The author argued that it would be unwise to bet against an intelligence that never dies, learns orders of magnitude faster than humans and may have no limit to how large it can grow.

The author argued that people would have little to lose by assuming AI could control them if it could not, but could lose everything if they dismissed the possibility and AI could. They urged readers to bet without hesitation that AI was capable of controlling them.
The author wrote that people formed their identities in relation to an “other,” which had once been animals and was now artificial, silicon intelligence. They said this offered an opportunity to identify as biological intelligence and unite with the natural world.
The author suggested that a future theory of evolution might recognize humans as one of many possible forms of intelligence, and argued that legal, social and value systems should be adjusted accordingly.
What is college if knowledge, teaching, and advising are available from machines? One model has answers to many challenges that AI is posing today: residential education where students learn from each other to be bold, original, and uniquely human while living, eating and https://t.co/g8XxISz5ZF #AI #Education #Learning #Nospecificcountrycodesidentified.
Two to three more Millenium problem are rumored to be solved. It's time to switch to questions with no provable answers! Academia will flourish when we go back to our roots. Meet George of Trebizond.

Exciting update: "Breaking the Wall of Hidden Whale Vowels" has been selected as one of ten finalists for the 2026 Falling Walls Science Breakthrough of the Year in Social Sciences & Humanities. The recognition is for our work uncovering vowel-like structure in sperm-whale https://t.co/LzUTKvQ2XN #FallingWalls2026 #ScienceBreakthrough #WhaleResearch #Therearenospecificcountriesmentionedinthetweet.Therefore #theresponseis:

Linguistics is a powerful science that has the capacity to change the course of history (like it did when Darwin borrowed from linguistics to argue for his evolutionary theory). https://t.co/sKtjBGro0d #Linguistics #Science #Evolution #Nospecificcountriesarementionedinthetweet.

Science is reporting on our work today. We discuss advances in AI creativity, its limits, metalinguistics, consciousness, and the importance of linguistic research. Also, try out ConlangCrafter, an agentic pipeline for creating constructed languages. https://t.co/Zh7S10dtVj #AI #Linguistics #Conlang #Nospecificcountriesarementionedinthetweet.
Wittgenstein famously said that the limits of our language are the limits of our world. This research is using AI to generate endless made-up languages to challenge the limits of possible languages and worlds. For example, the models have created a mix between Japanese and https://t.co/2RTqVW5hU4 #AI #Linguistics #Wittgenstein #JP

We are at a crossroads when humanity will have to form a new kind of identity. We form our identities in relation to others. We’re Bowles and not fraternities or dorms. We’re Bears, we’re Cal and not that school across the Bay. For the longest, we were humans and not animals.

Not long ago, we witnessed the birth of a sperm whale. A newborn whale cannot survive on its own. It is born underwater and it must reach the air to take its first breath—and it cannot get there alone. As this baby whale was born in the water, ten other whales, from two different https://t.co/f5RIj44Gl7 #SpermWhale #NewbornWhale #MarineLife #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.
At the time when artificial intelligence surpasses us on many cognitive tasks, learning through companionship and dialogues between humans is more important than ever.

In this moment, when humanity is realizing that its intelligence might not be the most exclusive and unique, it is worth forming our alliances with other biological beings. Perhaps it’s time to start learning not only from other humans, but from other species as well.
