Researchers proved AI has deleted every reason universities exist.
Harvard University ran a controlled experiment pitting a custom AI against their own top-tier classrooms.
And the results are going to collapse the higher education bubble.
They took 194 undergraduates and split them up.
One group learned physics in one of Harvard’s best hands-on, active-learning physical classrooms. Group work. Instructor support. The premium university experience.
The other group went home and learned the exact same material with an AI tutor.
The AI didn't just win. It embarrassed the institution.
Students using the AI learned more than twice as much as the students in the elite Harvard classroom.
They scored 30% higher on the final assessment.
And they did it in less time.
Let that sink in.
A piece of software sitting on a laptop outperformed a world-class faculty in one of the most elite learning environments on Earth.
Universities have always justified their exorbitant tuition with two things: access to elite knowledge and the physical classroom experience.
This study just proved both of those moats are gone.
When software can teach you complex physics twice as well as a $60,000-a-year institution, the math of higher education breaks permanently.
The AI didn't just give the students answers. It used strict pedagogical guardrails. It guided. It questioned. It forced the students to do the cognitive work.
It offered perfect, one-to-one tutoring, personalized to the exact moment a student misunderstood a concept.
That level of attention is mathematically impossible to scale in a physical lecture hall.
For a thousand years, the university was the only place to get a premium education.
Now, it’s the bottleneck.
If AI can double your learning speed for a fraction of the cost, what exactly are students taking on decades of debt to pay for?
A remarkable moment at BRICS!
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian heard the message of Sanatan Dharma from Jagadguru Swami Satishacharya Ji Maharaj on peace and welfare for all and then touched his feet to seek his blessings.
He who eats once a day is a Yogi (spiritual/healthy person); he who eats twice a day is a Bhogi (one who seeks strength, vitality, or worldly enjoyment); and he who eats three times a day is a Rogi (a sick person)."

@aravind@NidLeoz Bharat China mutual understanding is beyond your tiny mind's potential. You need couple of more births to understand and, yes provided you stay in Bharat and don't runaway.
We have to accept the possibility that all mathematics could fall to AI within some months, however unsettling that might seem.
ie AI better than all humans at math.
That's because math is not fundamentally "hard"... primates are just really bad at it. We did not evolve to be efficient at manipulating math symbols.
We think of Terrence Tao as a legend, and he is on a human scale -- multiple standard deviations better at math than me. But to an AI, going from Will-level ability to Terrence-level math ability just means something like a 10x bigger context window, 10x bigger RL run, and 10x more test-time compute.
Solving math in the past seemed to require some creative human spark we couldn't understand, but it's increasingly looking more like a mechanical search process over symbols. The aura and mystique mathematicians maintained for millennia can be reframed as them being extremely talented at this mechanical process. They can't compete with an alien creature trained exactly for this purpose, with compute specs far beyond Terrence.
By 2027 we'll be cranking out mathematical beauties each morning like Alan Turing cranking out Enigma codes before breakfast. We'll still be bottlenecked by compute for a few years, so the big discoveries will come gradually -- those will take the most computation.
Is this sad? Well like software engineering, those people who enjoy it for love of the craft or for their unique abilities compared to other humans will feel diminished. But those who love it for the end results will relish in a golden age of math.
Humans will still be the ones mapping the mathematical landscape. The AIs will act like the helicopters taking us wherever we want to go. You gotta pay to ride in compute.
You could map different human intellectual activities to whether it's "hard" in a computational sense. Human-level chess is easy, that's why computer solved it early. Moving limbs in physical space however is very hard. We're good at it bc we benefited from hundreds of millions of years of evolution.
Software engineering is somewhere in the middle, because it's intertwined with a messy complex physical world filled with computationally hard emotions and group dynamics.
So that's why weirdly we'll soon have AIs that dominate all humans on math, and yet we won't fully trust them as software engineers.
@Frank_Giustra@RpsAgainstTrump God's reference can motivate one for full dedication to humanity otherwise it will be based on personal mindset & limits. That can vary from Hitler to Jesus Christ or any any other God.
What will be your choice?
@silvertrade@Psps69919765 Sorry to say but that this is the difference between rest and Indian DNA. If critical they sacrifice. That is the reason this civilization is still breathing.
@silvertrade He is not challenging importance of Gold. May be he is pointing that there will be lucrative price in future when key currencies get devalued rupee will appreciate relatively.
1500 years ago, an Indian prince from Tamil Nadu 🇮🇳 journeyed to China, where he spent nine years meditating in a cave.
Bodhidharma went on to become a legendary figure in Shaolin Kung Fu and Zen Buddhism — a timeless bridge between Indian and Chinese civilizations. 🧘♂️🥋🇮🇳🇨🇳

