Mustafa Suleyman grew up in subsidized housing in one of London's roughest areas. His father, a Syrian immigrant, drove a taxi. His mother was a nurse in the National Health Service. When the prestigious Queen Elizabeth's School accepted him at age 11, the family moved to a safer, leafier neighborhood a few miles north.There he met 20-year-old Demis Hassabis, after becoming friends with his younger brother. Demis was a chess prodigy and video game designer whose parents - one Greek Cypriot, the other Singaporean - ran a toy shop in London.Today they are two of the most powerful executives in the tech industry's race to build artificial intelligence. Dr Hassabis, 47, is the CEO of Google DeepMind, the tech giant's central research laboratory for artificial intelligence....

One December morning in central London, more than two dozen people from influential institutions in the Middle East, Europe and the United States gathered in a conference room to pursue an aspiration that, at the time, bordered on 'absurdity. They were there to plan the reconstruction and long-term economic development of Gaza.Gaza has been relentlessly bombed by Israeli military forces in response to terrorist attacks launched by Hamas in October. Communities across the territory were being reduced to rubble and tens of thousands of people had been killed. Families were confronted with the immediacy of hunger, fear and pain.Yet at the meeting in London, members of the international establishment discussed how to transform Gaza from a place characterized by isolation and poverty int...

I studyThe new study, conducted by researchers in Taiwan, compared data from two large data sets: the Taiwan National Student Fitness Tests, which measure students' fitness performance in schools, and the National Insurance Research Databases, which track insurance claims , diagnoses, prescriptions and other medical data. information. The researchers did not have access to the students' names but were able to use the anonymized data to compare results related to the students' physical fitness and mental health.The risk of mental health disorders was weighted against three measures of physical fitness: cardio fitness, measured by a student's time in an 800-meter run; muscular endurance, indicated by the number of sit-ups performed; and muscle power, measured by the stand...

Scotland's First Minister, Humza Yousaf, resigned on Monday in the latest setback for his Scottish National Party, which has been engulfed in a slow-burn crisis over a funding scandal that erupted after his Popular leader Nicola Sturgeon resigned last year.Yousaf's departure had looked increasingly inevitable after he gambled on a power-sharing deal with the Scottish Green Party last week, angering its leaders and leaving him at the head of a minority government with no obvious allies. His opponents then pushed for two motions of no confidence, which were due to be tabled by the end of the week.After exploring his options over several difficult days, Yousaf, who was Scotland's first Muslim leader, said he would resign in a speech on Monday at Bute House in Edinburgh, the offic...

Call it the end of the beginning of the AI ​​boom.Since mid-March, financial pressure on several AI startups has had a negative impact. Inflection AI, which raised $1.5 billion but earned next to nothing, has abandoned its original business. Stability AI has laid off employees and parted ways with its CEO. And Anthropic has raced to close the roughly $1.8 billion gap between its modest sales and huge expenses.The artificial intelligence revolution, it is becoming clear in Silicon Valley, will come at a very high price. And the tech companies that have bet their futures on it are scrambling to figure out how to close the gap between those expenses and the profits they hope to make in the future.This problem is particularly acute for a group of high-profile startups that have raised tens ...

World Central Kitchen said Sunday it will resume operations in Gaza with a local team of Palestinian aid workers, nearly a month after the Israeli army killed seven of the organization's workers in targeted drone strikes on their convoy.Israeli military officials said the attack was a "serious mistake" and cited a series of failures, including communication breakdowns and violations of military operating procedures.The Washington-based aid group said it was still calling for an independent international investigation into the April 1 attack and that it had received "no concrete assurance" that the Israeli military's operating procedures had changed. But the “humanitarian situation in Gaza remains dire,” the humanitarian group's director of operations, Erin Gore, said in a stat...

For decades, the idea of ​​standing upright has carried with it considerable political and social baggage. Sagging was considered a sign of decay.In the early 20th century, posture exams became essential in the military, workplace, and schools, thanks in part to the American Posture League, a group of physicians, educators, and health officials formed in 1914. In 1917, one study found that approximately 80% of Harvard freshmen had poor posture. Industrialists have continued to accumulate posture-improving chairs, products and gadgets.But current science doesn't support conventional wisdom about correct posture, argues Beth Linker in her new book, "Slouch: Posture Panic in Modern America." Dr. Linker, a historian and sociologist of science at the University of Pennsylvania, recently ...

The Ukrainian marine infantryman endured nine months of physical and psychological torture as a Russian prisoner of war, but was given only three months of rest and rehabilitation before being sent back to his unit.The infantryman, who asked to be identified only by his call sign, Smiley, willingly returned to duty. But it was only when he underwent intense combat training in the following weeks that the depth and extent of his wounds, both psychological and physical, began to emerge.“I started having flashbacks and nightmares,” he said. "I only slept two hours and woke up with my sleeping bag soaking wet." He was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder and referred for psychological treatment, and he is still receiving treatment.Ukraine is just beginning to understand the las...

A Moses Lake, Wash., factory that closed its doors in 2019 will soon resume shipping a key ingredient used in most solar panels and that for years was produced almost exclusively in China.The revival of the factory, owned by REC Silicon, could help achieve a long-standing goal of many American lawmakers and energy executives to re-establish a complete domestic supply chain for solar panels and reduce the world's reliance on plants in China and Southeast Asia. .REC Silicon reopened the factory that produces polysilicon, the building block of most solar panels, in November in partnership with Hanwha Qcells, a South Korean company that is investing billions of dollars in solar panel production in the United States. As part of the deal, Hanwha said this month it became the largest shareh...
