Yesterday, at #ijcai, Micheal Wooldridge gave a talk about "How to Speak to the Public about Artificial Intelligence". Good talk, interesting stories and very funny.

Morality: "if you don't inform the public about AI, then someone who knows even less than you will."

Keep in mind that this is addressed to a public of people having or pursing a PhD in the field.

Let's have a #longThread about #human #species between 7 and 1 Mya.
It was periods of scarce population and immense #diversity.
(Forgive my gross #popularisation.)

Interesting #popularisation of a new #algorithm to solve the maximum flow and minimum cost problems in #GraphTheory. It brings me back to studying operations research, something I always regret not learning more of. As many problems in the field, interest began in the Soviet Union, in this case to plan and analyse its rail system. https://www.quantamagazine.org/researchers-achieve-absurdly-fast-algorithm-for-network-flow-20220608/

Computer scientists can now solve a decades-old problem in practically the time it takes to write it down.
