working on a presentation about the manhattan project. will keep adding stuff I find in the web. If you know more/better resources do add here! :) thank you this is just a list of links for now. Will write about it in detail later. From left to right: Kenneth Bainbridge, Joseph Hoffman, Robert Oppenheimer, Louis Hempelmann, Robert Bacher, Victor Weisskopf and Richard Dodson.

Just watched Demis Hassabis on Lex Fridman's channel! Lex always brings on amazing guests, and I love how the internet makes these conversations accessible. Demis Hassabis: Future of AI, Simulating Reality, Physics and Video Games | Lex Fridman Podcast #475 Continuing my Rabbit Hole series that I started with Terence Tao's podcast, I'll share my online journey as I try to understand these complex topics. I'll document all the websites and pages I visit, and since learning is an ongoing process, I'll keep updating my findings. The topics I'll be exploring were generally discussed in the video in the order they appear.(if I missed something cool do tell me) How Far is Video Generation from World Model? https://deepmind.google/models/veo/ https://openai.com/index/video-generation-models-as-world-simulators/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P_versus_NP_problem Protein Folding Thermodynamics and Dynamics: Where Physics, Chemistry, and Biology Meet ATP synthase Introduc...
