as being the author of a celebrated fantasy series called The Dandelion Dynasty, he is also the translator of the sensationally good Remembrance of Earth's Past trilogy by Cixin Liu .
