  High Energy Physics - Exploring...

  High Energy Physics (HEP), also known as particle physics, is the branch of physics that explores the fundamental building blocks of nature and the forces that govern their interactions. It seeks to answer fundamental questions about the universe, such as the nature of matter, the origins of mass, and the unification of forces. By studying subatomic particles at extremely high energies, physicists gain insights into the fundamental laws of nature, often pushing the boundaries of human knowledge. 
  The origins of high energy physics trace back to the early 20th century with the development of quantum mechanics and special relativity. The discovery of the electron, proton, and neutron laid the foundation for the understanding of atomic structure. However, as experimental techniques improved, scientists found that protons and neutrons were not fundamental particles but were composed of even smaller constituents called quarks. This led to the formulation of the Standard Model of Particle Physics, which describes the known fundamental particles and the forces that act between them. 
  High energy physics relies on particle accelerators, which propel charged particles to nearly the speed of light before colliding them. These high-energy collisions create conditions similar to those present in the early universe, allowing scientists to observe rare and exotic particles. The most famous accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, has been instrumental in discoveries such as the Higgs boson, a particle responsible for giving mass to elementary particles.

  Artificial General Intelligence...

  Artificial intelligence surrounds us. More and more of the systems and services you interact with every day are based on AI technology. Most AI is narrowly specific; that is, it can only do a single thing, in a single context. For example, your spellchecker can't do mathematics, and the world's best chess-playing program can’t play Tetris. Human intelligence is different. We can solve a variety of tasks, including those we have not seen before. In Artificial General Intelligence, Julian Togelius explores technical approaches to developing more general artificial intelligence and asks what general AI would mean for human civilization. 
   
   
   
  Togelius starts by giving examples of narrow AI that have superhuman performance in some way. He then discusses what it would mean to have general intelligence, by looking at definitions from psychology, ethology, and computer science. Next, he explores the two main families of technical approaches to developing more general artificial intelligence: foundation models through self-supervised learning, and open-ended learning in virtual environments. The final chapters of the book investigate potential artificial general intelligence beyond the strictly technical aspects. The questions discussed here investigate whether such general AI would be conscious, whether it would pose a risk to humanity, and how it might alter society.
