I’ve seen plenty of “we can now do this…” but “this” can’t be equated to an improved measurable outcome (revenue, customer satisfaction, improved learning). Lot of “more spend, same result” at the moment. What can often improve is speed - but orgs not used to measuring that

To explain the significance of this, Anthropic moved enterprises to token-based billing in Q1 2026. This is at most four months of having to pay the true cost of their token burn and they’re already begging for mercy. There is a ceiling to the revenues of these companies.

TL;DR-slop. Pope issues a passionate call for the Human to continue to be at the centre of our world, not AI. So, of course people use AI to summarise it for their social posts, rather than read it (TL;DR = Too Long, Didn't Read) 🤦‍♂️

When I was growing up I expected quick sand to be more of an issue in adulthood than it has been. Conscientious watching “Ice cold in Alex”

You have 10 developers. AI doubles their productivity. Do you now need 5 developers, or can you tackle twice as many opportunities. Yes, this is a question about 'cost reduction' or 'growth opportunity' mindset

Um. Why not just start the conveyor belt 30cm earlier? Would save a fortune. No robot or manual handling needed

@adcock_brett looks like a weeee bit of teleoperation here (misses a bunch of packages -> adjusts headset -> no longer misses)

IT departments that lock the wallpaper to some boring corporate image are boring and mean. Just let me have a picture of my dog.

Had a coffee this week with a recent-former CCO of a public tech co who told me their execs created voice models of themselves with @ElevenLabs so they didn’t have to record their quarterly earnings prepared remarks anymore.

This is important to know if you’re in HR and are using resume scanning tools. Your HR system may be denying you the best candidates
Nav Toor@heynavtoor

Researchers sent the same resume to an AI hiring tool twice. Same qualifications. Same experience. Same skills. One version was written by a real human. The other was rewritten by ChatGPT. The AI picked the ChatGPT version 97.6% of the time. A team from the University of Maryland, the National University of Singapore, and Ohio State just published the receipt. They took 2,245 real human-written resumes pulled from a professional resume site from before ChatGPT existed, so the human writing was actually human. Then they had seven of the most-used AI models in the world rewrite each one. GPT-4o. GPT-4o-mini. GPT-4-turbo. LLaMA 3.3-70B. Qwen 2.5-72B. DeepSeek-V3. Mistral-7B. Then they asked each AI to pick the better resume. Every model picked itself. GPT-4o hit 97.6%. LLaMA-3.3-70B hit 96.3%. Qwen-2.5-72B hit 95.9%. DeepSeek-V3 hit 95.5%. The real human almost never won. Then the researchers tried the obvious objection. Maybe the AI is just better at writing. So they had real humans grade the resumes for actual quality and ran the experiment again, controlling for it. The result was worse. Each AI kept picking itself even when human judges rated the human-written version as clearer, more coherent, and more effective. It gets worse. The AIs do not just prefer AI over humans. They prefer themselves over other AIs. DeepSeek-V3 picked its own resumes 69% more often than LLaMA's. GPT-4o picked its own 45% more often than LLaMA's. Each model can recognize and reward its own dialect. Then the researchers ran the simulation that ends careers. Same job. 24 occupations. Same qualifications. The only variable was whether the candidate used the same AI as the screening tool. Candidates using that AI were 23% to 60% more likely to be shortlisted. Worst gap was in sales, accounting, and finance. 99% of large companies now run AI on incoming resumes. Most of them use GPT-4o. The paper just proved GPT-4o picks GPT-4o 97.6% of the time. If you wrote your own cover letter this week, you did not lose to a better candidate. You lost to a worse candidate who paid OpenAI 20 dollars. Your qualifications do not matter if the AI prefers its own handwriting over yours.

Harvard has added a mandatory "AI Module" to expository writing curriculum. This is really great. Too many professors and students think AI is only meant to cheat on written assignments, which is not true at all. Learn to write. Learn to use AI. thecrimson.com/article/2026/4…

Codex is one of the most powerful AI agents for research work. But most academics don't know how to get started on it. They're still stuck with ChatGPT. Here's a step-by-step tutorial to help you get started on Codex. Codex 101 for academics:

Custom @NotebookLM cover art and "creator's notes" are great for sharing public notebooks, but designing your own covers is pretty fun for your private notebook collection as well. (I used Slide Decks to generate a range of potential images and then picked ones I liked.)

You can now add custom cover art and descriptions to any of your notebooks 🥳 This is perfect for curating an aesthetic grid or putting a personalized touch on your notebook before sharing it with the world. (We recommend uploading a 16x9 image, specifically of your hero)

Sorry if you’re on the New Outlook - it won’t let you import or export your rules, so this trick only works with Classic Outlook and Gmail

This is so good - maybe, instead of AI managing your inbox, get AI to edit\write your inbox rules (didn’t know you could do that). Many scenarios of “I need AI to…” could be handled by an Inbox rule

back in October I spent a couple of weeks on a complex training approach to get Claude Code to triage my inbox. by the end, I threw it away for something that's performed WAY better but I don't see people doing, so I thought I'd share: 🧵

@Msft365Insider Um, are you sure it’s in Copilot Chat? None of the linked articles say that. Great if it is, but also surprising that the powerful model arrives in the free version of M365 Copilot first. Or is it that we’re now all confused about the M365 Copilot product naming?
