Geoffrey Hinton says he doesn’t regret the work he did that laid the foundation for artificial intelligence, but wishes he thought of safety sooner. The British-Canadian computer scientist says the technology has now progressed so fast that he thinks it could achieve superintelligence in the next five to 20 years. Superintelligence is intelligence that surpasses even the smartest humans. When superintelligence happens, Hinton says humanity will have to seriously worry about how it can stay in control. His remarks came at a press conference in Stockholm, where Hinton is due to a receive the Nobel Prize in psychics on Tuesday. Hinton and co-laureate John Hopfield are being given the prize because they developed some of the underpinnings of machine learning, a computer science that helps AI mimic how humans learn.

Hong Kong's startup ecosystem has been steadily maturing in recent years, leading to a surge in early-stage firms with significant potential. According to the latest statistics from Invest Hong Kong (InvestHK), the number of startups in the city reached a record high of 4,694 this year, a 10% increase compared to last year and approximately 40% more than in 2020. Growth has been particularly strong in the health and medical sector, and in the sustainable technology/green technology sector. Startups are also making a substantial contribution to the labour market. In 2024, they employed nearly 18,000 people, reflecting a 7% year-on-year increase and growth of around 65% since 2020. Director-General of Investment Promotion Alpha Lau said that the startup sector's robust growth can be attributed to proactive government measures aimed at supporting its development. “The Hong Kong Government has spent a lot of effort to promote emerging sectors and emerging companies, resulting in remarkable growth in the total number of startups.” One local fintech startup, Riverchain, was established two years ago and provides a digital financing platform for the construction industry. The company highlighted that Hong Kong's well-established financial infrastructure has been instrumental to its development. Riverchain Chief Executive Officer Ben Wong remarked: “Hong Kong was very strategic to our growth. We want to be more than just a Hong Kong company, we want to be an international company. Hong Kong provides us with a strategic location, just a four-hour ride to Southeast Asia.” Mr Wong emphasised the quality of talent in Hong Kong, stating that it is among the best in the world, offering a reliable pool of highly skilled and knowledgeable individuals. One emerging segment in Hong Kong's innovation landscape is femtech, which focuses on technology solutions for women's health. One startup in this area, Femtech Future, is a consulting firm that assists other femtech startups. The company's founder and CEO, Maaike Steinebach, stated: “Hong Kong has an amazing entrepreneurial ecosystem, so firstly it is very easy to set up your company here. It took me about a week to set it up – the company secretariat and accountants are readily available. There are also amazing co-working spaces, making it convenient for a startup like me.” In the coming year, InvestHK will continue to engage with companies around the world through its 34 global offices. The department aims to provide potential investors and businesses in the Mainland and overseas with the latest information about Hong Kong's business environment, encouraging them to set up or expand their operations in the city. InvestHK is also focused on enhancing its investment promotion capabilities by expanding its overseas network, particularly in countries along the Belt & Road Initiative.

"It's the way you want to draw it up every year." The Hershey Bears' 2023-24 season featured a storybook ending when Matt Strome scored the goal 66 seconds into overtime that clinched the club's record 13th Calder Cup championship and ended a wild Game 6 against the Coachella Valley Firebirds in front of a home crowd that packed the Giant Center. Hershey had also beaten Coachella Valley in the 2023 Calder Cup Final and lifted the trophy in back-to-back seasons for the first time since 2009-10. Before the historic celebration on the Giant Center ice in June, the Bears had weathered adversity on their path to another title. They lost a handful of players, notably defensemen, to injury on their playoff run, and in the Eastern Conference Finals, a comfortable 3-0 lead against the Cleveland Monsters slipped into a tense winner-take-all Game 7 in Hershey. But the Bears answered each time. Garrett Roe punched in the game-winning goal in Game 7 of the Eastern Final, and Hershey's defense, backstopped by goaltender Hunter Shepard, held off the high-powered Coachella Valley attack just enough to give the Bears an edge. Hershey's postseason run piggybacked a thrilling regular season that featured another record-setting Teddy Bear Toss and the best record in the club's 86-year history, one win shy of the AHL record. In the final week of the 2024 calendar year, the Bears — hunting for a threepeat — sat atop the Atlantic Division standings. Tim Gross is the sports editor at The Sentinel and cumberlink.com .

VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) — Brayden Point scored twice and added two assists, and the Tampa Bay Lightning edged the Vancouver Canucks 4-2 on Sunday. Nikita Kucherov had a goal and two helpers for the Lightning, while Jake Guentzel scored on a power play late in the third period. Captain Quinn Hughes and Kiefer Sherwood found the back of the net for the Canucks. Tampa Bay’s Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped 22 of the 24 shots he faced and Kevin Lankinen made 28 saves for Vancouver. Takeaways Lightning: Kucherov, who returned to the lineup Sunday after missing two games with a lower-body injury, added another potent piece to Tampa’s red-hot power play. The Lightning were 2 for 4 with the man advantage and scored a power-play goal for the sixth straight game. Canucks: Hughes took a stick to the face 55 seconds into the game, missed more than 11 minutes, then returned to open the scoring 16:08 into the first period. It was the 50th goal of the defenseman’s career and extended his points streak to seven games with three goals and 10 assists across the stretch. Key moment Tampa took the lead 6:29 into the second when Kucherov sliced a pass to Point at the bottom of the faceoff circle and the Lightning winger blasted it in past Lankinen for his 17th of the season. Kucherov put the visitors on the board just a minute and 49 seconds earlier.

The chief executive of healthcare technology firm Harrison.ai has moved to dismiss privacy concerns about his start-up, describing them as a misunderstanding as it plots an expansion into the lucrative US market. Harrison.ai gives radiologists and pathologists access to AI technology so they can more efficiently and accurately scan X-rays for cancers and illnesses. The Sydney start-up has already raised more than $150 million to pursue its stated goal of saving a million lives a day by 2025. Dimitry (left) and Aengus Tran. Credit: Louie Douvis An investigation by online publication Crikey has alleged that Harrison.ai trained its flagship product, Annalise.ai, using scans of potentially hundreds of thousands of Australians obtained by radiology provider I-MED seemingly without express consent from patients. Speaking in an interview with this masthead, Aengus Tran, who founded the company in 2018 with his brother Dimitry, said those concerns were a “misunderstanding” and that his start-up anonymises patient data to the extent it cannot be re-identified. “I think, from the outside, maybe people made an assumption that we are processing personal information,” Aengus Tran said. “A picture of your face is very different to a chest X-ray and a diagnostic report that has been anonymised and de-identified. We have a really robust anonymisation and data-protection pipeline, where data is completely stripped of personal information, and [we have] gone through quite great lengths to ensure that it cannot be re-identified. “That helps us meet the requirement of the Privacy Act and therefore enables our use of data to be fully permissible within the bounds of that act. The Privacy Act actually makes it very clear that if you thoroughly anonymise and de-identify the patient, data is no longer considered personal information.” I-MED has also published a statement calling the reports “inaccurate”. “I-MED de-identified data using best practice frameworks developed by the CSIRO and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner,” it said. Anxiety and discussion around how artificial intelligence technologies treat customer privacy has spiked since Australia’s privacy commissioner, Carly Kind, found that retailer Bunnings had breached privacy laws with facial recognition systems that it used to combat crime.WASHINGTON — Donald Trump said he can’t guarantee that his promised tariffs on key U.S. foreign trade partners won’t raise prices for American consumers and he suggested once more that some political rivals and federal officials who pursued legal cases against him should be imprisoned. The president-elect, in a wide-ranging interview with NBC’s “Meet the Press” that aired Sunday, also touched on monetary policy, immigration, abortion and health care, and U.S. involvement in Ukraine, Israel and elsewhere. Trump often mixed declarative statements with caveats, at one point cautioning “things do change.” A look at some of the issues covered: Trump hems on whether trade penalties could raise prices Trump has threatened broad trade penalties, but said he didn’t believe economists’ predictions that added costs on those imported goods for American companies would lead to higher domestic prices for consumers. He stopped short of a pledge that U.S. an households won’t be paying more as they shop. “I can’t guarantee anything. I can’t guarantee tomorrow,” Trump said, seeming to open the door to accepting the reality of how import levies typically work as goods reach the retail market. That’s a different approach from Trump’s typical speeches throughout the 2024 campaign, when he framed his election as a sure way to curb inflation. In the interview, Trump defended tariffs generally, saying that tariffs are “going to make us rich.” He has pledged that, on his first day in office in January, he would impose 25% tariffs on all goods imported from Mexico and Canada unless those countries satisfactorily stop illegal immigration and the flow of illegal drugs such as fentanyl into the United States. He also has threatened tariffs on China to help force that country to crack down on fentanyl production. ”All I want to do is I want to have a level, fast, but fair playing field,” Trump said. Trump suggests retribution for his opponents