Physicists really do believe that their discipline is the basis for all other sciences because, well, it is. Recently, physicists have been applying physics to biology, using physics principles to predict how life itself evolves. Let’s take a look.

AGI: will it kill us or save us?

Artificial general intelligence (AGI) could be humanity’s greatest invention… or our biggest risk.

In this episode of TechFirst, I talk with Dr. Ben Goertzel, CEO and founder of SingularityNET, about the future of AGI, the possibility of superintelligence, and what happens when machines think beyond human programming.

We cover:
• Is AGI inevitable? How soon will it arrive?
• Will AGI kill us … or save us?
• Why decentralization and blockchain could make AGI safer.
• How large language models (LLMs) fit into the path toward AGI
• The risks of an AGI arms race between the U.S. and China.
• Why Ben Goertzel created Meta, a new AGI programming language.

📌 Topics include AI safety, decentralized AI, blockchain for AI, LLMs, reasoning engines, superintelligence timelines, and the role of governments and corporations in shaping the future of AI.

⏱️ Chapters.

ML Systems Textbook

Machine Learning Systems provides a systematic framework for understanding and engineering machine learning (ML) systems. This textbook bridges the gap between theoretical foundations and practical engineering, emphasizing the systems perspective required to build effective AI solutions. Unlike resources that focus primarily on algorithms and model architectures, this book highlights the broader context in which ML systems operate, including data engineering, model optimization, hardware-aware training, and inference acceleration. Readers will develop the ability to reason about ML system architectures and apply enduring engineering principles for building flexible, efficient, and robust machine learning systems.

Hyundai joins US’ 11 gigawatt nuclear reactor project in Texas

Hyundai Engineering & Construction (Hyundai E&C) has taken a major step in expanding its global nuclear energy footprint.

On October 26, the company announced that it signed a basic design contract with Fermi America, a U.S.-based energy development firm, for the construction of four large nuclear reactors in Texas. The project will form part of what is expected to be the world’s largest integrated energy and artificial intelligence (AI) campus.

“I Mapped the Invisible”: American High School Senior Baffles Scientists by Uncovering 1.5 Million Celestial Objects Hidden in Deep Space

A teenage student digging through old NASA data has uncovered a hidden trove of over a million cosmic objects using AI—reshaping what scientists thought they knew about the night sky.
