“And now there are things that I can’t unsee.”

AI is reshaping particle physics. And physics is reshaping AI.

I spoke with @mitphysics.bsky.social prof + NSF's AI for Physics director Jesse Thaler about AI, the LHC, diffusion models, and the future of discovery.

In the block universe, past, present, and future all simultaneously exist. Turns out, Now & Laters were really onto something. #physics #specialrelativity #confectionarywisdom

What if we could integrate, play with, and control lab hardware as easily as we do software?

Thrilled to have sat down with @rickwierenga.bsky.social of @pylabrobot.bsky.social to learn how the movement he's leading is enabling more scientists, hackers, and startups to “ship science”!

“I think you’d be shocked how often people are willing to chat and help you out.”

Inspired by my recent sit-down with @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social's Alishba Imran, now a Research Fellow with the @arcinstitute.org, on how she broke into AI for Science.
