🧠 Neurodiversity in AI: Building Tech for Everyone
Frankie Woodhead (CPTO, Thrive) highlights the critical role of neurodiverse talent in AI development:
Why it matters? Neurodivergent thinkers spot biases, improve UX, and drive more ethical, inclusive AI.
Thrive’s approach: Actively recruits neurodiverse engineers, leading to more intuitive AI learning tools.
Key takeaway: Without diverse perspectives, AI risks reinforcing inequalities instead of solving them.
🤔 Google’s Gemini 2.5: AI That Pauses to "Think"
Google just launched Gemini 2.5 Pro, its most advanced reasoning model yet:
How it works: Uses extra compute time to fact-check & logically process answers.
Benchmarks: Outperforms rivals in coding, web apps, and agent tasks.
Catch? More expensive to run than standard AI models.
Bigger trend: OpenAI (o1), DeepSeek (R1), and xAI (Grok) are all racing to master reasoning.
🎨 OpenAI’s GPT-4o Gets Better at Images
OpenAI upgraded GPT-4o for more realistic image generation:
What’s new? Fixes weird hands, typos, and improves logos, slide decks, and photos.
How? Human trainers labeled errors to fine-tune the model.
Free users rejoice! Now available in ChatGPT Free, Plus, and Pro tiers.
⛏️ AI Uncovers Hidden Mineral Deposits
Startup Earth AI found copper, cobalt, and gold in Australia using AI:
Why it’s big: Like KoBold’s Zambia discovery, AI is revolutionizing mining.
Key quote: "The real frontier isn’t geography—it’s tech." —Roman Teslyuk, Earth AI CEO.
Implications: AI could reduce mining costs and secure critical minerals for tech.
