Weekly Science And Technology Reports - December 24, 2023 🎅

Welcome back guys, we finally meet again and this time around a day before........you know what it is. Hope we are all feeling painfully Christmatish - 👀 looks like I may have just invented another word. 🙃

But it's not me though, it's Santa's idea. Isn't that right Santa ?

Santa Claus: 🎅👍

Santa still typing.......

Looks like Santa isn't done yet, what could he possibly be cooking ? 🤔

Santa Claus: 😘

Wow 🙀, he just f*cking gave us a free Christmas present, a Christmas kiss.

💃🕺🕺💃🥳

Best f*cking time to be alive, even if some of us feel this is one of the worst Christmas to have ever happened. 😂😂

Thanks for your valuable input Santa.

Santa Claus: 🎅✌️

Alright guys, Christmas joke is over, it's time to get a little Christmas serious.

Could there be a black hole inside the sun?

Black holes are very fascinating objects, in fact, ever since it's prediction it has been fascinating. Although they have been observed, not much is really known about them (physically), there seems to be more theoretical facts than experimental ones. Apparently, the most destructive physical object in our universe appears to be black holes - they can consume virtually all kinds of ordinary matter, including stars. However, there seems to be a possibility that stars too can consume a black hole but a certain kind and this is not without consequences. Wait a minute, does our sun actually contain a black hole and how safe are we ? 😱

Interested in finding out ?
If yes, then keep reading to find out and more but if no, then I still think you keep reading - you never know if your click would help someone celebrate Christmas. 😂

Chimps and bonobos can recognize long-lost friends and family for decades, find researchers

When you look at animals, what do you see ?
Personally, I see animals, I mean isn't that why they are called animals - they do animal things. 🤭

But thanks to Darwin, we now know we are also animals but the higher kind. In fact, virtually all living things are related (by cells) but of varying degrees. The closest relative to us are those except us that belongs to the family of the great apes and this report just further illuminates it......keep reading to find out more. Those of us that thinks God created us in his own image and likeness, I'd like to ask, is he some kind of a godly ape?
Asking for a friend. 🤭

GPT-4 driven robot takes selfies, 'eats' popcorn

Looks like the GPT party/trend isn't over yet. What we have been witnessing was just the mind in action, it's about time we witnessed it's body in action too - in the form of robots. How about a robot that eats popcorn?
Hold on a minute, how does a robot eating popcorn relate with generative models ?

The only way to find out is to keep reading. A piece of advice, enjoy the party while it lasts. 😉

Humans might have driven 1,500 bird species to extinction — twice previous estimates

Millions of years ago before the existence of man, some catastrophic events happened that caused the then rulers of our planet to go extinct - i mean the dinosaurs. Well, not all went extinct, the avian kinds managed to survive and evolve to modern birds but it appears these descendants aren't also safe. Guess who is orchestrating another catastrophic event ?

You guessed right, keep reading. What did the dinosaurs do to the universe to deserve such treatment ? 😭😭🤭😉

Does quantum theory imply the entire Universe is preordained?

The predictive power of classical physics owes depth to it's deterministic nature and that was originally thought to be the case for all of physics until the advent of quantum physics where at fundamental scale determinism seems to have no much power and thus overturning the old belief. However, the determinism in classical physics isn't a strong one, the laws and initial conditions can't be predicted instead they are being used to do predictions. If all the laws and initial conditions can be predicted from a more fundamental and unchanging law, then we have "strong determinism" and this could also mean that our current universe may be predetermined, including us and our actions. In this report, it seems to be suggested that the quantum world may be more deterministic than the classic one or rather quantum physics may hold the key to strong determinism. That seems paradoxical, where does the indeterministic nature of quantum physics then comes from ?

That's a very interesting question 🤔 but keep reading to find out and more. I have some questions though, was I predestined to give you this report?
Was I predestined to ask the first question?
Lastly, why and why the why ?
🤭

It is here we conclude today's report, have a thoughtful day and till i come your way again by the end of this year. Happy Christmas everyone!!! 🥳🎅🎄⛄
