From the lab that brought you the reason behind yellow pee comes another monumental advance in digestive science: a fart-tracking sensor to be attached to your underwear. As it turns out, farts are also part of the mundane things that science has yet to fully explain—an issue this sensor purports to address.
Basically, if the models continue eating each other’s data, perhaps without even knowing it, they’ll progressively get weirder and dumber until they collapse. The researchers provide numerous examples and mitigation methods, but they go so far as to call model collapse “inevitable,” at least in theory.
Nuclear fusion occurs when atoms merge together, a process that unleashes an enormous amount of energy. These reactions are the reason that stars shine, and scientists on Earth hope that they could one day form the basis of a clean power system that could ease our civilization’s transition away from fossil fuels.
