Ketamine, TMS, a fecal analysis: my year trying San Francisco’s most experimental depression treatments

Carly Schwartz wanted a solution for her mental health struggles. She found one, but not where she expectedOn a threadbare carpet in the living room of a Bernal Heights bungalow, I lay blindfolded on my back. Two middle-aged rescue terriers, one missing an eye, sniffed my feet and climbed up and down my legs. F**kin’ […]

Forget the AI job apocalypse. AI’s real threat is worker control and surveillance

A new divide is emerging: between workers who use AI at work and those who are managed by itThe real danger that artificial intelligence poses to work is not just job loss – it is the growing divide between people who use AI to extend their skills and those whose working lives are increasingly shaped

Sakana AI and NVIDIA Introduce TwELL with CUDA Kernels for 20.5% Inference and 21.9% Training Speedup in LLMs

Scaling large language models (LLMs) is expensive. Every token processed during inference and every gradient computed during training flows through feedforward layers that account for over two-thirds of model parameters and more than 80% of total FLOPs in larger models. A team researchers from Sakana AI and NVIDIA have worked on a new research that

Mistaking AI behaviour for conscious being | Letter

Dr Simon Nieder responds to Richard Dawkins’ encounters with a chatbotRichard Dawkins’ reflections on AI consciousness are striking – not because they show that machines have crossed some hidden threshold into inner life, but because they reveal how readily we can be persuaded that they have (Richard Dawkins concludes AI is conscious, even if it

How to Build a Cost-Aware LLM Routing System with NadirClaw Using Local Prompt Classification and Gemini Model Switching

In this tutorial, we explore NadirClaw as an intelligent routing layer that classifies prompts into simple and complex tiers before sending them to the most suitable model. We start by installing the required packages, setting up an optional Gemini API key, and testing the local classifier through the NadirClaw CLI without making any live LLM

I knew my writing students were using AI. Their confessions led to a powerful teaching moment | Micah Nathan

The problem wasn’t just the perfectly polished, yet mediocre prose. It’s what’s lost when we surrender the struggle to translate thought into wordsI have been teaching fiction writing at MIT since 2017. Many of my students last wrote fiction in middle school, and very few have experienced a proper workshop, so at the start of

NVIDIA AI Just Released cuda-oxide: An Experimental Rust-to-CUDA Compiler Backend that Compiles SIMT GPU Kernels Directly to PTX

NVIDIA AI researchers recently released cuda-oxide, an experimental compiler that allows developers to write CUDA SIMT (Single Instruction, Multiple Threads) GPU kernels in standard Rust code. The project compiles Rust directly to PTX (Parallel Thread Execution) — the assembly-like intermediate representation that CUDA uses to target NVIDIA GPUs — without requiring domain-specific languages, foreign function
