Artificial neural networks are super cool. They are known for all sorts of computational prowesses, and they also happen to model brain processes quite well. Among artificial neural networks, there are recurrent neural networks (RNNs), which contain a pool of interconnected neurons, whose activity evolves over time. These networks can be trained to perform all sorts of cognitive tasks, and they exhibit activity patterns that are quite similar to what is observed in many brain areas... [ Read more ]

Pavel Durov, a billionaire who embraces an all-black wardrobe and is often compared to the character Neo from "the Matrix," funds Telegram through his personal wealth and debt financing. And despite being one of the world's most popular tech companies, Telegram reportedly has only about 30 employees who defer to Durov for most major decisions about the platform. So, uh, whenever I hear about Telegram, it’s always in relation to something bad. What gives? "There are several million Russians who can lift their head up from propaganda and try to look for other sources, and I'd say that most look for it on Telegram," he said. "There are a lot of things that Telegram could have been doing this whole time. And they know exactly what they are and they've chosen not to do them. That's why I don't trust them," she said.
