Making AI Forgetful Can Save On Costs
Researchers from Sakana AI have created a new technique that teaches LLMs to be selective about what they remember, helping models forget the fluff and focus on the essentials, cutting compute costs by up to 75%.

Why Feeding AI Fake Data Will Break Everything
AI is struggling—not because it’s lazy, but because it’s underfed with real, human-generated data. The overuse of synthetic data is pushing models into a downward spiral called 'model collapse.'

Data Hungry
AI Has Reached The Limit Of The Internet’s Data 🤯

AI might have a new problem: it’s running out of stuff to learn from.

OpenAI co-founder Ilya Sutskever says the field may be nearing 'peak data,' as the internet only holds so much usable information. Sutskever compared training data to fossil fuels—finite and increasingly tough to dig up. With traditional pre-training techniques struggling to scale, the AI industry is exploring alternatives like synthetic data and extra computing power during AI system use.

Future AI might think more independently, which sounds cool—until you realize that big brains might also mean bigger surprises (and unpredictability).

Have we taken it too far?
Human Misuse Of AI Is Causing Chaos 🥲

Forget worrying about sentient robots plotting world domination—the real problem with AI is very human.

In 2025, the biggest risks won’t come from artificial superintelligence, but from how people misuse AI. Lawyers are getting sanctioned for citing fake AI-generated cases, while deepfakes sow distrust and confusion in everything from politics to pop culture. Companies slap “AI” on flawed tools, which can have devastating real-world consequences, like wrongful fraud accusations in the Netherlands.

The biggest threat from AI is ultimately how we handle it—or fail to. We have to get smarter before things spiral further… 👀

Forced Resignation
Klarna’s CEO Says AI Can Replace The Work of 700 Humans 🤖

With an AI assistant that allegedly replaces the work of 700 employees, Siemiatkowski is also incentivizing the remaining staff with salary bumps tied to efficiency gains. He even created an AI version of himself to present earnings updates, though the results were more 'uncanny valley' than 'tech revolution.' 

Klarna’s earnings have risen, and many companies are likely to follow in it’s footsteps.
