Every sci-fi reality will arrive in the next 10 years. Less than a week ago I cold DM'ed frontier physicist Dr. @alexwg for a UF AI club Q&A. He replied in minutes, said "email me," and we were live 3 days later. That speed says everything—about the urgency of this moment and who Alex is. Our full 2-hour conversation on agency, physics, and the next decade: youtu.be/wR9-wtAN2Bw

What’s your biggest LARP? I’ll go first. Getting my hands on Claude code, vibe-coding one app, and putting “Full-stack dev” in my LinkedIn bio as a business major 🤣

Building on the momentum from my episode with AWG, I got to host Dr. Mike Israetel (@misraetel), co-founder of RP Strength, for UF AI Club. We got into what students should learn as AI keeps improving, whether AI can replace personal trainers, why estimating calories from a meal photo is harder than it sounds, and what motivates us if work becomes optional. Mike brought the humor, and our students brought their curiosity. I had such a good time hosting this one. Thanks again for joining us, Mike! Full student Q&A is live on my channel: youtu.be/7guZ5zalCgw

AI is already superhuman at many things. We are in the singularity.

We recently obtained the highest-resolution 3D images of the human brain ever taken from outside the skull. This is the first look. Introducing Aleph, a research lab building brain interfaces for the telepathic future. (1/n)

If you don't wake up excited and go to bed tired, drop everything and think of what your future will look like if you keep repeating the same day for the rest of your life. Sit with that discomfort until a new direction appears.

I cannot comprehend this scale
It is humbling to consider that if we harness just 1 millionth of the Sun’s power for AI, that will be much more than a million times the intelligence of all of humanity