while claiming no interest in vengeance He offered conflicting statements on how he would approach the justice system after winning election despite being convicted of 34 felonies in a New York state court and being indicted in other cases for his handling of national security secrets and efforts to overturn his 2020 loss to Democrat Joe Biden. “Honestly, they should go to jail,” Trump said of members of Congress who investigated the Capitol riot by his supporters who wanted him to remain in power. The president-elect underscored his contention that he can use the justice system against others, including special prosecutor Jack Smith, who led the case on Trump’s role in the siege on Jan. 6, 2021. Trump confirmed his plan to pardon supporters who were convicted for their roles in the riot, saying he would take that action on his first day in office. As for the idea of revenge driving potential prosecutions, Trump said: “I have the absolute right. I’m the chief law enforcement officer, you do know that. I’m the president. But I’m not interested in that.” At the same time, Trump singled out lawmakers on a special House committee who had investigated the insurrection, citing Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., and former Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo. “Cheney was behind it ... so was Bennie Thompson and everybody on that committee,” Trump said. Asked specifically whether he would direct his administration to pursue cases, he said, “No,” and suggested he did not expect the FBI to quickly undertake investigations into his political enemies. But at another point, Trump said he would leave the matter up to Pam Bondi, his pick as attorney general. “I want her to do what she wants to do,” he said. Such threats, regardless of Trump’s inconsistencies, have been taken seriously enough by many top Democrats that Biden is considering issuing blanket, preemptive pardons to protect key members of his outgoing administration. Trump did seemingly back off his campaign rhetoric calling for Biden to be investigated, saying, “I’m not looking to go back into the past.” Swift action on immigration is coming Trump repeatedly mentioned his promises to seal the U.S.-Mexico border and deport millions of people who are in the U.S. illegally through a mass deportation program. “I think you have to do it,” he said. He suggested he would try to use executive action to end “birthright” citizenship under which people born in the U.S. are considered citizens — although such protections are spelled out in the Constitution. Asked specifically about the future for people who were brought into the country illegally as children and have been shielded from deportation in recent years, Trump said, “I want to work something out,” indicating he might seek a solution with Congress. But Trump also said he does not “want to be breaking up families” of mixed legal status, “so the only way you don’t break up the family is you keep them together and you have to send them all back.” Trump commits to NATO, with conditions, and waffles on Putin and Ukraine Long a critic of NATO members for not spending more on their own defense, Trump said he “absolutely” would remain in the alliance “if they pay their bills.” Pressed on whether he would withdraw if he were dissatisfied with allies’ commitments, Trump said he wants the U.S. treated “fairly” on trade and defense. He waffled on a NATO priority of containing Russia and President Vladimir Putin. Trump suggested Ukraine should prepare for less U.S. aid in its defense against Putin’s invasion. “Possibly. Yeah, probably. Sure,” Trump said of reducing Ukraine assistance from Washington. Separately, Trump has called for an immediate ceasefire. Asked about Putin, Trump said initially that he has not talked to the Russian leader since Election Day last month, but then hedged: “I haven’t spoken to him recently.” Trump said when pressed, adding that he did not want to “impede the negotiation.” Trump says Powell is safe at the Fed, but not Wray at the FBI The president-elect said he has no intention, at least for now, of asking Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell to step down before Powell’s term ends in 2028. Trump said during the campaign that presidents should have more say in Fed policy, including interest rates. Trump did not offer any job assurances for FBI Director Christopher Wray, whose term is to end in 2027. Asked about Wray, Trump said: “Well, I mean, it would sort of seem pretty obvious” that if the Senate confirms Kash Patel as Trump’s pick for FBI chief, then “he’s going to be taking somebody’s place, right? Somebody is the man that you’re talking about.” Trump is absolute about Social Security, not so much on abortion and health insurance Trump promised that the government efficiency effort led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will not threaten Social Security. “We’re not touching Social Security, other than we make it more efficient,” he said. He added that “we’re not raising ages or any of that stuff.” He was not so specific about abortion or his long-promised overhaul of the Affordable Care Act. On abortion, Trump continued his inconsistencies and said he would “probably” not move to restrict access to the abortion pills that now account for a majority of pregnancy terminations, according to the Guttmacher Institute, which supports abortion rights. But pressed on whether he would commit to that position, Trump replied, “Well, I commit. I mean, are — things do — things change. I think they change.” Reprising a line from his Sept. 10 debate against Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump again said he had “concepts” of a plan to substitute for the 2010 Affordable Care Act, which he called “lousy health care.” He added a promise that any Trump version would maintain insurance protections for Americans with preexisting health conditions. He did not explain how such a design would be different from the status quo or how he could deliver on his desire for “better health care for less money.”What would happen minute-by-minute if a SUPERFLARE with the force of billions of atomic bombs hit Earth

