The Brain Doesn’t Use Feedback Loops. That’s Why Robots Still Move Like Robots.

Decades of control theory assume biological movement is feedback-driven. New research suggests the opposite: the mammalian brain executes movement open-loop, using accurate inverse models to predict—not correct—its way to action. The Inverter framework applies this principle to robotics, challenging the brute-force paradigm and pointing toward machines that move like humans.

The AI Industry Is Brute-Forcing Its Way to a Dead End. Here’s What Actually Works.

The AI industry’s obsession with scaling LLMs is a brute-force dead end, burning billions in compute for diminishing returns. Integrating structured ontologies with machine learning offers a more efficient, interpretable, and logic-grounded path. This article argues for a hybrid approach that combines the flexibility of neural networks with the rigor of explicit knowledge—saving costs and enabling true reasoning.

Stop Celebrating AI’s New ‘Breakthroughs.’ They’re Expensive Parlor Tricks.

AI models like Fable 5 and GPT-5.6 Sol have officially ‘solved’ the complex puzzle game Baba Is You, sparking celebrations across the tech industry. But look past the hype. By brute-forcing the benchmark through sheer computational scale, these models have exposed a brittle measure of intelligence. We aren’t building minds; we’re building expensive parlor tricks that fail the moment a variable changes.

Stop Chasing Every AI Trend. DeepSeek Is Winning by Doing the Exact Opposite.

While the AI industry exhausts itself chasing every shiny new trend and short-term revenue stream, DeepSeek is playing a completely different game. By ruthlessly prioritizing foundational model improvement over market share, and turning open-source into an engineering efficiency moat, they are proving that discipline—not speed—wins the marathon.

Why AI Will Never Invent the Next World-Changing Idea (And Why That’s Great for Humanity)

AI excels at pattern matching but cannot make true zero-to-one leaps. This article explains why human imagination remains irreplaceable, and why that’s not a weakness but our greatest strength. From airplanes to relativity, the breakthroughs that changed the world came from genuine reasoning, not interpolation.

Everyone’s Building AI Models. That’s Exactly the Problem.

Poolside’s Model Factory concept reveals an uncomfortable truth: while everyone obsesses over AI model performance, the real moat is the infrastructure that produces, deploys, and iterates on models at scale. The model is the product; the factory is the company. If you’re not building one, you’re just buying parts — and parts don’t compound.
