Forbes on top of Google: how did it happen? Forbes covers almost every possible query topic in the English-speaking segment of the Internet - from "the best pet insurance" and "how to get rid of cockroaches" to "the most effective CBD gummies". This may seem somewhat uncharacteristic of a publication of this caliber. So, how come Forbes publishes articles on these not-so-core topics? As LL found out, back in 2020, Forbes transferred the SEO part of its affiliate program business to another company. As a result, a new structure emerged - Forbes Advisor, which, although it retained the sounding name Forbes, actually became a separate company. It is this company that today...

What are blockchain and nodes? In the world of cryptocurrencies, nodes have long ceased to be just a technical element. Now it is an opportunity to earn money, test new technologies, and improve your knowledge of Web3. Nodes in the blockchain are computers that store information about transactions and ensure the operation of the entire network. They verify and confirm every transaction. Imagine blocks as “pages” in a book where all transactions are recorded. Nodes help to organize these pages into a reliable and unchanging chain. It's quite simple: the basis of any blockchain is decentralization. If a project launches all nodes independently, it is no longer a blockchain but a centralized system, where it is difficult to talk about independence and security. But when nodes are launched by users from different parts of the world, the network becomes more...

The upcoming AI model from OpenAI, according to the sources of The Information, will show a less tangible performance increase compared to previous versions. According to published data, the Orion model reached GPT-4 after only 20% of training. This suggests that GPT-5 will not be able to outperform GPT-4 as significantly as GPT-3 did when it transitioned to GPT-4. "Orion does not demonstrate significant advantages in certain tasks. It copes well with language tasks, but it does not outperform previous models in programming," the startup's employees note. Usually, the greatest improvements in neural networks are observed in the initial stages of training. After that, the progress gradually slows down. According to the sources of The Information, the remaining 80% of the training time is unlikely to bring a significant leap in performance. AI has reached its limits The recent OpenAI...
