Salman Rushdie's Literary Inspirations

The New Yorker

The author of "The Eleventh Hour" looks back on a few works--by Mikhail Bulgakov, Franz Kafka, Voltaire, and E. M. Forster--that have helped him craft his own. Salman Rushdie prefers not to immerse himself in other people's writing when he is working on his own. "When I'm writing fiction, I tend not to read fiction. I actually don't want other people's voices to sneak into my head," Rushdie said recently. That's not to say that other writers' books aren't an important part of his process--posing questions, providing instruction, and offering models of characters.


New frontier of AI-powered 'teacher-less' charter schools get mixed reviews from state officials

FOX News

Yurts founder and CEO Ben Van Roo breaks down concerns over DeepSeek on'The Will Cain Show.' Artificial intelligence may be the new frontier for childhood schooling, but the idea of teacherless classrooms has received mixed reviews from state education officials. Unbound Academy, a Texas-based institution billing itself as the nation's first virtual, tuition-free charter school for grades 4 through 8, reportedly employs AI to teach students in a way that can be geared toward the individual student without "frustration[s]" sometimes present in traditional schooling. While such schools have seen success in being approved to educate students in Arizona, Unbound was formally rejected by the Pennsylvania Department of Education in a letter obtained by Fox News Digital. In a letter to an Unbound Academy official with a Lancaster office address, Secretary Angela Fitterer said her office has found "deficiencies" in all five criteria needed for approval to teach Keystone State students. Pennsylvania's Charter School law denotes a school must demonstrate sustainable support for the cyber charter school plan from teachers, parents and students.


idMotif: An Interactive Motif Identification in Protein Sequences

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

This article introduces idMotif, a visual analytics framework designed to aid domain experts in the identification of motifs within protein sequences. Motifs, short sequences of amino acids, are critical for understanding the distinct functions of proteins. Identifying these motifs is pivotal for predicting diseases or infections. idMotif employs a deep learning-based method for the categorization of protein sequences, enabling the discovery of potential motif candidates within protein groups through local explanations of deep learning model decisions. It offers multiple interactive views for the analysis of protein clusters or groups and their sequences. A case study, complemented by expert feedback, illustrates idMotif's utility in facilitating the analysis and identification of protein sequences and motifs.


Boy 'prodigy,' 13, is the first known person to beat iconic 1988 Tetris video game for Nintendo - and he did it in 38 minutes

Daily Mail - Science & tech

A 13-year-old boy is being hailed a'prodigy' after becoming the first known person to beat the iconic 1988 Tetris video game for original Nintendo. Willis Gibson, of Oklahoma, was live streaming while playing last month when he achieved a'True Killerscreen' in 38 minutes, which saw the blocks fall at a face pace that forced the game to crash - this has only ever been done by AI. Gamers have long believed level 30 was the screen killer after Thor Aackerlund performed a'hypertapping' method in 2010, which saw him vibrating his fingers on the controller to move faster in the game. However, Gibson, whose gaming name is'Blue Scuti,' broke the record, reaching level 157 and watched the game implode on screen. Willis Gibson, of Oklahoma, was live streaming while playing last month when he achieved a'True Killerscreen' in 38 minutes, which saw the blocks fall at a face pace that forced the game to crash - this has only ever been done by AI Gibson has been playing Tetris since he was 11, practicing three to five hours daily.


Google Cloud's New TPU v4 ML Hub Packs 9 Exaflops of AI

#artificialintelligence

Almost exactly a year ago, Google launched its Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) v4 chips at Google I/O 2021, promising twice the performance compared to the TPU v3. At the time, Google CEO Sundar Pichai said that Google's datacenters would "soon have dozens of TPU v4 Pods, many of which will be operating at or near 90 percent carbon-free energy." Now, at Google I/O 2022, Pichai revealed the blue-ribbon fruit of those labors: a TPU v4-powered datacenter in Mayes County, Oklahoma, that Google says is the world's largest publicly available machine learning hub. "This machine learning hub has eight Cloud TPU v4 Pods, custom-built on the same networking infrastructure that powers Google's largest neural models," Pichai said. Google's TPU v4 Pods consist of 4,096 TPU v4 chips, each of which delivers 275 teraflops of ML-targeted bfloat16 ("brain floating point") performance.


Machine learning model generates realistic seismic waveforms

#artificialintelligence

LOS ALAMOS, N.M., April 22, 2021--A new machine-learning model that generates realistic seismic waveforms will reduce manual labor and improve earthquake detection, according to a study published recently in JGR Solid Earth. "To verify the efficacy of our generative model, we applied it to seismic field data collected in Oklahoma," said Youzuo Lin, a computational scientist in Los Alamos National Laboratory's Geophysics group and principal investigator of the project. "Through a sequence of qualitative and quantitative tests and benchmarks, we saw that our model can generate high-quality synthetic waveforms and improve machine learning-based earthquake detection algorithms." Quickly and accurately detecting earthquakes can be a challenging task. Visual detection done by people has long been considered the gold standard, but requires intensive manual labor that scales poorly to large data sets.
