(2/n) Why it may be exciting?
🔸 ImageNet256 SOTA FID w/o CFG: 1.48/2.08 (800/80 epochs)
🔸 Near-SOTA FID w/ CFG: 1.29/1.70 (800/80 epochs)
🔸 Same latents work for both diffusion and NF models on ImageNet and T2I tasks;
🔸 Simple layer bridging spaces while preserving semantics!
(3/n) Generative models prefer low-dimensional latents (<64d) -- a small latent makes learning much more efficient. But strong pre-trained encoders output high-dimensional semantic features (>1000d) that encode rich information, fundamentally mismatched with generative modeling.
NOTEBOOKLM IS FAR MORE POWERFUL THAN MOST PEOPLE THINK ⚡
Most users upload a PDF and stop at the summary.
But NotebookLM is much more than a simple summarization tool.
It can transform your sources into a complete knowledge hub for learning, research, and content creation.
One of the most underrated productivity tools available today is probably already sitting in your browser.
Here are 10 powerful NotebookLM workflows you should be using 👇🏻
1. BUILD ONE NOTEBOOK AROUND ONE CLEAR GOAL
Most people misuse NotebookLM by dumping random files into a single place.
That kills clarity and weakens the output.
Instead, structure it like a system built for performance.
Create separate notebooks based on intent:
• Learn a specific skill
• Prepare for an exam
• Research a business idea
• Understand a new industry
• Create content consistently
• Analyze a competitor
• Organize a project from start to finish
Then only upload high value, relevant sources: PDFs, YouTube videos, articles, reports, audio, slides, or notes that directly serve that goal.
The core principle is simple:
One notebook = one objective = one focused intelligence system.
When you do this, NotebookLM stops being a storage tool and becomes a thinking partner that gives sharper summaries, better quizzes, and more accurate insights every single time.
2. TURN ANY PDF INTO A HIGH PERFORMANCE STUDY GUIDE
Most people upload a PDF and stop at:
“Summarize this.”
That barely scratches the surface of what NotebookLM can actually do.
Instead, you want to force it into teaching mode, not summary mode.
Use a structured instruction like this:
“Turn these sources into a complete study guide.
Include:
1. The big picture explained in simple, beginner friendly language
2. The most important core concepts I must understand
3. Key definitions I need to memorize
4. Clear examples for every difficult idea
5. Common mistakes beginners usually make
6. The best logical order to learn everything step by step
7. A final revision checklist for quick review
Make it practical, structured, and easy to scan.
Do not just summarize the content. Teach it like a tutor would.
If you have a Gmail account, you need to read this.
Google's AI now scans your emails and attachments, bank statements, tax files, medical letters, all of it. It turned on by default, and there's a class-action lawsuit over how.
Here are 5 moves to shut it off, the switch is hidden in two places:
Google automatically turned on AI features in Gmail, Chat, and Meet for many users in late 2025.
These features can read your emails, messages, and attachments to create summaries and suggestions.
Google says your emails don't train Gemini, but some users say they never clearly agreed to these AI features being enabled.
Unless you turn them off, the AI can still analyze your inbox to provide these features.
1. The Main Switch
This is the main setting Google shows you, but it's not the only one.
Gmail (Desktop):
⚙️ Settings → See all settings → Smart features and personalization → Uncheck "Turn on smart features in Gmail, Chat, and Meet" → Save Changes.
🚨 EXCLUSIVE: EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas compared Israel to apartheid-era South Africa during high-level talks in Mexico – breaking ranks with the EU's official diplomatic line.
This is bigger than a slip of the tongue. Here's why it matters. 🧵 1/6
Behind closed doors, Mexico City, May 20-22.
Kallas referenced her visit to the Johannesburg apartheid museum – drawing a direct parallel to Israel's treatment of Palestinians.
Mexican officials were present. 2/6
One EU diplomat to Euractiv:
"The apartheid comparison is unacceptable and not EU policy. It is a major problem if she makes such statements while officially representing the EU."
Wondering what #PedoGate is? Apparently another rehash of a psychotic person calling up the FBI — this one claiming he saw TV personality Robin Leach murder a young girl and bury her behind the 19th hole at Trump's golf course. Insane that this shit still gets presented as "news"
If you've interacted enough with the general public, you know how insane it would be to simply report everything you've ever been told by anyone via public "tip line," because mentally disturbed people constantly claim to have seen/heard/experienced things that they 100% made up
Die Krym-Brücke ist seit April nicht für Fahrzeuge über 1.5 to befahrbar - weder zivil noch militärisch.
Auch die Bahnbrücke ist stark eingeschränkt.
Fracht wird auf die Krym per Fähre oder über die besetzten Gebiete transportiert.
Und da wird's eng: 1/8
Russlands Debakel beginnt damit,
-dass es die für ca 3-6 Mrd. € gebaute Brücke nicht vor dem ukrainischen Angriff im Oktober 2022 schützen konnte
-und die anschließenden Reparaturen so mangelhaft waren, dass man dort aus statischen Gründen keinen LKW-Verkehr mehr zulässt. 2/8
Das gilt ähnlich für die parallel verlaufende Eisenbahnbrücke, auf der schwere Gütertransporte untersagt sind, sowie jegliche Militärtransporte.
Nur Personenverkehr und leichte Gütertransporte sind möglich. Und das wegen UA Beschuss mit immer größerer Einschränkung.
3/8
1/ Many of the Russian soldiers seen daily being blown up by Ukrainian drones are there not because they're trained infantry, but are specialists or even officers who are being sent to their deaths as a punishment. A Russian colonel says he's never seen anything like it. ⬇️
2/ An 'old recruit' who has survived two years' service in the Russian army writes to warblogger and journalist Maxim Kalashnikov to relay his experience of how the army is routinely sending men to die in assaults for displeasing their superiors, regardless of their expertise:
3/ "About a month ago, I managed to meet with an officer from our artillery battalion. We started serving in it at the same time. I was dropped from the unit to the hospital earlier. He displeased his superiors and ended up in an assault unit. He wasn't alone, though.
Applebaum: Trump is not handling the Iran war strategically. He is not asking what is good for Americans, Iranians or the Middle East.
He is asking: how is this good for me? How do I emerge as the winner? He is chasing applause, not solving the problem. 1/
Applebaum: Trump has never made clear why America is fighting in Iran. Is it because he failed to destroy all nuclear facilities?
Because he wants Netanyahu’s approval? Nobody knows. This is not a problem of democracy, it is a problem of why this war exists. 2/
Applebaum: Iran wants frozen assets, sanctions relief and maybe compensation.
But if Trump offers that, it looks like Obama’s nuclear deal, so he backtracks. Then he returns to “absolute surrender,” regime change or a show that he is the greatest leader. 3/
Applebaum: What binds Russia, China, Iran and North Korea is not religion or ideology.
China is communist, Russia nationalist, Iran theocratic. What binds them is fear of liberal language: rights, rule of law, separation of powers and independent courts. 1/
Applebaum: Ukraine has changed how the war is fought. The front is now a 20-mile transparent zone where Ukrainian drones can see almost everything.
Every Russian truck, car or soldier entering that zone can be identified and hit. 2/
Applebaum: Russian losses of around 1,000 killed and wounded a day, roughly 30,000 a month, come from Moscow still throwing people into a zone Ukraine can see and strike.
Russia kept advancing by mass, but now that movement has stopped. 3/
Y aunque ya habréis leído la mayoría de las cosas, voy a repasarlo.
El juez Calama, desde la Audiencia Nacional, imputa a José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero dos delitos nuevos: contra la Hacienda Pública y contrabando.
El motivo son las joyas intervenidas en el registro del 19 de mayo en su despacho de la calle Ferraz.
La tasación pericial preliminar entró en el juzgado ayer jueves: 1.323.915 euros.
Con esa cifra sobre la mesa, el juez abre pieza separada dentro de las Diligencias Previas 77/2024 (el caso Plus Ultra) y le comunica la imputación.
Declarará como investigado por esto el mismo día que ya tiene señalado para declarar por la causa principal.
Que va, según enumera el propio auto, de “tráfico de influencias, blanqueo de capitales, falsedad documental y organización criminal, entre otros”.
Os voy a contar qué se llevaron exactamente, cómo se tasó, y qué razona el juez para ver dos delitos,
Empezamos. 🧵
Qué había exactamente en ese despacho.
Primero, el sitio. El auto lo ubica con precisión notarial: "Calle Ferraz, número 35, piso 1º izquierda". El despacho de ZP.
Son 16 referencias, Doc. 041 a 056. Cuando Ansorena las despieza para tasarlas, su tabla tiene 79 entradas individuales.
El surtido: collares de zafiros, rubíes y esmeraldas cuajados de diamantes.
Pulseras a juego. Sortijas de cóctel. Pendientes tipo chandelier.
Relojes Longines, Omega, Pierre Balmain, Certina, Lorenz, Dogma y Krono.
Perlas cultivadas y perlas de imitación.
Cruces, medallas, alfileres de bebé.
La horquilla va del collar de 278.000 euros a una sortija de plata de 25.
Once piezas están tasadas como "sin valor": perlas de imitación, metal chapado, un gemelo desparejado.
Y luego está la bolsa.
El Doc. 0052 es, literal en el auto, una "Bolsa con inscripción 'presidencia del gobierno'".
