When I say this medicine stopped my brain from having thoughts, I really mean that I could barely think for months. It's why I stopped tweeting - I actually couldn't think. And that wasn't anywhere near the worst of the side effects. ChatGPT enabled me to find out what the medicine was doing, and create these graphs to help me figure out how to come off this medication safely. I struggled to research on my own with the state my mind was in, and I could not have estimated these possible receptor occupancy curves even if my mind was working better. ChatGPT was a godsend when doctors failed me. Read my piece below

I want to tell some of the backstory of this NBC deal that isn’t captured in all of today’s headlines and stories. So here goes, my first long post! In some ways, this is the anti-AI business story. It's about a professional relationship between two humans that's spanned more than a decade. In 2013, Rebecca Blumenstein (@RBlumenstein) hired me at The Wall Street Journal. Not everyone was convinced I was the right person to replace Walt Mossberg. Rebecca interviewed me, believed in me and became one of my biggest advocates. She left the Journal two years later, but by then we'd already built something—we’d talk about stories, the changing media landscape, interview techniques, etc. She remained my mentor. We'd have dinner or drinks. We both stayed committed to keeping in each other's lives. At some of those dinners over the last few years, we started talking about what I wanted to do next. How I’d outgrown The Wall Street Journal and wanted to build something of my own, but how much I still loved working in a big newsroom and still believed in the power of a mainstream news outlet to reach the everyday people who are confused, curious or just a little scared of new technology. After months of working on it together, we came up with something new. A model that bridges what I want to do as an independent journalist at my new company, New Things, with the ambitious journalism, power and reach of NBC News. AI is changing business in enormous ways. It's letting me build one right now at record speed. But we all have Claudes, ChatGPTs and Geminis now. What every young journalist and professional really needs is a Rebecca.
AI really can help education: Randomized controlled experiment on high school students found a GPT-4o powered tutor that personalized problems for students raised final test scores by .15 SD, "equivalent to as much as six to nine months of additional schooling by some estimates"
Tried it out. So the product scans stuff, then it shows Reddit tells me people post about my company, surfaces competitors I already knew about ages ago, wraps it in a dashboard, and wants me to scream “OMG we saved $60k. At this point I’m convinced half of startup hype is just polished demos. How’s this the “ultimate CMO” for me
Breast cancer is now the top cause of cancer death for American women ages 20-49. Cases are rising fastest in younger women. Get checked.
We’ve trained a multimodal AI model to turn routine pathology slides into spatial proteomics, with the potential to reduce time and cost while expanding access to cancer care.
Florida man sold his house in just 5 days after letting ChatGPT handle the entire process instead of a real estate agent The AI handled pricing, marketing, showings, and even helped draft the contract
"Holy crap, it worked! . . . It raises the question, if we can do this for a dog, why aren’t we rolling this out to all humans with cancer?" A tech entrepreneur adopted a dog in 2019. In 2024, the dog was diagnosed with mast cell cancer. He used ChatGPT to brainstorm solutions, ultimately coming up with a blueprint for an mRNA vaccine. He then went to a @UNSW scientist to help create and administer the bespoke vaccine. Initially incredulous, the scientist did the work. The dog's tumor has shrunken in half, and the scientist is "gobsmacked that this puppy lover with no background in biology had cracked the code." H/T @AlecStapp
ChatGPT's retention is in a league of its own. 71% of users still active at Month 10... nearly 2x the next closest AI app. Most consumer apps would kill for these numbers. Full analysis in Part 2 of our State of Consumer AI series 👇 x.com/apoorv03/statu…
