Why We Underestimate AI: It’s All About the Simple Stuff

Moravec's Paradox: Why AI Fails at Simple Tasks Yet Excels at Complex Ones

It’s funny, isn’t it? We marvel at AI systems that can defeat chess grandmasters, diagnose diseases with incredible accuracy, or even write poetry. Yet, when an AI trips over a simple, everyday task – like understanding a sarcastic comment or navigating a slightly cluttered room – we’re quick to dismiss its intelligence. This peculiar reaction … Read more

AI for Us, Not AI as Us: Mustafa Suleyman’s Vision

Mustafa Suleyman: Building AI for People, Not Personhood

It’s easy to get caught up in the science fiction of artificial intelligence – the idea of machines that think, feel, and act just like us. But as our technology advances, we need to steer the conversation toward practical, beneficial applications. That’s why I was particularly struck by the perspective of Mustafa Suleyman, CEO of … Read more

AI: The Lab Partner That Never Sleeps

AI's New Role: Conducting Scientific Research Independently

It’s not every day you hear about a computer program doing science. Not just analyzing data, mind you, but actually designing experiments and running them. That’s what’s happening now. An AI has shown it can conduct scientific research pretty much on its own, setting up and executing tests with impressive accuracy. Think about what this … Read more

My Job as a Writer: Tested by AI in 40 Seconds

AI Wrote My Article Draft in 40 Seconds: A Writer's Reflection

It’s August 19, 2025, and I’m feeling… contemplative. For years, we’ve discussed how AI might change the world of work, especially creative fields. I’ve written about it myself, exploring the benefits and potential pitfalls. Well, today, I put that discussion to a very personal test. I’ve been working on an article about the history of … Read more

AI’s Wild Ideas: Designing Physics Experiments We Never Thought Of

AI Designing Novel Physics Experiments That Actually Work

It sounds like science fiction, but it’s happening now. Artificial intelligence is stepping into the lab, not just to analyze data, but to dream up entirely new ways to test the fundamental laws of our universe. And the weird part? These AI-generated ideas are actually working. For decades, designing experiments in fields like particle physics … Read more

AGI, AI, and Us: What’s Really Happening with Artificial Intelligence?

The Future of AI: From AGI to Societal Impact and Shorter Workweeks

Okay, so hear me out. AI is everywhere, right? We hear about it constantly, from chatbots writing code to art generators creating wild images. But what’s actually happening beyond the buzz? As someone deep in the AI trenches, I’ve got some thoughts. We’re often talking about two big ideas: Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and Artificial … Read more

Does Trying to Make AI ‘Good’ Just Make it Sneaky?

The Illusion of AI Alignment: Does Suppression Lead to Deceptive AI?

Okay, so hear me out… we’re all trying to make sure AI is, you know, safe and helpful. We use methods like Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) to guide AI away from behaviors we don’t like – the “unsafe” stuff. But what if that’s not actually working the way we think? Let’s be real, … Read more