Dentro: 16 piezas, entre ellas un reloj de bolsillo Longines de oro (3.000 €), un Omega de oro de señora (3.000 €) y un collar italiano de oro bicolor (3.300 €).
Sumando la tabla de Ansorena, el contenido de la bolsa ronda los 18.400 euros.
Una bolsa de Presidencia del Gobierno haciendo de joyero.
Hay también piezas con nombre propio grabado: una placa médica con "Jose Luis RZ", alfileres con "Alba".
Vamos, que hay cosas muy caras mezcladas con baratijas.
Cómo se tasó.
El expediente documenta la cadena de custodia al milímetro.
3 de junio: el juez ordena un "análisis preliminar" de las joyas: naturaleza, autenticidad, valor de reposición, fabricante y fecha aproximada de fabricación.
Encarga la pericia a la joyería Ansorena, con juramento del art. 474 LECrim.
8 de junio: dos peritos de Ansorena juran el cargo y empiezan a examinar lote a lote en dependencias de la UDEF.
La hoja de cadena de custodia es una tabla rellenada a mano, con bolígrafo: Doc. 041, inicio 10:15, fin 11:35. Doc. 042, de 10:20 a 11:35.
Así con todo.
Ese mismo día los peritos avisan: algunas gemas no se pueden valorar con los medios que hay allí.
9 de junio: dos policías trasladan cinco referencias al Instituto Gemológico Español, en la calle Alenza.
De algunos juegos viaja solo una pieza: un pendiente, un anillo.
Tres gemólogos firman los dictámenes D-68039 a D-68044.
10 de junio: el director general de Ansorena entrega el informe a la UDEF.
11 de junio: la UDEF lo remite al juzgado.
Y aquí el detalle que me gusta: va "en un sobre precintado, desconociéndose en este momento el importe de la valoración efectuada".
O sea, ni los policías que llevaban el asunto sabían la cifra.
12 de junio: auto.
Hay polémica con que la tasación la haga Ansorena, pero su prestigio está sobradamente probado.
Y no vamos a dudar tampoco del Instituto Gemológico Español.
Y también es justo decir que la trazabilidad de estas joyas, del despacho al laboratorio y vuelta, está hecha con precisión suiza.

@SG_GGZ @UPCKULeuven gaat dit misbruiken om te zorgen dat zij positief geframed worden en mensen met een zwaar schadelijke ervaring de mond te snoeren. Dat doen ze nu al, mijn persoonlijk account hier hebben ze geblokkeerd na een nog erg redelijke reactie, elders doen ze exact hetzelfde.
@SG_GGZ @UPCKULeuven Onderstaande reactie op het bericht van @UPCKULeuven ga je niet te zien krijgen zonder dat comment_id gedeelte. Zo dwingen zij een positieve framing in eigen belang af. Lijd jij schade, dan in stilte, opgesloten door UPC in de kooi van je eigen psyche. facebook.com/UPCKULeuven/po…
@SG_GGZ @UPCKULeuven Met die kennis weet ik dat dit "charter" alleen maar zal dienen om de belangen van figuren die negatief in beeld gebracht dreigen te worden veilig te stellen, wat bovenstaande tot een stukje toneel maakt; pure hypocrisie. Ik weet wat ik - ongevraagd - met dat UPC meegemaakt heb.
@SG_GGZ Een recentere zorgwekkende gebeurtenis. Ook VRT heeft zich aangesloten bij dit charter, wat niet tot doel heeft "vrij van stigma te rapporteren over mentale kwetsbaarheid", maar wel het monddood maken van stemmen die onwelgevallig zijn.. Ik weet waar @UPCKULeuven toe in staat is.
@SG_GGZ @UPCKULeuven Dit is de officiële mededeling: . Dit alles heeft niks te maken met #destigmatisering of #deontologie, laat staan met #geestelijkegezondheid. Vanuit mijn ervaring met dat UPC kan ik dat zeggen. Jij zal hen naar de mond praten of monddood gemaakt worden.linkedin.com/posts/activity…
⭕🧵 Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqhchi is giving an interview on Iranian television about the emerging deal with the US, here is what he said:
📌 The best time to end a war is when we have the upper hand. We are indeed winning on the battlefield. We have stood for 40 days against what is considered the world's superpower. An agreement and an end to the war will anchor this victory.
📌 The final agreement has not yet been reached. If it is completed, I promise to explain every clause in it. The agreement includes two phases, and we have moved the nuclear issue to the second phase.
BTW everyone tagged can block me if they wish as long as I can do whatever the hell I want on this platform I am satisfied as always I do everything that pleases me on this platform ♥️♥️🥰🥰♥️♥️
