I guess I kinda get why people hate AI
I’m sitting on a lānai in a hotel in Waikiki beach, writing this article, and wondering if the job I am starting nine days from now will be my last.This is a...

Yoshua Bengio: How Rogue AIs May Arise
The rise of powerful AI dialogue systems in recent months has precipitated debates about AI risks of all kinds, which hopefully will yield an acceleration of governance and regulatory frameworks.
O3 Turns Pro
You can now have o3 throw vastly more compute at a given problem.
GPT-4 Turbo with Vision is a step backwards for coding
OpenAI’s GPT-4 Turbo with Vision model scores worse on aider’s code editing benchmarks than all the previous GPT-4 models. In particular, it seems much more prone to “lazy coding” than the existing GPT-4 Turbo “preview” models.

LeCun's 2022 paper on autonomous machine intelligence does not cite prior work
1990: gradient descent learns subgoals. 1991: multiple time scales and levels of abstraction. 1997: world models learn predictable abstract representations...
AI, Heidegger, and Evangelion
Our brains, evolved for tribal politics and campfire stories, are ill-equipped for the moral ambiguity of a system with no soul to save or damn.
Probabilistic programming does in 50 lines of code what used to take thousands
MIT researchers demonstrate probabilistic programming that does in 50 lines of code what used to take thousands.
Deep learning to translate between programming languages
TransCoder is the first self-supervised neural transcompiler system for migrating code between programming languages. It can translate code from Python to C++, for example, and it outperforms rule-based translation programs.
Qwen2.5-Coder-32B is an LLM that can code well that runs on my Mac
There’s a whole lot of buzz around the new Qwen2.5-Coder Series of open source (Apache 2.0 licensed) LLM releases from Alibaba’s Qwen research team. On first impression it looks like …

Interfaze: A new model architecture built for high accuracy at scale
A complete walkthrough of Interfaze: what it is, who we benchmark against (Gemini-3-Flash, Claude-Sonnet-4.6, GPT-5.4-Mini, Grok-4.3, plus task specialists like Reducto, SAM 3, Scribe v2), full results across 9 benchmarks, and code examples for OCR, object detection, and web search.
Initial CUDA Performance Lessons
I am somehow very late to learning CUDA. I didn’t even know until recently that CUDA is just C++ with a small amount of extra stuff. If I had known that there is so little friction to learnin…
AuraFlow v0.1: a open source alternative to Stable Diffusion 3
Open-source AI is in jeopardy. As community interest in AI models skyrocketed over the past year, we noticed that development of new open-source foundational models came to a halt. Some even boldly announced that open-source AI is dead. Not so fast! We are excited to present you
Vintage Artificial Intelligence: Before It Got Awkward
Long before the current kerfuffle about LLMs, Generative AI Artwork, and asking your tax preparation chatbot for a cookie recipe, the concept of artificial intelligence and synthetic life was a pervasive theme in creative and engineering works. We have the ground-breaking appearance of Rossum's Universal Robots (or…
How to implement Q&A against your docs with GPT3 embeddings and Datasette
If you’ve spent any time with GPT-3 or ChatGPT, you’ve likely thought about how useful it would be if you could point them at a specific, current collection of text …
Self-supervised learning: The dark matter of intelligence (2021)
How can we build machines with human-level intelligence? There’s a limit to how far the field of AI can go with supervised learning alone. Here's why self-supervised learning is one of the most promising ways to make significant progress in AI.
