We have brought the most advanced AI multilingual voice tutor to iOS and Android! . At ISSEN, we think we are about to see a massive shift in how language learning works, to voice agent based AI. As models get smarter and learn more about you, the efficiency and fun of learning.

The truth is that nobody knows what the AI model market and meta will look like in 5 yrs. it's likely more breakthroughs will happen and change the dynamics.

This is a great take. If disruption was allowed in health care, housing, education, the world would be very different.

This is a common misconception. Writing code and engineering requires navigating hundreds of files with huge contexts and judgement calls everywhere. Writing a 100 line self contained script is not software engineering. LLms are not close to humans yet. Maybe a few more years.

Given that Claude 3.5 Sonnet is better at writing code than the average computer science grad, what’s the future career path for junior engineers? . If you’re enrolled in a boot camp, it’s time to ask for a refund.

Why do ML people choose such terrible variable names like "m" and "l"?.

The coming economic boom from AI will increase demand for dollars, but it will greatly increase demand for hard crypto assets.

The support of tariffs recently is concerning. This is the path of corrupt latin american countries and communist regimes, it leads to lose-lose situations and decreased economic growth.

In the new world of AI agents, the default payment rails will be on blockchains, and agreements will be encoded onchain.

The true benchmark that will test for AGI is getting to gold league on a game like Age of Empires 4 in less than 100 matches.
