The ARC-AGI-3 challenge launches today as the first interactive reasoning benchmark which stumps current frontier LLMs. Karl Friston, one of the most cited neuroscientists alive and Chief Scientist at VERSES AI, argues that his active inference framework can compete where LLMs fail because it does something they structurally cannot: encode uncertainty and be curious.

Monday Morning Moan - Big Govt props up Big Tech. Why Trump 2.0's Federal landgrab is a regulatory win for the AI Bros, but a loss for society as a whole

Now we know - and it's pretty much what we feared. Control of AI regulation is to sit with Washington, but there will be no Federal regulatory body created to manage this. Instead, OpenAI, Google, Palantir, et al will be left to 'mark their own homework'!
