Trying to decide if I want to watch the Washington Post whither away or switch to the Guardian

Found these two items on The Decoder:

• Google has signed its first direct content partnership for an AI chatbot, teaming up with the Associated Press (AP) to feed real-time news into its Gemini system. The deal means change is coming for new publishers if chatbots are successful products.
• The new “Titans” architecture takes inspiration from how human memory works. By combining artificial short and long-term memory through attention blocks and memory MLPs, the system can work with long sequences of information. Titans uses “surprise” as its main memory metric – the more unexpected a piece of information is, the more likely it gets stored in long-term memory. The system also knows when to forget things, helping it use memory space efficiently.

Got the Senate testimony chapter finished yesterday. Today I start working through the analysis. Also, I need to add this to the vignette 1 analysis. And to the slide deck for the talk. Maybe even start with it.
