The Japanese Pavilion at the 2025 Venice Biennale Explores Artificial Intelligence in Architectural Processes 🇯🇵 🇮🇹
The exhibition explores the growing autonomy of AI in architectural design, raising questions about the shifting relationship between human agency and machine intelligence. The showcase aligns with the overarching theme "Intelligens. Natural. Artificial. Collective," curated by Carlo Ratti.

Can’t wait to talk to my future self! — a great example for positive impact of human+AI collaboration @medialab @FluidInterfaces
FutureYou, developed by @fluidinterfaces student @patpat_mit, encourages users to explore possible futures by allowing them to chat with an older version of themselves. “The goal is to promote long-term thinking + behaviour change,” Pataranutaporn says. theguardian.com/technology/a…
Robots are the “convergence and embodiment of both the Industrial Revolution's mechanization of physical labor, & the computer/Al revolution's mechanization of cognitive labor” writes @michaelmoe open.substack.com/pub/dashme…

"Kindness is a currency. And generosity is absolutely the best investment." Diane, I couldn't agree more. #DVF is a legend in more ways than one!
Read @jackhidary of @SandboxAQ latest article @Forbes on using #AI to build data models from ground up to discover life-saving drugs, new battery chemistries, sustainable construction materials, building new AI learning systems for corp leaders & kids worldwide, etc #Davos2024
AI models such as ChatGPT do well when trained on large amounts of data. But how can we leverage the power of AI when there isn’t a lot of data - the reality for most cases in the physical world?
My latest @Forbes article explores how researchers are using #AI and #simulation to build data from the ground up to create real-world breakthroughs. Simulation will help us discover new life-saving drugs, more effective battery chemistries, more sustainable construction materials, alternatives to toxic forever chemicals, and more. bit.ly/3tSYtUo
Thx @lexfridman for reminding the unique brilliance, scientific, artistic, and humanistic qualities of @NeriOxman as expressed in your recent conversation
I had the honor of talking to @NeriOxman a few months ago. She is one of the most brilliant, innovative, and kind-hearted people I've ever gotten to know.
What Business Insider is doing is a disgrace to journalism, and harms humanity... we should celebrate amazing scientists, engineers, and innovators like Neri.
I'm posting our conversation here on X so you can hear for yourself. See other platforms for when it was originally posted.

I read w/deep interest @billackman & all issues raised on #HES. Today, I like that he’s seeking companies that develop #AI for assessing #academicintegrity.
It’s going to be soooo helpful for all scientists/journalists/poets/authors themselves—writers & publishers everywhere!

The uses of @X by @BillAckman are historic & innovative—the content (brilliant) & speedy responses his essays generate fast. I’m awaiting to learn how he’s utilizing AI as his co-worker on X. (I’m not a big fan of @ElonMusk or @X yet grateful that Ackman & Oxman have a platform!)
