1. A piece on Magill and free speech, written before the recent brouhaha.

2. “Today, Future House is announcing WikiCrow, our first automated system for synthesizing scientific knowledge.”

3. Erik Hoel on the marginal value of intelligence, and AI. And with a clever restatement: “call it the supply paradox of AI: the easier it is to train an AI to do something, the less economically valuable that thing is”

4. And was some version of democratized AGI technology released yesterday?

5. Modeling “Assorted links.”

6. Apply for an ACX grant from Scott Alexander.

7. The extremely large telescope.

8. Google’s NotebookLM aims to be the ultimate writing assistant.
