AI Week Ends in Swirls
A relay of unease, from MIT and Harvard dropouts wary of superintelligent AI, to soulless admissions essays, to a ChatGPT-5 that cannot quite deliver, culminated with the “Mother AI” moment in Las Vegas. Anthropic’s Dario Amodei closed the week in a Hobbesian frame by defending his company’s mission, while exploring Leviathan-like authority that may govern AI’s potential chaos, even as his firm helps build it. Enough for now - bring on the Lego-powered magnetic nail polish and hypnotic swirls! Armed with Lego bricks and a flair for overengineering, a husband takes “going the extra mile” for his spouse’s nails. He builds a spinning magnet contraption worthy of a science fair, coaxing magnetic nail polish into hypnotic swirls. New patterns emerge with every turn, showing that technology can be joyful as well as useful. It sure beats flowers and chocolates!
