Apple has published a paper with a devastating title: “The Illusion of Thinking” It argues that AI models, no matter how brilliant they may seem, do not understand what they are doing. They do not solve problems. They do not reason. They merely generate text word by word, trying to sound coherent. Apple tested the most advanced reasoning models in the world on controlled puzzle environments. They tore open the internal "thinking" traces. What they found shatters the narrative that we are getting closer to AGI. Current models don't scale with complexity. They have a hard mathematical cliff. And they do not degrade gracefully. They collapse. But here is the most unsettling part. When a problem gets too complex, the AI doesn't use its remaining compute to try harder. It just gives up. Its reasoning effort actually declines. It stops thinking and starts guessing. Then Apple ran the experiment that closes the casket on the reasoning debate. They gave the AI the exact, step-by-step algorithm to solve the puzzle. The cheat codes. All the AI had to do was follow the instructions. It couldn't do it. Performance didn't improve at all. When the complexity gets high enough, these models fail because they cannot actually execute a logical sequence. They are not reasoning. They are just pattern matching. When you give them a simple problem, they overthink. When you give them a hard problem, they collapse. Paper: The Illusion of Thinking, Apple, 2025

Meta and Google want to free you from screens — by putting one in front of your eyes at all times. This week @hypervisible joins @parismarx to discuss the anti-social world they’re trying to create through mass adoption of smart glasses. Full ep: techwontsave.us/episode/298_sm…

@JOAOVICTORLB @douglasmct @linck_alexandre E bota MUITO nisso.

@mma_squared @ufc Nah, the Smith is Ferreira (literally as well), which was also the last name of another Brazilian fighter of the card.

@RockyRe05937935 @ufc @guram_dze @espn Google “Amazon Jungle” and check who were the original people there. So, Basically, some people there have been wearing “feathers” more than 3000 years before Portugal even arrived there and colonised those lands now known as Brazil…

They are all winners. 🤡 🏆

@MMAmelotto Sim, aproveita e façam também: ⭐️ Anderson Silva x Belfort ⭐️ Ricardo Arona x Sakuraba ⭐️ Giant Silva x Zuluzinho ⭐️ Frank Mir x Minotauro 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

@schweighofer_ @YuriMarcal Bem provável. Quase todos jogadores da seleção são…

@OKamikaze66 @leiatheinvestor Eu tô lascado. Como bom Brasileiro, adoro um banho quente longo. 😂 se for pra economizar, banho de banheira sai mais em conta e acho até melhor.

@OKamikaze66 @leiatheinvestor O preço vai subir bastante, como já vem subindo, mas nas casas a ducha quente vai continuar. Apenas será sem exageros, pra não ter conta muito alta. Esse papo de que não vai ter aquecimento no inverno nas casas e só banho frio é histeria da mídia.

@OKamikaze66 @leiatheinvestor Sem problemas! Vi aqui que algumas cidades já anunciaram medidas. Hannover já cortou as duchas quentes em prédios de repartições públicas e centros comunitários de esporte e lazer. Aí eu concordo… muita gente vai pra piscina pública pra tomar ducha de 1 hora. 😂

@OKamikaze66 @leiatheinvestor Moro na Alemanha, no norte, e não recebi essa recomendação. Pode passar link de onde viu isso? Não encontrei no DW em inglês ou alemão. Curioso, pois por aqui segue tudo normal ainda…

@Apple …because I am a Mac user for decades and this never happened before. Until they fix it, I must switch to Desktop. Pity. And guys, grow up: you don’t need to defend a multi-billionaire company like I was offending your mom. The screen has design issues that even Apple admitted.

@Apple Don’t waste your money on that. The screen is to fragile and breaks with normal opening/closing lid movement, exactly as on the M1 predecessor.

@Apple There are many more… Including a thread on Apple forum with more than 50 pages of users all around the world complaining about that… and Apple, although no recall was made, admits to the issue by stating they are changing the screen for the upcoming version. Hope they do…

@Apple appletoolbox.com/did-your-m1-ma… appleinsider.com/articles/21/09…

@Apple And maybe that’s why Apple is facing a lawsuit in the US regarding this issue: tomshardware.com/news/apple-m1-…

@Apple Yeah, maybe I’m making that up and wrote all those articles: makeuseof.com/m1-macbook-scr… 9to5mac.com/2021/07/30/m1-…

@PauloDelMenezzi @MMAmelotto E do Fedor!?
