Spreading fake news is a growing concern due to the widespread use of social media. Classifying fake news is crucial to mitigate its harmful effects. To address this, a framework for fake news detection employs adversarial training to enhance the model's robustness.
Meta-formerly-Facebook is bleeding its top AI leaders. The company has lost at least three significant AI leaders in March alone: Devi Parikh, Meta's now-former senior director of generative AI; Abhishek Das, the now-former head of Meta's Fundamental AI Research (FAIR) team; and Erik Meijer, Meta's now-former director of engineering.
➕ Math
Contrary to what just about every mathematician on Earth will tell you, prime numbers can be predicted, according to researchers at City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK) and North Carolina State University, U.S.
⚛️ Physics and Chemistry
Research indicates that neutrons can form bonds with nanoscale atomic clusters called quantum dots. This discovery offers potential insights into material characteristics and the behavior of quantum phenomena.
🧬 Biology & Medicine
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved iloperidone tablets (Fanapt) for the acute treatment of manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar I disorder in adults.
The study revealed that individuals born in the 1970s possessed brains that were, on average, 6.6% larger than those born in the 1930s. This suggests a potential correlation between larger brain size and enhanced brain reserve, which could lower the susceptibility to age-related dementias.
🔭 Space & Astronomy
NASA chose Intuitive Machines, Lunar Outpost, and Venturi Astrolab to develop a lunar terrain vehicle (LTV) for Artemis astronauts. The LTV will enable scientific research on the lunar surface during the Artemis campaign and aid preparations for future Mars missions.
