We are grateful to @XTXmarkets for this extraordinary commitment. At GTF, we’re excited to help ensure exceptional talent is found and supported worldwide.  @globtalent @Patrick_Gaule
Global Talent Fund@GlobTalent

1/2 Announcing: A $40M commitment from @xtxmarkets to @GlobTalent Many exceptionally gifted young mathematicians and scientists never get the chance to develop their talents. We are working to change that. GTF and XTX co-founded BIG Talent Scholars in 2023. With this new commitment, we will bring 150 more scholars to the world's top universities.

UPDATE: There is huge potential for AI in accelerating science, but identifying and resolving specific bottlenecks will be critical. That's why we excited about this partnership, and its long-term potential. x.com/tkalil2050/sta…

Is industry doing better than academia at catching AI hallucinations? From the small but rigorous sample from @NeurIPSConf below: simple answer suggests YES It's long overdue. Especially in the age of AI slop: we need a better mechanism than peer review experimental-history.com/p/the-rise-and…
Alex Cui@alexcdot

Okay so, we just found that over 50 papers published at @Neurips 2025 have AI hallucinations I don't think people realize how bad the slop is right now It's not just that researchers from @GoogleDeepMind, @Meta, @MIT, @Cambridge_Uni are using AI - they allowed LLMs to generate hallucinations in their papers and didn't notice at all. It's insane that these made it through peer review👇

A beautiful thing - my son watching a world record being smashed at the Paralympics by someone with the same small arm he was born with. Can’t be what you can’t see 🔥

Hi! After months of trying to find workable wifi in ♾ cafes + squatting with friends, @_CommonMagic is looking for a desk or small office. Ideally Soho or Shoreditch, sharing with like minds. Bonus if bookable space for workshops + events. DM if you have space going!

@profcikara Genuinely didn't think I could admire Danny more. Now that I know he's the Sima Aunty of you & Carey - I was wrong. I now hold him in even higher regard.

Many of you will share tributes today to Danny Kahneman, highlighting how he informed your work or paved the way for your career, and so on. Today I would like to honor DK for financing my relationship and eventual marriage to @morewedge (1/n)

The new tagline for twitter/X is “Blaze your glory!” I hope they offer a less enthusiastic option for British users. Perhaps something along the lines of “give it a go” or “it is what it is”

It’s @EQLHER day! Thrilled to see the first panel talk about the search for equity as a diverse founder, and the importance for VC funds to do better. Shanika from @BritishBBank shared: “As a founder, tell your story, embrace the fact that diversity is an opportunity.“
