If Jensen steps down, Kurian and Garman are def top two Nvidia CEO candidates (especially because Sundar and Jassy aren’t leaving their jobs). Both manage $100B+ capex spend. Know the entire AI ecosystem. And honeypot risk is low based on fact they both pay for Linkedin Premium.

Two kinds of students crack IITs 1. So effortlessly brilliant, they put Ramanujan to shame. 2. So hard-working, they put donkeys to shame. I used to be a fanboy of type 1 when I was preparing. Now, after 10 years of graduating from IIT, I see the second type a lot more successful

It really is pointless and unnecessary to allow external reviewers to use AI as they want. There are obvious better alternatives. By now, everyone should already be using AI to check their work before submitting. So what's the point of reviewers meat proxying to send more AI-generated feedback? Seemingly none. What happens if we ban AI use in peer review? The main risk is to the imagined role of peer review as a basic soundness filter. But this is much better addressed by the venue having a centralized approach that uses validated AI tools to check that a paper is what it says it is than by individual reviewers feeding papers to LLMs using basic prompts. Such checks might include things like whether the results can be reproduced from the data/code, whether claims can be traced back to some provided evidence, whether there are TODOs left by an LLM to replace table results with non-fake data, etc. Some of these can be used to determine if a paper should be desk rejected. Anything that is more controversial can be surfaced for reviewers. This will shift what reviewers pay attention to, but this can be addressed by: 1) making clear to reviewers that their role is to identify what these checks miss and to weigh them, 2) being intelligent about how you select the set of LLM checks that are surfaced. See e.g., our work on learning LLM-implemented checklist that avoid adding more bias than they reduce variance. arxiv.org/pdf/2610.28666 What happened with ICLR being permissive with reviewers using AI freely is seeming pretty inexcusable.

Ashwini ji is serious💀

Kannadigas check this! There is no answer with them for Nikhil Kamat question! This is the question we r asking daily, what’s the incentive with Indian union in life? If we do better in life you snatch and feed subhumans in north India. We are leading life with ZERO benefits! 😡

Overnight T-18s if done right on the 800-1600 km segment would be a runaway success. There’d be demand for 2-3 such trains(spaced an hour apart) between cities within few years.

On iPhone, voice mode now works with Apple CarPlay. Ask Claude something on the drive and keep your hands on the wheel.

I used to refuse to do Leetcode interviews out of principle. I thought they were stupid, and I'd rather build. In hindsight I left a lot of money on the table by being so principled, but I never struggled to find work. I even took a year and a half off once to travel the world, and when I decided to get back to work it only took me 3 weeks to secure a remote job that allowed me to stay abroad in Asia (this was before COVID when remote was still uncommon) Then in '24 it was clear to me that the market was no longer what it used to be, and was only going to get worse (don't forget at the time everyone was claiming this is all temporary). I swallowed my pride, moved to SF, and grinded my Leetcode like a good little monkey. 500 questions later I secured an offer at Meta. I felt like I'd slid into the garage just before the door shut. Now in '26 coding has been automated, but most companies still do coding interviews. Never before have coding interviews been more removed from reality, and I've personally lost all motivation to prep for them. Many if not most companies will probably inevitably phase them out within the next year or two, but then the question becomes - what will they replace them with? If companies are replacing them with AI-enabled HackerRank/CodeSignal interviews, I wouldn't consider that an improvement based on those interviews I've seen. IMO all interviewing is flawed. At the end of the day, most people just want smart, hardworking people that are fun to work with and aligned with the mission. Of course there needs to be alignment in skillset, but I think AI is the great democratizer that makes that less relevant than ever. If I were running my own company, I'd just find those people and give them work trials. All this monkey hoop jumping does nobody any favors, and is frankly demeaning. It's always been that way and we've all known it, but now it's finally gotten so absurd that the tide is finally shifting.

New blog post from our group! Do you create dashboards / HTML pages with lots of AI-generate texts, and get frustrated (like us) about how they're hard to read? Check out our tips here (and, send them to your coding agents)!!
