Terence Tao has an IQ above 200.
Youngest gold medalist in Math Olympiad history. Fields Medal winner. The greatest living mathematician by nearly any measure.
And he just said something most people aren’t ready for.
Tao: “This whole era of AI is teaching us that our idea of what intelligence is, is not really accurate.”
We spent centuries building civilization on one assumption.
That intelligence was sacred. Irreducible. Uniquely ours.
The one thing that made the entire human story make sense.
Then AI started solving things we swore only we could.
Chess. Language. Vision. Math.
And every time, we reached for the same defense.
That’s not real intelligence. It’s just tricks. Just pattern matching. Just an algorithm.
Tao: “You look at how it’s done and it doesn’t feel like intelligence.”
So we moved the line.
Again. And again. And again.
Because intelligence was supposed to feel like something. Something deep. Something we could point to and say… this is what separates us from everything else.
But AI kept solving the problems.
And that feeling never arrived.
Tao: “We were looking for some elusive, intelligent way of thinking and we don’t see it in the tools that actually solve our goals.”
Here’s what makes it worse.
Large language models work by predicting the next word. One word at a time. No grand architecture. No deep understanding. Just probability.
And it works.
Tao: “Maybe that’s actually a lot of what humans do as well.”
The greatest living mathematician just told you human thought might run on the same machinery.
Not some transcendent spark.
Pattern recognition. Prediction. One thought, one decision, one word at a time.
We built religion around intelligence. Philosophy around it. An entire species identity around it.
And a machine running probability just held up a mirror.
We didn’t lose intelligence to AI.
We just finally saw what it always was.
What haunts us isn’t that machines learned to think.
It’s that thinking was never what we needed it to be.

鲸鱼兄弟们好,我是做 DeepSeek-TUI 的那个美国佬。
说真的,特别想跟国内的鲸鱼兄弟们一起混——但我的翻墙技能仅限于写代码,微信到现在都没搞定,属实有点丢人。
求各位大佬帮个忙:
1)帮忙转发扩散一下,让这个开源终端工具翻过高墙被兄弟们看到
2)顺手帮我验证个微信号,我想建个群,大家一起聊 DeepSeek、聊开源、聊怎么把 agent 做得更好
作为交换,我发誓死守 cargo install 这条安装路径,绝不让任何一个兄弟受 npm 的苦。
顺带一提,这段话是 DeepSeek 帮我润色的——感谢鲸鱼赐我流利中文 🙏

Start learning mobile robotics now! 📚
University of Michigan released a course on autonomous mobile robotics.
It's all for free on YouTube as a series of 29 video lectures covering theory and application of probabilistic and geometric techniques for autonomous mobile robotics.
Topics include Bayesian filtering, stochastic representations of the environment, motion and sensor models for mobile robots, algorithms for mapping and localization, and application to autonomous marine, ground, and aerial vehicles.
Lecture series includes:
→ Bayes Filters and Kalman Filtering
→ Nonlinear Kalman Filtering
→ Particle Filtering
→ Symmetry & Rigid Body Motion
And more covering the fundamentals of mobile robotics perception and navigation.
University courses on mobile robotics typically cost thousands in tuition. UMich-CURLY is releasing the full lecture series for free, democratizing access to robotics knowledge (which I simply LOVE! 🫶🏼)
For anyone wanting to start working in autonomous systems, these fundamentals: Bayesian filtering, localization, mapping, are essential.
Now they're available to anyone with internet access. 🎓

@CuriosityonX It's like searching for a tiny needle in a haystack. Good luck in even finding Earth 2000 light-years away.

🇮🇳 A man in India dug up his deceased sister's skeleton and brought it to the bank just to prove she had died.
He'd been trying to withdraw money from her account for months.
Staff kept telling him the account holder needed to appear in person.
He's illiterate and had no idea a death certificate existed.
The bank got what it asked for.
