Fast Models Need Slow Developers — Sarah Chieng, Cerebras

As AI coding models like Codex Spark reach 1,200 tokens per second—20x faster than current standards—developers must abandon bad habits formed during the era of slow inference. This talk outlines a practical playbook for "slow development": orchestrating fast models for execution while using slower, smarter models for planning, and treating AI as a real-time pair programmer requiring constant verification and strict context management.

Chip design from the bottom up – Reiner Pope

Reiner Pope explains how AI chips work from fundamental logic gates up, revealing that the physical cost of moving data between memory and compute units (via multiplexers) often exceeds the cost of the actual mathematical operations, and that circuit area scales quadratically with precision, making low-precision arithmetic exponentially more efficient than commonly assumed.

The Ezra Klein Show: Michael Pollan’s Journey to the Borderlands of Consciousness

Michael Pollan joins Ezra Klein to explore the fundamental paradox of consciousness—that it is our most immediate experience yet remains deeply mysterious—drawing on beeper experiments tracking mundane thoughts, William James's theories of the stream of consciousness, and research suggesting plants may possess forms of sentience.
