1) The Bull Market in Grifters. Joe Weisenthal's latest newsletter was fantastic and in it he makes an interesting point: We live in an age of extreme grift. This is obvious. There are people out there publicly organizing pump and dump| Discipline Funds
AI is everywhere. This is a guide for students — my students, your students — and anyone who would like to resist the lure of AI. The more you know about large-language model (LLM) AI, the more reasons you discover to avoid using it — or, at least, to limit your use.| Philip Nel

Apple's new AI study reveals major flaws in reasoning models, showing why current AI still struggles with complex problem-solving.| Fello AI
Recently Apple published a paper on LRMs (Large Reasoning Models) and how they found that “that LRMs have limitations in exact computation” and that “they fail to use explicit algorithms and reason inconsistently across puzzles.” I would consider this a death blow paper to the current push for using LLMs and LRMs as the basis for AGI. Subbaro Kambhampati and Yann LeCun seem to agree. You could say that the paper knocked out LLMs. More recently, a comment paper showed up on Arxiv and s...| victoramartinez.com
