NotebookLM seems to have a critical mass tipping point for some projects. My Post-Labor Economics instance has somewhere north of 1500 pages of research and it's basically become my own private Google purpose built for PLE research. There's a sort of well-roundedness to its

Eric Schmidt says the cost of intelligence is falling 10x per year. “It's essentially the industrialization of platforms.” What engines did in 70 years, AI is replicating in 5. A new fab layer for civilization is booting up.

New AI powered method accelerates protein simulations and reveals complex folding dynamics A team led by Prof. Cecilia Clementi at Freie Universität Berlin has developed CGSchNet, a deep learning based odel that simulates protein dynamics far faster and more accurately than

Zuckerberg says Meta will build data center the size of Manhattan in latest AI push; They plan to spend hundreds of billions It’s nuts how much they invest in data center

Recursive self-improving AI is months away. This isn’t a milestone. It’s an inflection point ..the beginning of an intelligence explosion we can’t predict or control. What follows is either a new renaissance or the end of agency as we know it. This is the real singularity.

Dancing is just for fun, but you also need to be able to work. A Chinese guy spent ¥300K to buy a Unitree G1 to work as a car washer. It turns out that there is a huge demand for humanoid robots in households. Who can bring the price down?

AGI is already here. All the components exist; we just need to stitch them together. It’s Artificial General Intelligence, not “Artificial Top-Percentile Human Intelligence.” Two years ago, who would have said an IMO gold medal & topping benchmarks isn’t AGI?

Within a few months, OpenAI is going to dominate all leaderboards in math and coding. Other frontier AI labs will follow suit. It's the knee of the curve. All stations, green for liftoff.

Maybe the first Tweet in history yearning for a Biglaw lifestyle. Always be innovating StripMallGuy!

As depressing as it is accurate.

all the ai labs will now start implementing a “severance” protocol for employees so they don’t leak any secrets & they can’t take them to the next lab when recruited.

Question for humanoid robot nerds: do we already have humanoids we can control via VR headsets (via remote link)? You know, so you could wash your car or get your mail from the couch. If not, why not? And, if not, when?

Capex spend on AI data centres has reached 1.2% of US GDP. That has surpassed Dotcom era spend on telecom equipment (1%) but still trails railroad spend in 1880s (6%).

Its pretty funny that the Turing Test used to be a very big deal a couple years ago & now it isn't. (I know retrospectively we all know how flawed it was, but for decades it was The Test, and the only way to beat it was through limited interaction & trickery, eg Eugene Goostman)

A drone or a submarine? 🫧 A student just built a drone that flies through the air and swims underwater — and it actually works. As part of his Bachelor’s project, Andrei Copaci created a 3D-printed, hybrid drone with variable pitch propellers, meaning the blades shift

Friendly reminder that customers don’t care about your tech stack, they only care if it works. Impress users by solving problems.

One big downside of social media: It’s the biggest gift to scammers of all time.

We all get sad about the state of the world sometimes. To combat that sadness, i force myself to read about all the truly incredible progress (see X below) we have made. Doesn’t make the negatives not real, just contextualizes them. It also reminds you that we are capable of
