J&P political news.

SRINAGAR: Political temperature in Kashmir picked up
again on Wednesday with indications from the PDP
camp that the party is open to a tie-up with BJP to form
a government in Jammu & Kashmir.
Early in the day, PDP president Mehbooba Mufti met J&K
Governor NN Vohra and told him her party was not
averse to an alliance with BJP in the face of a "decisive"
but "divisive and challenging" mandate. BJP's special
observer to J&K, Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, has
already had a discussion with PDP patriarch Mufti
Mohammed Sayeed.
In what is perceived as an indication of things getting
back on track, Sayeed left Srinagar for the snow resort
of Gulmarg on Wednesday to usher in the new year. J&K
polls had thrown up a fractured mandate with PDP
coming on top with 28 seats in the 87-strong assembly,
and BJP emerging No. 2 with 25 seats. Political
observers have been predicting a PDP-BJP alliance that
would also bridge the demographic divide — most of
PDP's seats are from Kashmir Valley while all of BJP
seats are from Jammu — but the party was cautious that
an alliance with the saffron camp would go against it in
the long run in this Muslim-majority state.
In her meeting with the Governor, Mehbooba Mufti
claimed support from 55 MLAs, although she didn't
clarify where the rest of the 27 MLAs would come from.
However, both BJP and PDP sources cautioned not to
read too much into Mehbooba's meeting with the
governor.
PDP sources said all options are open, although there
have been some positive developments on the BJP-PDP
front. But given the set of issue involved in getting two
ideologically diverse political entities together to rule
India's most sensitive state, sources say it will take a
long time to reach some consensus.
BJP's Ram Madhav sounded positive, but was guarded in
his statements. "We appreciate Mehbooba Mufti's
gesture through media," he said, adding "We await
formal initiation of dialogue. But when such a mandate is
given there are more than one alternatives," he added.
Talking to reporters after meeting Vohra, Mehbooba
Mufti said reconciliation should be focus of the new
dispensation. "Our priority is not to cobble up a majority
for the sake of government formation," Ms Mufti said.
"Whichever formation firms up, it should respect the
mandate of the people and must have reconciliation as a
key principle or otherwise forming any government is
useless."

Apple is testing a ChatGPT-like AI chatbot

  According to a recent report by Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple is making significant strides in the development of artificial intelligence tools to rival the likes of OpenAI and Google. Internally referred to as "Apple GPT," the tech giant has created a chatbot using its proprietary framework called "Ajax." This framework, built on Google Cloud with Google JAX, enables the creation of large language models similar to ChatGPT and Google's Bard. While Apple is yet to finalize its strategy for consumer release, it is reportedly planning a major AI-related announcement next year. The chatbot's internal rollout faced delays due to security concerns related to generative AI. However, it has been made available to a growing number of Apple employees with special approval, primarily for product prototyping purposes. Apple's chatbot can summarize text and answer questions based on its training data. Although it shares similarities with commercially availabl...

वैज्ञानिकों  ने  अंतरिक्ष  में  गुरूत्वीय  तरंगों  की ऐतिहासिक    की: वैज्ञानिकों ने 11 फरवरी 2016 को घोषणा की कि उन्होंने अंतत: उन गुरूत्वीय तरंगों की खोज कर ली है, जिसकी भविष्यवाणी महान वैज्ञानिक आइंस्टीन ने एक सदी पहले कर दी थी। ब्रह्मांड में जोरदार टक्करों के कारण पैदा होने वाली इन तरंगों की खोज खगोलविदों को इसलिए उत्साहित कर रही है क्योंकि इससे ब्रह्मांड का अवलोकन उसकी क्रमबद्धता में करने का एक नया रास्ता खुल गया है। इस नयी खोज में खगोलविदों ने अत्याधुनिक एवं बेहद संवेदनशील लेजर इंटरफेरोमीटर ग्रेविटेशनल वेव ऑबजर्वेटरी (लीगो) का इस्तेमाल किया, जिसकी लागत 1.1 अरब डॉलर है। लीगो की मदद से उन्होंने दूर दो ब्लैक होल के बीच हुई हालिया टक्कर में पैदा हुई गुरूत्वीय तरंग का पता लगाया। गुरूत्वीय तरंगों की सबसे पहली व्याख्या आंइस्टीन ने वर्ष 1916 में अपने सापेक्षिता के सामान्य सिद्धांत के तहत की थी। ये चौथी विमा दिक्-काल में असाधारण रूप से कमजोर तरंगें हैं। जब बड़े लेकिन सघन पिंड, जैसे ब्लैक होल या न्यूट्रॉन स्टार आपस में टकराते हैं तो उनके गुरूत्...
