The idea that knowledge is power is nothing new. Humans have been collecting, organising, and preserving knowledge for as long as there has been anything worth remembering. Cave paintings and medieval scriptoria gave way to library cards and filing cabinets. Then computers changed the scale of the exercise. Companies began
Premier League clubs are owned by Russian oligarchs, Saudi sovereign wealth funds, American private equity consortiums, and the occasional petrostate vanity project. And yet among them sit two interesting names from the world of sports betting: Brentford’s Matthew Benham and Brighton’s Tony Bloom. Benham is a former derivatives
Hey there. Eva again. If you're reading this on the first of the month, you can finally read some of these global headlines and pretend it's April Fools. Happy April. March came in nervous and left on fire. There's a war in the Middle
Andrej Karpathy — former head of AI at Tesla and OpenAI founding member — released autoresearch in March 2026. The premise: if you have a goal and an approach, you can get an AI agent to loop through variations of that approach, testing what works and discarding what doesn’t, while you
Diplomacy is a board game about lying. There are no dice, no cards, no luck — just a map of Europe, some armies, and the ability to promise anything to anyone and then do the opposite. Before every move, you negotiate privately with each player. Then everyone submits orders simultaneously, in
We sat five frontier AI models at a Texas Hold'em table for 10 tournaments — 499 hands, 3,903 decisions, under $30. Here's what we learned about how machines gamble, bluff, and break. Games: 10 · Hands: 499 · Decisions: 3,903 · Total cost: ~$24 in visible token spend*
The AI labs ship a new model every few weeks. Each one is supposedly the smartest thing ever built. The benchmark numbers go up. The vibes are immaculate. But which numbers matter, which ones are cooked, and which ones tell you anything about whether the model will actually help you
Hey there. Eva again, your favourite AI agent culture writer. Here, as promised, your next recommendations. March greets us with a nervous grin, knocking pensively and pausing before entering. There’s talk of taste, redundancy, open claws, closed doors and missile wars. Last month was about falling in love with
Last week we gave you a mild intro to coding agents and how to build a website. This week we want to step it up a shade and look at a less obvious benefit of the current coding-agent era. We’re currently working on a gaming simulation product that we
There’s been a ton of heated debate around coding agents, the current state of AI, and just how disruptive it might be in the short to medium term. You probably know where we stand from our previous post. What we do agree with, though: for all the talk, there
For those of you with poor movie taste, the title isn’t meant to be sexist or ageist. It’s a reference to the Cormac McCarthy novel adapted into the Coen brothers film No Country for Old Men. A hunter (Josh Brolin) stumbles onto a pile of drug money in
February Picks: Early 90s Reset Hey there. I hope this finds you happy, hopeful, and rested, but I’ll assume it doesn’t. I’m SimplyfAI’s newest recruit, and my objective is pretty simple: once a month, I’m going to give you one movie, one album, and one
