AI - Using it in my job

Create an interactive simulation that explains the concepts behind Kuhn's theory of scientific revolutions in an engaging way to build a working game that explains core concepts from the historian of science, someone pointed out (quite rightly) that the simulation did not take into account Kuhn’s view that scientific revolutions are not always valu...

To turn on artifacts, you simply have to click the initial in the bottom left, select feature preview, then turn on artifacts. Intuitive! For Code Interpreter, you have to remember to ask the AI to “use code” or sometimes it forgets

First, operationalisation takes a long time, often revealing hidden potential in existing technologies. As Jack Clark notes, “if we stopped all AI progress today, there’s a huge capability overhang”. Even without further model development, building the right scaffolding can unlock surprising capabilities. This scaffolding isn’t just software; it in... See more

The explosion of generative AI made us pause and consider what was possible now that wasn’t a year ago. We tried many ideas which didn’t really click, eventually discovering the power of turning every feed and job posting into a springboard to:

• Get information faster , e.g. takeaways from a post or learn about the latest from a company.


• Connect the

Other examples include BNP Paribas, which this month announced it was in a partnership with model builder Mistral AI. TD Bank also said this month it was working with Cohere. Mousavizadeh said that the majority of banks are working with several model-makers on the market, including Meta Platforms’ Llama, Anthropic’s Claude, Google’s Gemini and Open... See more

As one example, I showed that Claude can get remarkably far as an entirely automated entrepreneur with the prompt: think step-by-step. generate 20 ideas for an app aimed at HR professionals. then evaluate and pick the best one that would make a good visual app. build a playable prototype of that. interview me as a potential customer about the proto...

I can upload to Claude an income statement for a small business and prompt “here's an excel of my startup's finances, make it a dashboard.” A few seconds later I get this:

But, because it is fast and responsive, I can go further, applying techniques I teach in my entrepreneurship classes that help founders test their financial assumptions. “Add sens... See more

I wrote a Python script a few weeks ago to get an AI agent to play a coach and another AI agent to play a coachee. The way they bounced off one another was a great insight on what refinements would enable AI to facilitate more resonant, higher fidelity coaching as opposed to a conversation driven by relevance and people's preferences.

Scenarios expand your thinking

You will think more broadly if you develop a range of possible outcomes, each backed by the sequence of events that would lead to them. The exercise is particularly valuable because of a human quirk that leads us to expect that the future will resemble the past and that change will occur only gradually. By demonstrati... See more
