AI (in the form of LLMs) will never be creative. It copies; it does not innovate.
A mathematical ceiling limits generative AI to amateur-level creativity
A new study argues that the algorithms driving tools like ChatGPT impose a hard limit on originality. By prioritizing probable answers, these models are structurally confined to producing amateur-leve...

A fascinating theory here about the nature of the observer in a topologically closed universe. Without such an observer, such a universe, paradoxically, can't even exist. There seems a requirement for information to be present on an observable boundary for the concept of information to have meaning.
Cosmic Paradox Reveals the Awful Consequence of an Observer-Free Universe | Quanta Magazine
Encouraged by successes in understanding black holes, theoretical physicists are applying what they’ve learned to whole universes. What they’re finding has them questioning fundamental assumptions abo...

Gotta see this exhibit!
I've been a dino fan since childhood. The discovery of the K-T boundary changed science. Catastrophism beat gradualism in the scientific mind. The Deccan pits hypothesis succumbed to the horrors of Chicxulub.

They're finally snuffing out the 'standard candle.' It's an assumption in cosmology that all Type 1A supernovas are exactly the same. Without it, the age, distance and expansion rate of the observable universe will need to be recalibrated, and some of the Hubble tension should disappear.

Remarkable new study determines there is 'no evidence' of an accelerating universe
"Remarkable" findings from Yonsei University cast doubt on 'dark energy' theory and claim there is "no evidence" of an accelerating universe.

Sometimes you got to break out the old records just to keep the dust from collecting. Dark Side was always one of my favorites...
I like vinyl because it lasts. To think, this thing was pressed a full 52 years ago now, yet it still sounds awesome.

Working with kids on creative writing recently has reminded me: storytelling, at its heart, is a human to human sharing of language and meaning and experience.
No kind of imitative machine, AI or other, will ever be able to do that. It's a fundamentally cognitive act; it can't be faked.

Autumn is the spirit season. Someone once said it's when the veil between one world and another thins. A dying time, perhaps, but a sacred transition: when color and sunsets umber and burn, the light of heaven begins to stretch and days fade. After the last leaf is down, nature whispers "eternity."

I've been working hard on the sci-fi sequel; it's been a ton of fun. Should have the full manuscript completed very soon. Soo... I decided to go ahead and release an early chapter on my author's page.
