One is the wife of Today presenter Karl Stefanovic, while the other is enjoying a new romance with Australian cricketer Michael Clarke. So it was no wonder Jasmine and Jade Yarbrough were the talk of the town. After a pair of unnamed Queensland sisters, the look-alike blondes have found fame in recent years thanks to their high-profile relationship, perhaps attesting to the old adage: ‘It’s not what you know, but who you know.’ How Jade Yarbrough (left) and Jasmine Stefanovic (right) rose to the top of the social scene by pairing up with world-famous TV stars and cricketers Amid reports of Jade and Michael’s new relationship, Daily Mail Australia looks at the Yarbrough sisters’ climb to the top of the social ladder.

The study analyzes the spontaneous social interactions of children aged 2 and 4 years when interacting with peers

What do building a pyramid, going to the moon, pedaling a two-person canoe, or dancing the waltz have in common? All of these actions are the result of a common goal between many partners and lead to a sense of shared obligation, known as “mutual commitment”. This ability to cooperate is universal in humans and certain animal species, such as the great apes. However, humans seem to have a unique predisposition and strong desire for social interaction that may be one component of the emergence of language, according to the study authors. How do our social interactions differ from other species? And why? To answer this question, an international team analyzed the interactions of 31 children between the ages of 2 and 4 in four preschools in the United States (10 hours per child). There are only a few quantitative analyzes of the spontaneous social interactions of children aged 2 and 4 years when interacting with peers, even though this age is a critical age for the development of chi

AI model detects people's attitudes towards vaccines from their social media posts

People’s attitudes towards vaccines can now be detected from their social media posts with a smart AI model, developed by researchers at the University of Warwick. An AI-based model can analyze social media posts and determine the author’s attitude towards vaccines, by being ‘trained’ to recognize that attitude from a small number of sample tweets. As a simple example, if a post contains mention of distrust of health care institutions, fear of needles, or something related to a known conspiracy theory, the model can recognize that the person who wrote it may have negative feelings about vaccinations. The research, funded by UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), will be presented today (12 July) at the North American Association of Computational Linguistics Annual Conference 2022. It is led by Professor Yulan He from the University’s Department of Computer Science, supported by a 5-year Turing AI Fellowship funded by the EPSRC.
