Right now the Trillion Dollar problem that AI is 'solving' is AI.

The market is crashing into oblivion.

This is the problem solving we need in our communities.

The thing that makes a "solution" so exciting isn't that a problem has been solved - it's that the method for solving that problem prompts a cascading reconsideration of many other areas of mathematics, prompting shifts to large areas of the discipline.

hey y'all remember when we were reallllly trying not to clear 1.5C and then a bunch of assholes decided it was easier to buy a bunker than work on solving the problem

We've now cleared it 4 years in a row
October 2026 was the warmest October on record in Copernicus' ERA5 dataset, coming in at 1.75C above preindustrial levels.

Unreal. Not surprising. Voter suppression.

Solving another non-existent problem.

Check out the expertise reversal effect! Experts and beginners do *not* always benefit from the same types of practice and problem solving.
Good thread. I've talked about friction and junior engineers a lot, so to be clear, I mean "productive friction."

Also I suspect that what is productive friction for a junior engineer is often unproductive friction for a senior engineer.
Unproductive friction:
- unnecessarily blocks you from some better use of time
- learning gains that generalize diminish but task doesn't diminish (ie rote work)
- could be interesting for a diff learning goal but not the one at hand (eg kids struggling with math word problems bc of reading skills)

this is a total tangent to the itch thing but I've seen a few ppl commenting like "itch's no AI tag has a bunch of tho" and... solving the problem of "people lie about this" is going to be a problem very soon everywhere, in everything, so I hope everyone's thinking real hard about it

“These kids might not be gay” is the biggest non-problem in the world. Like ok and? If that’s true they’re gonna figure it out real quick as soon as the rubber meets the road here. Self solving issue

What problem are we solving, etc. etc.
Starbucks CEO says the company is planning to focus more on AI and tech, including a adding system that would recognize customers as they arrive in stores to "present personalized digital menus."

Terrific visual of how the sexes differ in problem solving.

This is the kind of problem-solving that was better suited to the Fantastic Four. I don't want the Avengers dealing with puzzles like this!

🧩 Can problem-solving skills transfer from one subject to another? I talk with Héctor Ruiz Martín about why knowledge matters for problem solving and why problem solving skills are largely domain-specific.

Do you guys want to talk about learning strategies and productive problem-solving??????? I just LOVE these topics and it's such a relief to chat about it outside of the "everyone's brain is melting" scream box 😭
