Time is our most valuable resource — you can never get it back once you spend it. Using my time wisely helps me get my work done faster and more efficiently, so I can finish earlier to spend time with my daughter or go to the beach. It’s easier said than done, of course, because I was hooked on YouTube and social media apps. They were all competing for my attention and distracting me from all my tasks at hand. I recently found myself falling into these rabbit holes during the day, so I decided to swap my entertainment and…

Companies hate to admit it, but the road to production-level AI deployment is littered with proof of concepts (PoCs) that go nowhere, or failed projects that never deliver on their goals. In certain domains, there’s little tolerance for iteration, especially in something like life sciences, when the AI application is facilitating new treatments to markets or diagnosing diseases. Even slightly inaccurate analyses and assumptions early on can create sizable downstream drift in ways that can be concerning.In analyzing dozens of AI PoCs that sailed on through to full production use — or didn’t — six common pitfalls emerge. Interestingly, it’s…

OpenAI has committed to spending $1.15 trillion (updated to $1.4 trillion) on hardware & cloud infrastructure between 2025 & 2035. OpenAI announced they would hit $100B in 2027 which is earlier than expected. OpenAI expects to have a $20 billion per year revenue run rate at the end of this year (2025). If OpenAI hits those numbers then the AI revenue would roughly aligned with the AI capex commitments. The ($1.1 Trillion) spending breaks down across seven major vendors:Broadcom ($350B),Oracle ($300B),Microsoft ($250B),Nvidia ($100B),AMD ($90B),Amazon AWS ($38B), &CoreWeave ($22B). Tomasz Tunguz, Venture Capitalist at Theory Ventures, generates a basic spending plan…

Switching on two-factor authentication (2FA) is literally one of the best and easiest security upgrades you can make. However, when I switched phones and lost access to some of my accounts, it dawned on me that not just any 2FA solution will do. While many 2FA authenticator apps solve this problem, they also create dependence. Options like Google Authenticator and Microsoft Authenticator allow easy setup, but you don’t control the ecosystem to which they tie your codes. So, after several resets, it was clear I needed something different that actually belonged to me, that I have complete control over. I…

Researchers at Google’s Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) have discovered that hackers are creating malware that can harness the power of large language models (LLMs) to rewrite itself on the fly. An experimental malware family dubbed PROMPTFLUX, identified by GTIG in a recent blog post, can rewrite its own code to avoid detection. It’s an escalation that could make future malware far more difficult to detect, further highlighting growing cybersecurity concerns brought on by the advent and widespread adoption of generative AI. Tools like PROMPTFLUX “dynamically generate malicious scripts, obfuscate their own code to evade detection, and leverage AI models to…
