Jerry Del Rio Hopefully it will be more affordable in the future to run your own model.

Anyone performing this ???

Is this a generalised recommendation? What about people with hypertension? Stent implanted person?

The part this post leaves out changes the conclusion entirely. The 20% drop only hit participants who asked AI for direct answers. People who used AI for hints or clarifications showed no significant impairment. Same study, same data. That is not a technology problem. It is a design problem. I build Companion OS for people in crisis and recovery. The AI never solves for the person. It holds space while the person does the thinking. Dependency or capacity. The design decides. Preprint:

I think AI may help those borderline students achieve a pass or boost students' grades a bit when they are near boundaries. Particularly, those students falling between 48-62%, especially. And even some of those around 68-69%. I do not think AI will do the magic to trasform someone that would have scored 48% into a >70%. But it may suffice to bring them over the edge of a pass mark, at Master level, i.e. 50-53%. Similarly a 68% may be boosted to a 70-72%, unlikely it will go to a 85%. Often students ask AI for help in the structure of their essays. AI will suggest sections with titles; allocation of topics to each sections; bullet points of content to cover for each theme; etc. Thus, if our marksheets are too prescriptive, for example if they require to allocate x-many points to structure, then of course there will be a general boost of final marks. We need to change our marksheets to make them fit for purpose in the AI era! Or switch to in person exams on paper!

Energym🔋..an interesting video. Those who are unemployed, retired or wealthy, have this issue of purpose. Boredom sets in... though a person becomes more knowledgeable. 🤔 Guess we'll just have to experience it.

Building real production AI agents is where most learning actually happens because you move from theory to dealing with real constraints like latency, API failures, rate limits, and cost optimization. For example, an AI agent that works perfectly in a notebook often behaves differently in production when you introduce retries, logging, and real user traffic, which forces you to understand system design, not just the model.

Though not still in league of claude code or even codex but the direction is right and one cannot underestimate google

I don't think so. This is only a new product that google created to trap people to think that is possible to build agentic workflows without deterministic tools. They just killed the antigravity IDE to replace it with this thing that is agentic, but surprise, they gonna charge more for that. Nothing is free

Assessment shapes behaviour. Change the assessment, change the behaviour. When grades depend mainly on recall, students optimize for recall. No amount of policy is going to change that. Under the present education system, this is what produces “fake learning”: the outward signs of achievement are present, but the underlying mental model remains thin. It is a mismatch between what schools assess and what they claim to value. If students can pass tests without being able to explain, apply, or challenge ideas, then the system is overvaluing memorization and underweighting comprehension. This is not really students faking learning, the system is causing it. In today's information-rich environments, that problem becomes more serious. Learning now depends not only on knowing information, but on judging sources, testing claims, and separating fact from misinformation. Either education doubles down and becomes increasingly optimized for so called measurable and standardized "learning". Or institutions deliberately protect the parts of learning that resist today's widespread automation: judgement, interpretation, mentorship, attention, character, independent thought.

Wow, what a money farming machine... to Google

lol all that AI and they didn’t bother to remove the AI chop slop purple! All power and no craftsmanship.

Interesting results! Might be more about reliance than brain impairment, though. When people quickly get used to AI assistance, it's unsurprising they stumble once it's removed unexpectedly. It's like taking away a crutch without warning... not a brain flaw, just human habit. 😉

Interesting, it's not everyone that would learn core in-depth AI software creation, some will just be capable of learning the usage of AI tools and software to make their work, life and activities less conspicuous and stressful...

the rate limits are obnoxious

We all need a sense of purpose, otherwise our lives have little meaning. As you shared AI "should be designed to make humans more capable, more creative, and more central to the future we are building." not to make us redundant.

I believe it's just 45 secs to 1 mins will make a huge difference.gradually one can extend to 3 & finally to 5 mins ...

That’s a critical question and we need to answer that very quickly to avoid humanity implosion 😳
