The AI that lives on your laptop is about to become smarter than the AI that needed a data center two years ago. Here is what that actually means for you. Not long ago, running a powerful AI model meant one thing: the cloud. Your question traveled from your device, up to a server farm somewhere in Virginia or Oregon, got processed by a machine the size of a shipping container, and the answer came back down. Fast, yes.

Mechanistic Interpretability: We Built the Most Powerful Minds in History. We Can’t Read Them. We are flying blind inside the most powerful systems ever built. Here is the map being drawn in real time. 14 min read · AI Research I want to be honest about what pulled me into this topic. I had been following AI developments closely for a couple of years — reading papers, tinkering with APIs, following the usual discourse about benchmarks and model releases. And at some point I […]

The AI landscape has never moved faster — or been more confusing. This is the no-hype guide to matching the right tool to the right task, every time. Every week, a new AI model launches with claims of being “the most powerful ever.” Every month, a new tool emerges promising to automate everything. Most people respond by either chasing every shiny thing — constantly switching tools — or by paralysis, sticking with the first AI they tried and never exploring what else exists. Both approaches leave […]

Stanley Plotkin, 93, was instrumental in developing a number of vaccines over the course of his career. He recently said that he’s “beginning to regret having lived so long—because we’re going downhill.” How could we possibly have gotten here? Maybe we’ve always been here. It turns out that the anti-vaccine arguments currently flooding the Internet have been around for as long as vaccines have. In his new book A Pox on Fools, Thomas Levenson breaks them down into […]

Durante un tiempo, a muchas empresas les pareció una buena idea medir la adopción de la inteligencia artificial contando tokens. Cuántos tokens consumía cada empleado, cuántas llamadas hacía, cuántas veces invocaba un agente, cuánto contexto movía por sus sistemas. Cómodo, cuantificable, fácil de poner en un dashboard y, sobre todo, producía esa tranquilizadora ilusión de control que tanto gusta en las organizaciones cuando aparece una tecnología nueva. El problema es que, como casi siempre, la tranquilidad era falsa. […]

Security vendors will sell you an XDR platform that costs more than your car and still misses the weird stuff because it was trained on someone else’s network. I got tired of paying for that. So I built my own, on an old NUC under my desk, for about $28 a month in electricity and cloud storage. This is that build. OpenClaw as a 24/7 log watcher, anomaly scorer, correlator, and Telegram notifier. No cloud dependency. No per-seat license. […]
