Model and influencer Gracie Piscopo ‘deeply affected’ by partner’s shock murder charge

Instagram star Gracie Piscopo has finally opened up on the “utter disbelief” she feels following the arrest of her partner, who is accused of killing his own mother.

The Perth influencer has remained tight-lipped since Andre Rebelo, the father of her young son, was last month arrested and charged with murder over the 2020 death of his mother.

However, Piscopo on Wednesday finally opened up on how the shock development has completely uprooted her life.

Taking to Instagram, Piscopo revealed she had spent the past two weeks living in a “complete state of shock and utter disbelief”.

“I’d like to thank everyone for the patience and understanding for my absence,” she wrote to her 1 million Instagram followers.

“I am deeply affected by the events that have unfolded.”

Piscopo said her focus remained on the wellbeing of her three-year-old boy Romeo and thanked her followers for the outpouring of support.

“I am grateful for everyone who has reached out and sent love and support. This has been an extremely difficult time,” she said.

“Thank you to everyone for also understanding and respecting the need for privacy.

“Romeo and I will get through this.”

Exclusive: U.S. Must Move ‘Decisively’ to Avert ‘Extinction-Level’ Threat From AI, Government-Commissioned Report Says

T he U.S. government must move “quickly and decisively” to avert substantial national security risks stemming from artificial intelligence (AI) which could, in the worst case, cause an “extinction-level threat to the human species,” says a report com mission ed by the U.S. government published on Monday. “Current frontier AI development poses urgent and growing risks to national security,” the report, which TIME obtained ahead of its publication, says. “The rise of advanced AI and AGI [artificial general intelligence] has the potential to destabilize global security in ways reminiscent of the introduction of nuclear weapons.” AGI is a hypothetical technology that could perform most tasks at or above the level of a human. Such systems do not currently exist, but the leading AI labs are working toward them and many expect AGI to arrive within the next five years or less. The three authors of the report worked on it for more than a year, speaking with more than 200 government employees, e...

How is snow made? An atmospheric scientist describes the journey of frozen ice crystals from clouds to the ground

Curious Kids is a series for children of all ages. If you have a question you’d like an expert to answer, send it to curiouskidsus@theconversation.com. How is snow made? – Tenley, age 7, Rockford, Michigan The thought of snow can conjure up images of powdery slopes, days out of school or hours of shoveling. For millions of people, it’s an inevitable part of life – but you may rarely stop to think about what made the snow. As a professor of atmospheric and planetary sciences, I’ve studied how ice crystals floating in the sky become the snow that coats the ground. It all starts in the clouds. Clouds form when air near the Earth’s surface rises. This happens when sunlight warms the ground and the air closest to it, just like the Sun can warm your face on a cold winter day. As the slightly warmer air rises, it cools – and the water vapor in that rising air condenses to form liq...

New 'petabit-scale' optical disc can store as much information as 15,000 DVDs

Scientists have developed a new type of optical disc that can increase information storage capacity to the "petabit" level — 125 terabytes of data, or the combined storage capacity of about 15,000 DVDs.  Optical discs, such as DVDs and Blu-ray discs, are durable and inexpensive. A standard single-layer Blu-ray disc can store 25 gigabytes. By comparison, some USB flash drives can store 1TB, and hard disk drives (HDDs) can hold up to 16TB. But a team of scientists has created a new type of material, called "dye-doped photoresist with aggregation-induced emission luminogens" (AIE-DDPR) with a high areal density (the amount of data that can be stored in a given area) that can offer far denser storage capacity than typical HDDs).  Given the increasing amount of data we generate each day, from instant messages to streaming video, AIE-DDPR optical discs have the potential to revolutionize data storage. Optical discs take up less space than current storage methods, ...
