Jensen Huang 將對話帶向了 AI 的下一個前沿:物理 AI。「AI 需要具備物理感知和物理理解。因果關係、重力、碰撞、慣性、物體恆存性——這些都會深刻影響物理行為和物理智慧。」
他列舉了 NVIDIA 在這個領域的多個領先模型:Cosmos 是全球下載量最大的物理 AI 模型;自動駕駛領域的 Alpaca-Mayo 排名第一;人形機器人模型 GR00T 是全球下載量最大的人形機器人模型;數位生物學領域的 La Proteina 也取得了巨大成功。
「兩年後,我們大概不會再討論 agentic AI 了,因為大家都已經在用了。到時候我們會開始討論物理 AI,而且會持續談論十年。」他也提到了與 Eli Lilly 共同成立創新實驗室的合作案。「除非你擁有 NVIDIA 這樣的完整軟體堆疊和數位生物學領域的專業能力,否則你要怎麼建置 Lilly 的 AI 工廠?」
Shere Hite, Who Challenged Myths of Female Sexuality, Dies at 77
Her 1976 book, ‘The Hite Report,’ touched off ‘a revolution in the bedroom’ and has sold tens of millions of copies. But harsh criticism drove her to self-exile in Europe.

Shere Hite, who startled the world in the 1970s with her groundbreaking reports on female sexuality and her conclusion that women did not need conventional sexual intercourse — or men, for that matter — to achieve sexual satisfaction, died on Wednesday at her home in London. She was 77.

"Speaking
the truth is not a crime," wrote Edward J. Snowden. "I am confident
that with the support of the international community, the government of
the United States will abandon this harmful behavior.”
Onionhead CerebrumCome Up from the Fields Father (by Walt Whitman,1819-1892)
《爸爸!快從田裏上來》 (尤克強譯)
Come up from the fields father, here's a letter from our Pete, And come to the front door mother, here's a letter from thy dear son.
爸爸!快從田裏上來,我們的彼得來信了 媽媽!快來到前門口,您親愛的兒子來信了
Lo, 'tis autumn, Lo, where the trees, deeper green, yellower and redder, Cool and sweeten Ohio's villages with leaves fluttering in the moderate wind, Where apples ripe in the orchards hang and grapes on the trellis'd vines, (Smell you the smell of the grapes on the vines? Smell you the buckwheat where the bees were lately buzzing?)
Above all, lo, the sky so calm, so transparent after the rain, and with wondrous clouds, Below too, all calm, all vital and beautiful, and the farm prospers well.
看那上方!雨後的天空清澈寧靜,點綴著夢幻的浮雲 下方也同樣美麗寧靜生氣勃勃,農莊欣欣向榮
Down in the fields all prospers well, But now from the fields come father, come at the daughter's call. And come to the entry mother, to the front door come right away.
大地田野一切都欣欣向榮 但是現在爸爸聽到女兒的呼喚,從田裏上來了 媽媽也急急忙忙,趕到前門口
Fast as she can she hurries, something ominous, her steps trembling, She does not tarry to smooth her hair nor adjust her cap.
她步履踉蹌匆匆趕來,心中有不祥之兆 頭髮來不及梳齊,帽子也來不及整理
Open the envelope quickly, O this is not our son's writing, yet his name is sign'd, O a strange hand writes for our dear son, O stricken mother's soul! All swims before her eyes, flashes with black, she catches the main words only, Sentences broken, gunshot wound in the breast, cavalry skirmish, taken to hospital, At present low, but will soon be better.
Ah now the single figure to me, Amid all teeming and wealthy Ohio with all its cities and farms, Sickly white in the face and dull in the head, very faint, By the jamb of a door leans.
Grieve not so, dear mother, (the just-grown daughter speaks through her sobs, The little sisters huddle around speechless and dismay'd,) See, dearest mother, the letter says Pete will soon be better.
Alas poor boy, he will never be better, (nor may-be needs to be better, that brave and simple soul,) While they stand at home at the door he is dead already, The only son is dead.
But the mother needs to be better, She with thin form presently drest in black, By day her meals untouch'd, then at night fitfully sleeping, often waking, In the midnight waking, weeping, longing with one deep longing, O that she might withdraw unnoticed, silent from life escape and withdraw, To follow, to seek, to be with her dear dead son.
After weeks of silence, the former N.S.A. contractor Edward J.
Snowden appealed for help in gaining asylum in Russia as he continued to
seek passage to Latin America.
Intelligence
Snowden claims to have more damaging information on US spying
The journalist who broke the story about an intelligence leaker says he
has even more damaging information about US spying activities. He said
this would be released if something were to happen to Edward Snowden.
Glenn Greenwald, a journalist with Britain's Guardian newspaper, which
first published Snowden's revelations, told Argentina's La Nacion that
the former National Security Agency contractor and Central Intelligence
Agency employee had so far elected to withhold much of the information
he has.
"Snowden has enough information to cause harm to the US government in a
single minute than any other person has ever had," Greenwald said in an
interview in Rio de Janeiro published in the Saturday edition of the
paper.
"The US government should be on its knees every day begging that nothing
happen to Snowden, because if something does happen to him, all the
information will be revealed and it could be its worst nightmare,"
Greenwald added.
Snowden remains problematic
He also said among the documents Snowden had hid away in several
different locations were some that detail how US spy programs conduct
surveillance in Latin America.
"One way of intercepting communications is through a telephone company
in the United States that has contracts with telecommunications
companies in most Latin American countries," Greenwald said, without
naming the company. Stranded in Sheremetyvo
Snowden, 30, has been stranded in the transit area of one of Moscow's
international airports since he left Hong Kong three weeks ago. It was
while he was in Hong Kong that the Guardian first published his
revelations.
Since then, US authorities have been seeking to get Snowden extradited so that he can be put on trial on espionage charges.
On Friday, Snowden told activists who visited him at Sheremetyvo Airport
that he planned to apply for temporary asylum in Russia until it was
safe for him to travel on to a permanent destination in Latin America.
On Saturday, Russian authorities said that they had not yet received
such an application from Snowden. Meanwhile, Bolivian President Evo
Morales reiterated his offer of asylum to Snowden while at the same time
pledging that La Paz would adhere to all "diplomatic norms and
international accords."
