The Hierarchical Reasoning Model (HRM) is a new type of AI that reasons more like a human brain, using a fast part for quick details and a slow part for big-picture planning. It solves hard logic tasks like Sudoku, mazes, and IQ-style puzzles very well, even though it is tiny (only 27 million parameters) and learns from very little data (just 1,000 examples). Unlike most large language models, it does not need long chains of written reasoning steps or huge amounts of training, which makes it much faster, cheaper, and more efficient. For the user, this means powerful reasoning in a small, fast system that can run on ordinary hardware and still beat much larger models on tough problems.

Grand #Ethiopian Renaissance Dam: how #Africa’s largest hydropower project Is powering #Ethiopia’s future
A detailed examination of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam – its construction, specifications, commissioning, regional impact, and remaining challenges.
The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (#GERD) is the largest hydropower project in Africa. Located on the #Blue_Nile in Ethiopia’s #Benishangul-Gumuz region, about 14km from the Sudanese border, the project has been delivered by Ethiopian Electric Power (#EEP) with major civil works undertaken by #Webuild Group (formerly #Salini Impregilo).
The objective of the dam is to increase Ethiopia’s electricity generation capacity, reduce dependence on imported energy, and support long-term industrial and economic development.
Construction began in 2011, and Ethiopia officially inaugurated......
