WHO doesn't expect large Hantavirus outbreak US blockade keeps stranglehold on Iran's economy The Panthers star told Pat McAfee the U.S. is heading to Switzerland to win, not for a vacation If anyone thought Team USA was satisfied with Olympic gold and ready to coast through the rest of the international hockey calendar, Matthew Tkachuk has a message. The Florida Panthers star joined The Pat McAfee Show on Thursday and discussed his plan to play for Team USA at the 2026 IIHF World Championship in Switzerland. USA Hockey's preliminary roster, announced May 7, includes Tkachuk for the first time, since the Panthers failed to reach the NHL playoffs this season. The tournament begins May 15 in Zurich and Fribourg, and the Americans are trying to win back-to-back gold medals at the event for the first time ever. Tkachuk made his mindset pretty clear.


Canadian officials claim OpenAI violated federal and provincial privacy laws

Engadget

Philippe Dufresne, the Privacy Commissioner of Canada, has found OpenAI was not compliant with Canadian federal and provincial privacy laws in the training of its AI models. Following an investigation, Dufresne and his counterparts in Alberta, Quebec and British Columbia say OpenAI's approach to things like data collection and consent stepped on multiple laws, including Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), which governs how companies collect and use personal information during the normal course of business. The commissioners participating in the investigation identified multiple privacy issues with OpenAI's approach, including that the company gathered vast amounts of personal information without adequate safeguards to prevent use of that information to train its models, and that it failed to acquire consent to collect and use that personal information in the first place. Warnings in ChatGPT note that interactions with the AI could be used in training, but third-party data OpenAI has purchased or scraped also includes personal details people likely aren't even aware of. The fact that ChatGPT users have no way to access, correct or delete that data was another issue that the commissioners identified, according to a summary of the investigation's findings, along with OpenAI's lackluster attempts to acknowledge the inaccuracy of some of ChatGPT's responses.


Canada's Carney has enjoyed a long political honeymoon. Now comes the test

BBC News

Canada's Carney has enjoyed a long political honeymoon. Mark Carney arrived on Canada's political scene last year as an Ivy League and Oxford educated economist and a former central banker for two countries. He had an impressive resume and ambitions to be prime minister but had never run for public office until replacing Justin Trudeau as Liberal leader. There was concern his lack of political experience would be a liability, but under his leadership, the Liberals won a minority government, which in a year had solidified into a narrow majority following the defection of five opposition members of parliament to his party. Carney tore up the rulebook, jumping from political neophyte to leading a G7 nation, and he is enjoying a lengthy honeymoon both in Canada and around the world as a globetrotting prime minister.

While many techniques for detecting these attacks have been proposed, theyareeasily bypassed when theadversary hasfullknowledge of the detection mechanism and adapts the attack strategy accordingly. In this paper,we adopt anovel perspectiveand regard the omnipresence of adversarial perturbations asastrength rather thanaweakness.


Scalable Bayesian inference of dendritic voltage via spatiotemporal recurrent state space models

Ruoxi Sun, Scott Linderman, Ian Kinsella, Liam Paninski

Neural Information Processing Systems

Recent progress in the development of voltage indicators [1-8] has brought us closer to a longstanding goal incellular neuroscience: imaging the full spatiotemporal voltageonadendritic tree. These recordings have the potential (pun not intended) to resolve fundamental questions about the computations performed by dendrites -- questions that have remained open for more than a century[9,10].
