“Sumawka Caller”

The FBI counted the money. Almost nine hundred million dollars lost last year to AI-enabled fraud. Investment scams running deepfake videos of celebrities. Voice cloning technology that makes a stranger sound exactly like your grandchild calling in a panic. Fake CFOs authorizing wire transfers in video calls that never happened. The numbers are real and…

Something happened this week that does not happen often in the technology industry. A major AI company told the truth. Not the whole truth. Not voluntarily. But enough of it that the people paying attention should stop and read it twice. Anthropic released a new model this week called Claude Opus 4.7. By any measure…

There is something missing from every conversation happening right now about artificial intelligence. Not the technical conversations. Not the boardroom conversations. Not the government hearings where senators ask questions about things they learned about last Tuesday. All of those are happening. All of them are missing the same thing. They are talking about what AI…

I feel for you. Not in the way people say it when they don’t mean it. In the way a person means it after they have lived long enough to see what gets lost when nobody slows down long enough to look. A swipe of a finger. A click of a button. That is the…

There’s a piece going around right now from Elizabeth Lopatto at The Verge. She’s asking a fair question. How did the smartest people in the room build so many things nobody actually wanted? NFTs. The metaverse. VR headsets that sit in a drawer. And now AI — pitched as the thing that changes everything, used…

There is a sentence structure that gives AI away every time. It is not a word. It is not punctuation. It is a pattern. The moment you see it you cannot unsee it. A writer at Inc. magazine put a name to it recently after an editor noticed it buried in nearly every paragraph of…

There is a moment in every new technology cycle that nobody talks about because it does not make for a good headline. It is not the launch. It is not the breakthrough. It is the period just after the excitement settles and before the consequences show up. Historians call it different things. I call it…

They announced this week that GPT-5.4 scored 94% on the ARC-AGI-1 reasoning benchmark. Higher than human experts. The machine now outthinks the people who built it on a standardized test of logic and pattern recognition. That is the number they want you to carry out of the room with you. That is the number designed…

Harvard and OpenAI just published something that should stop every corporate AI initiative in its tracks. After three years of generative AI being widely available, nearly 80 percent of ChatGPT usage falls into three categories. Guidance. Information seeking. Writing. A smarter Google search with better sentence structure. That is where the revolution landed. One company…

Most people think of the trade war as a fight about washing machines and soybeans. It is not. Not anymore. What is being fought over right now, in the language of tariffs and proclamations and export controls, is who controls the infrastructure that runs artificial intelligence. And that fight has consequences for every person alive…
