A little over a decade ago, I led the controls design for a first-of-its-kind full digital-control system for a U.S. nuclear plant. It was, on paper, a beautiful machine—engineered to run itself the way a modern airliner does, with operators watching over a system that rarely ne…

If you own an at-home server, a gaming computer, or just a laptop that doesn’t get much love, listen up. You can now put that spare computing power to use and earn some passive income in the process. AI companies are hungry for more compute to run AI inference—the process of usi…

Prompt Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or any other popular large language model with a question like “What is the best film ever made?” and the response will vary. And you (and most worryingly, the people who built the LLM) have little idea exactly how it came up with that specific an…
