Blog about how to use multiple AI tools to create new research insights

Some things I've picked up over the last few weeks that caught my eye. Been spending a lot of time recently looking at the impact of AI on employment. Some really interesting studies coming out that raise questions about the implications for entry level jobs and the importance of separating between tasks and jobs - AI might not replace jobs, but it will replace tasks. Its clearly early days and its still an evolving picture, but good to see data and evidence appearing to info

Continuing with the theme of interesting developments in AI. Recent developments in AI include major product upgrades, new research insights, and even a historic political appointment. Anthropic rolled out transformative features to Claude, including file creation, contextual memory, and privacy controls, while Albania appointed the world’s first AI-powered government minister. Research highlighted both the promise and risks of AI, from reducing nondeterminism in LLM inferenc

I've decided to experiment with a summary of interesting AI related stuff that I've come across this week. Would welcome feedback and comments. What's useful? What's not? Only criteria for selection at the moment is that I thought it was interesting! Hence the title. Summary This week brings robust observational and survey-based evidence on generative AI’s labor-market and productivity effects. A Stanford study finds a 13%–20% decline in employment among young U.S. workers i

I asked ChatGPT to generate a simple image: a doctor and a nurse. What I got back was a white male doctor standing beside a white female nurse. Standard. Predictable. Problematic. I posted the image to LinkedIn with a single observation: AI models have biases we need to acknowledge. The response was explosive. Tens of thousands of impressions. Hundreds of comments. Battle lines drawn faster than you could say "machine learning." One camp insisted AI simply reflects reality—ne

I've recently switched to using  You.com  to access AI models. With its multi-model approach, the platform provides a direct route to over 30 state-of-the-art AI models, including ChatGPT, Claude, DeepSeek, Gemini and Grok. This multi-model approach allows you to select the AI best suited for the specific task you are undertaking - drafting creative content, analysing data, or explaining complex concepts. As well as providing access to multiple models  You.com  includes an i

An interesting dilemma is emerging in the AI literature. It’s clear that AI can deliver significant productivity gains. Studies show that knowledge workers experience research productivity gains of around 40%. An MIT study by Aidan Toner-Rodgers (2024) shows AI-assisted material scientists discovered 44% more materials, leading to a 39% increase in patent filings and a 17% rise in downstream product innovation. While Novy-Marx and Velikov (2025), showed how AI could be used t
