EPISODI PRECEDENTI

AI’s most practical application may not be automating existing jobs. It may be helping people create jobs that don’t exist yet. This is the premise behind BrainBank.world, an idea development platform that guides users from vague concepts to testable business ideas. The platform emerged from a simp…
Picture the typical all-hands meeting at a tech company these days. The CEO goes on stage, animated, backlit by a slide that reads: “AI-Powered Transformation: 2,800 Roles Optimized.” The word “optimized” was doing a lot of heavy lifting. It meant eliminated. Customer operations, content moderation…

The Brain-AI Gap

This article illustrates how artificial intelligence’s path to general powerful intelligence will require architectural changes rather than continued scaling. We’re not facing a temporary bottleneck but a fundamental mismatch between transformer architectures and biological intelligence. Recent res…
The Pattern We Should Have Seen Coming Our ancestors consumed somewhere between 30 teaspoons and 6 pounds of sugar annually, depending on their environment. Today, Americans average 22-32 teaspoons daily—roughly 100 pounds per year. This isn’t a failure of willpower. It’s the predictable result of …

He broke his thigh upon landing and later blamed his failure on not using eagle feathers. For centuries, would-be aviators repeated this pattern: they copied birds’ external appearance wi…
As humanity inches towards ever more powerful AI, we find ourselves caught between two destructive extremes: the doomer despair that sees only catastrophe ahead, and the boomer/accelerationist overconfidence that pushes forward without adequate consideration of consequences. Yet emerging from ancie…
A Conversation with History Last week, I found myself in an unexpectedly intimate conversation with a 19th-century Peranakan kamcheng pot. Not metaphorically - literally. At a presentation during ATxSG, AskMona and the OpenAI Forum demonstrated their groundbreaking collaboration with Singapore's Pe…

Computer Empathy

While other teenagers kicked soccer balls across sun-drenched fields during lunch breaks at my high school in Italy, I found sanctuary in the cool darkness of the physics lab. There, among oscilloscopes and circuit boards, I built a world I could understand. My soldering iron became an extension of…
On July 19, 1989 at 37,000 feet above America's heartland, in the cockpit of United Airlines Flight 232, Captain Al Haynes was enjoying a routine flight when a catastrophic failure changed everything. Without warning, the DC-10's tail engine exploded, severing all three hydraulic systems - the airc…
