Writing notes by hand does seem to help learning, but a new experiment shows the real advantage is smaller and stranger than the internet says – Silicon Canals
More words were associated with better quiz performance in both the original study and the replication. Verbatim overlap was associated with worse performance, although that relationship was less robust in the replication. This makes the simple story awkward in a useful way: recording more can help, copying without processing can hurt, and a keyboard makes both easier.
Mathematical Experiments Are Becoming Abundant Through Human-Machine Teaming | Towards Data Science
The scale and level of mathematical sophistication differ enormously from my own weekend project, but the underlying workflow is remarkably similar: generate many candidate approaches, eliminate most of them through exact computation and criticism, formalise what can be formalised, and reserve human judgement for novelty, correctness and significance. The important observation is not that either system solved a famous open problem. It is that mathematical experimentation itself is becoming dramatically cheaper, while proof, understanding, novelty and independent review remain scarce.

How Claude’s text watermarking works Anthropic
There are limitations to the effectiveness of watermarking. Using our key, one can only answer the question “What is the likelihood this was partly written by Claude?” It doesn’t confirm whether the text was human-written, and it can’t tell whether the text was written by a different AI (even if that other AI uses watermarking, it would have a different key; it might also use a different watermarking method altogether). Detecting a watermark also doesn’t work well on small samples, where there are fewer word choices and thus less information to go on. As a passage increases in length, confidence about Claude’s involvement increases too.
A Swarm of Blood Robots — by Craig Mod
I dumped into Claude my huge document containing all I knew about my adoption. I added stories and notes I had about family members on both maternal and paternal sides. And then I said: OK, you have access to my Ancestry account (via the Chrome plugin), I want you to find out as much as you can about these people, their ancestors, using my DNA results and connections therein, and continue to iterate until we’ve exhausted all data trails.

“An operator can drag blocks together in their Blockly editor, to define each fraud routine, given a task type,” reads Bitsight’s report. “Once the routine is saved, it gets exported as JavaScript and uploaded to the S3 buckets. An operator doesn’t need as much understanding of the underlying technicalities, as it is all set in place for ease of use.”

Tons of Peoples’ Claude Chats and Creations are Exposed on Google
Like other chatbots, Claude lets people share their conversations with others by creating a publicly accessible link of the chat. People may do this to send the full text of a conversation to their friends or coworkers in a group chat, for example. But they may not realize Google is also surfacing these links in search results, making them available to essentially anyone.

The Rise of Anti-Flock Influencers Who Make Things Up for Clout
In that video, he said he’s starting a “bail fund” in case he’s arrested and goes to jail. Collectively, these posts and videos have hundreds of thousands of likes and millions of views. But the cease-and-desist is not real; it is a wholesale fabrication created by the influencer for attention, likes, and clout. He is at zero risk of persecution or arrest for speaking out about Flock (though he may be at risk for forging a fake cease-and-desist letter.) In the meantime, Orion has gotten more than 30,000 new followers in the last month according to the Instagram tracking website NotJustAnalytics, a period in which he has posted essentially only about Flock and, primarily, about his stickers and his cease-and-desist letter.
