"Business Insider reported this week that Memvid wants someone to spend eight hours testing and critiquing the memory of popular AI chatbots, effectively paying $100 an hour for what they have branded as a 'professional AI bully' role. The worker's job is to examine where chatbots lose track of details, forget context, or misrepresent data, and then feed those findings back to Memvid so the startup can improve its products. 'You'll spend a full 8-hour day interacting with leading AI chatbots — and your only job is to be brutally honest about how frustrating they are,' the job listing reads."

Some were rechargeable, but most were cheap disposables, and they were able to get a full-size desktop PC running for over half an hour. That wasn't just idling, either, but also some light benchmarking and gaming. The project involved connecting 64 AA batteries together — even using some cribbed wires from old Ethernet cables — and rewiring the project a couple of times to optimize it. After finding the system could only sustain a load on the PC for a couple of minutes at a time, he wired the AA cells to deliver around 25V, reducing the current going through the wiring, then used a trio of voltage regulators to step down the output to 12V before it was connected to the PC. Once that was managed, the system could boot straight to Windows using only battery power." ExtremeTech » Lamprey-inspired suction cup lifts 850 times its own weight "Lampreys are able to stay securely attached to whales and sharks as they hurtle through the ocean, so you'd think they could teach us a thing or two about suction. It turns out that they can indeed, as scientists have developed a lamprey-inspired suction cup that can lift over 800 times its own weight. Lampreys achieve suction via an 'oral disc' consisting of a soft lip around the outside and a ring of teeth on the inside. The teeth dig into the nooks and crannies of the host animal's skin, while the lip forms an airtight, watertight seal." New Atlas » Something is still building (and you've still got a chance) If you saw RAD Intel's $0.85 share price and thought "I'll check it later," you weren't alone. That window closed 3/12. Since then, more than 15,000 investors have joined the round, and over $60M has been committed, while a who's who roster of Fortune 1000 clients continues using RAD's AI to guide campaigns. The early price moved — but the momentum didn't stop. The same company is still building, the same signals are still stacking, and the investor crowd keeps growing. So, are you in? [Ad] Time to decide » How 'fire fungi' help put burnt landscapes back together "Ecologists have long studied how life returns after a devastating wildfire. … Yet in the grand succession of life after a wildfire, the first beings to appear are neither plants nor animals, but fungi. Species of pyrophilous fungi — from Greek for 'fire-loving' — thrive in the burned terrain. Just weeks after a blaze tears through a landscape, swaths of fungal fruiting bodies emerge from the soil to release spores, briefly dominating the otherwise-barren surface." bioGraphics » // Your brain is now searchable.
