Google's Paper Assistant tries to automate the error-detection part of scientific review.
The system optimizes for finding errors and reviewing manuscripts rather than generating science, which is the inverted target most reasoning work skips.
If most papers are partly machine-written and the reviewer is also a machine, the human is squeezed out of both ends, and quality becomes whatever two models agree on.
Towards Automating Scientific Review with Google's Paper Assistant Tool
Paper:
Today, the FCC banned the import and sale of new foreign-made advanced robots — humanoids, quadrupeds, and autonomous mobile robots — along with foreign-made connected power inverters, citing "unacceptable risks" to U.S. national security.
This is one of the strongest technology-security actions in modern U.S. history. The message is unambiguous: robotics is a technology America must lead and own — and foreign-subsidized robots will not be allowed to unfairly dominate U.S. robotics as they did solar.
As America's largest AI-native industrial robot manufacturer by units shipped, Standard Bots strongly supports this move. We have advocated for exactly this kind of action in recent sessions with the White House and in Congressional testimony.
But there's unfinished business. Today's action expressly exempts fixed industrial robot arms — the exact machines being installed next to American workers on American factory floors, and the exact category foreign manufacturers are racing to dominate. The same logic applies to them: a robot arm is a networked, sensing, actuated system, and its inverters are where electricity and intelligence become motion. If you can't trust the components, you can't trust the robot. This combined with foreign market manipulation / subsidies does not provide for a fair playing field for US companies. This gap should be closed.
Standard Bots designs and builds our own drives — the inverters that convert DC power into precise robotic motion — on our own circuit board line at our flagship facility in Glen Cove, NY. We design virtually all our own parts and assemble every final robot ourselves.
We need to build American robots and put them to work in American factories. This transformative technology can revitalize our manufacturing base and create millions of new jobs. Today's action is a massive step. Closing the industrial-arm gap is the next one.
Let's keep going.
CORRECTION: we initially misread the inverter language as banning motor controllers in stationary robots too, but a CAN/EtherCAT connection would not count as connected (/wireless) so now believe that interpretation was wrong. Reposted with correction above.
The Last Sector Standing!
Tech is the only thing keeping the indices up near ATH right now (a very different story than June and July).
Since their respective all time highs -
Industrials: -11%
Utilities: -17%
Healthcare: -5%
Staples: -11%
Materials: -11%
Financials: -9%
Discretionary: -13%
Real Estate: -12%
Communications: -8%
Energy: -5%
S&P 500 Equal Weight is now down -7%, finally inverting the divergence with S&P 500, which is only down -2%.
What typically happens next? Does the rest of the market rally to meet the dominant sector or will Tech finally fall too? 👉🏼
I will be swinging more $SPY / $QQQ calls IF we invert the daily… ____ On $ES
Finish the sentence. My real followers should know this. And it’s setting up to print hard..
