The Download: OpenAI’s open-weight models, and the future of internet search

technologyreview.com Rhiannon Williams 2025-12-10 17:10:00

The news: OpenAI has finally released its first open-weight large language models since 2019’s GPT-2. Unlike the models available through OpenAI’s web interface, these new open models can be freely downloaded, run, and even modified on laptops and other local devices. Why it matters: These releases re-establish OpenAI as a presence for users of open models. That’s particularly notable at a time when Meta, which had previously dominated the American open-model landscape with its Llama models, ma

If You Ask Google Why It Sucks Now, AI Overviews Will Viciously Bully Google and Itself

futurism.com Unknown 2025-12-13 03:18:54

Google's notorious AI Overviews feature appears to have finally gotten it right — but for all the wrong reasons. As flagged on Bluesky, if you ask Google why its own search engine feels so useless lately, the company's AI feature will provide multiple and excoriating reasons — including brutal attacks against itself, Google's much-maligned AI Overviews. In that Bluesky post, Google responded broadly to the hilariously colloquial query of "why is google ass now" with a self-flagellating list of

Content-Aware Spaced Repetition

news.ycombinator.com Giacomo Randazzo 2025-12-14 16:32:11

Content-aware Spaced Repetition Spaced repetition systems are powerful, but they have a fundamental blind spot: they don’t understand what your flashcards are about. To your SRS, a card asking “what’s the capital of Italy?” and another asking “what country is Rome the capital of?” are treated independently, each with its own isolated review history. It has no concept that reviewing related material should reinforce your memory of the whole topic. At the heart of every SRS is a memory model wh

AI interview bots spark backlash from frustrated job applicants

techspot.com Skye Jacobs 2025-12-16 03:22:00

The big picture: As more employers turn to AI to manage overburdened recruiting pipelines, the debate about its merits – and drawbacks – continues. Some job-seekers opt out of opportunities altogether when robots come calling. Others, resigned to the new normal, accept these digital gatekeepers to find work. Both sides, for now, seem likely to remain divided as the hiring process rapidly evolves. As employers increasingly automate their recruitment processes, job interviews themselves are under

The next time you get buttoned-up and sit down for a long-awaited job interview, you might not find a human on the other end of the call. Instead, job-hunters are now joining Zoom meetings only to be greeted by AI interviewers. Candidates tell Fortune they’re either confused, intrigued, or straight-up dejected when the robotic, faceless bots join the calls. “Looking for a job right now is so demoralizing and soul-sucking, that to submit yourself to that added indignity is just a step too far,”
