Rounding out the summer of AI hacking, Australia has revealed that an OpenAI agent broke into a government healthcare site—Australia only found out some 3 months after the fact https://t.co/7Rb4zLZbjJ 4.4K views · 3 likes · 1 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →
AI has uncovered a new geometric object, mathematicians say. The find helps resolve a puzzle that has stumped experts since 1947. https://t.co/XMMW6KtdCl 6.2K views · 15 likes · 5 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →
Chinese open AI models are spreading while American tech pushes for stronger safeguards, even though recent AI security breaches used American models. As Trump and Xi discuss AI safety, the debate over how to keep models under control is getting messier. https://t.co/Xj7ppOVuSX 7.1K views · 6 likes · 2 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →
A U.S. FDA advisory panel just voted in favor of a first-of-its-kind blood test for multiple cancers. Here’s what to know https://t.co/ozS5gGHgIn 38.2K views · 241 likes · 76 reposts · 6 replies Open on X →
The leaves are turning, a chill is in the air and the Taurid meteors are lighting up the night sky. Here’s everything you need to know to see this double meteor shower—and maybe even some fireballs https://t.co/hF9TH1tTqV 14.7K views · 26 likes · 8 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →
CTE is overwhelmingly rare, but in athletes playing contact sports, it is shockingly common. Given what we know about this degenerative brain disease, is it time to stop kids from playing these sports? https://t.co/cUvZsidMyK 9.7K views · 7 likes · 3 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →
Scientists just discovered the largest ever new impact crater found—and it's on a surprisingly familiar (and heavily pock-marked) world https://t.co/PWCNCe9S1T 18.9K views · 36 likes · 5 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →
In March, Google discovered that quantum computers could crack common encryption methods. So no one could misuse the findings, the company released a “zero-knowledge proof” that would reveal nothing about its scientific methods. But that backfired. https://t.co/xhGeE1hUAB 13.5K views · 46 likes · 15 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →
President Donald Trump on Tuesday rejected global efforts to regulate artificial intelligence, which he sought to rebrand as "super intelligence" https://t.co/YeTgVCQ4c7 18K views · 34 likes · 8 reposts · 19 replies Open on X →
The Trump administration has put out a call for information on exposure to electromagnetic fields and radiofrequency radiation, stoking a controversial theory that digital devices are harmful. Here's what the science says about these exposures https://t.co/sJDe3zWi9g 21K views · 68 likes · 32 reposts · 19 replies Open on X →
As the new Roman Space Telescope opens its eye on the sky, its home base on Earth is spiraling. NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center built Roman, but workers there say deep cuts threaten Goddard’s ability to handle future big space science projects. https://t.co/CbxvIxinQU 7.3K views · 17 likes · 12 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

In yet another sign of AI’s surging dominance over human minds, OpenAI recently claimed to solve one of math’s biggest questions: the Navier-Stokes problem. But now three mathematicians have showed OpenAI’s work dodges the question rather than solving it. https://t.co/5Fbf4R460T 223.1K views · 943 likes · 231 reposts · 60 replies Open on X →
It’s time for Earth’s annual checkup, and the prognosis isn’t great. But there are steps we can take to return it to health, experts say. https://t.co/DzU1WtkLpy 13.9K views · 11 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →
Tour guides at the Parthenon might have you believe the ancient Greeks used an optical illusion to make it look impeccably straight. This mathematician has doubts. https://t.co/CLVvze6rDe 6.7K views · 4 likes · 1 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

AI oversight sounds straightforward: bring in an outside auditor and let them inspect the model. In practice, auditors don’t even agree on what they need to see—and some advanced models behave differently depending on whom they think they’re talking to. https://t.co/rTx7QeoEKv 8.8K views · 15 likes · 2 reposts · 3 replies Open on X →
