excited to announce Campus has acquired Sizzle AI -- welcome Jerome (@an_open_mind) and the rest of the Sizzle AI team to Campus -- no one has built more at the intersection of AI and learning science
stay tuned

Great discussion about @sizzle_ai
Just sat down with Yev Marusenko, @DoctorYev, from Sizzle AI—an edtech app with millions of users that’s rethinking how our kids (and we) learn in the AI era.
📱 Sizzle isn’t just “ChatGPT for homework.” It builds entire courses from your prompts—bite-sized, mobile, interactive.
💡 Why it matters: Instead of cheating with AI, this app leans into learning science, adaptive quizzes, and self-testing, which boosts memory and real understanding.
🧪 They’re testing models fast (mostly using Gemini at scale), but the real differentiation is in the pedagogy—less gamification dopamine, more brain growth.
🎯 Parents: It’s great for summer learning, SAT prep, or homeschool reinforcement. You type “Bio 101,” it makes the course.
📉 $9.99/month, geo-priced cheaper globally.

Also love how they’re thinking about the tension between virality vs. value. As we all learn how to learn again, tools like this could be foundational.

Great article from Forbes on our official @sizzle_ai launch forbes.com/sites/rayravaglia…
I left @MetaAI last year and started a new company- @sizzle_ai - to make learning amazing for everyone. We just launched our beta app, a baby step toward that big vision, that uses AI to help learners work through any problem, step-by-step.
Download it @ szl.ai/app.html
The key to better drugs is data. @OwkinScience shows the way with the first use of federated learning to get insights with AI from multiple independent sources of patient data while leaving it secured behind hospitals’ firewalls.
Today, @NatureMedicine published Owkin research showing the first use of #federatedlearning to train #AI models using histopathology data kept within multiple hospitals. This has the potential to unlock breakthroughs in precision medicine.

My chat with @l2k for the @wandb podcast about Large Language Models, @PyTorch, my experience at @Meta and @IBMWatson, and the applications of AI that will change the world youtube.com/watch?v=zvwkVeSb…
New papers from @MetaAI on protein design. In the future, we'll be able to program life through protein machines like we program computers today. This is a significant step in that direction

Amazing breakthrough from @MetaAI - Human level diplomacy. Unlike other games where AI has matched humans in the past, this one involves dialoguing like a human

The most interesting anecdote I heard from the team: "during the tournament dozens of human players never even suspected they were playing against a bot even though we played dozens of games online."
