The week in AI at a glance

  • You can’t believe your eyes anymore: Solving image generation will have second- and third-order effects for years to come. Then comes video.

  • Be wary of the demons hiding under pitiful masks: A comic strip of “My Life As ChatGPT” goes viral… with an unexpected twist.

  • New Anthropic study: On the biology of an LLM: We don’t know how AI works, so we have to do experiments like a biologist: open up that thing and look inside.

  • Two new books on AI: On scaling and OpenAI’s story: Dwarkesh Patel’s “The Scaling Era: An Oral History of AI, 2019-2025” and Karen Hao’s “EMPIRE OF AI.”

  • Artists have already accepted that AI won: The moment you compare every unique artwork to AI, you’ve made AI your yardstick—whether you like it or not.

The week in The Algorithmic Bridge

  • (PAID) Weekly Top Picks #103: ARC-AGI 2 / AI tutoring / DeepSeek V3 update / What's vibe coding? / ChatGPT makes you lonely? / Sam Altman on Stratechery / Moore's Law for AI agents / Nvidia GTC keynote

  • (PAID) Congratulations on the Studio Ghibli Collection, OpenAI, but Not Much Else: We keep mistaking performance with competence. That’s why image generation has been solved, yet top models score 1% on ARC-AGI 2.
