Questions about originality of Anthropic’s “discovery” 🧪 “Mario Rodríguez Mestre, a computational biologist, said this weekend that he and his colleagues had been studying the enzymes and their associated molecules — which Anthropic calls ARTs — for four years.” 1/2 www.nytimes.com/2026/09/27/s...

Did Anthropic’s A.I. Really Make a Scientific Discovery on Its Own? (Gift Article)
An expert at the University of Copenhagen said his team had been sharing its research with the company’s A.I. model, Claude, and that its new finding matched their work.

An individual in Canada used ChatGPT for eight months to plan one of the country’s worst mass shootings. Yet, if you listen to politicians and media, the real threat of AI is a fantastical scenario where it might wipe out humans in ten years. They need to stop getting fooled by tech deceivers.

Generative AI is harming people today. We don’t need to waste time fantasizing about science fictional scenarios.

In progress: "Maple", oil on canvas, 12x16". Little by little more leaves are leafing. #wip #art #landscape #canadianart #painting
A painting of a view of the maple tree in my backyard, with red brick houses behind. The house on the left is obscured by branches & leaves, and in the bottom left corner vines cover the fence. The fence continues along the bottom edge to the right corner. Behind the fence is a taupe coloured vinyl sided shed in my neighbour's yard. A dark tarp hangs under the shed's eaves, blowing slightly in the breeze.

ICYMI: Foreigners call Japan's konbini the best convenience stores in the world. Japanese reviewers rarely give them more than 3 stars. We pulled Google Maps ratings for 335 stores to find out why, and discovered which chain actually comes out on top.

The World Gives Japan's Konbini Five Stars. Why Japan Only Gives Them Three
The way Japanese people evaluate stores is part of the explanation, but there's a reason konbini remain especially low-rated.

Easy drive: Get on Trump Highway at America, take it past Lake America, then get off at the Trump Highway exit, go past Trump, all the way past Lake America, make a right on Trump, then a left on Trump, and take that to America. If you cross America River on the Trump Bridge, you've gone too far.

This big drop-off in skills once the AI bots are removed is one of the few things research can tell us about students' use of AI. There's good evidence that this stuff could hurt kids and no evidence that justifies the rush to douse them in it.

Here’s what we know about AI and education. It’s not good.
Yet we know the proven interventions that do work will remain sorely underfunded.

JFC. She’s lifting this slop directly from AI… on a book she’s never read.
Core Themes of the Novella

• Loneliness: Most characters inhabit an isolated world, craving a deep sense of belonging that their itinerant lifestyle denies them.

• Friendship: The rare, loyal bond between George and Lennie stands in stark contrast to an unforgiving, dog-eat-dog environment.

• Fragile Dreams: The shared vision of owning a small piece of land acts as a psychological lifeline that ultimately shatters against harsh reality.


Why the Story Lingers

• Economy of Words: Steinbeck strips his prose down to bare essentials, making the emotional impact hit with staggering force.

• Moral Responsibility: The narrative forces uncomfortable questions about how society treats the vulnerable and what we owe to one another.
