Scientists are discovering the process that supplies the brain with a remarkably rich picture of what is happening throughout the body — a picture that is mostly hidden from our consciousness. nyti.ms/4prNoRf
Mapping the Brain’s Sense of What Goes On Inside the Body
Scientists are learning how the brain knows what’s happening throughout the body, and how that process might go awry in some psychiatric disorders.

Besides US bigtech, Huawei is hiring countless top #mathematicians in Europe.
Why are the global European players too blind to see that true innovation will be driven from the foundational level, not just from applied engineering?
So much talent here, but so little ambition in corporate strategy.

I don't see a future for human writers where we just paste together AI summaries of articles we did not spend any time grappling with in a way that stokes thoughts in our own heads. Doing the thinking is the whole point.

Technical debt that has accumulated over decades cannot be resolved simply by adding a thin layer of agentic AI on top.
I am not against using it. People just need to understand its capabilities and limitations.

Demand for software development and programming is overall going down - not true though for some specific skills.
In the long run the demand for mathematical modeling and formal methods skills will go up as the AI playground will only last for a while.

We have some very cool capabilities in our product now, combining knowledge graphs and LLMs via our rich set of platform APIs, LlamaIndex and MCP - it feels absolutely magic.
Properly designed knowledge graphs are a real game changer for generative AI.

The past five years have taught us that “intelligence” is actually a bundle of separable capacities. Language can do amazing things without conscious subjectivity, long-term memory, planning, or intent.
