    バージニア州ラングレーの米中央情報局(CIA)本部の敷地内に荘厳な彫刻「クリプトス」が設置されて以来35年間、アマチュアもプロの暗号学者たちもその暗号の解読を試みてきた。彫刻は暗号文が刻まれた4つのパネルで構成され、そのうち3つは1990年代にCIA、米国家安全保障局(NSA)、ランド研究所のコンピューター科学者がそれぞれ解読に成功した。しかし、「K4」と呼ばれる4つめのパネルはさらに複雑な技術で暗号化されており、いまだ解読されていない。 謎が未解明であることが、何千人もの挑戦者をいっそう夢中にさせている。解読できたと考える人が出るたび、ジム・サンボーンに解答の確認を求める連絡がいく。サンボーンはこの彫刻を制作したアーティストであり、暗号の答えを知る唯一の人物である。最近はそんな連絡の頻度が上がってきた。そしてサンボーンは苛立ちを募らせている──ただし、あなたの想像とはおそらく違う理由で。 「解読に成功しました」とAIは言う...

Among Trump's zillion executive orders, one aims to evaporate government "information silos." If he gets his way on this, your privacy might be evaporated as well. PS the order demands that he consolidates the stuff about you held by states as well. https://t.co/hXvML7SfdE

My deep dive into Anthropic, formed by idealistic OpenAI defectors who believe they can achieve AGI safely. They are doomers and Utopians at the same time. Their most important collaborator is also their product: Claude. https://t.co/dtP8WMc9aH

At 30, Yahoo is still alive. I spoke with CEO Jim Lanzone to make sense of its purple haze of a history, check out his turnaround plans, and look at its future. https://t.co/PdFHnnwtHk
