North Carolina passed a significant test without star forward Caleb Wilson on Monday night, as the No. 18 Tar Heels toppled No. 24 Louisville 77-74. The win improved the Tar Heels (22-6, 10-5 ACC) to 3-1 since Wilson suffered a fractured hand in a Feb. 10 loss at Miami. Between the uncertainty around Wilson’s potential return and a subsequent injury to starting center Henri Veesaar, UNC’s trajectory seemed uncertain less than a week ago. Those concerns were laid bare in blowout loss at NC State on Feb. 17.But Veessar’s return in Saturday’s win at Syracuse, Monday night’s victory over a quality ACC…

Did you know that there’s a way of using outputs from LLMs that may involve no hacking—essentially just taking large quantities of text and repurposing it as training data—that upsets AI companies a great deal? In a blog post on Monday, Anthropic said that the China-based AI companies DeepSeek, Moonshot, and MiniMax broke Anthropic’s rules in order to “illicitly extract” the capabilities of its signature AI model, Claude. Distillation is a normal practice used by AI companies in which a “teacher” model is prompted with specifically tailored inputs, and the answers provided allow a “student” model to rapidly improve.

NEW DELHI: Former Pakistan fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar slammed India’s bowling attack after their heavy 76-run loss to South Africa in the T20 World Cup Super 8 match. He said the defeat exposed how fragile India’s bowling unit is, especially against strong batting line-ups like the Proteas.Akhtar was particularly critical of Hardik Pandya and Shivam Dube, who gave away 67 runs in six overs for just one wicket. He felt they lacked pace and intimidation, and that using them in the death overs was a tactical mistake. “Hardik and Shivam Dube were bowling at around 120 kmph. It’s not as…

Charles Bediako is once again attempting to return to play for No. 17 Alabama. According to AL.com, the former Crimson Tide center filed an appeal to the Alabama Supreme Court on Monday, two weeks after a Tuscaloosa County circuit court judge denied Bediako’s motion seeking a preliminary injunction against NCAA eligibility rules.While Bediako’s appeal is pending, he’s seeking “interim injunctive relief” that would allow him to play immediately.”The request is to put an injunction in place while the Alabama Supreme Court considers the substance of our argument as to why we believe the Circuit Court’s order was incorrect,” David Holt, one of…

The creators of Dark Sky, who sold their popular weather app to Apple in March 2020, are back with a new take on weather forecasting.
