arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-09-28 22:01:27

On Friday, CBC News reported that a major education reform document prepared for the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador contains at least 15 fabricated citations that academics suspect were generated by an AI language model—despite the same report calling for "ethical" AI use in schools. "A Vision for the Future: Transforming and Modernizing Education," released August 28, serves as a 10-year roadmap for modernizing the province's public schools and post-secondary institutions. The

Medieval fable attributed to Aesop Gustave Doré's illustration of La Fontaine's fable, c. 1868 Belling the Cat is a fable also known under the titles The Bell and the Cat and The Mice in Council. In the story, a group of mice agree to attach a bell to a cat's neck to warn of its approach in the future, but they fail to find a volunteer to perform the job. The term has become an idiom describing a group of persons, each agreeing to perform an impossibly difficult task under the misapprehension

Why is an Amazon-backed AI startup making Orson Welles fan fiction?

techcrunch.com Anthony Ha 2025-10-08 23:30:22

On Friday, a startup called Fable announced an ambitious, if head-scratching, plan to recreate the lost 43 minutes of Orson Welles’ classic film “The Magnificent Ambersons.” Why is a startup that bills itself as the “Netflix of AI,” and that recently raised money from Amazon’s Alexa Fund, talking about remaking a movie that was first released in 1942? Well, the company has built a platform that allows users to create their own cartoons with AI prompts — Fable is starting out with its own intel

Intel is in talks with other large investors to receive an equity infusion at a discounted price, people familiar with the matter told CNBC's David Faber. Intel stock slid more than 7% on Tuesday, after rallying earlier this week on a $2 billion capital injection from SoftBank and reports that the Trump administration is weighing different ways to get involved with the company. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told CNBC on Tuesday that the U.S. government must receive an equity stake in Intel

How to make almost anything (2019)

My name is D. Sculley. I lead several teams at Google in Cambridge doing research in various aspects of machine learning. I'm involved in this course because many of our current projects involve the use of machine learning for design or fabrication problems of one form or another, including in the biology space and the chemistry space. I'm interested in learning more about other forms of fabrication and seeing if there are interesting cross-domain opportunities to think about. Here is my Google

Amazon Throws Money at ‘Netflix of AI’

gizmodo.com Aj Dellinger 2025-12-15 17:59:49

Amazon poured more than $1 billion into its streaming series The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, only for it to get a pretty tepid reception. So Amazon appears to be going for a new approach to streaming content: If you think you can do better, prove it. According to a report from Business Insider, the company is funding an AI streaming platform called Showrunner that, in theory, will let people create their own shows using generative AI tools. Showrunner is the creation of Fable Studio,

Nemo Dagger Osmo Tent Review (2025): 2-Person Backcountry Palace

wired.com Scott Gilbertson 2025-12-23 12:32:00

Nemo’s Osmo tents have long been WIRED favorites. The proprietary, hybrid Osmo fabric is a blend of nylon and polyester, with dual coatings (silicone on the outside, poly on the inside) that offer the weatherproofing of polyester with much of the durability of nylon. The Osmo Dagger we reviewed several years ago is still going strong. Earlier this year Nemo revamped the entire Dagger Osmo tent to be fully Bluesign compliant (previously just the fabric was). It now offers slightly more headroom,

If you went back in time 150 years and told people that in the future they will carry everything they need to live for a week on their backs, you'd get run out of town. Carrying gear is the job of horses and mules, not people! Fast forward to the present, though, and here we are, schlepping into the backcountry with the essentials on our back. Progress!

Andy Walker / Android Authority I’ve only bought a handful of items under $10 that have genuinely changed my life — an incredible Basque cheesecake I snuffed down a few months ago comes to mind — but few are tech-related. I’ve written about the cheap Android Auto dongle that has made my car so much smarter, but it was pushing $25.

Aesop in Words of One Syllable

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-02-13 14:41:15

In the 19th Century, British and American children’s literature evolved from puritanical moral and religious instruction to delightfully imaginative tales meant to awaken a sense of wonder. But morality and imagination could certainly thrive together. Æsop’s Fables in Words of One Syllable is an excellent example of this. The ancient Greek storyteller Aesop may or may not have existed, and he may or may not have written the hundreds of morality tales attributed to him. Yet his stories have been

Building semiconductor plants in the US takes twice as long, costs twice as much as in Taiwan

The big picture: The U.S. and many Western markets are simply not as efficient as Taiwan in building semiconductor fabrication (fab) operations. According to reports, 18 new fab construction projects are planned for 2025 alone, making it crucial to address these challenges. The West must streamline fab construction processes to catch up with the well-established semiconductor ecosystems of Taiwan and other Asian manufacturing hubs.
