The shared language of a software project is the c=

Apple is in talks with PrismML to shrin=
k powerful AI models to run directly on iPhones. PrismML is known for reduc= ing Alibaba's Qwen model from roughly 54 GB to less than 4 GB. The most cap= able models typically require too much memory and processing power to run o=
n a smartphone, but running requests in the cloud presents security and oth=
er issues. Running AI directly on the iPhone reduces delay, lowers cloud co= mputing costs, enables offline usage, and supports Apple's privacy pitch.

Terminal lucidity is when gravely ill p= eople have a sudden and unexpected moment of mental clarity. This seemingly=
impossible phenomenon has been seen in people with dementia, tumors, neuro= logical disorders, and many other forms of brain-ravaging illness. The abil= ity for the brain to - even temporarily - return to mental clarity calls in=
to question scientists' models of what is actually going on in the brain. U= nderstanding the phenomenon more could lead to improved caregiving practice=
s and also a new understanding of the nature of dementia.

<strong>The Tower Keeps Rising (4 m= inute read)</strong>
</span>
<span style=3D"font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, V= erdana, sans-serif;">
The shared language of a software proje=
ct is the common understanding of what its concepts mean, where the boundar= ies are, which invariants matter, who owns what, and why the system has the=
shape it does. This language lives partly in documentation and code, but a= lso in code review, conversations, arguments, and many other places. AI rem= oves a lot of the friction that comes with understanding all of that contex=
t. This can result in code that looks strange but works while removing the = friction of human understanding.

<strong>The Great Flattening (21 mi= nute read)</strong>
</span>
<span style=3D"font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, V= erdana, sans-serif;">
The backlog is becoming less of a capac= ity problem and more of a choice as intelligence costs drop. AI allows peop=
le to execute a hundred ideas for the cost of one, allowing founders to bui=
ld them all and find out which ones matter. The constraint shifts from 'can=
we build it?' to 'can we identify what to build, and can we sell it?' The = companies that see this are already flat by design: fewer engineers, larger=
token spend, faster shipping, and a direct line from a customer's sentence=
to merged code.

OpenAI was hoping that its hardware wou=
