Rosetta Neurons: “Certain visual concepts and structures are inherently embedded in the natural world and can be learned by different models regardless of the specific task or architecture, and without the use of semantic labels.” https://yossigandelsman.github.io/rosetta_neurons/

Seeing the World through Your Eyes: "By imaging the eyes of a moving person, we can collect multiple views of a scene outside the camera's direct line-of-sight through the reflections in the eyes. In this paper, we reconstruct a 3D scene beyond the camera's line-of-sight using portrait images containing eye reflections." https://world-from-eyes.github.io/
“Instead of compiling human-written programs into Transformers, we design a modified Transformer that can be trained using gradient-based optimization and then be automatically converted into a discrete, human-readable program.” https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.01128

“Scientists have created synthetic human embryos using stem cells, in a groundbreaking advance that sidesteps the need for eggs or sperm…it is not yet clear whether these structures have the potential to continue maturing beyond the earliest stages of development...The synthetic embryos grown from mouse cells were reported to appear almost identical to natural embryos. But when they were implanted into the wombs of female mice, they did not develop into live animals…it is not clear whether the barrier to more advanced development is merely technical or has a more fundamental biological cause.” https://www.theguardian.com/science/2023/jun/14/synthetic-human-embryos-created-in-groundbreaking-advance

"the Nazis hating intelligence testing—in large part because they worried that it would favor the Jews. They preferred the study and measurement of traits they believed Germans would fare better in, such as what they described as 'practical intelligence.'" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B2RRP1ZZ
