From Tokyo to Seoul, on to New York, London, Milan and Paris, there

Many of the jobs that keep the world running — like cleaning

Digital twins are enabling scientific innovation - The Economist (No

SCIENTISTS ARE no strangers to computer models. Some of the very first
uses of computers to simulate reality, in fact, were built by
physicists keen to understand the behaviour of subatomic particles,
and meteorologists hoping to predict the weather. Over the 75 or so
intervening years, computer modelling has become an integral part of
scientific practice, informing everything from predictions of climate
change to the monitoring of pandemics.

Why A.I. Isn't Going to Make Art - The New Yorker (No paywall)
[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=57664&nl=daily]
In 1953, Roald Dahl published "The Great Automatic Grammatizator," a
short story about an electrical engineer who secretly desires to be a
writer. One day, after completing construction of the world's fastest
calculating machine, the engineer realizes that "English grammar is
governed by rules that are almost mathematical in their strictness."
He constructs a fiction-writing machine that can produce a
five-thousand-word short story in thirty seconds; a novel takes
fifteen minutes and requires the operator to manipulate handles and
foot pedals, as if he were driving a car or playing an organ, to
regulate the levels of humor and pathos. The resulting novels are so
popular that, within a year, half the fiction published in English is
a product of the engineer's invention.

Buy Experiences instead of Possessions to Build Social Connection -
Scientific American (No paywall) [[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=57664&nl=daily]
The human being is a “social animal,” as Aristotle suggested. We
have a fundamental need to belong. Yet we are living in a time when
the U.S. Surgeon General has warned about an epidemic of loneliness
and isolation. A lack of social connection can have negative
consequences for both our mental and physical health. How, then, might
we encourage the feelings of connectedness that are so integral to our
well-being?

Silicon Valley, strictly speaking, does not exist. Its geographic

to it are oddly placeless. Driving through Menlo Park and Mountain
View, you could be forgiven for thinking you were nowhere at all. What

capital coursing through it. The region is home to more than $14
trillion worth of publicly traded companies, four of which are the
largest on earth. It also includes some number of people who think
Donald Trump should be the next president of the United States.
