It looks as though we are going to have a full house at neuroMONSTER this year! Last week we hit our full capacity.
It's inspiring to see so many people fascinated by the mystery of the brain and the computations underlying intelligence.

Have you joined our fellowship yet? Meet our star ambassadors and fellows who joined us at our Venture Café London event.
What began as a small intimate group has now grown past 1,300 global ambassadors and fellows, creating spaces to connect, network and grow.
We are grateful for all of your time and welcome any and all feedback as we grow together!
Love, Team Thinking About Thinking

✦ EVENT: AI FOR SCIENCE: FROM PRE-SEED TO BREAKTHROUGH
On 2 April, Thinking About Thinking joined Venture Café London for AI for Science: From Pre-Seed to Breakthrough at One Triton Square, in partnership with British Land and Royal London Asset Management.
The event brought together AI-for-Science startups, researchers, and investors to explore how the field is evolving from early-stage experimentation to venture-backed scale. The programme included networking, an innovation showcase, and two panel discussions:
Pre-Raise AI for Science
Post-Raise AI for Science
Speakers included Dr @jcrwhittington, Dr @RMBattleday, Bruno Trentini, Iman Mouloudi, Dan Nicolau, Jascha Achterberg, Eva Sevenster, Kärt Tomberg, Tonya Frolov, Botos Csaba and Sam Olofme ↴

Student and General Early Bird Tickets 𝐒𝐎𝐋𝐃 𝐎𝐔𝐓
Happy to share that we have sold out all Early Bird tickets for AE Global Summit 2026.
That makes two sell outs in one day, with both General Early Bird and Student Early Bird now fully booked. 🧪
It is exciting to see this level of interest so early, with the summit still eight months away.
General tickets and Student tickets are now on sale.
Join us this November at Friends House, London, for AE Global Summit, bringing together researchers, builders, founders, policymakers, and thinkers working on the future of intelligence.

An amazing lineup spanning Neuro, Cog Sci, and AI. Held in a Roman villa with an ancient aqueduct through it!
It’s a unique setting to understand the latest and greatest from the three disciplines of intelligence.
Come!

Today we launched @CallosumAI.
We are building the infrastructure where heterogeneous chips & intelligence co-evolve to solve the world's hardest problems.
Today we present our first results.
Across four large problem spaces, we break SOTA and deliver orders-of-magnitude improvements in capabilities, cost and speed: 12× cheaper deep context. New web SOTA with open-source, 3x cheaper and faster. 2.4× cache speedups. 1,767× faster tool calling. This is the worst our infrastructure will ever be.
We do it by co-evolving heterogeneous chips and multi-agent intelligence - workflows aware of their hardware, models aware of their task graph, kernels aware of their output constraints. An Intelligent System.
