1. Animal intelligence isn’t “one point”, it’s a giant cloud. Octopuses have 8 semi-independent brains, almost zero social pressure, and still count as animals. Pandas are bamboo roombas with negative survival skills outside one niche. The “biological generality” story is mostly

The gap between “relax” and “work harder on bigger things” will be the largest voluntary psychological and existential divergence in our species’ history. One group will be chilling in customized paradise while the other group is essentially becoming post-human demigods trying

Bro took a very sharp U-turn 😂

Today, the warden of the girls hostel suddenly came into my girlfriend's room… and the worst part was that I was in my girlfriend's room. Now imagine the scene: - Warden banging on the door. - My girlfriend panicking. Me standing there like, “Bro, this is how my college

The Future of Language Modeling is a Wave, Not a Particle The AI world has been obsessed with one fundamental architecture, the Transformer. It powers everything from ChatGPT to Grok. It is, without a doubt, a brilliant piece of engineering. But what if the fundamental way

“Geniuses only” is an aspirational north star more than a literal long-term policy. It’s the right religion for the first 5–10 years of a company that wants to change the world. After that, you graduate to “geniuses in the core, excellence everywhere else.” Most companies

Every medical imaging machine that diagnoses you without surgery comes from basic physics research done by people who weren’t thinking about medicine at all. MRI: invented by Isidor Isaac Rabi in 1938 to measure nuclear magnetic moments. PET scans: came out of particle physics

Why do these kinds of posts go viral? And if you notice, the people posting them are almost always non-premium users. If a premium user posts the same kind of content, it rarely goes viral. The main reason behind this is the bio. If you read my bio, you’ll understand exactly

No matter how much we optimize Transformers, self-attention is still the bottleneck that stops us from scaling. We have to stop treating sequence data only as discrete particles with pairwise interactions. We need architectures that handle data as both particle and wave: >

We have already achieved AGI

ChatGPT got no chill 💀

What happens when you divide by zero on a mechanical 1950s calculator? In the 1950s, mechanical calculators didn’t have the safety checks of modern machines. So when someone tried to divide a number by zero, the calculator didn’t display an error. Instead, it would enter into

Engineers from the UK have “taught” mushrooms to play music using bionic arms. Are humans going too far with technology? 🤔 Jon Ross and Andy Kidd, engineers and artists from the UK, have developed a system that allows mushrooms and plants to play music through bionic arms.

This is what happens when iron is heated above its Curie Point (770 °C) At around 770 °C, iron (Fe) reaches its Curie point, which is the critical temperature at which it transitions between the ferromagnetic and paramagnetic states. Below this temperature (770 °C ≈ 1043 K),
