Answer complex questions about the research. Visualize data and models dynamically. Update themselves with new findings. Interact with other research AIs for collaborative discovery. This could create a “living web” of scientific knowledge that accelerates innovation. 2. Anthropic’s “Skills” — AI That Learns Complex Workflows Anthropic’s Claude introduces “Skills” — reusable, text-based modules that encode best practices for tasks (e.g., coding, analysis, report creation). These can be shared on GitHub and loaded into any major AI (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok). It’s like creating AI plug-ins for expertise, letting anyone work at professional standards faster. 3. XAI and Elon Musk’s Big X (Twitter) Upgrade Elon Musk announced a major overhaul of X’s recommendation system: Grok will read every post and video (≈100M/day). It will personalize feeds precisely and remove old heuristics. Users can verbally customize feeds (“Only show me football”). The goal: fix visibility issues, boost new creators, and make X as profitable and personalized as YouTube. Musk also said content creators on X are underpaid — and pay rates will rise. 4. AI in Science & Google’s Breakthrough Google DeepMind achieved an AI-driven cancer research breakthrough, where AI made original, useful discoveries — not just analysis. This marks the beginning of AI as a true scientific collaborator. Brian Wang Brian Wang is a Futurist Thought Leader and a popular Science blogger with 1 million readers per month.
