Aqara is introducing a new presence sensor that is a natural addition for HomeKit users who want reliable automations without the need for a camera. The new Aqara FP300 combines mmWave presence sensing with a traditional PIR sensor and also adds on light, temperature, and humidity readings. For Apple users, the big story is Thread and Matter support, allowing it to easily integrate with the Home app for fast, room-aware automations. HomeKit Weekly is a series focused on smart home accessories, automation tips and tricks, and everything to do with Apple’s smart home framework. What makes FP300 interesting for HomeKit…

I am a creative. What I do is alchemy. It is a mystery. I do not so much do it, as let it be done through me. I am a creative. Not all creative people like this label. Not all see themselves this way. Some creative people see science in what they do. That is their truth, and I respect it. Maybe I even envy them, a little. But my process is different—my being is different. Apologizing and qualifying in advance is a distraction. That’s what my brain does to sabotage me. I set it aside for now. I can…

French startup Ÿnsect shot into the spotlight when “Iron Man” star Robert Downey Jr. touted its merits on the “Late Show” during Super Bowl weekend 2021. Now, nearly four years later, the insect farming company has been placed into judicial liquidation — essentially bankruptcy — for insolvency.  The company’s demise is hardly a surprise, as Ÿnsect had been embattled for months. Still, there is plenty to unpack about how a startup can go bankrupt despite raising over $600 million, including from Downey Jr.’s FootPrint Coalition, taxpayers, and many others. Ultimately, Ÿnsect failed to fulfill its ambition to “revolutionize the food…

LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) is a new technique for fine tuning large scale pre-trained models. Such models are usually trained on general domain data, so as to have the maximum amount of data. In order to obtain better results in tasks like chatting or question answering, these models can be further ‘fine-tuned’ or adapted on domain specific data. It’s possible to fine-tune a model just by initializing the model with the pre-trained weights and further training on the domain specific data. With the increasing size of pre-trained models, a full forward and backward cycle requires a large amount of computing resources.…

Data collaboration is the backbone of modern AI innovation, especially as organizations collaborate with external partners to unlock new insights. However, data privacy and intellectual property protection remain major challenges in enabling collaboration while safeguarding sensitive data.To bridge this gap, customers across industries are using Databricks Clean Rooms to run shared analysis on sensitive data and enable privacy-first collaboration.We have compiled below the 10 most frequently asked questions about Clean Rooms. These cover what Clean Rooms are, how they protect data and IP, how they work across clouds and platforms, and what it takes to get started. Let’s jump in.1.…

It’s the screen you never want to see. Something is seriously wrong with your phone. Or is it? You might not have a broken phone at all. Instead, you might have a hacked phone. Source: Mobile Hacker What you see above is a form of scareware, an attack that frightens you into thinking your device is broken or infected with a virus. What the hacker wants you to do next is panic. They want you to tap on a bogus link that says it’ll run a security check, remove a virus, or otherwise fix your phone before the problem gets…

When Amazon’s MGM Studios filmed the second season of the Prime Video series “Fallout,” it substituted the diesel generators traditionally used to electrify movie and television productions with a network of solar-powered trailers. The technology, Solar Ring, from GreenLite Trailers, provided 4,952 kilowatt-hours of electricity to 14 trailers in the production’s central basecamp over a 20-week trial. Elsewhere in the U.K., Amazon uses hydrogen fuel technology to charge mobile batteries on sets, reducing the need for diesel generators in places where the Solar Ring wouldn’t make sense. “Film productions can’t plug all of their lights and equipment into house power…
