Gravitational waves are ripples in the fabric of space and time, usually created when massive, dense objects like black holes collide. But at less than a tenth of a second long, this sudden burst was far shorter than the drawn-out chirps normally produced by merging black holes. Now, researchers think this strange signal, dubbed GW190521, could have arrived from a parallel universe.

Google says it accessed parallel universes with its new supercomputer
Google's quantum computing breakthrough on Monday has left the physicist who heads the project a believer in'the idea that we live in a multiverse.' 'Willow,' the tech giant's new quantum chip, succeeded in solving a computational problem so complex it would have taken today's best super-computers an estimated 10 septillion years to solve it -- vastly more than the age of our entire universe. But Google said its new quantum computer solved the puzzle'in under five minutes.' Calling Willow's performance'astonishing,' the leader and founder of Google Quantum AI team, physicist Hartmut Neven, said its high-speed result'lends credence to the notion that quantum computation occurs in many parallel universes.' Neven credited Oxford University physicist David Deutsch for proposing the theory that the successful development of quantum computing would, in effect, affirm the'many worlds interpretation' of quantum mechanics and the existence of a multiverse. Starting in the 1970s, Deutsch, in fact, had walked backwards into becoming a pioneer in the field of quantum computing, less out of interest in the technology itself, than his desire to test the multiverse theory.

HoLLMwood: Unleashing the Creativity of Large Language Models in Screenwriting via Role Playing

Generative AI has demonstrated unprecedented creativity in the field of computer vision, yet such phenomena have not been observed in natural language processing. In particular, large language models (LLMs) can hardly produce written works at the level of human experts due to the extremely high complexity of literature writing. In this paper, we present HoLLMwood, an automated framework for unleashing the creativity of LLMs and exploring their potential in screenwriting, which is a highly demanding task. Mimicking the human creative process, we assign LLMs to different roles involved in the real-world scenario. In addition to the common practice of treating LLMs as ${Writer}$, we also apply LLMs as ${Editor}$, who is responsible for providing feedback and revision advice to ${Writer}$. Besides, to enrich the characters and deepen the plots, we introduce a role-playing mechanism and adopt LLMs as ${Actors}$ that can communicate and interact with each other. Evaluations on automatically generated screenplays show that HoLLMwood substantially outperforms strong baselines in terms of coherence, relevance, interestingness and overall quality.

We don't know what is reality, being, the universe and how the world works. We don't know what relationships are and how correlations and associations, causation and interaction are interrelated. It's the ultimate human quest – to understand everything that there is and how it is reflected by intelligence, human or machine, as the sensemaking and determination of reality. We humans have an existential problem with reality. We experience it all the time, but struggle to define it, let alone understand it.
The metaverse is dystopian – but to big tech it's a business opportunity
Once upon a time, a very long time ago – until Thursday 28 October 2021, to be precise – the term "metaverse" was known only to lexicographers and science fiction enthusiasts. And then, suddenly, it was everywhere. Simply this: Mark Zuckerberg, the supreme leader of Facebook, pissed off by seeing nothing but bad news about his company in the media, announced that he was changing its name to Meta and would henceforth be devoting all his efforts – plus $10bn (£7bn) and thousands of engineers – to building a parallel universe called the metaverse. And then, because the tech industry and the media that chronicle its doings are basically herds of mimetic sheep, the metaverse was suddenly the newest new thing. This was news to Neal Stephenson, the writer who actually invented the term in his 1992 novel, Snow Crash.

Can Artificial Intelligence Help Scientists Discover the Multiverse?
The multiverse was coined by American philosopher William James in 1895. Artificial intelligence (AI) supports the idea of parallel universes beyond our own. However, more research is needed in order to discover the hidden secrets of the multiverse and know more about the origin of our species. The multiverse is a theory in which our universe is not the only one, but states that many universes exist parallel to each other. These distinct universes within the multiverse theory are called parallel universes.
Programming In The Parallel Universe
This week is the eighth annual International Workshop on OpenCL, SYCL, Vulkan, and SPIR-V, and the event is available online for the very first time in its history thanks to the coronavirus pandemic. One of the event organizers, and the conference chair, is Simon McIntosh-Smith, who is a professor of high performance computing at Bristol University in Great Britain and also the head of its Microelectronics Group. Among other things, McIntosh-Smith was a microprocessor architect at STMicroeletronics, where he designed SIMD units for the dual-core, superscalar Chameleon and SH5 set-top box ASICs back in the late 1990s. McIntosh-Smith moved to Pixelfusion in 1999, which created the first general purpose GPU – arguably eight or nine years before Nvidia did it with its Tesla GPUs, where he was an architect on the 1,536-core chip and software manager for two years. In 2002, McIntosh-Smith was one of the co-founders of ClearSpeed, which created floating point math accelerators used in HPC systems before GPU accelerators came along, and was first director of architecture and applications and then vice president of applications.

Quantum Machine Learning: Future of AI
What comes to mind when you hear the words Artificial Intelligence (AI)? Not too long ago, this phrase was reserved for talking about an imagined distant future where humans had robot servants and self-driving cars. This is the world we live in today. We have personal assistants like Siri to answer any of our questions, Tesla's that can get us from point A to B while we sleep, and endless filters on Snapchat that can transform our appearance instantly. The age of AI is here.
US cop body cam maker says it won't ship face-recog tech in its kit? Due to ethics? Did we slip into a parallel universe?
Axon, the largest supplier of body cameras to America's cops, will not add facial-recognition technology to its gear anytime soon, it announced Thursday. Formerly known as Taser, Axon had asked its AI and Policing Technology Ethics Board – made up of engineers, social scientists, and lawyers – to mull over the impact of building face-scanning machine-learning systems into its products. After a year of consideration, the board recommended Axon avoid the tech. And so, astonishingly, it has. "Face recognition technology is not currently reliable enough to ethically justify its use on bodyworn cameras," the panel of eggheads concluded in a report out this week.
