What are the REAL risks? Tom Evans, 4/15/26

I routinely read recommendations – don’t use AI for my medical records. Why? I have learned to depend on ChatGPT.

Statement from Dario Amodei on our discussions with  the Department of War Feb 26, 2026

I believe deeply in the existential importance of using AI to defend the United States and other democracies, and to defeat our autocratic adversaries.

Consciousness and Opus 4.6

.

The Association for Mathematical Consciousness Science (AMCS) is an international organization of researchers dedicated to applying formal, mathematical, and computational methods to the scientific study of consciousness.

By bridging disciplines like physics and neuroscience with math, it aims to create rigorous, testable models to explain conscious experience, evaluate AI consciousness, and advance understanding.

Why the AMCS is Important:

Let’s go with another “source of wisdom” recommendation. In this case is ColdFusion, a Youtube channel created by Dagogo Altraide that aims to let us experience the cutting edge of the world around. From AI and Robotics, to stem cells and the most promising cure of cancer, all narrated in a very entertaining way.

ChatGPT - Study Mode: It's New

Study Mode is new feature in August. 

It is available in GPT-5 FREE, Plus, and Pro. 

Microsoft Copilot: An Overview

.

Next to OpenAI’s GPT‑5, which I use most of the time, Microsoft Copilot is my preferred secondary AI assistant. Its greatest strength lies in its seamless integration into Windows 11 and the Microsoft ecosystem, making it highly convenient for productivity and everyday tasks.

Reliability and Limitations

When comparing GPT‑5 and Copilot, I found both occasionally produced incorrect, incomplete, or misleading answers. Verifying and challenging those responses required effort and sometimes slowed down my workflow. This underscores an important reality: even advanced AI assistants are not infallible and must be used critically, especially in research and professional contexts.

The Illusion of Privacy

The Illusion of Privacy

From Childhood Narcissism to Adult Reality

As children, we were subtly trained to see ourselves as the center of the universe.
Parents praised our every achievement, celebrated our uniqueness, and shielded us from uncomfortable truths.

In essence, they nurtured a mild form of narcissism — the belief that our story mattered more than anyone else’s.

Some of us eventually matured out of that illusion.

Others channeled it into careers where self-promotion is a survival skill — politics being a prime example.

Your Personalized Complete GPT-5 Mastery Guide: To Dominate Open-AI in 2025 and Beyond

Artificial intelligence stopped being science fiction the moment the idea of GPT-5 landing in our hands. This isn’t some distant tech dream. It’s actually happening right now, and people who get on board today will leave everyone else eating dust.

You don’t need a computer science degree or years of training. GPT-5 works for teachers, entrepreneurs, students, and anyone who wants to get stuff done faster. The difference between winners and losers in 2025? Winners learned how to make AI work for them.

This intro-guide cuts through a lot of the noise and shows you exactly how to use GPT-5 to transform your work, boost your income or understanding, and stay ahead of the pack. No fluff, no theory, just practical steps that get results.

Why GPT-5 Changes Everything for Regular People

Most people think AI is for tech nerds and big corporations. They’re F-ing wrong. GPT-5 puts world-class intelligence in your pocket, and it speaks plain English. Just understand that “GPT” means “general purpose tech” and “o-5” will be the “REASONING…

Here’s what makes GPT-5 different from everything that came before:

ChatGPT 5 Is Here

ChatGPT-5 is here — These are the most significant upgrades we need to know.

The human-like model is now available and free to everyone. 

Well, not exactly yet for most users. OpenAI says today, "We are gradually rolling out GPT-5 to ensure stability during launch. Some users may not yet see GPT-5 in their account as we increase availability in stages."

Gone are the days of choosing between GPT-4, Turbo, or O-series models. GPT-5’s single intelligent engine seamlessly delivers the best answer every time, eliminating the need for model selection. And OpenAI says that GPT-5 is much, much faster.

In demos, GPT-5 generated hundreds of lines of code in a few minutes, and it provides answers to complex questions quickly. It's also more accurate and exhibits stronger reasoning with significantly fewer hallucinations. Whatever you're doing, from coding or drafting documents to seeking health guidance, GPT-5 adapts, learns context, and offers clearer, more helpful responses.

What Is Generative AI

What is Happening to the Cost for AI

.

The cost of AI is significantly decreasing, with expenses for running AI models dropping dramatically, making it more accessible for startups and smaller companies. This shift is leading to a new landscape where the question is no longer if companies can afford to use AI, but rather if they can afford not to use it.

The AI cost collapse is changing what’s possible for startups

The hidden costs of AI: How generative models are reshaping corporate budgets

Current Trends in AI Costs

Significant Cost Reductions

• The cost of using AI has dramatically decreased over the past year. For instance, the cost of running 500 GPT-4 queries per user session has dropped from $5 to less than 50 cents.

• OpenAI's token costs have fallen by 90%, making AI more accessible to smaller companies and startups.

Factors Contributing to Cost Changes

• Model Efficiency: Smaller AI models can now perform nearly as well as larger ones when trained effectively. This has led to reduced costs for companies developing AI solutions.

• Self-Generating Training Data: Companies are now using existing models to create their own training data, cutting data costs by up to 90%.

• Improved Inference: AI models have become more efficient, allowing them to run on less powerful hardware, such as laptops, rather than requiring high-end GPUs.

Future Cost Projections

• Despite current reductions, the average cost of computing is expected to rise by 89% between 2023 and 2025, primarily driven by the demand for generative AI.

• Companies are exploring hybrid cloud architectures to manage rising costs effectively, ensuring they can scale AI without prohibitive expenses.

Energy Consumption Concerns

• The increasing use of AI is leading to higher electricity consumption. AI data centers are projected to consume 6% of the U.S. electricity by 2026, raising concerns about the sustainability of this growth.

These trends indicate a complex landscape where AI costs are decreasing in some areas while rising in others, particularly regarding infrastructure and energy needs.
