The use of AI by patients to resolve life-impacting gaps and errors in the healthcare system is a peek both at what AI makes possible, and the upcoming collision with incumbent health industry interests.

"Bugsnag" was a 9/10 name for a saas product. "Insight Hub" is a 1/10.
Yesterday the WSJ published a supposed "Exclusive", "U.S. Plans to Use Tariff Negotiations to Isolate China".
But if you follow Matthew Pines on X, you've known the geoeconomic strategy in play since before last November
There's still *very high signal-noise ratio* in certain X accts
Every response should be some form of “As a (social) scientist I am ethically bound to report my findings truthfully”.
But given we’re still very deep in the replication crisis I would predict few ethical responses.
Another great example of a team working on the Hypermodal Interface: "General Agents".
Their demo videos are extremely slick. Unfortunately their app, "Ace", isn't openly available now.
Do check our their videos: generalagents.com
And in the meantime, try the other apps mentioned in the article:
I've recently become obsessed with a new computing interface I see coalescing:
I call it the _Hypermodal Interface_.
The key elements:
- Quick triggering hotkeys
- voice and text input
- reasoning-capable AI models, and
- the new LLM Tool ecosystem (MCP Tools)
I've devoted today's issue to it:
Just 2 days later.
You’re too polite Ian, we all know why.
As shocking as it is there’s no time to waste with thoughts of whether this is real.
It is real: It’s an attempt to give Russia the opportunity to grab more Ukrainian territory before attempting to force a deal.
Absolute clarity, powerfully delivered. France is undeniably taking the lead role in organizing a defense of western democracy.
How many countries have put a decision on nuclear weapons development at the top of their priorities in the last month?
I’d bet it’s not zero.
Don’t worry American farmers, I’m sure this policy will be a Great Leap Forward for all of you!
Wouldn't it be great if smartphones became unassailable sources of truth?
It can be done, and now is the time.

Why do we *know* more AI advances are baked-in for the near future?
There are persistent, reliable, predictable processes making it happen.

A nice surprise for the new year - my recent appearance on the London Futurists podcast was posted today.
Hosts David Wood, Calum Chace, and I had a chat on post-AI job loss, consequences for human economic value, and how society should prepare, during the transition and after.

"AI agents are the new apps. But with Apple Intelligence, developers are relegated to being data donors and task runners - locked out of the agent layer entirely."

Thanks Austin! 🙏
Lots of anti-AI sentiment to be found on bluesky. Not a complete surprise, but the number of blocklists I’ve seen targeted at AI folks does give me pause.
Do these people really feel so comfortable about blocking out info on the biggest change to their reality?
Hey Andrew, I write about AI and society, economics, global security, work at roadtoartificia.com
Maybe so 😅
On-demand UIs are just one example of going from static, multi-week project-driven artifact creation by teams to dynamic, continuously generated artifacts built with silly amounts of cheap intelligence.
This opens up possibilities like on-demand UI/UX generation that conforms to a user's needs in the moment, through the application of vast volumes of cheap intelligence.
In the post-AI era of zero-marginal cost intelligence, we need to imagine use cases enabled by cheap, orders-of-magnitude greater knowledge work.
We talk a lot about the *degree* of intelligence AGI and ASI will provide us, but not enough about the *volume*, or the *speed of delivery* of cheap intelligence.
