Two of the most consequential people in artificial intelligence have both recently urged us to take the implications of AI seriously. Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, and Demis Hassabis, CEO of Google DeepMind, are the people actually building the systems that will shape our future. Continue Reading →

Both OpenAI and Google DeepMind announced gold-medal performances at the 2025 International Math Olympiad (IMO) this week, correctly answering five out of six questions in one of the world's most challenging high school math competitions. The achievement marks a significant leap from Google's silver-medal performance last year and represents the first time AI systems competed using "informal" methods (processing questions in natural language) rather than requiring human translation into machine-readable code.

The race to build humanoid robots is accelerating, and while most consumers aren't paying attention yet, they soon will be. AI-powered robotics will reshape labor markets, home assistance, and personal productivity in ways that seem like science fiction today. The combination of increasingly powerful AI models, advanced dexterity, and multi-modal learning is bringing robots out of the factory and into everyday life. Some of the world’s most talented engineers are working on this problem, and the breakthroughs are coming fast. Continue Reading →

Last night, I read a white paper from Google DeepMind about an AI system they are developing designed to mediate discussions, especially on divisive topics, to help groups reach consensus. By the numbers, the system was more successful than human mediators. I was so intrigued that I read the paper twice. It kept me up all night. Continue Reading →

Google's DeepMind researchers have introduced a new method to accelerate AI training, which they claim significantly reduces the computational resources and time required. Continue Reading →

DeepMind has unveiled V2A, an AI-powered technology capable of generating audio from a video input (not from a text description, but from the video input itself). As this technology matures, it's going to have an outsized impact on video creation workflows. Continue Reading →

Foreshadowing CES shows yet to come, Google's DeepMind has introduced three new robotic training tools: AutoRT, SARA-RT, and RT-Trajectory. Continue Reading →

AI is experiencing a very visible growth spurt. At the moment, only a handful of companies have the computational power to deal with large models. Is there a plateau coming? And, if so, will it advantage big tech or will AI tools evolve to democratize the industry? Continue Reading →
