MIT engineers develop a magnetic transistor for more energy-efficient electronics

Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it’s a semiconductor, this material can control the flow of electricity in a circuit. But silicon has fundamental physical limits that restrict how compact and energy-efficient a transistor can be.MIT researchers have now replaced silicon with a magnetic semiconductor, creating a magnetic transistor that could enable smaller, faster, and more energy-efficient circuits. The material’s magnetism strongly

Ask HN: Any philosophical books that discuss Consciousness related with LLMs era

Following the article from Ted Chiang from TheAtlantic - Artificial intelligence is not conscious, I was wondering if you could suggest me some philosophical books that treat the subject of language, what is consciousness and ideally has some link to what we face today with LLms.These philosphical books could be hundreds of years old but still be on-point with the current discussion, as I'm more interested to think about the philosophical aspect ("what is consciousness") rather th

Toxic Clumps in Huntington’s Disease May Protect the Brain Too

The findings could lead to new treatments for multiple neurodegenerative diseases. Huntington’s disease is tragically predictable. An inherited genetic mutation causes neurons to make distorted, sticky proteins. These proteins clump together and gradually overwhelm brain cells. The brain loses its ability to learn, remember, and make decisions.This story is dogma in neuroscience. But decades of research and drugs targeting the clumps have had little success. Scientists are now wondering: Is ther
