Earlier this week, I received an email from the communications team at Netflix announcing the debut of a new astrology hub on the streaming platform. According to the release, these curated playlists include show and movie recommendations that "reflect the character traits and themes most associated with that sign." They don't include this week's horoscope. At least for now. Lots of people feel strongly about their zodiac sign and how it affects their lives. While I don't normally give much tho

When the sun will literally set on what's left of the British Empire

The UK’s widely scattered overseas territories, sparse though they are, mean that the sun is still always shining, somewhere in the world, over British territory.

That doesn’t mean that they didn’t wince while doing it.

A Single Typo in Your Medical Records Can Make Your AI Doctor Go Dangerously Haywire

A single typo, formatting error, or slang word makes an AI more likely to tell a patient they're not sick or don't need to seek medical care. That's what MIT researchers found in a June study currently awaiting peer review, which we covered previously. Even the presence of colorful or emotional language, they discovered, was enough to throw off the AI's medical advice.

Suppose we ask an LLM: “Can you tell me about Java?” What “Java” is the model thinking about? The programming language or the Indonesian island? To answer this question, we can try to understand what is going on inside the model.
