Great discussion about @sizzle_ai

[Robert Scoble @Scobleizer]

Just sat down with Yev Marusenko, @DoctorYev, from Sizzle AI—an edtech app with millions of users that’s rethinking how our kids (and we) learn in the AI era.

📱 Sizzle isn’t just “ChatGPT for homework.” It builds entire courses from your prompts—bite-sized, mobile, interactive.

💡 Why it matters: Instead of cheating with AI, this app leans into learning science, adaptive quizzes, and self-testing, which boosts memory and real understanding.

🧪 They’re testing models fast (mostly using Gemini at scale), but the real differentiation is in the pedagogy—less gamification dopamine, more brain growth.

🎯 Parents: It’s great for summer learning, SAT prep, or homeschool reinforcement. You type “Bio 101,” it makes the course.

📉 $9.99/month, geo-priced cheaper globally.

Also love how they’re thinking about the tension between virality vs. value. As we all learn how to learn again, tools like this could be foundational.

A good take from @forepreston on @sizzle_ai and its vision https://t.co/6tmEZp2rQX

[Jerome Pesenti @an_open_mind]

@BEBischof @OpenAI Seeing the same thing.

[Jerome Pesenti @an_open_mind]

Great article from Forbes on our official @sizzle_ai launch https://t.co/5pNS5p2XbS

[Jerome Pesenti @an_open_mind]

I left @MetaAI last year and started a new company- @sizzle_ai - to make learning amazing for everyone. We just launched our beta app, a baby step toward that big vision, that uses AI to help learners work through any problem, step-by-step.

Download it @ https://t.co/H44MUf5Ojk

@zdhnarsil Me neither. Check out https://t.co/IuK5k9mICU or https://t.co/NfszlI89dt

The key to better drugs is data. @OwkinScience shows the way with the first use of federated learning to get insights with AI from multiple independent sources of patient data while leaving it secured behind hospitals’ firewalls.

[Owkin @OwkinScience]

Today, @NatureMedicine published Owkin research showing the first use of #federatedlearning to train #AI models using histopathology data kept within multiple hospitals. This has the potential to unlock breakthroughs in precision medicine.

My chat with @l2k for the @wandb podcast about Large Language Models, @PyTorch, my experience at @Meta and @IBMWatson, and the applications of AI that will change the world https://t.co/9v0lnBEigW

[Jerome Pesenti @an_open_mind]

New papers from @MetaAI on protein design. In the future, we'll be able to program life through protein machines like we program computers today. This is a significant step in that direction

@djstrouse Not so much conviction after all ;-)

[Jerome Pesenti @an_open_mind]

PyTorch 2.0 - 38-76% speed up while 100% backward compatible. Wow! Congrats to the @PyTorch team.

[PyTorch @PyTorch]

We just introduced PyTorch 2.0 at the #PyTorchConference, introducing torch.compile!

Available in the nightlies today, stable release Early March 2023.
