Gemini Advanced vs. ChatGPT Plus: Which Is Better?

Gemini Advanced vs. ChatGPT Plus: Which Is Better?

Published by skeptic

ChatGPT and Google Gemini are very capable AI chatbots with a remarkable ability to generate text, code, and images. The free versions do basic tasks well, but the paid versions are even more capable. However, choosing between ChatGPT and Google Gemini isn’t easy, especially as GPT-4 and Gemini Advanced (the premium large language models powering the AI chatbots) perform similarly in several areas. So, how do you choose between ChatGPT Plus and Google Gemini Advanced? User Interface Both have similar user interfaces, using a conversational style. Both entry-level and advanced users will find the UI easy and functional, and there is a striking resemblance between the two. The style of conversing is different, though. ChatGPT outputs one word at a time, whereas Gemini churns out one line at a time. Your liking for either style is a personal choice, but I would like to see a configurable setting for this in the future. As of now, you cannot prompt and change the standard way. If you’re unhappy with the output and want your question answered …

The House advanced its aid package. What does that mean for the future of TikTok?

The House advanced its aid package. What does that mean for the future of TikTok?

Published by skeptic

Last month, the House passed legislation that would force ByteDance, the Chinese-owned parent company of TikTok, to sell the popular app or be banned in the U.S.  The bill was then flipped over to the Senate side, where it has an unclear future.  Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) made waves when he merged an adjusted measure with the $95 billion foreign aid package which easily passed in the lower chamber on Saturday. The measure related to TikTok, tied with the foreign aid package, has a different language than the previous one, which cleared the lower chamber in March.  The new measure one would extend ByteDance’s timeline to sell TikTok, bumping it up from six months to a year, an adjustment that compelled Senate Commerce Committee Chair Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.) to support the bill in the upper chamber. The House passed foreign aid as a four-point bill, but it is being delivered to the Senate as one measure.  What does the future of TikTok look like now? Why do lawmakers want to ban TikTok TikTok has faced …

Advanced nanoplatforms for diagnosis and treatment of osteosarcoma

Advanced nanoplatforms for diagnosis and treatment of osteosarcoma

Published by skeptic

The Nano4Tarmed consortium aims to develop 2D nanoplatforms for active drug delivery, diagnosis and treatment of osteosarcoma. Osteosarcoma, a primary malignant bone tumour, poses a significant challenge in oncology due to its complex pathogenesis and often aggressive nature. Osteosarcoma primarily affects the long bones of adolescents and young adults, thus presenting unique clinical and therapeutic considerations. It accounts for approximately 5% of childhood tumours. More than 50% of these tumours in children and adolescents arise from the long bones around the knee. Osteosarcoma is rarely seen in soft tissue or visceral organs, and there appears to be no difference in presenting symptoms, tumour location, and outcome for younger patients (<12 years) compared with adolescents. As the most common primary bone cancer in children and adolescents, understanding its complexity and evolving treatment strategies is paramount for improving young patient outcomes and their quality of life. Treatment of osteosarcoma Successful osteosarcoma treatment generally requires the combination of effective systemic chemotherapy and complete resection of all clinically detectable diseases. Patients with proven or suspected osteosarcoma must first have …

Cavendish Nuclear shares in new funding for advanced modular reactors

Published by skeptic

Cavendish Nuclear and X-energy have secured funding from the UK government’s Future Nuclear Enabling Fund to develop ‘Xe-100s’ – advanced modular reactors (AMRs) for the UK. The £3.34 million award will be matched by X-energy for a total programme price tag of £6.68 million. This money will go towards the development of UK-specific deployment plans for AMRs, including an assessment of domestic manufacturing and supply chain opportunities, constructability, modularisation studies and fuel management. The two firms are also set to partner with construction group Kier to support constructability and supply chain analyses, joining Sheffield Forgemasters and the Nuclear Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre on the project. Last year, the duo also signed a memorandum of understanding with Howden – the Glasgow-based gas circulation component manufacturer – and will also work with Nuclear Waste Services to review the approach to spent fuel management. Andrew Bowie, minister for nuclear and renewables, said “We’re backing innovation in nuclear – from building large-scale plants better to encouraging new advanced technologies – to achieve our ambition for a quarter of our …
