Despite several years of deployment, 5G has largely fallen short of its lofty promises, offering modest speed improvements, spotty coverage, and limited real-time application benefits, with many of the advanced features still in development and the technology not yet a game changer.
OpenAI's large language model, ChatGPT-4.0, achieved an 85% accuracy rate in a clinical neurology exam, surpassing the average human score of 73.8%. The study conducted by researchers from the University Hospital Heidelberg and the German Cancer Research Center suggests that with further refinement, language models like ChatGPT-4.0 could have significant applications in clinical neurology. However, the models demonstrated weaker performance in tasks requiring higher-order thinking. The researchers recommend cautious usage of language models in practice, as they still require development and fine-tuning for proper application in clinical neurology.
Scientists awarded the 2023 Nobel Prize in physics have made significant contributions to attosecond science, which involves capturing the ultrafast motion of electrons using attosecond laser pulses. By using these pulses as strobes, researchers can create "attosecond movies" of electron behavior, providing fundamental insights into their motion. This understanding could lead to advancements in controlling chemical reactions, engineering new molecules, and developing ultrafast switches for faster electronics. Attosecond science also holds potential applications in EUV lithography and the study of particle motion on even faster timescales.
