The mathematics of AI uncertainty
The core thesis is that true intelligence requires a system to quantify its own limitations, moving beyond mere 'correctness' to explicit measures of 'confidence.'

Like Having an Intern? The Impact of LLMs on Software Engineering Careers -Tom Sellek & Netta Avnoon The talk explores how LLMs impact software expertise. While adoption is high, researchers warn that over-reliance can degrade skills, impair critical thinking, and lead to 'cognitive surrender,' posing a risk to junior engineers. Intelligence + Continual Learning = Expertise — Yu Su, NeoCognition Yu Su argues that scaling AI requires moving beyond raw intelligence. True capability comes from 'Expertise,' which is achieved through continual learning to master specialized, complex domains.
