Accolades continue to come in for Google's Gemini 3 LLM. The CEO of Salesforce, Marc Benioff, says Both Musk and Altman sent congratulations to Google. However, AI tech Bloggers, while noting that Gemini is a vast improvement over other LLMs, hold their judgment until the full effect on end...

Perhaps I would, but a great mathematician (Hardy) would not, and did not.

In post #29, I noted that AI is better than humans in identifying emotions. Google just released Gemini 3, which has been noted to be significantly better than ChatGPT-5 releasted just this past August. In a study to see how it compares to current models concerning self-harm and...

While helping people online with homework like PF is valuable, it is cumbersome. The people must present their whole spiel, misunderstanding and all, in one fell swoop. In reading the post, the advisor might have liked to halt it at the point where the person was beginning to go astray and...

A recent study found that AI models can detect human emotional states under different circumstances. On average, all models performed about 50% better than humans. It was also determined that most responses were not merely taken from the web but appeared to be original. Since...

A book that I found absorbing and informative is Eric Temple Bell's book "Mathematic: Queen and Servant of Science" 1951 and republished in 1986, covering pure and applied math, their interconnection, with discussion on algebra, number theory, logic, probability, infinite sets, the foundations...

So these analgesic patches like SOLANPAS actually work. Thinking about it, the patches introduce the medicine at the site of the pain instead of having it circulate throughout the body where it is not needed..

Not much was know about radiation effects at the turn of the century. They knew excess exposure caused severe tissue injury early on. Based on that radiation in particular from Radium was used to treat and cure cancers. But it was an impirical science. Ion chamber were used to measure...

As noted above the conventional method for the determination of statistical uncertainty for a function is $$\Delta f = \sqrt{ \sum_{i=1}^{n} \left ( \frac{\partial f}{\partial x_{i}} \right )^{2}\left (\Delta \right )^{2} }$$ Where the deltas usually represent the uncertainty (or error) in...

Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah was largely ignored until Jeff Buckley's rendition was largely ignored until his untimely death.. Cohen took five years to write the lyrics. Buckley's version is not Cohen's but John Cale's a musician and producer who was given all of Cohen's attempts to his final...

Can the use of AI by students be valuable? OpenAI thinks so. It has introduced a new mode for CHATGPT called "Study Mode". Instead of doing work for students, it engages students in active learning when they request an explanation of a topic...

I posted a remark on a MIT study of the effects of the use of AI on students in the thread; Is AI hype?

Less than 50%. A toss of a fair coin has a 50% chance of a heads or a tails coming up.

I am surprised no one has taken notice of Tim Henson, lead guitarist of the progressive band Polyphia. Polyphia "Ego Death" Polyphia "G.O.A.T."
