¡Qué abuso! La Fiscalía de Niños de Santiago y la Defensoria Pública parecen confabularse para quitarle bebé a una joven madre y entregárselo a su padre Valiéndose de una denuncia realizada “por medios digitales” por el padre de un menor de edad de casi dos años, la Fiscalía de

Ever since I made a video about Fourier Transforms, one of the most requested topics on the channel has been its close cousin, the Laplace Transform. I've been having a lot of fun animating a mini-series about this topic, and the main part is now out. https://t.co/oKawJAGyx1

In 2016 Geoffrey Hinton said “we should stop training radiologists now" since AI would soon be better at their jobs. He was right: models have outperformed radiologists on benchmarks for ~a decade. Yet radiology jobs are at record highs, with an average salary of $520k. Why?

This is an unwise statement that can only make people confused about what LLMs can or cannot do. Let me tell you something: Math is NOT about solving this kind of ad hoc optimization problems. Yeah, by scraping available data and then clustering it, LLMs can sometimes solve some
Claim: gpt-5-pro can prove new interesting mathematics. Proof: I took a convex optimization paper with a clean open problem in it and asked gpt-5-pro to work on it. It proved a better bound than what is in the paper, and I checked the proof it's correct. Details below.

It's important to remember that "technology influencers" can be bad role models. Many encourage people to be "fans of technology" instead of actual developers of technology. Hot takes are easy, writing good code is not.

Canceling Terry Tao's grants because… antisemitism. That's the AGI president for ya. Tired of winning yet?

tl;dr - IPAM, the Institute of Pure and Applied Mathematics at UCLA, will shut down in a few months if their NSF funding isn't restored or replaced. The birthplace of compressed sensing, as well as lots of advances in ML and AI later picked up by industry.
Terence Tao has written a thread on Mathstodon about the damage being caused by the grant freezes at UCLA. https://t.co/6yJzG42Jxb

In the fall of 1972, President Nixon announced that "the rate of increase of inflation was decreasing". Probably the first time a sitting president used the 3rd derivative to increase the chances of reelection.

Imagine cutting a grant to Terence Tao. What hope is there for us mere mortals?
