Watch: Moment rescuers find five people trapped in Laos cave

BBC News

Rescuers in Laos have found five villagers alive inside a flooded cave after they were trapped for a week following heavy rain and landslides. Two people are still missing, rescue teams said. Footage shared by the rescuers showed cave divers crawling through narrow, muddy passageways. The seven people were part of a group of villagers who had gone into the cave in search of gold deposits and wildlife, but could not get out as the cave's entrance was blocked. Could a football match soften North Korea-South Korea relations?


Rumors spread like viruses. The French Revolution proved it.

Popular Science

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. It's hard to contain misinformation once enough people believe it. A conspiracy theory spreads exponentially regardless of its accuracy, making it that much more likely to translate into real violence. According to a study published August 27 in the journal Nature, these situations can (and should) be geographically mapped with the same models that epidemiologists use to track diseases. And as an example, researchers turned to one of history's most famous moments of misinformation. The Great Fear of 1789 was a major chapter in the French Revolution and a defining moment in modern history.


AI APOCALYPSE: TRUTH OR CONSPIRACY

#artificialintelligence

"Robots will not take over the world," said the world's most realistic humanoid robot, Ameca. But is this going to be the actual reality? The question most people ask is whether AI is becoming conscious or whether it is going to be rogue and wipe out human civilization. These thoughts have been greatly influenced by the predictive programming in our media, mostly in movies and comics. Should we be worried about an army of killer robots patrolling the streets with heat sensors and giant lasers to find and exterminate humans?


Middle East round-up: talks, then a 'pogrom' in Palestine

Al Jazeera

Israeli settlers rampage through Palestinian villages, Syria's president is getting friendly with several Arab states, and attacks against African migrants in Tunisia. Here's your round up of our coverage, written by Abubakr Al-Shamahi, Al Jazeera Digital's Middle East and North Africa editor. With the backing of the United States, Israeli and Palestinian officials met at a Jordanian resort on Sunday in an attempt to reach a deal to end more than a year of intense violence. By the end of it, the two sides said they had agreed to work closely together, to bring about a "de-escalation on the ground". And, according to a joint statement, Israel even said it would suspend the building of any new settlement units in the occupied West Bank.


Self-supervised Graph Masking Pre-training for Graph-to-Text Generation

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Large-scale pre-trained language models (PLMs) have advanced Graph-to-Text (G2T) generation by processing the linearised version of a graph. However, the linearisation is known to ignore the structural information. Additionally, PLMs are typically pre-trained on free text which introduces domain mismatch between pre-training and downstream G2T generation tasks. To address these shortcomings, we propose graph masking pre-training strategies that neither require supervision signals nor adjust the architecture of the underlying pre-trained encoder-decoder model. When used with a pre-trained T5, our approach achieves new state-of-the-art results on WebNLG+2020 and EventNarrative G2T generation datasets. Our method also shows to be very effective in the low-resource setting.


6 Trends in Process Automation Changing How Cars are Made

#artificialintelligence

Process automation has had a significant impact on how cars are made. Moreover, with EVs and self-driving vehicles, you can expect new applications for process automation. Additionally, the intricacies of modern EVs require new automated tech that needs to evolve. As a result, manufacturing and automation are constantly changing. You have undoubtedly heard of 3D printing technology.


How Citizens Experience COVID19 And Why We Need Global Solidarity

#artificialintelligence

I am worried if killing the economies is worth it if we so laxly approach the support for the most affected populations? The economical lockdown around the world has resulted in an increase in violence, a lack of food supply, overloaded healthcare systems, and global panic response that will trigger mental health consequences long after the pandemic is over. Experts agree that government policies need to balance overcoming both the health and economic crisis. In the short run, economic policies should mitigate the impact of lockdowns and ensure that the current crisis does not trigger financial, debt or currency crises. It should facilitate a quick recovery once the economy is taken out of the deep freeze.


Killer robots declared 'existential human threat' by expert who fears fatal AI uprising

#artificialintelligence

Dr Ian Pearson, an ex-cybernetics engineer, says our species risks a future "robot uprising". The futurologist said manufacturers who do not follow guidelines risk leaving robots to turn against us. He told Daily Star Online: "Military robots obviously would be able to kill people, but only a few. "To be an existential threat, there would need to be many millions of them that have become a threat without anyone noticing, and that seems unlikely. "Although again, it assumes a modicum of intelligence in regulation. "Robots plus online AI is a different threat.
