Google's DeepMind Pens 'Robot Constitution' to Govern Helper Robots
Google's DeepMind , Pens 'Robot Constitution' , to Govern Helper Robots.
On January 4, Google announced a set of rules
meant to govern the artificial intelligence system
behind the company's intelligent machines.
Gizmodo reports that the so-called
'Robot Constitution' is based on
Isaac Asimov's 'Three Laws of Robotics.'.

Before robots can be integrated
into our everyday lives, they need
to be developed responsibly with
robust research demonstrating
their real-world safety, Google DeepMind robotics team, via blog post.
The 'Robot Constitution' was written by Google's DeepMind, the tech company's primary AI research wing.
Google reportedly has plans for intelligent robots
to soon help around homes and offices in the near future.
These robotic helpers would run on a system of large language
models (LLMs) and neural networks that would allow
them to make decisions and be aware of their surroundings.
Google says the 'Robot Constitution' is meant to act as part of a
system of "layered safety protocols" which govern the machines
that have already been deployed on the company's campus.
DeepMind has currently deployed 52 unique robots
that have performed 6,650 different tasks over
the course of 77,000 robotic trials.
Google's robot assistants are not allowed to
accept tasks that involve humans, animals,
sharp objects or electrical appliances.
Gizmodo reports that the machines currently being
tested by Google have only operated under the watchful
eye of a human supervisor holding a physical kill switch.

Cereal requires minimal preparation,
is shelf-stable, convenient, affordable
and can be a good way to get
some fiber in the morning, Leslie Bonci, a sports dietitian for the Kansas City Chiefs
and founder of Active Eating Advice, via 'USA Today'.
Cereal can also be a great way to
get micronutrients and one of the
best ways to ensure B vitamin
intake is included in your diet. , Leslie Bonci, a sports dietitian for the Kansas City Chiefs
and founder of Active Eating Advice, via 'USA Today'.
However, "cereals that are made of refined grains – grains that have had parts of the grain kernel removed – are lower in fiber and nutrients," according to registered dietitian Kate Zeratsky.
Added sugars are also a concern. For adults, the FDA advises consuming no more than 50 grams of added sugars per day as part of a 2,000-calorie diet.
The agency recommends that
children don't exceed 25 grams.
But some cereals contain large amounts of added sugars, such as Post's Golden Crisp, which has
21 grams of added sugars in just one cup.
Zeratsky suggests sticking with cereal brands that have added sugars "in the single digits" that also contain whole grains.
Cheerios and Rice Krispies contain

Last week, workers held sit-in
protests at Google's offices in both
New York and Sunnyvale, California.
The protests were organized by the group
No Tech For Apartheid, who said that 30 workers
were fired following the initial sit-in. .
According to Jane Chung, a spokeswoman for
No Tech For Apartheid, Google has now fired
"over 20" more workers, “including non-participating
bystanders during last week’s protests.”.
Google’s aims are clear:
the corporation is attempting
to quash dissent, silence
its workers, and reassert
its power over them, Jane Chung, a spokeswoman for No Tech For Apartheid, via 'The Independent'.
In its attempts to do so,
Google has decided to
unceremoniously, and
without due process,
upend the livelihoods of
over 50 of its own workers, Jane Chung, a spokeswoman for No Tech For Apartheid, via 'The Independent'.

Google has disputed the group's claims,
stressing that the company carefully found that, “every single one of those whose employment
was terminated was personally and definitively
involved in disruptive activity inside our buildings.”

Google Fires Employees , for Protesting Israel Contract.
28 Google workers have been fired for protesting
a $1.2 billion contract that the company has with
the Israeli government and military to provide
cloud and AI services, NBC News reports. .
The firings follow an April 16 sit-in at
Google's offices in California, New York and Seattle in which nine workers were arrested.
The group that coordinated the demonstration
is known as No Tech for Apartheid. .
Google issued a statement about the recent firings.
A small number of employee
protesters entered and disrupted
a few of our locations. , Google spokesperson, via statement.
Physically impeding other employees’
work and preventing them from
accessing our facilities is a clear
violation of our policies, and
completely unacceptable behavior. , Google spokesperson, via statement.
We have so far concluded
individual investigations that
resulted in the termination of
employment for 28 employees,
and will continue to investigate
and take action as needed, Google spokesperson, via statement.
No Tech for Apartheid claims that the
workers were fired "indiscriminately.".
This excuse to avoid confronting
us and our concerns directly,
and attempt to justify its illegal,
retaliatory firings, is a lie, No Tech for Apartheid, via statement.
Meanwhile, many of Google's workers have
reportedly quit after experiencing "mental health consequences of working at a company that is using their labor to enable a genocide," No Tech for Apartheid said.
On a personal level, I am opposed
to Google taking any military
contracts — no matter which
government they’re with or what
exactly the contract is about. , Cheyne Anderson, a Google Cloud software engineer based
in Washington who was arrested during a sit-in, to CNBC

