AI ON MY MIND

Happy Thursday,

Researchers from Google and Yale have demonstrated a major step forward for AI in medicine. An AI model was used to generate a novel hypothesis for cancer therapy, which was then successfully validated in a lab.

This represents a significant move from AI simply analyzing existing data to becoming a creative partner in scientific discovery. The key question is: how quickly could this new collaborative approach between AI and human researchers accelerate breakthroughs in other complex fields?

By the way, I've been getting questions about how AI works in practice, so I'm launching a separate newsletter that dives deeper into real business applications and practical advice. [Click here if you're interested].

TODAY’S TOP STORIES

AI's Cancer Breakthrough

The Recap: Google and Yale researchers used an AI model to generate a completely new hypothesis for a cancer therapy pathway. In a major milestone for AI in science, scientists then experimentally validated the prediction in living cells.

Unpacked:

  • The model was tasked with finding a way to make "cold" tumors, which are notorious for evading the immune system, visible to the body's defenses.

  • It identified that the drug silmitasertib, when paired with low-dose interferon, could effectively "heat up" these tumors.

  • Experimental validation confirmed the AI's hypothesis, showing a 50% increase in the signals that help immune cells recognize and attack cancer.

Bottom line: This marks a significant shift from AI just analyzing data to actively generating novel scientific ideas. This new partnership between AI and lab research could dramatically speed up the pace of discovery in medicine and beyond.

The AI Gold Rush Is Real

The Recap:  TSMC, the world's largest chipmaker, just posted a record-breaking 39% jump in quarterly profit, smashing estimates. The surge is fueled almost entirely by the insatiable global demand for advanced AI chips.

Unpacked:

  • The company’s High-Performance Computing division, which includes AI, now accounts for a staggering 57% of revenues.

  • Demand is concentrated on the most advanced technology, with cutting-edge chips (7-nanometer and smaller) making up 74% of total wafer sales.

  • Confidence in the AI boom is so high that TSMC raised its revenue forecast for 2025 to the mid-30% range, signaling sustained long-term growth.

Bottom line:  TSMC's blockbuster earnings provide concrete financial proof of the massive investment pouring into AI infrastructure. It also highlights the critical dependency the entire AI ecosystem has on a handful of highly specialized chip manufacturers.

MY FAVORITE AI TOOLS

Relevance is my favorite AI tool right now (even more so than N8N).

Here’s why:

It’s an AI agent building tool that doesn’t require you to build out the logic using nodes. Instead, you use natural language to build out these agents. But the best thing imo is that you can build AI Agent teams.

Like agents talking to each other completing a goal until its done. It’s nuts. No other tool on the market is doing this. You have to check it out.

Cloudflare Draws a Line in the Sand

The Recap: Web infrastructure giant Cloudflare is automatically updating millions of websites to give them explicit control over how AI models use their content. This new "Content Signals Policy" directly challenges Google's practice of scraping the web to power its AI Overviews.

Unpacked:

  • Publishers are backing the change after seeing referral traffic plummet, with one study showing clicks were nearly cut in half on pages with Google's AI summaries.

  • The policy adds new rules to the robots.txt file, allowing site owners to separately approve content use for traditional search, AI training, and real-time AI answers.

  • This move is framed as a license agreement to create legal risk for Google, leveraging Cloudflare's position backing nearly 20% of the web to force a change.

Bottom line: This represents a significant push to establish new norms for how AI interacts with web content. It’s a high-stakes effort to ensure the web's original creators aren't left behind as AI answer engines become more common.
