ChatGPT lucha por responder preguntas médicas, según una nueva investigación

Published Thu, 26 Dec 2024 18:49:32 GMT

(CNN) —  Es posible que ChatGPT no sea la panacea para las respuestas a preguntas médicas, sugiere un nuevo estudio.Los investigadores de la Universidad de Long Island plantearon 39 consultas relacionadas con medicamentos a la versión gratuita del chatbot de inteligencia artificial, todas las cuales eran preguntas reales del servicio de información sobre medicamentos de la Facultad de Farmacia de la universidad. Luego, las respuestas del software se compararon con las respuestas escritas y revisadas por farmacéuticos capacitados.El estudio encontró que ChatGPT proporcionó respuestas precisas a solo unas 10 de las preguntas, o aproximadamente una cuarta parte del total. Para las otras 29 preguntas, las respuestas estaban incompletas o inexactas, o no respondían a las preguntas.Los hallazgos fueron presentados el martes en la reunión anual de la Sociedad Estadounidense de Farmacéuticos de Sistemas de Salud en Anaheim, California.ChatGPT, el chatbot de IA experimental de OpenAI, ...

Following a Florida Front

Published Thu, 26 Dec 2024 18:49:32 GMT

Another front is on the move and is set to reach South Florida tonight, ushering in another drop in temperatures, although this one won’t be as significant.Ahead of the front, expect a mix of sun and clouds for our Sunday with warm and more humid conditions. Highs will top off into the mid 80s with a 30% chance for rain late in the day.The greater chance for rain will occur tonight as the front approaches, with scattered showers and thunderstorms possible late. Not everybody will see the rain but the areas that do see it should just see one brief round of it and then it should clear out offshore. The most likely timing for this rain looks to be between 7PM and midnight today.Then behind that front will be milder and less humid air for our Monday with highs only in the mid 70s followed by cooler morning lows Tuesday morning into the low to mid 60s. It will be a brief cool down, through, as temperatures return to near-average by Wednesday and lasting through the rest of the week...

Patriots-Steelers film review: Did Bailey Zappe prove something in Pittsburgh?

Published Thu, 26 Dec 2024 18:49:32 GMT

Believe it or not, there were signs in that sad, rain-soaked, shutout loss to the Chargers.Signs of a stirring deep passing game. Of improved pass protection. Of an offense that might one day meander back to the end zone after making one such trip in its last three games.Then the Patriots made that trek three times Thursday night, all in the first half. Bailey Zappe posted a sparkling 115.2 passer rating and matched Mac Jones for the season when he hit his fourth deep pass on the year. Zappe also became the first Patriots quarterback to throw three touchdown passes in a first half since Tom Brady in 2018.How much of that is sustainable moving forward, especially in light of a scoreless second half? Likely not much.Zappe’s leading receiver, JuJu Smith-Schuster, earned more than 40% of his season-high 90 yards on a low-percentage contested catch. Ezekiel Elliott caught seven passes for the first time in two years. Zappe also peaked with his offensive line, which allowed a season...

Major changes to US immigration policy are under discussion. What are they and what could they mean?

Published Thu, 26 Dec 2024 18:49:32 GMT

WASHINGTON (AP) — Congress is discussing changes to the immigration system in exchange for providing money to Ukraine in its fight against Russia and Israel for the war with Hamas.President Joe Biden has said he is willing to make “significant compromises on the border” to meet Republican demands that the assistance be tied to an overhaul of U.S border policy.Republicans say the record numbers of migrants crossing the southern border pose a security threat because authorities cannot adequately screen all the migrants and that those who enter the United States are straining the country’s resources. GOP lawmakers also say they cannot justify to their constituents sending billions of dollars to other countries, even in a time of war, while failing to address the border at home.But many immigration advocates, including some Democrats, say some of the changes being proposed would gut protections for people who desperately need help and would not really ease the chaos at the border.Much o...

West African leaders acknowledge little progress in their push for democracy in coup-hit region

Published Thu, 26 Dec 2024 18:49:32 GMT

ABUJA, Nigeria (AP) — In a renewed push for respect for democracy in coup-hit West Africa, leaders from across the region kicked off a crucial meeting in Nigeria on Sunday and acknowledged for the first time that their efforts to stem the tide of coups have so far met with little success.The 15-nation regional bloc, ECOWAS, has unsuccessfully tried to restore political stability across the entire West and Central Africa which has recorded eight military takeovers since 2020, including in Niger and Gabon. In the past month, the governments of Sierra Leone and Guinea-Bissau have also described their country’s political crises as attempted coups.Despite sanctions and other efforts by ECOWAS to reverse the coups, Niger has consolidated its grip on power while the military governments of Mali and Burkina Faso have stopped collaborating with the bloc on their countries’ transition to civilian rule, ECOWAS commission president Omar Alieu Touray told the 64th ordinary session of the b...

A gigantic new ICBM will take US nuclear missiles out of the Cold War-era but add 21st-century risks

Published Thu, 26 Dec 2024 18:49:32 GMT

F.E. WARREN AIR FORCE BASE, Wyo. (AP) — The control stations for America’s nuclear intercontinental ballistic missiles have a sort of 1980s retro look, with computing panels in sea foam green, bad lighting and chunky control switches, including a critical one that says “launch.” Those underground capsules are about to be demolished and the missile silos they control will be completely overhauled. A new nuclear missile is coming, a gigantic ICBM called the Sentinel. It’s the largest cultural shift in the land leg of the Air Force’s nuclear missile mission in 60 years. But there are questions as to whether some of the Cold War-era aspects of the Minuteman missiles that the Sentinel will replace should be changed. Making the silo-launched missile more modern, with complex software and 21st-century connectivity across a vast network, may also mean it’s more vulnerable. The Sentinel will need to be well protected from cyberattacks, while its technology will have to cope...
