AI didn't make me a worse coder. It made me a worse reviewer.

I built a lot of apps last year. I approved most of the code and commits that went into them, and a good portion of it I could not explain.

  • AI didn't reduce coding skills, but lowered code review quality
  • Many developers report decreased confidence post-AI usage
  • Aviation research explains AI's impact on cognitive skills

AI Is Opening New Revenue Streams for Automakers

Artificial intelligence (AI) could give automakers something they have spent years trying to build: a way to keep making money from a vehicle long after it leaves the dealership. Ford and General Motors (GM) are both betting that an AI assistant tied to a vehicle’s data can keep that relationship, and the revenue, going long […] The post…

AI Boosted Homework Scores, Then Exam Scores Dropped

An anonymous reader quotes a report from The Economist: Students and school children are increasingly using artificial intelligence. A survey last year by Chegg, an ed-tech firm, found that 80% of rich-world undergraduates used it in their studies. More recent polls put the figure at 94% in Britain and 93% in Germany.

  • AI usage by 80% of Chinese students aged 12-18
  • Homework scores increased by 18% with AI assistance
  • Exam scores dropped by 20% with AI usage

Nvidia just showed that the harness, not the AI model, is now the real hero

Nvidia research shows that AI agents can perform well, and not go off the deep end, through fine-tuning, even if the AI model isn't that great at the task.

  • Nvidia's research reveals harness, not AI model, is crucial for long-horizon tasks.
  • Optimized harness and supervisor component boost Claude Opus 5's ARC-AGI-3 score to 100%.
  • Harness includes memory, context, feedback, and scaffolding for AI agents.

AI Is Learning to Write Genetic Code

This sort of research is both exciting and terrifying: The two models in question were told to generate complete genomes for a viable bacteriophage—a type of virus able to infect and replicate itself inside bacteria, destroying them from the inside.
