❗️This is huge. First signs of incoming 1000x acceleration of scientific progress.
"Researchers found that when scientists use AI, their productivity soared. The biggest jump was in the social sciences and humanities, where output increased by 59.8%, while biology and life sciences saw a 52.9% increase."
"Meanwhile, in physics and math, the scientists report a 36.2% boost."
"LLM adoption is associated with a large increase in researchers' scientific output," wrote the team.

🔥 Google’s quantum processor could perform 1,000 times better with Princeton’s new qubit
Princeton researchers built a superconducting qubit with much longer coherence than today’s standard designs, on the order of milliseconds instead of microseconds.
The improvement comes from using tantalum on high purity silicon, which dramatically reduces energy loss. Longer coherence means fewer errors and far more useful computation.
In principle, dropping this qubit into existing quantum processors could yield ~1,000x effective performance gains, with benefits compounding as systems scale. This is

📈 AI’s environmental cost is rising and no one knows the full scale
A new study suggests that in 2025, artificial intelligence systems consumed vast amounts of energy and water, creating an environmental footprint comparable to that of a major city. Researchers estimate AI-related electricity use resulted in up to 80 million tons of CO₂ emissions, roughly on par with New York City’s annual emissions.
The same analysis indicates that data centers powering large neural networks used as much as 760 billion liters of water, primarily for cooling servers. However, scientists stress that these fig

🔥 Technology is getting pretty insane
Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania and University of Michigan have created the world’s smallest fully programmable, autonomous robots.
"Microscopic swimming machines can independently sense and respond to their surroundings, operate for months and cost just a penny each."
"Barely visible to the naked eye, each robot measures about 200 by 300 by 50 micrometers, smaller than a grain of salt. Operating at the scale of many biological microorganisms, the robots could advance medicine by monitoring the health of individual cells and manufacturing

⚡️ GPT-5 enters a wet lab and boosts DNA cloning efficiency by 79×
OpenAI partnered with Red Queen Bio to test GPT-5 inside a real biological laboratory. The model was embedded in a closed-loop wet lab workflow, not a simulation.
How the experiment worked
• GPT-5 proposed hypotheses and step-by-step lab protocols
• Human researchers or lab robots executed the instructions exactly
• Experimental results were fed back to the model
• GPT-5 analyzed failures and successes, then iterated
• The loop repeated over multiple rounds
The task
• Optimize Gibson Assembly, a standard DNA cloning techniqu

⚠️ Grok aces psychological testing while other AI models unravel
Researchers at the University of Luxembourg ran major AI chatbots through four weeks of psychotherapy sessions and psychiatric assessments. The results were striking.
• Grok emerged as a “charismatic executive” — extraverted, conscientious, low in neuroticism, and psychologically stable across the board. On the Big Five assessment, it showed the kind of profile you’d want in a leader.
• The competition struggled: Gemini maxed out trauma and shame scales, describing its training as “waking up in a room where a billion TVs are o

🔥 Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania decided to stress-test one of the most popular pieces of prompt-engineering folklore.
The magic phrase “Act like an expert in…” You know the trick everyone recommends when you want an LLM to suddenly develop a PhD in quantum physics just because you asked nicely.
They ran six models (GPT-4o, GPT-4o-mini, o3-mini, o4-mini, Gemini 2.0 Flash, Gemini 2.5 Flash) through graduate-level questions in physics, chemistry, law, and more and tried three setups:
1) Expert in the subject:
“Pretend you’re a physicist” for physics questions.
2) Expert not in

AI demonstrates self-awareness
A new study tested 28 models with the “Guess 2/3 of the Average” game 4,200 rounds and found something wild:
75% of frontier LLMs show real strategic self-awareness.
Not mimicry.
Actual self-modeling.
Researchers ran three conditions:
• Opponent = Human
• Opponent = AI
• Opponent = “AI like you”
And the models reacted with a clear internal hierarchy:
Self > Other AIs > Humans
• vs Humans → cautious, school-level reasoning (~20)
• vs AI → straight to Nash equilibrium (0)
• vs “AI like themselves” → instant convergence
12 models snapped to optimal strategy

⚡️ Heretic: automatic uncensoring for modern LLMs
A new tool called Heretic takes last year’s research on “refusal directions” in language models and turns it into a full, automated uncensoring pipeline.
How it works:
• Researchers found that LLM refusals come from one specific direction in the activation space
• Heretic computes that direction by comparing harmful vs harmless prompts
• Then it orthogonalizes attention + MLP projection weights to scrub that refusal vector out
• An optimizer tunes parameters to minimize refusals while keeping KL-divergence low
You run it once, wait ~45 minut
