“Wooly mice” a test run for mammoth gene editing

On Tuesday, the team behind the plan to bring mammoth-like animals back to the tundra announced the creation of what it is calling wooly mice, which have long fur reminiscent of the woolly mammoth. The long fur was created through the simultaneous editing of as many as seven genes, all with a known connection to hair growth, color, and/or texture. But don’t think that this is a sort of mouse-mammoth hybrid. Most of the genetic changes were first identified in mice, not mammoths. So, the focus is on the fact that the team could do simultaneous editing of multiple genes—something

Understanding User-Agent in Puppeteer – DEV Community

Web automation is a continuous cycle. Websites work to block bots, and bots evolve to stay undetected. If you’re using Puppeteer without adjusting your user-agent, you’re making it easier for websites to identify you.Each browser request includes a user-agent string, a digital identifier that reveals the browser, operating system, and sometimes the device you’re using. Websites use this data to optimize their layouts, serve specific content, and most importantly, detect automated behavior. In this guide, we’ll explore the difference between random and custom user-agents, when to use each, and how to configure them in Puppeteer. Random or Custom User-Agent: Which

Why genAI-powered intelligent document processing is a big deal

With LLMs, the processing can be more dynamic. First, prompts and examples can steer LLMs toward the information extraction goals and help them work around document complexities. Second, the same LLMs can be used for ad hoc querying, and feedback mechanisms can be instrumented to improve the information extractions based on end-user prompts. “The advancement of genAI and LLMs is allowing us to use natural language to describe a desired program, expression, or result, and they are particularly good at extracting data from unstructured and multimodal sources,” says Greg Benson, professor of computer science at the University of San Francisco
