Today, we’re continuing to push the boundaries of AI with our release of Gemini 3.1 Pro.

This updated model scores 77.1% on ARC-AGI-2, more than double the reasoning performance of its predecessor, Gemini 3 Pro.

Check out the visible improvement in this side-by-side comparison, showing Gemini 3.1 Pro’s crisp animation built with pure code.

The first cohort of Stripe econ of AI fellows: (+thread, with some thoughts on the state of the field)

[Ethan Mollick @emollick]

The past 18 months have seen the most rapid change in human written communication ever

By. September 2024, 18% of financial consumer complaints, 24% of press releases, 15% of job postings & 14% of UN press releases showed signs of LLM writing. And the method undercounts true use

[Weixin Liang @liang_weixin]

🚨 New research: We analyzed 1.5M+ documents to track LLM-assisted writing adoption across society from 2022-2024. The results?

📊By late 2024, LLMs assist in writing:
- 18% of financial consumer complaints
- 24% of corporate press releases
- Up to 15% of job postings (esp. in small/young firms)
- 14% of UN press releases

All showing similar adoption trajectories despite diverse contexts.

Sorry to learn that Max Corden has passed away.
His book "Trade Policy and Economic Welfare" was an inspiration, and the idea of effective protection is a lasting part of the trade canon
