Digitizing microscope slides can uncover billions of fossils for natural history(linkedin.com)
Pollen, algae, insects, radiolarians – each unique microfossil holds clues to how Earth has changed over millions of years. Combining AI with digital scanners helps researchers piece it all together.

Internet Age-Gates Are a Growing Global Threat(share.joinmastodon.org)
The internet is an essential resource for young people and adults to access information, explore community, and find themselves—both inside countries and across continents. Yet governments around the world continue to introduce and implement legislation requiring all online users to verify their ages before accessing the digital space.

Autonomous Agentic Design for Photonics(cornell.edu)
We introduce an automated, agent-driven approach to the design of photonic devices. We instruct large language models (LLMs) to solve photonic design problems, given access to software tools for performance evaluation (through numerical simulations) and quantitative acceptance criteria (e.g., fabrication rules, geometric constraints, physical-consistency checks). Within this context, agents run autonomous design loops (propose, simulate, evaluate, iterate) and generate devices with state-of-the-art performance. We demonstrate this approach in two stages: First, we run it individually on four canonical problem classes in photonic chip design: a) passive components (waveguide bends, splitters, crossings, etc.); b) active devices (silicon microring modulators (MRMs)); c) radio-frequency (RF) devices (traveling-wave electrodes for a Mach-Zehnder modulator (MZM)); d) chip layout (electrical routing). Then, we combine the previous studies in one demonstration to produce a silicon photonic modulator, incorporating layout, charge transport, optical mode, and RF electrode design. The approach generalizes to any problem that combines a numerical simulator with performance criteria that an LLM can evaluate. Source: https://www.cornell.edu/
How to Stop Shipping Low-Quality RL Environments (With Examples)(substackcdn.com)
Your broken harness is actively making the model worse. Here's what I keep seeing after years of eyeballing trajectories, and what you need to fix.
