(CNN) — A new combination of cancer medications appears to extend overall survival in patients with advanced bladder cancer more than the chemotherapies currently used as the standard of care.The research, being presented Sunday at this year’s European Society for Medical Oncology Congress in Madrid, suggests that a combination of the antibody drug enfortumab vedotin and the immunotherapy pembrolizumab, administered through IV infusions, cut the risk of disease progression or death by 55% in patients with advanced bladder cancer who hadn’t been treated before and whose cancer spread to other parts of the body — extending overall survival by a median of 31.5 months versus 16.1 months with standard chemotherapy.This is one of several new studies exploring ways to improve how bladder cancer is treated.“The problem with chemotherapy is although it works quite well initially, resistance occurs quickly, and the median survival for metastatic bladder cancer has been about a year,” said Dr....ResortPass unlocks local luxury pools, spas and more with new app

(CNN) — When you read “artificial intelligence,” you might think of new innovations such as Chat GPT, but AI has been used in video games since the 1950s.From Pacman’s trademark ghosts to autonomous decision-making in “The Sims,” AI is essential for things like creating adaptive characters and story lines.Now,the rapid development of generative AI is opening up a new frontier for video games: endless open worlds, unique content, autonomous characters, and the potential for faster game development.Act naturalGenerative AI – artificial intelligence that creates text, images and audio in response to a prompt – is set to shake up one of the signature components of video games: non-playable characters, known as NPCs. These characters typically have a set pattern of behavior, and their mannerisms and speech are often stilted and unnatural.“When we think about those NPCs, they look a bit weird,” says Alexis Rolland, development director of La Forge China, the Chinese branch of video games ...Mother of 6-year-old killed in alleged anti-Muslim attack near Chicago released from hospital after being stabbed over a dozen times

(CNN) — Billions of snow crabs have disappeared from the ocean around Alaska in recent years, and scientists now say they know why: Warmer ocean temperatures likely caused them to starve to death.The finding comes just days after the Alaska Department of Fish and Game announced the snow crab harvest season was canceled for the second year in a row, citing the overwhelming number of crabs missing from the typically frigid, treacherous waters of the Bering Sea.The study, published Thursday by scientists at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, found a significant link between recent marine heat waves in the eastern Bering Sea and the sudden disappearance of the snow crabs that began showing up in surveys in 2021.“When I received the 2021 data from the survey for the first time, my mind was just blown,” said Cody Szuwalski, lead author of the study and fishery biologist at NOAA. “Everybody was just kind of hoping and praying that that was an error in the survey and that ...California Gov. assures his state is always a partner on climate change as he begins trip to China
