AI agents pose untold risk to humanity. We must act to prevent that future | David Krueger

The pieces are falling into place for autonomous artificial intelligence. We must stop unregulated developmentArtificial intelligence is en route to artificial life. Exhibit A: “Moltbook”, an online platform designed for AI systems to communicate with one another, sans humans.What exactly do AIs talk to each other about? According to BBC reporting, AIs on Moltbook have

A Coding Guide to Build a Scalable End-to-End Machine Learning Data Pipeline Using Daft for High-Performance Structured and Image Data Processing

In this tutorial, we explore how we use Daft as a high-performance, Python-native data engine to build an end-to-end analytical pipeline. We start by loading a real-world MNIST dataset, then progressively transform it using UDFs, feature engineering, aggregations, joins, and lazy execution. Also, we demonstrate how to seamlessly combine structured data processing, numerical computation, and

Google AI Releases a CLI Tool (gws) for Workspace APIs: Providing a Unified Interface for Humans and AI Agents

Integrating Google Workspace APIs—such as Drive, Gmail, Calendar, and Sheets—into applications and data pipelines typically requires writing boilerplate code to handle REST endpoints, pagination, and OAuth 2.0 flows. Google AI team just released a CLI Tool (gws) for Google Workspace. The open-source googleworkspace/cli (invoked via the gws command) provides a unified, dynamic command-line interface to

‘Our consciousness is under siege’: Michael Pollan on chatbots, social media and mental freedom

In his new book, the celebrated author explains why we need ‘consciousness hygiene’ to defend ourselves from AI and dopamine-driven algorithmsEach day when you wake up, you come back to yourself. You see the room around you, feel your body brush against your clothes and think about your plans, worries and hopes for the day.
