BIG flight backlog hits travelers after airport chaos

Image
Perth Airport is in chaos after desperately trying to recover from a total blackout due to a severe storm that criss-crossed the State. The flights are already running but there is a huge backlog with passengers trying to get through security. Hundreds of people with high vision were in Terminal 2 as regional flights took off. The line to pass through security is almost out the door as people race to make their flights on time. Terminal 1 is less chaotic, almost like a ghost town, as some flights are still cancelled. An airport spokesman said the terminals were “fully operational” as of 10pm last night, but the after effects of the impact could still be felt. Perth Airport has announced a thorough review of its backup power system in light of the power outage. While the backup power for the critical runway was turned on, the terminal went into chaos as the backup power failed to turn on. Chief executive Kevin Brown said a review would begin soon to understand why parts of t...

Big language models can't plan, even if they write fancy essays

Image
This article is part of our coverage of the latest AI research. Large language models such as GPT-3 have grown to the point where it is difficult to measure the limits of their capabilities. When you have a very large neural network that can produce articles, write software code, and engage in conversations about feelings and life, you should expect it to be able to reason about tasks and plans like humans do, right? Wrong. A study by researchers at Arizona State University, Tempe, showed that when it comes to planning and methodical thinking, LLMs perform very poorly, and suffer from many of the same failures observed in today’s deep learning systems. Regards, humanoids Subscribe to our newsletter now for weekly recaps of our favorite AI stories in your inbox. Interestingly, this study found that, although very large LLMs such as GPT-3 and PaLM pass many tests intended to evaluate reasoning abilities and artificial intelligence systems, they do so because these benchmarks are t...

Look! This distant galaxy hosted the most powerful explosion since the Big Bang

Image
the little one The dim, red dot in the center of the newly released image of a distant galaxy indicates the galaxy underwent one of the most powerful explosions since the Big Bang. Astronomer Brendan O’Connor and his colleagues recently discovered this as-yet-unnamed galaxy 9 billion light-years away in data from the Gemini North Telescope in Hawai’i, and they say it is the source of a brilliant, bright beam of gamma radiation. brief dazzling NASA. Swift Observatory in late 2015. Imagine an explosion releasing as much energy as our Sun would in 10 billion years – compressed into an explosion in less than two seconds. Astronomers call this almost unimaginable catastrophe a short gamma-ray burst, and the universe hasn’t seen a brighter or more powerful explosion since the Big Bang. What could cause such an event? The answer appears to involve two colliding neutron stars. Binary star systems are not very rare in the universe; one of our closest neighbors, Alpha Centa...

Jupiter's Big Moon Prevents It From Developing Beautiful Rings Like Saturn

Image
It is made of gas, but is more than twice as massive as every other planet in our solar system combined. Surrounded by 79 separate lunar companions, one of which is a prime candidate in the quest to find extraterrestrial life. It was even named after the king of the ancient Roman gods. Jupiter seems to have it all — except the cool rings. For some strange reason, this alpha planet has rings that are to Saturn’s spectacular circle like chopsticks to a tree trunk. Thin. Not significant. “Unlike Saturn’s ice rings, which are full of large chunks of ice and rock, they are made up of tiny dust particles,” according to NASA. Jupiter’s disks are so fragile that we didn’t even notice it until 1979, thanks to the agency’s Voyager 1 spacecraft and, with some luck, perfectly placed sunlight. But on Thursday, researchers beginning to understand why Jupiter has these insane flaws said they may have finally found an answer. Details of th...

The James Webb Space Telescope May Have Found The Oldest Galaxy Ever

Just a week after its first images were shown to the world, the James Webb Space Telescope may have discovered a galaxy that existed 13.5 billion years ago, a scientist analyzing the data said Wednesday. Known as GLASS-z13, this galaxy dates back to 300 million years after the Big Bang, about 100 million years earlier than anything previously identified, Rohan Naidu of the Harvard Center for Astrophysics told AFP. “We are potentially seeing the light of the most distant star that anyone has ever seen,” he said. The further away the object is from us, the longer it will take for its light to reach us, and so gazing back into the distant universe is looking into the deep past. JWST has the potential to break records, discovering galaxies that existed when the universe was only 300 million years old! Light from GLASS-z13 took 13.4 billion years to reach us, but the distance between us is now 33 billion light years due to the expansion of the universe! pic.twitter.com/5AcOBwHuO...
