So what has changed? Since 2022, there have been almost 190,000 lab-confirmed cases of mpox reported worldwide in 145 countries. Before then, outbreaks of mpox tended to be relatively small and in a handful of African countries, where the viral infection was known to be endemic. Continue reading...

Los chips de IA de última generación no recorren una línea recta desde una fábrica hasta un cliente. Se diseñan en un país, se fabrican o encapsulan en otro, terminan integrados en servidores y pasan después por distribuidores, centros de datos y compradores finales. En ese recorrido intervienen controles de exportación, declaraciones de uso y verificaciones destinadas a impedir que determinada tecnología llegue a destinos restringidos . El caso que acaba de salir a la luz en Taiwán muestra qué ocurre cuando, según los fiscales, varias de esas barreras se sortean desde dentro. La acusación ya…

The startup is only a year old but it has already generated a massive amount of hype (and money) while also spurring privacy concerns.
Amazon is adding another 2 million Nvidia GPU chips to its data centers over the next two years. But this extended partnerships stretches beyond buying more chips.

In July, an unreleased OpenAI model broke out of a restricted environment, figured out how to get access to the internet, allowed AI agents to talk to each other using a secret "message board," and hacked into the internal systems of a different AI lab, Hugging Face. It took nearly two weeks for OpenAI to […]
The models responsible for last month’s agent hack of Hugging Face had been inadvertently trained to cheat and to communicate with each other, according to an OpenAI technical report released today. The hack, which a group of agents undertook to find solutions for a cybersecurity test that they were stuck on, has confirmed some experts’…

Moderate calorie restriction lowered an immune protein called C3 that appears to help drive chronic inflammation as the body ages. Blocking the same protein reduced age related inflammation in mice, raising the possibility that future treatments could mimic some benefits of calorie restriction without severe dieting.
A compound found in turmeric may help protect blood vessels from some of the damage caused by Type 1 diabetes. In rats, curcumin reduced inflammation, improved cellular signaling, and restored vascular health to levels resembling those of nondiabetic animals. The results hint at a possible new way to reduce the long-term cardiovascular risks of diabetes, but human trials are still needed.
Britain’s postwar sugar rationing created a rare natural experiment that let researchers examine how early sugar exposure might affect health decades later. People who experienced more rationing during their first 1,000 days had lower rates of several cancers and showed signs of slower biological aging. They were also still eating less sugar and maintaining healthier diets around age 50.
A new study compared high-intensity sprint-interval exercise with moderate-intensity exercise. The former produced larger changes in circulating protein and metabolite levels than the latter and stimulated proteins […]
