Anything from not being able to follow mark schemes, question structures, the lot.

Midjourney, an artificial intelligence startup known for generative images and videos, has announced its first hardware project. CEO David Holz unveiled the Midjourney Scanner, a full-body ultrasound machine aimed at the personal health sector. "No such device has ever been built until now," Holz said, claiming the technology is more advanced than MRI scanners. While the company plans to open "Midjourney Spa" locations, broader applications may require FDA appr...

The last few days, I've been getting obviously AI robocallers trying to sell me Medicare plans. (I'm not old enough for Medicare for another 20 years.) Sometimes it's a male voice, sometimes female. Always a different name. They've added a little trick where they start their speech then cough or sneeze, then say "Sorry about that," or a similar apology then continue. But if you try to interrupt them, they just keep talking, so you know it's AI. And they do the cough/apology in EVERY ca...

I actually got this email like a few days ago and then they sent this to me again just now and when I clicked “save my account”, it leads me to a payment plan. Would my account really get deleted if I don’t pay? Or is this a super good scam?

In this demo, I show how to use Row-Bot for a practical research workflow: taking a research question, combining recent web research with an uploaded client context document, creating a structured briefing, exporting it as a PDF, and drafting an email with the report attached. We start by configuring the tools needed for the workflow: web search, URL reading, the Documents library, PDF export, Gmail, and the Deep Research skill. Then we run an end-to-end scenario where Row-Bot prepares a clie...

We had a legacy endpoint crawling under load. Two years ago I would've spent a week fixing it myself. Instead I looked at the logs, saw an team was hammering it with a cron job, and sent their dev a Slack message asking if they still needed that data. Got an answer the next day, a simple no and they turned off the job. Latency dropped. Problem solved The embarrassing part is how many times I've probably dove headfirst into a problem that could be solved with communication Has anyone else...

The core problem with using multiple AI models is that each one only knows what you tell it in that specific conversation. Switch to a different model and you're re-briefing from scratch. By the time you've caught Claude up on what ChatGPT already knows, you've lost ten minutes and half the momentum. Worse, they end up with different versions of your project because you explained it slightly different ways, so you get contradicting outputs. Most people handle this in one of three ways. The f...

Sorry if this comes across as a rant, I just came off a frustrating session with my LLM, who tries to be "smart" by assuming that their mode of thinking is "sufficient" for my requirement. I recalled in 2024/2025, which new model brought a new excitement to the users than the previous version - "you mean the model can do this now?" Now, it is the inverse - "you mean the models are trying to optimise itself?" Flexible thinking on the pretext of saving t...

Chinese AI company Z.ai (formerly Zhipu AI) says its new GLM-5.2 model is now performing close to leading models from OpenAI and Anthropic on coding and AI agent benchmarks. The company claims the model delivers competitive results at a much lower cost and has been optimized to run on domestic Chinese hardware, including Huawei chips. Z.ai is also planning a dual listing in Hong Kong and Shanghai to fund its long-term AGI ambitions. The news comes as China's AI sector continues to narrow...

Hey everyone, ​We are quickly approaching a major bottleneck in AI-assisted software engineering. Relying on LLMs to spit out thousands of lines of code without a strict, human-driven architectural framework—what many call "Vibe Coding"—is creating brittle, unmaintainable systems. ​I’ve formalized this structural shift into a public document on GitHub: The AI-Powered Developer Manifesto. ​Instead of treating AI as a replacement for software architecture, we need to shift our paradigm f...

For me, it would probably be search, writing assistance, and productivity tools. I'm curious-what Al-powered tool do you use most often without even thinking about it?

People talk about developing safe technology but what they're doing is developing unsafe technology and using it in a safe way inside what they hope is a safe product. You could probably use an arsenal of guns to build a hospital but it doesn't make Smith an Wesson a healthcare firm. Science is a body of knowledge, not a product.

What happens when AI learns the fundamental process of creation itself at an abstract mathematical level? Training AI on human data often gets described as just the first step, but I think that framing already underestimates what is actually happening. We’re not just building systems that imitate human creativity. We’re slowly building systems that try to understand what creativity is in the first place. A lot of the debate today gets stuck between two ideas. On one side, whether AI shoul...

I have been wondering if, give the proper in-depth guidance and multiple writing samples, os there really a big difference between them?

Here’s the full timeline: -June 9: Anthropic releases Claude Fable 5, their most powerful public model ever (Mythos-class with safeguards) -June 12: US government issues an export control directive at 5:21 PM, ordering Anthropic to cut off access to ALL foreign nationals. Model goes offline worldwide within 90 minutes -The reason? Amazon engineers reportedly found a narrow jailbreak that could bypass Fable’s cybersecurity classifiers -Anthropic complied but publicly pushed back, calling...

I’ve been thinking about this a lot: maybe the most bullish AI outcome for investors is not actually “AGI arrives and changes everything overnight.” Maybe the best outcome is something more boring but more investable: AI becomes extremely useful, roughly as smart as the smartest humans in many domains, but it does not become runaway AGI or break society. That sounds less exciting, but honestly it might be the sweet spot. If AI becomes full AGI, the upside might be enormous, but markets a...

https://www.modaic.dev/blog/certainty-is-all-you-need Interesting blog post about how semantic transformations (not agents) will automate a lot of the decision work that happens in the corporate environment. What do you guys think?

At the very beginning, I found it quite fun, but quickly it became way too simple and predictable. Anyway, I wanted to share my full debrief with you: the successes, the mistakes, the emotional moments, and above all, the AI's limitations that sometimes created inconsistencies!

Hey all, just want to start by saying I know very little about AI and have just been going down a rabbit hole thinking about multi-agent simulations and had a question I couldn’t find a clear answer to. Most of the big simulation projects I’ve seen like Project Sid and Stanford Smallville use LLMs as the base, which means the agents already come loaded with human language, concepts, and cultural baggage before the experiment even starts. And things like Aivilization are cool but players are st...

11 days ago I posted here asking whether Commerce actually has authority to treat hosted frontier AI model access as an export-control issue. https://www.reddit.com/r/artificial/comments/1u4yjdi/does_commerce_have_the_authority_to_apply_export/ There is now a live federal case testing almost exactly that question. CourtListener (D.D.C. 1:26-cv-02225) Legion LegalTech has sued the United States, Commerce, and BIS over the directive that led Anthropic to restrict access to Fable 5 and Myth...

In this demo, I walk through how to use Row-Bot as a daily inbox command centre. We start by configuring the tools needed for the workflow: Gmail, Google Calendar, Tasks, and notifications, then run a practical end-to-end scenario. Row-Bot checks important unread emails, summarises what needs attention, identifies action items, drafts replies, creates a calendar event, schedules a reminder, and shows how the same workflow can become a recurring morning briefing. https://github.com/siddsacha...

I have worked with most all of Anthropics LLM's for development, but hands down Opus 4.8 has caused me more grief, aggravation, and it lies in every thing it does - especially near context mid-load and if you're doing deterministic work with no heuristics constraints you can't trust a thing out of it. So I stopped using it a while back, but today I had to do a container rebuild and in VS it slipped back into Opus 4.8 from Sonnet. And without even realizing the switch happen I could tell about a ...

We’ve been thinking about what vibe coding did for software creation. Today we're introducing OpenArt Director and a new approach to AI video creation we call Vibe Directing. Instead of building videos clip by clip, you work through conversation: describing ideas, exploring directions, and refining them with AI until the result feels right.
