[ad_1] This is Behind the Blog, where we share our behind-the-scenes thoughts about how a few of our top stories of the week came together. This week, we talk about conjuring gaming memories, AI-generated Birkin bags, and a rejection of a certain type of criticism. [ad_2]
[ad_1] AI-generated images are not just hyper-realistic; they can also be crafted to embody an infinite variety of features, expressions, and aesthetics. A recent example is a post by Moritz Stellmacher on X that showcases a very intriguing human portrait, leaving viewers puzzled about whether it’s a photograph of a real person or an AI creation. […]
[ad_1] We start this week with Emanuel's story on how AI-powered ads on Buzzfeed are recommending people buy things like a hat worn by a person who died by suicide. After the break, Joseph talks about an unprecedented leak out of phone forensics tech Graykey. In the subscribers-only section, Sam tells us about HarperCollins' AI […]
[ad_1] Abstract We propose a novel geometric model to explain the observed redshift of light from distant celestial objects without invoking cosmic expansion or gravitational redshift. By examining the angular geometry between the light source, the observer, and a fixed reference point “above” the observer, we demonstrate how spatial geometry alone can lead to an […]
[ad_1] Welcome back to the Abstract! This week, we’ll travel back in time to 1986, when Voyager 2 became the first (and still only) spacecraft to visit Uranus. This flyby has profoundly affected our view of this mysterious world, but new research suggests we got off on the wrong foot with Uranus and its moons. […]
