Google Research just released a fascinating new paradigm called “Nested Learning” to solve one of the most persistent headaches in AI: “catastrophic forgetting.” In traditional machine learning, models are often static. When you teach them a new task, they tend…
When cars and airplanes arrived, did we spend less time traveling? The opposite happened. Initially, yes, cars made existing trips faster. But then we realized what else became possible. Weekend getaways. Cross-country moves. Global business. We didn’t reduce travel. We…
A recent MIT report highlighted a startling statistic. 95% of investments in Generative AI have produced zero returns. This number is alarming, but for those of us in drug discovery and pharmacovigilance, it shouldn’t be surprising. The problem isn’t the…
I just finished watching a fascinating interview with Ilya Sutskever, and it raises a critical question for all of us in R&D and Pharmacovigilance. For years, the promise of massive AI models felt tied only to scaling: more compute, more…
Many people worry that in the age of AI, important human capabilities like critical thinking will decline. Some studies even suggest that when people rely on tools like ChatGPT, they think less deeply. I believe there is no need to…
The White House just released the Genesis Mission, outlining a coordinated national effort to advance science, technology, and AI. It aims to identify major challenges across key domains and mobilize federal, academic, and private-sector capabilities to address them. A core…
Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma is one of the most difficult cancers to treat. Its biology is driven by inflammation, fibrosis, and a highly suppressive tumor environment. This makes it an important target for new ideas. Using our AI-powered drug repurposing platform…
That question came up in The Minds of Modern AI, a roundtable with Geoffrey Hinton, Yoshua Bengio, Yann LeCun, Fei-Fei Li, Bill Dally, and Jensen Huang — six pioneers who built the foundations of modern AI. Their responses were thoughtful,…
I recently watched The Minds of Modern AI, a roundtable featuring Geoffrey Hinton, Yoshua Bengio, Yann LeCun, Fei-Fei Li, Bill Dally, and Jensen Huang — the laureates of the 2025 Queen Elizabeth Prize for Engineering. Each shared a deeply personal…
When NVIDIA’s Jensen Huang said China is winning the AI race, he wasn’t entirely wrong. He just said it too early. The U.S. government’s decision to ban advanced NVIDIA chips from being sold to China was meant to slow China’s…
