AI MAKES THE HUMANITIES MORE IMPORTANT, BUT ALSO A LOT WEIRDER

Generative AI presents both challenges and opportunities for the humanities. AI elevates the importance of humanistic skills, especially in language processing and cultural understanding, but it also undermines core aspects of education by letting students bypass real intellectual engagement.

CHATGPT FUTURE JUST REVEALED — GET READY FOR A ‘SUPER ASSISTANT'

The Justice Department's antitrust case against Google revealed a heavily redacted document from OpenAI from late 2024 that detailed the company's internal strategy and its goal to create a de facto 'interface to the internet'. While much of the document was blacked out, it was clear how much OpenAI expects ChatGPT to revolutionize the internet. The company planned to spend the first half of 2025 building out ChatGPT as a super assistant and then shift in the second half to generating monetizable demand. One of the company's cornerstone strategies is to build out more data centers to keep up with ChatGPT's ballooning user base.

SYSTEMS CORRECTNESS PRACTICES AT AMAZON WEB SERVICES

AWS strives to deliver reliable services that customers can trust completely, which requires maintaining the highest standards of security durability, integrity, and availability. Systems correctness serves as the cornerstone for achieving these priorities. This article looks at the formal methods used across AWS to deliver complex services with high confidence in correctness. It covers more traditional formal approaches such as theorem proving, deductive verification, and model checking, as well as more lightweight semi-formal approaches such as property-based testing, fuzzing, and runtime monitoring.

FOR SOME RECENT GRADUATES, THE A.I. JOB APOCALYPSE MAY ALREADY BE HERE

Millions of young graduates are entering into industries that have little use for their skills, view them as expensive and expendable, and are rapidly phasing out their jobs in favor of artificial intelligence. This emerging crisis for entry-level workers is being fueled in part by rapid advances in AI capabilities. Unemployment for recent college graduates has jumped to an unusually high 5.8% in recent months. While some executives are making a calculated bet on AI systems, there are many risks, for example, the expectation that entry-level jobs are short-lived may lead companies to underinvest in job training, mentorship, and other programs aimed at entry-level workers, leaving those workers unprepared for more senior roles later on.

WHY DEEPSEEK IS CHEAP AT SCALE BUT EXPENSIVE TO RUN LOCALLY

Models that are Mixture-of-Experts with many layers, like DeepSeek, require large batch sizes and high latency otherwise throughput drops off a cliff. This is why it is commonly said that DeepSeek can't be easily run for personal use - with a single user running one inference at a time, it runs at a very low efficiency/throughput. This article explains this phenomenon in detail, as well as why some AI models are slow to respond but fast once they get going and the other effects of throughput, latency, and batch sizes.

PANTERA MAY 2025 BLOCKCHAIN LETTER

Digital Asset Treasury companies (DATs) are emerging as public-market vehicles that mirror MicroStrategy's model, enabling investors to gain Bitcoin or other crypto exposure through listed equity by harvesting volatility and issuing convertible instruments. Unlike ETFs, DATs lock up crypto indefinitely, potentially compounding crypto-per-share growth and reducing sell pressure on underlying assets. Separately, stablecoins have become crypto's “killer app” by placing dollars onchain and driving demand for U.S. Treasuries via tokens, while the forthcoming GENIUS Act aims to formalize their regulatory framework.

STABLECOINS ARE A NEW PLATFORM

Stablecoins are evolving beyond a simple payments rail into a foundational infrastructure layer, akin to how the internet disrupted telecom, for global, 24/7, programmable finance across B2B, B2C, and infrastructure stacks. The GENIUS Act's regulatory clarity will treat permitted stablecoin issuers' tokens as cash equivalents, sparking a funding surge and driving widespread adoption in cross‑border payments, domestic treasury applications, and embedded finance. By abstracting existing rails like SWIFT, ACH, and PIX into a unified, developer‑friendly platform, stablecoins unlock new use cases like instant B2B transfers, treasury yield optimization, stablecoin‑native checking accounts, and programmable prepaid cards. Companies that learn from past BaaS successes and failures and develop robust stablecoin approaches will be best positioned to thrive as finance moves on‑chain.
