You’ve probably heard about how AI/LLMs can solve Math Olympiad problems ( deepmind.google/discover/blo... ).

So naturally, some people put it to the test β€” hours after the 2025 US Math Olympiad problems were released.

The result: They all sucked!

Cancer research is going to disappear in the US because apparently no one in US leadership ever took a biology class. β€œDOGE found $8 million grant to make mice transgender. This is real.”

The Dems have an opportunity here:

If Trump insists on raising the debt ceiling limit, they should make it *permanent*, i.e., abolish the debt limit. If he doesn't want to do that now, then he can sweat it out in the Spring.

The GPT Era Is Already Ending Something has shifted at OpenAI.

To hear OpenAI tell it, its newest AI models will augur a new era of the AI revolution. Are they magic or a sleight of hand, and does it matter? I've spent months reporting on these "reasoning" bots and the startup's entire approach to erecting superintelligence:
