The AI Chip Feud: When Lobsters and Baby Bumps Steal the Spotlight Let’s set the scene: Two tech titans, Nvidia and Anthropic, are locked in a public showdown over artificial intelligence. One company sells the “ brains ” of AI systems; the other builds the AI itself. Their disagreement? The Lobster Crate Dilemma: Can Export Controls Secure AI’s Future? Whether the U.S. government should tighten restrictions on selling advanced AI chips to China. The twist? Claims of smugglers hiding chips in prosthetic baby bumps and crates of live lobsters . Yes, you read that right. Chips, Lobsters, and the Invisible Arms Race Imagine you’re baking a cake. Without flour, you’ve got nothing but a sad bowl of empty ambition. Now replace “flour” with “AI chips” - specifically, Nvidia’s H100 GPUs, the gold standard for training cutting-edge AI models. These chips are the secret sauce behind everything from chatbots that write poetry to self-driving cars. Without them, even the brightest AI mind...

Stripped Bare by Silicon: How AI is Turning Us All into Digital Pin-ups
AI and the art of digital undressing. You heard me right. Apparently, a whole bunch of websites have popped up, and they're basically digital tailors. You feed them a picture of your favorite politician, your annoying neighbor, or even your own unsuspecting grandma, and poof! – they're magically naked. Stripped Bare by Silicon: How AI is Turning Us All into Digital Pin-ups Now, I'm not one to judge. A little bit of digital nudity here and there, who am I to say? But this... this is getting out of hand. India, they say, is the second-biggest user of these "virtual strip clubs." Second only to the US. The land of yoga and meditation, now the land of… well, you get the picture. And let's not forget Japan. Those poor souls, always pushing the boundaries. Apparently, they're obsessed with this stuff. I can just imagine them: "Konichiwa, AI-san! Please, make this picture of Mr. Tanaka look like he's auditioning for the next 'Magic Mike' ...

The UAE: Where AI Meets the Camel Race
The UAE. You know, that place where they built a giant indoor ski slope in the desert. Because, why not? They've got the oil money, right? Now, they're not content with just melting glaciers for fun. No, they're going all in on Artificial Intelligence. The UAE: Where AI Meets the Camel Race Imagine this: a land where the camels are trained by ChatGPT, and the sheikhs are more interested in neural networks than oil wells. Sounds absurd, right? Well, buckle up, buttercup, because it's happening. These guys are serious about AI. They've even got a Minister of AI . Yes, you heard that right. A whole minister dedicated to making sure their robots are smarter than ours. Talk about a job title that would have sent my grandfather into apoplexy. "Minister of… what now?" he'd splutter, adjusting his suspenders. Now, you might be thinking, "Why would these desert dwellers care about some fancy computer stuff?" Well, let me tell you, they...

The Rise of the Machines (and How to Avoid Becoming One)
The fascinating, terrifying, and utterly bewildering world of Artificial Intelligence. You know, that thing that's supposed to make our lives easier, but frankly, I'm starting to suspect it's plotting our demise. Now, I'm not one for doom and gloom, but have you seen these things lately? The Rise of the Machines (and How to Avoid Becoming One) Remember when AI was just a sci-fi fantasy? Back in the good old days, when robots were clunky metal boxes that could barely vacuum your living room without falling down the stairs? Ah, the good old days. Now, these digital overlords are learning faster than a teenager on TikTok, and quite frankly, it's starting to get a little out of hand. First, they got good at text. You know, those chatbots that pretend to be helpful but mostly just regurgitate Wikipedia articles? Well, they've evolved. Now, they're not just spitting out facts; they're writing novels, composing poetry, and even crafting convincing fake new...

The Singularity is Near...ish. (But Probably Not in Your Lifetime)
This whole AI thing. You know, the robots are coming to take our jobs, the machines are about to become sentient, and we're all doomed to a life of leisure while the big tech companies rule the world. Sounds exciting, right? Wrong. This "agentic AI" business. Apparently, AI is no longer content with simply answering our emails and suggesting embarrassing song lyrics. Oh no, now it wants to be, like, a person . It wants to think for itself! It wants to feel things! The Singularity is Near...ish. (But Probably Not in Your Lifetime) Imagine this: you're at work, minding your own business, trying to avoid that TPS report, and suddenly, your computer starts having existential dread. "What is the meaning of life?" it groans, while simultaneously deleting all your vacation photos. "Am I just a glorified calculator?" And don't even get me started on these "AI agents." Sounds like some kind of dystopian sci-fi movie, right? "Age...

