The cost of running a top-tier AI query dropped 280-fold in roughly 18 months — from $20 per million tokens in late 2022 to seven cents by late 2024, a price collapse with no real parallel in the history of computing

The most important AI chart for startups may not be the one showing larger models, higher benchmark scores or billion-dollar training runs. It may be the one showing something quieter: the price of asking a capable model a question has collapsed. Stanford’s 2025 AI Index Report, working with data from Epoch AI and Artificial Analysis, ... Read more

Я перестал носить руководству правильные решения. Стал носить деньги и риски

Как технически безупречный запрос на серверную завернули на финкомитете — и что я изменил, чтобы бюджет всё-таки дали. Мой профиль — строить ИТ-подразделения, которые из банальной поддержки превращаются в подразделение, с которым считаются при принятии бизнес-решений. А если точнее — приходить туда, где от ИТ остались руины, и за полгода собирать направление и команду заново, в рамках жёстких ограничений. Вот одна история из практики, которая многому меня научила. Придя в... Read more

Сколько на самом деле стоит решённая задача: считаем экономику self-hosted моделей vs API токены

Каждый раз, когда заходит разговор "что дешевле — поднять у себя открытую модель или платить за API", его почему-то ведут в ценах за токен. И почти всегда это спор не в тех единицах.Во-первых, self-hosting — это постоянные затраты, а API — переменные. Значит, ответ зависит не от цены за токен, а от того, насколько плотно вы это железо загрузите. Во-вторых, токены вообще никто не покупает как цель. Покупают решённые задачи.... Read more

"32 of my 35 students between two classes failed a portion of their midterm because they all used AI to generate their entire response," history professor Jason Gibson says in a viral video shared over 10 million times. "And apparently, they didn't proofread it." The instructions included a hidden white-font prompt to use the word Madagascar "in a way that makes no sense." So if he saw the word Madagascar,...

The art of small talk: 10 subtle phrases that make people light up when you first meet them

For years my actual job was to make strangers feel like regulars before the bread hit the table. Restaurants run on it. A guest walks in cold, slightly on guard, half-convinced they’ve overdressed, and you’ve got about ninety seconds to melt all that. You don’t do it with a script. You do it with a ...

The adults who stay genuinely happy in their 70s and 80s aren’t the ones with the most family nearby — they’re the ones with at least one relationship in which they’re still allowed to be fully honest

My grand-aunt sat at the head of every family table for as long as I knew her. She was the one you cleared the big decisions with, whose opinion could end an argument, the matriarch three generations arranged themselves around. Birthdays happened at her house. News got reported to her first. On paper she had ... Read more Read more

The nervous system has no separate setting for a raised voice at home and a predator in the grass — the amygdala treats an unpredictable parent as a genuine threat, which is why some adults never fully come off high alert

Joseph LeDoux has spent decades explaining that the amygdala is not a fear center but a threat detector — and it makes no distinction between a predator in the grass and a parent whose mood cannot be predicted. That is why some adults never fully come off high alert. Read more

A 2004 study found that conditional parental approval can secure compliance while leaving young people driven by pressure, resentment, and unstable self-worth even when the behavior looks successful

In 1994, Edward Deci and Richard Ryan showed that when a parent's warmth becomes contingent on performance, children quietly swap their own preferences for whatever keeps the peace — and the trade often holds for decades. Read more

Older adults who start giving away their most treasured things while they’re still alive aren’t being morbid or fatalistic — they’ve simply decided they’d rather watch the joy land in someone’s hands than leave it for a will to hand out once they’re gone.

There is a difference between leaving someone a treasured object and giving it to them. A will can transfer the watch, painting, recipe book or set of tools. It cannot transfer the moment in which the owner places it in another person’s hands, tells the story attached to it and sees whether the choice was ... Read more Read more

Antonio Damasio’s ‘somatic marker’ theory argued that bodily signals help guide decisions before conscious reasoning, and patients with damaged emotional circuits showed why intellect alone may not be enough

Antonio Damasio's patients had intact IQs, intact memories, and no ability to make a decision. Their brain injuries revealed a truth neuroscience is still catching up with: emotion is not the opposite of reason — it is the mechanism that makes reason work. Read more
