The pharmaceutical industry is using artificial intelligence to speed up drug discovery, with companies like Eli Lilly and Sanofi striking licensing deals with AI companies. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Deep value investing, to me, is not about big discounts. It’s about finally seeing something profound and deep underneath the surface, when others are still only seeing the tip of the iceberg, and still making judgements.

OpenAI explains "where the goblins came from"

Dog was just waiting for his opportunity to get on the couch haha.

@EWess92 Wow. Wow.

A man stole William Woods's identity, then accused Woods of stealing his, had Woods prosecuted, jailed, and drugged in a mental ward. A dogged detective solved it. Is an above-guidelines sentence justified? Yes, explains Judge Gruender. Might be the craziest fact section yet!

Must listen! An insightful conversation with Katherine Stueland and Fierce Healthcare's Anastassia Gliadkovskaya. 🎧

A book — published in 2005 — predicted the COVID-19 pandemic, financial collapse, the war in Iran ... and nobody's talking about it. @beauberman/p-192622141" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@beauberman/p-…

In a world of AI slop, this quote hits 10x harder

@gbrl_dick The “censored version” switched R-word to “it started”, and was used as the NBA playoffs lead-in song in early 2000s

it's impossible to explain the early 2000s to zoomers, but just to give you a sense: in 1995, backpack rapper will i am started a backpack rap group called Black Eyed Peas with a mexican-american and a filipino guy, released two albums, added a blonde female vocalist and moved to pop-rap. the pop-rap album is recorded over the course of 2001, and is allegedly both interrupted and inspired by 9/11 9/11 album has three singles: let's get retarded, shut up, and a kind of 'do they even know it's christmas' consciousness-raising song called 'where is the love?' about how we just have to love each other. the album is now quadruple platinum after this, will i am starts a tech co and acquires an israeli machine learning company. i think he also made hardware for the early iphone this year he's teaching a course on agentic AI at ASU

It's AI vs AI. Optum (probably using AI) recently denied my doc's request for prior approval on an Rx he felt I needed. I drafted an appeal letter with help from Claude. My physician signed the letter & faxed it to Optum. PA decision reversed. Rx approved. AI vs AI.

@rebeccabultsma @alliekmiller wispr flow

@alliekmiller Hear me out. Let’s invent some little gas-mask thing to have full on sound proof verbal convos with our Claude Code wherever we go.

I don’t think you all understand how powerful Claude Code is from a phone. Telegram, iMessage, remote control, mobile command, dispatch, whatever you have to do. Just get this thing on your phone. My team is going to hold a no-laptop hack day soon, where everyone is forced to leave their desk and just be on a walk or at a restaurant or in a park with their phone (and dictation, I’m sure). Whoever is most productive wins.

When I was consulting for @HBO Silicon Valley, zero-loss compression was the holy grail Richard Hendricks chases that perfect middle-out algo could shrink everything w/out breaking a single bit. Google just did something even more practical for the AI era: TurboQuant compresses LLM key-value caches down to 3 bits per value using random orthogonal rotation + PolarQuant scalar quantization & optional 1-bit QJL residual correction. =>> 6× memory reduction, up to 8× faster attention (on H100), & 0 degradation on LongBench, Needle-in-a-Haystack, and RULER for models like Gemma. No retraining, no calibration needed. Fiction just got out-engineered by reality. 😅💚💚
