Infinite context windows seem to present a very large problem to using AI. Today's models already leak too much old information into current responses, a distraction that is part of why they are cognitively exhausting to use

The point of medical AI is not replacing presence. It is removing the paperwork and latency that destroy presence. Better intake, documentation, follow up and escalation should give doctors more time with patients, not less. x.com/i/status/2051633007476…

💬 Viewpoint by Canio Martinelli, MD, MSc, Vincenzo Carnevale, PhD, MSc, Alfredo Ercoli, MD, PhD, and Antonio Giordano, MD, PhD: #AI yields higher empathy scores in text assessments but cannot perform clinical examination or patient care. Clinician oversight and presence remain essential in #Medicine.

Ran an experiment on who actually gets smarter working with AI. It wasn't the cleverest people. It wasn't even the most technically fluent. My @WSJ piece today on what it was instead: wsj.com/tech/ai/is-ai-smarte…

I had 2 separate articles go #1: one @CNBC and one @FastCompany
But many readers didn’t seem to know, both were excerpts from different chapters in my new book 𝑹𝒐𝒃𝒐𝒕-𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒐𝒇: “When Machines Have All The Answers, Build Better People.”

Exercise is good for the brain. But why?
This morning in The Science and Experience of Energy we explore the effects of exercise on brain mitochondrial. And why making more mitochondria might in part be why moving keeps our brain healthy.
