Imagine if every pattern shaped by nature – like a protein’s fold or cosmic phenomena – is inherently learnable by AI. @DemisHassabis shares with @lexfridman that if AI can learn these natural patterns, we could open doors to new eras of scientific discovery. Listen now. ↓ https://x.com/GoogleDeepMind/status/1948098855053979930

Thanks @lexfridman for another super fun & wide-ranging conversation. We talked about the future of video games, the nature of reality, advancing science with AI, the path to AGI… and quite a bit more as usual!

Introducing the first model for contextualizing ancient inscriptions, designed to help historians better interpret, attribute and restore fragmentary texts. – Google DeepMind https://deepmind.google/discover/blog/aeneas-transforms-how-historians-connect-the-past/

Neat example of AI in the humanities. A Google model trained on Latin text fills in lost parts of Latin inscriptions & identifies related texts Historians increased their accuracy by 44% when working with the AI (Though AI alone beats historians, historian + AI was usually best) https://x.com/emollick/status/1948063719042498587

Our new state-of-the-art AI model Aeneas transforms how historians connect the past. 📜 Ancient inscriptions often lack context – it’s like solving a puzzle with 90% of the pieces lost to time. It helps researchers interpret and situate inscriptions in their past context. 🧵 https://x.com/GoogleDeepMind/status/1948037924882133390
