In 2016 Geoffrey Hinton said “we should stop training radiologists now" since AI would soon be better at their jobs. He was right: models have outperformed radiologists on benchmarks for ~a decade. Yet radiology jobs are at record highs, with an average salary of $520k. Why?

2 weeks without smartphone internet significantly improved sustained attention. The effects were similar to being 10 years younger.
I wish google maps had a feature that is "show me popular places right now near me" @Google
Do the math what will happen to the population of your country in just two generations. Isn’t it a scary thought? It baffles me why people don’t understand what’s coming, and that politicians don’t put pro-family policies at the top of their priorities list?

DeepMind built a simple RAG technique that: - reduces hallucinations by 40% - improves answer relevancy by 50% Let's understand how to use it in RAG systems (with code):
GPT-5 just casually did new mathematics. Sebastien Bubeck gave it an open problem from convex optimization, something humans had only partially solved. GPT-5-Pro sat down, reasoned for 17 minutes, and produced a correct proof improving the known bound from 1/L all the way to…

You don’t need GPT-5 or Claude 5... You need better prompts. MIT just confirmed what AI experts already knew: Prompting drives 50% of performance. Here’s how to level up without touching the model:
"Systems performance is an important skill for all computer users, whether you're trying to understand why your laptop is slow or optimizing the performance of a large-scale compute environment." A must-have book.
