Image created with Ideogram 3.0. Image prompt: Lower-East-Side street-corner photograph reminiscent of a late-80s album cover: weathered red-brick tenement with exterior fire-escapes, canvas awning shading racks of vintage clothes; above the awning, a hand-painted board reads ‘Education SPORTSWEAR’; a hanging blade sign in cursive script reads ‘Education Boutique’; a chalkboard propped outside lists ‘Back-to-School Education Specials’ in messy handwriting; warm golden-hour light, subtle 35mm film grain, muted yet punchy color palette, gritty NYC vibe.
Deep Think in 2.5 Pro has landed. 🤯 It’s a new enhanced reasoning mode using our research in parallel thinking techniques – meaning it explores multiple hypotheses before responding. This enables it to handle incredibly complex math and coding problems more effectively. https://x.com/GoogleDeepMind/status/1924881598102839373
Mindblowing demo: John Link led a team of AI agents to discover a forever-chemical-free immersion coolant using Microsoft Discovery. The agents surfaced a material “”unknown to humans”” — in hours, not months — and the team synthesized it in the lab. “”It’s literally very cool.”” https://x.com/vitrupo/status/1924568771353841999
We’ve developed Gemini Diffusion: our state-of-the-art text diffusion model. Instead of predicting text directly, it learns to generate outputs by refining noise, step-by-step. This helps it excel at coding and math, where it can iterate over solutions quickly. #GoogleIO https://x.com/GoogleDeepMind/status/1924888095448825893

We’re introducing thought summaries in 2.5 Flash and Pro via the Gemini API and @GoogleCloud’s #VertexAI. These organize the model’s thoughts into a clear format with headers and key information about its actions to give more transparency. https://x.com/GoogleDeepMind/status/1924879655762632816
With GPT-4 as a tutor Nigerian students saw years of learning in weeks. Important World Bank research investigates if AI chatbots can effectively and affordably boost learning in Nigeria. 🇳🇬 Researchers conducted a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) in Nigeria. First-year https://x.com/rohanpaul_ai/status/1925614762139713851
As someone involved in academic research on AI, it is notable to me that most of the key experiments showing the impressive abilities of AI on work, medicine, psychology, and so many other fields were done on GPT-4… a model that is now so obsolete that it is gone from ChatGPT. https://x.com/emollick/status/1923134492115365905

Meta FAIR and Rothschild Foundation Hospital present a groundbreaking study mapping how language representations emerge in the brain, revealing striking parallels with LLMs. This research offers unprecedented insights into the neural development of language, showing how AI https://x.com/AIatMeta/status/1925590735254167926
The current state of research on AI and education: Growing evidence that, when used as a tutor with instructor guidance, AI seems to have quite significant positive effects. When used alone to get help with homework, it can act as shortcut that hurts learning Still early days. https://x.com/emollick/status/1925055450254385592
Very big impact: The final version of a randomized, controlled World Bank study finds using a GPT-4 tutor with teacher guidance in a six week after school progam in Nigeria had “”more than twice the effect of some of the most effective interventions in education”” at very low costs https://x.com/emollick/status/1924919060753465537

Everyone has this👇 technology that we were all was blown away by a year ago, for free. I even screenshotted the problem from the video to use in this demo to test it out..
