OpenAI thinks it’s found the root of AI “hallucinations” — and a way to fix them. The idea? Teach models to admit when they don’t know instead of bluffing.

AI isn’t just changing the workplace—it’s reshaping who even gets to enter it. A groundbreaking Stanford study reveals that the very workers once seen as the future—22 to 25-year-olds in tech and customer service—are now its first casualties.

Augmented Reality with Chrome: Let Flowers Grow!
With Chrome 81 Beta for Android, it’s now possible to use immersive Augmented Reality in the browser. I have again created two variations of the original demo source code to show what is easily possible.

A minimal Web Push example
Web push notifications allow users to opt-in to asynchronous messages from a server to a web application. The message can be sent at any time, even when the web application or the web browser is inactive. This W3C standard, based on the HTTP/2 protocol, is now supported by Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera, and Safari – but not by iOS.
An Alexa skill for New York City transport service changes
Playing around with the idea of Alexa Skills based on live data feeds, I created an Alexa Skill which announces unplanned service changes of the New York City subway and bus lines, based on information provided by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA).
