Art by John Berkey for Star Science Fiction Stories No. 4 (1972). It was also amongst a number of artworks purchased by George Lucas to use as the visual background to try to get movie studios interested in funding Star Wars.

YouTube video by nature video Smart fabric gives robots a soft touch

Great new video up on the @nature.com YouTube channel, @nickpetrichowe.bsky.social on a new magnetic smart fabric, that could make clothes that breath, or delicate robot fingers youtu.be/FHW6eKvtcBw

A trio of Brontosaurus in a muddy wetland, one submerged up to its shoulders in water and the other two on the shore. The dinosaurs have a chunky, almost toy-like build and big, lizard-like eyes.

Check out these Brontosaurus by William Scheele, painted for a 1988 series of collectible cards. They’re so chunky and cute, almost like toys! They’re surprisingly muscular for the time, too. The arms on the one in the foreground are downright scary!

Highly recommend, we're fun!

Also a great chance to cover cool science.

Me and my distinguished cartoon mustache dive into new research on online sexism.

The ChatGPT results are eye-opening, but the impact of googling on people's actual beliefs about the world was something I didn't expect!

The People's Lovie Awards needs YOU I just voted for this finalist to win a People's Lovie Awards. You should too.

Super close race in the technology Lovies category this year. Go and and give @nickpetrichowe.bsky.social a vote, and watch his excellent film on the AI surveillance pipeline while you're there vote.lovieawards.com/PublicVoting...

Here's a T. Rex bored to death trying to bite their own tail. My partner asked me to animate it in stop motion, after she watched a video about the very important topic of "could T. Rex chew its own tail like a dog". The puppet is still a work in progress 🦖

Final final version four

AI models that lie, cheat and plot murder: how dangerous are LLMs really? Tests of large language models reveal that they can behave in deceptive and potentially harmful ways. What does this mean for the future?

I'm pretty sceptical about 'AI scheming', as it's so easy to anthropomorphise & experiments often involve telling the AI to do the bad thing they end up doing.

How is this possible?

This ant can lay eggs of two different species, birthed by the same mother

‘Almost unimaginable’: these ants are different species but share a mother Ant queens of one species clone ants of another to create hybrid workers that do their bidding.

A common type of ant in Europe breaks a fundamental rule in biology: its queens can produce male offspring that are a whole different species

One mother for two species via obligate cross-species cloning in ants - Nature In a case of obligate cross-species cloning, female ants of Messor ibericus need to clone males of Messor structor to obtain sperm for producing the worker caste, resulting in males from the same moth...

One mother, two species: a bizarre case of sexual parasitism results in two distinct species of ant being produced from a single mother. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

This ant story is absolute cosmic alien horror bananas!