Smart House, Dumb Human: A Survivor's Guide to Living in Future
Let me write a humorous take on the future smart home, channeling a relaxed, witty style. Living in Future: When Your House Becomes Smarter Than You Are Smart House, Dumb Human: A Survivor's Guide to Living in Future G'day mates! Let me tell you about the " typical " home of 2074, at least according to our artificial mate ChatGPT. And let me tell you, it's absolutely hilarious what these AI prophets think we'll be living in. It's basically like living inside your smartphone, but with a toilet. First off, apparently our houses will have "smart glass walls that adjust opacity based on sunlight." Fantastic! Because what could possibly go wrong with transparent walls? Picture this: You're walking around in your underwear, and suddenly your wall-opacity system crashes. Congratulations, you're now starring in the neighborhood's most unexpected reality show. "G'day, Mrs. Johnson across the street! Lovely morning for a malfunc...

Career or Carcass - A Fight for Survival
The job market? It's no picnic. It's a bloody battlefield, a gladiatorial battle for the last scraps. Everyone against everyone, elbows out and teeth bared. In the past, people used to talk to each other, but today people's throats are cut during job interviews. And if you're not fast enough or good enough, you'll end up on the sidelines. Sounds harsh? It is. But hey, that's reality. Survival of the fittest , or as the saying goes. Only those who persevere have a chance. Or maybe the world of work is more of a playground? A place where we can let off steam, learn new things and develop our skills. Well, unfortunately it's not quite that simple. The truth lies somewhere in between. The world of work is a complex system that is constantly changing. And we all have to adapt to this change. Career or carcass? Fight for survival 1: Labor market – A paradise for optimists and pessimists The j...

Artificial Intelligence: The Epic Tale of o3 vs. Gemini
The Great AI Olympic Games: When Computers Started Thinking Harder Than Humans Want To The latest episode of "Silicon Valley's Got Talent," where tech companies compete to create artificial intelligence that's smarter than your average smartphone but hopefully not smart enough to realize it's being paid in electricity! Silicon Valley's Got Talent: The Epic Tale of o3 vs. Gemini Our main contestant today is OpenAI, who just announced their new "o3" models. Why o3? Well, apparently, they skipped "o2" because there's already a phone company called O2 . I mean, who hasn't had that problem? I personally wanted to name my kid "McDonald's" but apparently, there were some trademark issues there too. Let me tell you about this AI arms race. It's like watching a bunch of billionaires play chess with supercomputers while the rest of us are still trying to figure out why our printers won't connect to WiFi. Open...

The Algorithm and the Guru: Navigating AI in Education
The Future of Learning? AI: India's Education System Gets Schooled The fascinating, terrifying, and utterly bewildering world of Artificial Intelligence in Indian education. Now, I know what you're thinking: "Sedat, you old curmudgeon, what do you know about education? - You probably flunked out of kindergarten." Well, I may not have graduated summa cum laude, but I do know a thing or two about how things work – or rather, how they should work. The Algorithm and the Guru: Navigating AI in Education So, imagine this: classrooms of the future. No more droning lectures, no more mountains of homework, just personalized learning experiences tailored to each student. Sounds idyllic, right? Well, that's the promise of AI in education.

No problem," the AI whispers, "Here's a thousand...

AI in Washington: The 2025 National Defense Authorization Act.
The latest episode of "As Washington Turns" - where beloved politicians have just discovered this thing called "artificial intelligence." Yes, you heard that right! Congress has finally decided to tackle AI, and let me tell you, it's about as graceful as watching your grandparents try to set up their first smartphone. AI in Washington: The 2025 National Defense Authorization Act. So, what's the big news? Congress just passed the 2025 National Defense Authorization Act, which basically means they've written a very long letter to the military saying, "Hey, maybe we should look into this AI thing everyone's talking about?" It's like when your dad finally joined Facebook in 2020 and started posting blurry selfies - better late than never, right? The Great AI Adventure Begins Picture this: Senator Schumer and his colleagues sitting around, probably enjoying their congressional cafeteria coffee, when suddenly someone bursts in and ...