BREAKING NEWS Premier League release statement after Brighton star Joao Pedro incredibly ESCAPES a red card after vicious elbow throw which missed opponent by inches Joao Pedro was lucky not to get sent off in Brighton's 0-0 draw vs Brentford Pedro escaped red after he tried to elbow Yehor Yarmoliuk in the face LISTEN NOW : It's All Kicking Off! New formation, some new faces, but the optimism has gone at Old Trafford By AADAM PATEL Published: 21:34, 27 December 2024 | Updated: 22:04, 27 December 2024 e-mail 25 shares 1 View comments Joao Pedro was fortunate not to get sent off after he tried to elbow Yehor Yarmoliuk in the face but failed to make contact as Brighton’s December pain went on in a goalless draw against Brentford. On the pitch, referee Andy Madley deemed there was no violent conduct and after a lengthy stoppage to check for a possible red card, Chris Kavanagh on VAR duty deemed that Madley’s call was not a clear and obvious error despite replays clearly showing Pedro lashing out at the Brentford midfielder. With 15 minutes to go, Yarmoliuk dragged back Pedro to stop a Brighton attack but the forward’s frustrations boiled over as he attempted to elbow him in response. Yarmoliuk was booked for the foul but Pedro didn’t even get a yellow card for his actions, with Kavanagh determining there was no violent conduct as Pedro didn’t make contact. The Premier League were quick to release a statement regarding the incident via X which read: 'The referee’s call of no red card to João Pedro for violent conduct was checked and confirmed by VAR, who deemed the referee’s call was not clearly and obviously wrong.' Brighton 's December pain went on as they wasted an array of chances in a goalless draw against Brentford , that made it six games without a win for Fabian Hurzeler’s side. Joao Pedro was fortunate not to get sent off after he tried to elbow Yehor Yarmoliuk Referee Andy Madley deemed there was no violent conduct after Yarmoliuk dragged back Pedro to stop a Brighton attack Since their last victory on November 23, the Seagulls have plummeted from second to mid-table and week by week, the absence of Danny Welbeck - out with an ankle injury - is proving crucial. This should have been the ideal game for Brighton against a Brentford side that went into this clash on the south coast with just one point on the road all season. Brighton were wasteful from the outset with Julio Enciso having eight attempts on goal in the first half alone - the last Premier League player to do that was Luis Suarez in 2013. In the 4th minute, Enciso hit the post after Brighton’s high press caught Mark Flekken out and minutes later, the Dutch keeper was forced to make a diving stop to deny Carlos Baleba. Enciso then blew another golden opportunity heading straight into Flekken’s hands but two minutes later, Brentford had the ball in the net after a ruthless counter. Yoane Wissa showed Enciso how to finish with a superb strike that beat Bart Verbruggen and had the away dugout out of their seats but VAR showed he was marginally offside. It was a warning for Brighton, who came close again with Flekken saving from Brajan Grada, Enciso and Matt O’Riley. Yoane Wissa thought he scored the game opener but it was ruled out for offside In the 36th minute, Flekken was forced off with a hamstring injury after keeping out Mitoma’s cross with his right foot, and replaced by Hakon Valdimarsson, who made his Premier League debut. Flekken made six saves in a busy first-half and Brighton looked to test his Icelandic replacement’s confidence early on with O’Riley and Kaoru Mitoma both having a go from distance while Enciso’s evening was summed up by a shot that almost went out for a throw-in. The 20-year-old’s last goal - which won Premier League goal of the season - came in May 2023, Despite Brighton having 15 attempts to Brentford’s two in an opening 45 which the home side dominated, it was goalless at the break. Enciso continued to get in dangerous positions in the second-half though lacked composure in front of goal and with Brighton failing to make their dominance count, Hurzeler’s frustration grew on the touchline. He made a triple change in the 66th minute before replacing Enciso with Georginio Rutter in the 78th minute. At the other end, Thomas Frank’s side looked to nick the three points but Verbruggen saved comfortably from Wissa on the counter, before keeping out Mikkel Damsgaard’s strike. There was time late on for Yasin Ayari to blaze over on a frustrating night for the home fans, where their lack of a finisher - with Joao Pedro having a tough evening and Evan Ferguson out due to injury - cost them three points. Enciso continued to get in dangerous positions in the second-half for The Seagulls though lacked composure in front of goal Hurzeler turned to Solly March, who came on in the dying stages for the first time since rupturing his cruciate ligament in October 2023 and the 30-year-old got the biggest reception of the night but there was no time for a festive miracle, as his last gasp effort flew over. For the travelling Brentford fans however, it was a late Christmas present in the form of a rare point on the road.
