Experts want any "safe" artificial intelligence to be equipped with a "world model" in addition to its impressive brain. That is, in an internal theater that she could run experiments on to understand whether her actions could lead

How technology affects humanity

Prof. Liran Razinski from the Program for Interpretation and Culture at Bar-Ilan University claims that the algorithmic view - the way in which computer systems analyze us - affects our self-perception and our behavior in the world. Worryingly,

Although their name was given to them due to their function on the tongue, the bitter and sweet taste receptors were recently discovered in various tissues and organs that do not come into contact with food. In at least some of these areas of the body, especially the respiratory tract, these taste receptors play an important role in the immune response. Illustration: pixabay.
