This is not an ad BTW, I literally stumbled upon it a few minutes ago. From what I can gather, however, this is a [DIY-ish] search engine that solely searches on text (no other forms of media, such as, ... idk hypertext maybe), which allows users to have more control over queries (like including and excluding terms). I suppose this would prune out most of the modern websites, but I guess some of y'all would prefer that option anyway. Has anyone else tried it out? I'm genuinely curious about more opinions on this

Oryon (pronounced like “Orion,” the star system) in its initial offering is a 12-core Arm CPU core, custom-designed by Qualcomm, built on 64-bit architecture and 4nm process technology. It’s the successor to the Kryo used in Snapdragon 8cx Gen 3 (5nm process) and earlier 8cx efforts.

The overall boost clock on these 12 cores is 3.8GHz, with the ability (a bit like Intel chips with their various Turbo Boost and Turbo Boost Max technologies) to boost just one or two cores to 4.3GHz. According to Qualcomm, this limited acceleration should manifest in faster application launch times, better web browsing responsiveness, and snappier UI. The company also points out that, when in boost mode, these cores are the world’s first 4GHz-capable Arm cores.

The Snapdragon summit 2023 keynote starts in 5 minutes. They'll show off their new ARM CPU for windows PCs, hopefully it's good.

The tool, called Nightshade, messes up training data in ways that could cause serious damage to image-generating AI models. Is intended as a way to fight back against AI companies that use artists’ work to train their models without the creator’s permission.

The researchers tested the attack on Stable Diffusion’s latest models and on an AI model they trained themselves from scratch. When they fed Stable Diffusion just 50 poisoned images of dogs and then prompted it to create images of dogs itself, the output started looking weird—creatures with too many limbs and cartoonish faces. With 300 poisoned samples, an attacker can manipulate Stable Diffusion to generate images of dogs to look like cats.

Open Empathic aims to equip open-source AI systems with empathy and emotional intelligence. We hope that methods and tools developed within the framework of this project, together with a community of researchers and technology enthusiasts, will revolutionize the way AI interacts with and supports humans in various domains.
