A Epoch AI study projects public text data for training large language models may run dry between 2026 and 2032, risking slower progress as firms rush to secure high quality data. Experts warn synthetic data and reuse can’t fully replace human authored content, calling for sustained access to sources like Reddit, Wikipedia, and publishers.

Horse lineage becomes global 4200 years ago
Scientists trace the origin of the modern horse to a single lineage emerging in the Pontic Caspian Steppe about 4200 years ago. The lineage spread across Eurasia within three centuries, likely tied to a genetic mutation shaping a rider friendly back, as ancient DNA from 475 horses shows a rapid, widespread replacement of earlier lineages.
