Does this mean that PC prices will drop, either for the back to school season or for the Christmas season????
That would be welcome for all those parents whose children need a new Windows 11 computer for school-ordered website access to do their homework. (Locally, I heard that one of the local high schools requires access to a website that has downloads that only work right on Windows 11 machines. Might just be standard parent griping, but, knowing this local school district, may be tied to a cost-cutting move: something like - yes, there is a Win10 version but the school district would have to pay extra to access it)

Currently, ultrasound imaging requires bulky and specialized equipment available only in hospitals and doctor's offices. But a new design by MIT engineers might make the technology as wearable and accessible as buying Band-Aids at the pharmacy. I'm stuck on scanning, because the scanners stuck on me

C'mon, that way is not nearly high tech enough (nor could anyone sell that information).

I am not so sure about the selling of that info. Zuckerburg is probably working on a way to do it.

It was difficult for people to guess whether philosophical responses came from the philosopher Daniel Dennett or the language generator GPT-3. It just sat around doing nothing?
I know, I know - thinking "big thoughts"

I note that the AI was "trained on millions of words of Dennett’s about a variety of philosophical topics, including consciousness and artificial intelligence."
IOW, garbage in, garbage out.

But the AI managed to create long non-intellegible sentences which are not formally wrong, cause the mind to bend and finally give up trying to understand them...

Human beings are inherently social creatures, having existed in close-knit hunter-gatherer groups for most of our 200,000-year history. If only there were some sort of place people could gather during working hours

In a related study about work from home vs. work in the office, researchers discovered that it's the 20 somethings who want to work in the office. As we get older the need for physical social interaction decreases, so I suspect these two findings are related to each other.

Apple may have already ripped the band-aid off its third-party cookie tracking situation with its iOS 14 updated on mobile devices a year ago, but it seems Google is still easing itself into position with yet another two-year window added to its proposed removal timeframe. Apparently, that's not the way the cookie crumbles
