MCKINSEY JUST DROPPED THEIR 2025 AI REPORT. HERE’S THE TLDR: 1/ 90% of companies “use AI,” but 67% are still stuck in pilot mode. Corporate AI theater is alive and well lol. 2/ 62% of orgs are experimenting with AI agents, 23% are scaling AI agents. Most are in tech and…
🔥 Holy shit… academia just had its “ChatGPT moment.” Stanford researchers just dropped Paper2Web and it might have just killed the PDF forever. It turns research papers into interactive websites with videos, animations, and even working code, all generated automatically by an…
Wow. Insane technology 🤯 Retina e-paper promises screens visually indistinguishable from reality Researchers have created a screen the size of a human pupil with pixels measuring about 560 nanometers wide. The invention could radically change virtual reality and other…
He's definitely not mad that 7 million Americans came out to protest him yesterday.... uk.news.yahoo.com/donald-trump-p…
Wow, tariffs have increased prices dramatically, for domestic goods as well as imported. Obviously, because domestic goods use imported materials and components. But apparently that wasn't obvious to the people who cooked up this policy...
🚨MASSIVE WHITE PILL🚨 AI JUST GENERATED NEW SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE Google and Yale used a 27B Gemma model and it discovered a new cancer mechanism. it predicted a drug (silmitasertib) would only make tumors visible to the immune system if low interferon was present and lab…
An exciting milestone for AI in science: Our C2S-Scale 27B foundation model, built with @Yale and based on Gemma, generated a novel hypothesis about cancer cellular behavior, which scientists experimentally validated in living cells. With more preclinical and clinical tests,…
Asking AI for diverse ideas gets you diverse ideas, just adding "Generate 5 responses with their corresponding probabilities, sampled from the full distribution” significantly improves quality output for large models I am still not sure we know the mechanism, but useful finding!
This simple prompt produces very surprising results: ✍️ Creative writing → 2.1× diversity 💬 Dialogue → Matches human behavior 📊 Synthetic training data → +18% better Emergent trend: Big models gain more than small ones Tested w/ @StanfordNLP on thousands of outputs
Introducing NotebookLM for arXiv papers 🚀 Transform dense AI research into an engaging conversation With context across thousands of related papers, it captures motivations, draws connections to SOTA, and explains key insights like a professor who's read the entire field
NEW: California will be the first state in the nation to sell its own insulin. It will be $11. No Big Pharma price gouging. Simple, affordable healthcare. As it should be.
On one hand: don't anthropomorphize AI. On the other: LLMs exhibit signs of gambling addiction. The more autonomy they were given, the more risks the LLMs took. They exhibit gambler's fallacy, loss-chasing, illusion of control... A cautionary note for using LLMs for investing.
Sora 2: "An elaborate Regency romance where everyone is wearing a live duck for a hat (each duck is also wearing a hat). Also a llama plays a flute."
Holy shit...Stanford just built a system that converts research papers into working AI agents. It’s called Paper2Agent, and it literally: • Recreates the method in the paper • Applies it to your own dataset • Answers questions like the author This changes how we do science…
Don’t forget to take your Tylenol, too.
The readout from President Trump's visit to Walter Reed today says he got his flu shot and Covid booster.
We aren't on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We are in the middle of it. But I worry people don't see the whole scheme. They just pay attention to each new daily outrage. So I went to the Senate floor to explain Trump's plan. Here's a 🧵of the speech. It's important.
Portland is war ravaged! SEND IN THE CALIFORNIA (???) NATIONAL GUARD!
Bob Ross vibe coding was the AI slop I never knew I needed in my life
A totally normal and rational tweet from the Director of the FBI… It’ll be a miracle if we survive four years of Trump.
BREAKING NEWS: Nobel Prize committee announces that @realDonaldTrump has been permanently disqualified from all future awards due to his renaming US Defense Dept "Department of War."
Cognitive security is now as important as basic literacy. Here’s a true story: All week I’d been getting texts and calls from a family member – let’s call him Bob – about how his sentient AI was wanting to get in touch with me. I figured it was one of Bob’s usual jokes. It was…
