I researched and built this over the holiday weekend. It's an (attempt at an) exhaustive guide to the technologies Star Trek suggested and the researchers, scientists, and builders who are making them reality. Ad astra per aspera! I wo

The writing is irrelevant. Who cares if students don't learn how to do it? Or if the magazines are all mostly generated a decade from now? All of that labor spent on writing wasn't really making economic sense. The problem with th

I'm expanding my website Bingeclock (online since 2014) into mobile. Both the iOS and Android apps were approved for open testing last week, so I'm very happy about that! https://www.bingeclock.com/ https:/&

Working as a freelance writer on Fiverr for the last ten years, I would receive daily inquiries from students asking me to write their papers. I always turned them down. It was explicitly against Fiverr's rules, and I wasn't going

He was definitely ahead of his time then, and even more so in the 90s!

It's certainly interesting. I'm just not convinced it's a test of general intelligence, and I don't think we'll know whether or not it is until it's been able to operate in the real world to the same degree tha

It's a test on which (apparently until now) the vast majority of humans have far outperformed all machine systems.

I agree. If the LLMs we have today never got any smarter, the world would still be transformed over the next ten years.
