DJI Osmo Action 4 Camera with Dual Touchscreens Sees Price Crash, Did Amazon Make a Mistake?

Amazon is pulling all the stops on Prime Day, cutting the price on some of the most popular items from the largest brands to their all-time low price.

These are the best new MacBook deals this July: options starting at $649

In the Apple Silicon era, MacBooks have become more affordable than ever – with brand new models starting as low as $649.

ChatGPT is testing disruptive Study Together feature

OpenAI's "Study together" mode has been spotted in the wild, and it could help students prepare for exams directly from ChatGPT. We don't have the details yet, but references to ChatGPT Study Mode were first spotted in May, and testers noticed it widely earlier today. The Study together mode, which doesn't work right now, might allow students to either invite their friends to study on ChatGPT or have the AI act as a companion. We just don't know how it works yet, but it could disrupt the educ

OpenAI says GPT-5 will unify breakthroughs from different models

OpenAI has again confirmed that it will unify multiple models into one and create GPT-5, which is expected to ship sometime in the summer. ChatGPT currently has too many capable models for different tasks. While the models are powerful, it can be confusing because all models have identical names. But another issue is that OpenAI maintains an "o" lineup for reasoning capabilities, while the 4o and other models have multi-modality. With GPT-5, OpenAI plans to unify the breakthrough in its lineu

1945 TV Console Showed Two Programs at Once

As I try to write this article, my friend and I have six different screens attached to three types of devices. We’re working in the same room but on our own projects—separate yet together, a comfortable companionship. I had never really thought of the proliferation of screens as a peacekeeping tool until I stumbled across one of Allen B. DuMont’s 1950s dual-screen television sets. DuMont’s idea was to let two people in the same room watch different programs. It reminded me of my early childhood

I don't think AGI is right around the corner

“Things take longer to happen than you think they will, and then they happen faster than you thought they could.” - Rudiger Dornbusch I’ve had a lot of discussions on my podcast where we haggle out timelines to AGI. Some guests think it’s 20 years away - others 2 years. Here’s where my thoughts stand as of June 2025. Continual learning Sometimes people say that even if all AI progress totally stopped, the systems of today would still be far more economically transformative than the internet.

Nobody has a personality anymore: we are products with labels

Therapy-speak has taken over our language. It is ruining how we talk about romance and relationships, narrowing how we think about hurt and suffering, and now, we are losing the words for who we are. Nobody has a personality anymore. In a therapeutic culture, every personality trait becomes a problem to be solved. Anything too human—every habit, every eccentricity, every feeling too strong—has to be labelled and explained. And this inevitably expands over time, encompassing more and more of us,

‘Daemons of the Shadow Realm’ WIll Be a ‘FullMetal Alchemist’ Anime Reunion

The enduring legacy of Hiromu Arakawa’s FullMetal Alchemist can be partially owed to its pair of anime adaptations by animation studio Bones. Since then, both creator and company have moved on to other ventures—the latter has notably adapted the likes of My Hero Academia and the newly premiered Gachiakuta, among others. Now, 15 years after FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood concluded, Bones is back at adapting Arakawa’s work, namely her fantasy manga Daemons of the Shadow Realm. During Crunchyrol

How the Binding of Two Brain Molecules Creates Memories That Last a Lifetime

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. When Todd Sacktor was about to turn 3, his 4-year-old sister died of leukemia. “An empty bedroom next to mine. A swing set with two seats instead of one,” he said, recalling the lingering traces of her presence in the house. “There was this missing person—never spoken of—for which I had only one memory.” That memory, faint but enduring, was set in the downstairs den of their home. A young Sacktor asked his sister to read him a book

Apple’s F1 movie expected to hit $300M at the box office this weekend

Less than two weeks after its release, Apple’s F1 The Movie is about to cross the $300 million mark at the global box office. That puts it more than halfway to topping the combined worldwide grosses of all its previous theatrical runs, and validates its ambitions for big screen releases. On track for a record run During its opening weekend, F1 The Movie is estimated to have taken in about $145 million, which put it on par with the $176 million opening weekend total box office of Killers of the

Just Ask for Generalization (2021)

Generalizing to what you want may be easier than optimizing directly for what you want. We might even ask for "consciousness". This blog post outlines a key engineering principle I’ve come to believe strongly in for building general AI systems with deep learning. This principle guides my present-day research tastes and day-to-day design choices in building large-scale, general-purpose ML systems. Discoveries around Neural Scaling Laws, unsupervised pretraining on Internet-scale datasets, and o

The Prime Reasons to Avoid Amazon

Amazon’s now-legendary “Prime Day” is July 8-11. Much like Black Friday or Cyber Monday, this means sales on lots of items on Amazon’s vast marketplace, and as such many people flock to the giant’s website to get sweet deals on everything from computers to small kitchen appliances and more. While many of us are feeling the financial crunch more than ever, I urge you, dear reader, to resist the allure. I don’t typically have strong opinions about where people chose to shop or how they decide to s

Optimizing Tool Selection for LLM Workflows with Differentiable Programming

Modern agentic architectures rely heavily on chaining LLM calls. A typical pattern looks like: Use an LLM to decide which tool to invoke Call the tool (e.g. search, calculator, API) Use another LLM call to interpret the result and generate a final response This structure is easy to reason about, simple to prototype, and generalizes well. But it scales poorly. Each LLM call incurs latency, cost, and token overhead. More subtly, it compounds context: every step includes not only the original q
