This week mathematicians used AI to solve the first “Millennium Prize Problem” in 20 years—the field’s greatest conceivable achievement. Artificial intelligence companies are pushing their tech to surpass humans in every way possible.

For math, the stakes are existential. The AI industry is convinced that conquering the subject’s “objective” truth is how companies will persuade investors that they’re on the path to superintelligence.

What happens when machines surpass the most brilliant human minds? How do you preserve what you love doing most when a machine can suddenly do it better? Mathematicians are finding out. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/mathematicians-confront-the-ai-apocalypse/

The human brain makes sense of the world using stories.

Over the past decade, scientists used sophisticated mathematical tools to decode the brain’s response to movies to understand its narrative wiring. They found biological real estate dedicated to intuiting a story’s cinematic divisions, editing the footage, tracking its characters and extracting its meaning. They’ve also revealed neural scaffolds for familiar scenarios that the brain relies on when people encounter new but similar situations. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-brain-doesnt-just-experience-reality-it-edits-it-into-a-story/

OECD Evaluation Guidance: From Evidence to Better Decisions Evaluation is more than measuring whether activities were completed—it is about understanding what changed, why it changed, for whom, and what can be improved. The OECD DAC Evaluation Criteria provide a practical framework for assessing d...

Nang pumutok ang Bulkang Taal noong 2020, nagbuga ito ng napakaraming abo na kumalat sa mga karatig na lugar. Dahil mapanganib sa kalusugan ng tao ang abong bulkaniko, nakaaapekto sa transportasyon, at nakapipinsala sa agrikultura at imprastraktura, mahalagang matukoy kung paano ito kakalat kapag sumabog ang bulkan at kung saan ito posibleng mapunta upang matiyak ang kaligtasan ng mga tao at mabawasan ang mga posibleng pinsala.

Nagsagawa sina Ken Matthew Oliva, Dr. Reinier Mendoza, Dr. Rhudaina Mohammad, at Dr. Arrianne Crystal Velasco ng UP Diliman Institute of Mathematics at UP Diliman Natural Sciences Research Institute ng simulasyon upang pag-aralan kung paano kumakalat sa atmospera ang abo mula sa Bulkang Taal. Tinantiya nila ang diffusion rate o bilis ng pagkalat ng abo gamit ang tatlong pamamaraan.

Una, nagtakda sila ng batayang sukatan sa pamamagitan ng maraming simulasyon. Pagkatapos, ginamit nila ang least squares method upang maiangkop ang numerikal na solusyon sa mga profile ng konsentrasyon ng abo. Bagama't naging epektibo ang pamamaraang ito kung wasto at kumpleto ang mga datos, nabawasan ang katumpakan nito nang lagyan ng 5% ingay (noise) ang datos. Ipinakita nito na sensitibo ang inverse estimation process sa pagsukat ng saklaw ng halaga.

Bilang panghuli, iminungkahi nila ang ikatlong pamamaraan na gumagamit ng datos mula sa satellite brightness temperature. Nagbigay ito ng mga pagtataya ng diffusion na tugma sa mga batayang simulasyon. Ang nabuong diffusion rate ay maaaring makatulong sa pagkalkula sa direksyon at lawak ng pagkalat ng abo mula sa bulkan.

Key details of the proposed Pax Silica industrial hub in New Clark City remain unsettled, with government officials telling a Senate hearing that foreign investors have yet to submit a development plan and consultations with affected communities have not been completed.
