Dark Matter May Be Made of Black Holes From Another Universe
A model of the cyclic universe suggests that dark matter could be a population of black holes predating the Big Bang.
Making AI safer for victims of intimate partner violence
Conversational AI tools denied blunt requests for harmful content by researchers posing as intimate partner abusers, but these guardrails were easily circumvented when they requested the content under false pretenses, a new Cornell Tech study has found.

This simple change stops robot swarms from getting stuck
In crowded environments, more robots don’t always mean faster results—in fact, too many can bring everything to a standstill. Harvard researchers discovered a surprising fix: adding a bit of randomness to how robots move can actually prevent gridlock and boost efficiency. By allowing robots to “wiggle” slightly instead of marching in straight lines, they can …

Kinematic intelligence lets three different robots learn the same task safely
In today’s manufacturing environments, upgrading a robot fleet often means starting from scratch—not only replacing hardware, but also reprogramming tasks. Even when two robots are built to perform similar jobs, different joint arrangements or movement limits mean that a task programmed for one robot often can’t be used on another. Enabling skills to transfer directly …

We may have a new SOTA open-source model: ERNIE-Image Comparisons
Base model is definitely SOTA, can even easily compete with closed-source ones in terms of aesthetic. Cinematic quality and color grading is next level. Base model is heavily biased on Asian faces, while it excels on anime/illustration style, while my base model anime/illustration experiments wasn’t that good. Higher CFG is slightly better with anime on …
