Since folks are asking: The books I mentioned on xAI spaces are "Linear Algebra Done Right" by Axler and "Naive Set Theory" by Halmos. Other math books that I really enjoyed over the years: "Introduction to Algorithms" by Thomas H. Cormen & Charles E. Leiserson & Ronald L.

Sometimes I wonder if some profs truly enjoy teaching the same topic for 20+ years straight. Is there a way to make the teaching process more efficient without making them sound like parrots?

Many overlook that traditional ML methods like clustering or decision trees often outperform deep learning for small datasets or tabular data. They remain crucial in scientific research and production systems.

How close are we to seeing a 'Linux moment' in robotics manipulators thanks to imitation learning?

High IQ is overrated. Too many intelligent people echo others or can't maintain focus to overcome mediocrity. Raw intellect is very important, but it's the grind, the relentless pursuit, and laser-sharp focus that truly set brilliant people apart

Teaching AI shouldn't feel like writing essays. What if chat was more natural and fun? Built Anthropic Claude UI experiment. Instead of regenerating everything: - Show what you love/hate - Highlight + leave precise feedback

AI needs a better interface to do science!

Calling everyone in Toronto and Waterloo! On July 3, Ekkolápto is in Canada for our first Polymath Salon in Toronto—focused on engineering intelligence, qualia, and agency in cognitive systems. We are joined by some incredible speakers: • Andrés Gómez Emilsson from Qualia

After diving into biology for a few months, I'm surprised how we have incredible depth in specific domains but lack frameworks connecting them. I want to explore biology from first principles, asking questions however easy or hard. First post is out! kyrylok.substack.com/p/biology-from…

let's solve biomedicine together!