@sanjeevsanyal Sir, it should be qualified which vaccine, to avoid misconceptions in Bharat. Fauci is linked to mRNA and statement should be for mRNA vaccines. Please clarify.
@riteshmjn No country can complete with US in devaluation because of huge debt and currency in circulation. India couldn't print much in decades and now there is no time left. Hence it is bound to appreciate.
@RayDalio Exactly!!!
*Temptations subsides.
*Start getting visibility behind the seen, wider & long term view.
*Start taking holistic approach.
*Thorni spikes of personality get smoother and others thorny doesn't hurt you.
@svembu@narendramodi 4. Govt get some revenue from these as well
5. National level industries feed raw materials and machinery
6. These local industries must do local CR activity and help developing local area.
6. In summary hierarchical Industries and high tech/invest at , national level.
#2 of 2
@svembu@narendramodi
1. In reset, kill all FMCG and similar low tech industries, and not allow to list in stock market
2. Fund these industries at smaller scale at district level to cater local area and provide jobs to locals.
3. Investers must be around that area and govt

Every browser says it protects your privacy.
A former Tor, Mozilla, and Brave engineer built a website that makes them prove it.
It is called PrivacyTests
Open it and you get a giant table comparing:
> Brave
> Chrome
> DuckDuckGo
> Edge
> Firefox
> LibreWolf
> Mullvad
> Opera
> Safari
> Tor
> Ungoogled Chromium
> Vivaldi
Every browser is tested using its default settings.
No extensions. No secret setup that normal people will never use.
The site checks whether websites can share hidden data to follow you, build a fingerprint from your device, keep tracking you after you restart the browser, or leak the websites you visit through DNS.
It also checks whether the browser blocks 20 of the largest tracking companies on the internet.
Green means the browser stopped the leak.
Red means your data got through.
A guy named Arthur Edelstein built the project after years of working on browser privacy.
Browser companies spend millions telling you they are private.
One man made them all sit the same exam.
Starbucks employees expose that Starbucks is using “blending powder” in many of their newer drinks
This new powder was just introduced this month. If you drink Starbucks you should be concerned about this
This “blending powder” consists of Gum arabic, maltodextrin, xanthan gum, natural flavor, silica and stevia extract (rebaudioside-A)
The reason they use it is because it acts as an emulsifier and stabilizer
The gums and other components create a smoother, more consistent frozen blended texture and slows separation that would otherwise happen soon after the drink leaves the blender
Starbucks employees have been making videos saying it makes their throats hurt, makes them cough and makes their head hurt
The silica is silicon dioxide and acts as an anti-caking agent. This is a very controversial ingredient for health concerns
But it’s also a concern for these Starbucks employees because inhaling it is dangerous
Fine silica dust can become airborne when the powder is scooped. Prolonged or repeated inhalation of certain forms of silica is linked to serious lung conditions like silicosis
This should not be put in drinks we consume
Our food is a science experiment
‘Starbucks Workers United and individual baristas have publicly raised concerns since the powder’s introduction around mid-July 2026. Reports include the powder becoming airborne easily, along with some partners mentioning symptoms like sore throats, coughing, or chest irritation’
