Recursion at inference time—rather than simply scaling model size—may be the next breakthrough in AI reasoning. Recent research on Hierarchical Reasoning Models (HRM) and Tiny Recursive Models (TRM) demonstrates that recursive architectures using shared weights can solve complex reasoning benchmarks like Arc Prize with minimal parameters, outperforming massive traditional LLMs.

AI Engineer

This workshop demonstrates how to bridge the gap between AI prototypes and production systems using Brain Trust's observability platform, featuring Trainline's experience deploying multi-agent AI applications serving 27 million users.

Excess Returns

Despite facing oil shocks, war, and a frozen private credit market, equities remain resilient as investors 'buy the dip' and look through short-term disruptions toward AI-driven growth, though systemic risks may already be exploding beyond our current sightlines.

The Money Guy Show

While today's workers earn over $15,000 more in inflation-adjusted income than baby boomers did in 1980, housing and vehicle costs have risen dramatically faster than the 3% historical inflation rate, creating a uniquely challenging environment for wealth building despite lower mortgage rates.

The Verge

Elon Musk's testimony in his lawsuit against OpenAI backfired dramatically as he struggled under cross-examination, admitting that his AI company xAI distilled OpenAI's models and conceding he failed to read key contractual documents before contributing $44 million.

New York Times Podcasts

New York Times book critics Gilbert Cruz, Tina Jordan, and Dwight Garner reflect on two decades of literary evolution, tracing how memoir scandals, dystopian YA blockbusters, Scandinavian crime waves, and the autofiction revolution reshaped reading habits and publishing trends.

Rachel Fernandez, Stanford's youngest instructor at 19, discusses why C++ remains vital to modern infrastructure despite security challenges, the risks of AI-generated code built on potentially vulnerable foundations, and her journey from a resource-starved high school to organizing one of the world's largest hackathons with million-dollar budgets.

Stripe

AI leaders Nat Friedman and Daniel Gross join Stripe's Collison brothers to discuss how we're in the 'slow' beginning of the singularity, where human bottlenecks still constrain model improvement but will soon give way to AI self-improvement, creating profound economic uncertainty and a new golden age of personal AI agents that fundamentally alter human-technology relationships.

Trillions in private credit debt face imminent markdowns as the 2021-2022 shadow banking bubble collapses, revealing widespread accounting gimmicks used to hide delinquent corporate loans while major funds face historic investor redemption requests.

How I Built This (NPR)

NPR security correspondents analyze the third assassination attempt on President Trump at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, examining suspect Cole Allen's background and motives while debating whether the Secret Service response constituted a security success or systemic failure.

Stanford Online

Anjney Midha frames the current AI landscape as 'the great transition,' where industrial-scale model training meets a complete restructuring of the eight-layer infrastructure stack, while arguing that relationships and obsessions remain the ultimate asymmetric advantages for founders against entrenched incumbents.

Stanford Online

This lecture introduces scaling laws as predictive power-law relationships that enable practitioners to optimize language model training on small budgets and confidently extrapolate performance to million-dollar large-scale runs, while tracing these empirical patterns back to classical machine learning theory and sample complexity research from the 1990s.