Scientists Question Claim , That T. Rex Was as Smart, as Modern Monkeys.
'Gizmodo' reports that a team of researchers
recently investigated claims that the Tyrannosaurus rex
could have been as smart as monkeys.
Last year, a paper was published in the journal
'Comparative Neurology,' which claimed that theropods like
Tyrannosaurus rex had a “monkey-like” numbers of neurons.
According to that paper, this would have made
the Tyrannosaurus rex "not only giant but also
long-lived and endowed with flexible cognition.”.
The new paper specifically referenced the previous paper
and argues that theropods probably had “significantly
lower neuron counts than previously proposed.".
According to the team, neuron count
and brain size are “flawed” proxies for
measuring an ancient species’ intelligence.
We argue that it’s not good
practice to predict intelligence
in extinct species when neuron
counts reconstructed from
endocasts are all we have to go on, Kai Caspar, a biologist at Heinrich Heine University
Düsseldorf and the study’s lead author, via 'Gizmodo'.
The possibility that T. rex might
have been as intelligent as a baboon
is fascinating and terrifying,
with the potential to reinvent
our view of the past, Darren Naish, Paleozoologist at the University of
Southampton and co-author of the paper, via 'Gizmodo'.

But our study shows how
all the data we have is against
this idea. They were more
like smart giant crocodiles,
and that’s just as fascinating, Darren Naish, Paleozoologist at the University of
Southampton and co-author of the paper, via 'Gizmodo'.
'Gizmodo' reports that even if Tyrannosaurus rex
wasn't as intelligent as a modern monkey,
it was still a terrifying creature. .
The fearsome predator also has an outsized
presence in popular culture, leading theropods
to attract a high degree of interest.

Astronomers Say , Neutron Jet Emissions , Travel at Relativistic Speeds.
Gizmodo reports that new research suggests that
the dense remains of massive stars propel jets of gas and
dust at speeds of hundreds of millions of miles per hour.
Neutron stars are the stellar remains of
some of the densest objects in the universe. .
According to new research, neutron star jets
can travel up to 70,836 miles per hour,
just over one-third the speed of light. .
Relativistic effects like time dilation and length
contraction are believed to occur at speeds
exceeding just one-tenth the speed of light. .
James Miller Jones, , an astrophysicist at Curtin University in
Australia and co-author of the research, .
notes that neutron stars are, "so dense that they can pull material off
the surface of a nearby companion star.".
That gas spirals down onto the surface
of that neutron star where it gets very,
very hot and dense. Once enough of it
builds up nuclear fusion reactions
start to happen on the surface, James Miller Jones, astrophysicist at Curtin University
in Australia and co-author, via 'Gizmodo'.
Using the Australia Telescope Compact Array and the
International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory, researchers found that thermonuclear explosions on
distant stars kickstart these high-speed jet emissions. .
When these explosions occurred, they generated
high-speed jets and bright X-rays which made
it possible for researchers to measure speeds. .
The findings suggest that the staggering
speed of these emissions is close to escape
speed, or the needed velocity for material to
escape the neutron star's gravitational speed. .
Gizmodo reports that the team's results will inform
future models of jet formation and could help reveal
some of the most extreme physics in the universe.

AT&T Confirms Data Breach , Affected 73 Million Customers.
73 million current and former
AT&T customers have had their sensitive
data compromised in a hack that some outlets
say dates back to 2021, Gizmodo reports.
The data, which includes social security numbers, email addresses, birthdates, phone numbers and AT&T account information, .
was located two weeks ago in a data
set released on the dark web.
It's not clear if it was AT&T's systems that were breached or if the information was stolen from one of the company's vendors.
Currently, AT&T does not have evidence
of unauthorized access to its systems
resulting in exfiltration of the data set, AT&T, via statement.
The company is communicating
proactively with those impacted and
will be offering credit monitoring at
our expense where applicable, AT&T, via statement.
As a precaution, AT&T has reset the
passcodes of its current customers. .
The company will be reaching out to customers whose information has been compromised. .
AT&T advises those who are worried about their accounts to monitor activity and credit reports.
