In 2016 Geoffrey Hinton said “we should stop training radiologists now" since AI would soon be better at their jobs. He was right: models have outperformed radiologists on benchmarks for ~a decade. Yet radiology jobs are at record highs, with an average salary of $520k. Why?

LLMs are bad at knowing what’s important. That’s why it matters whether you give it info in bulk (better) than step by step: the LLM may confuse „wrong“ context it creates while answering with „true“ context you only know. Enter context engineering. www.dbreunig.com/2025/06/22/h...

How this Microsoft-backed billion-dollar London startup made 700 engineers sitting in India pose as AI
TIMESOFINDIA.COMLondon-based Builder.ai, once valued at $1.5 billion and backed by Microsoft and Qatar's sovereign wealth fund, has filed for bankruptcy after reports that its "AI-powered" app development platform was actually operated by Indian engineers, said to be around 700 of them, pretending to be artificial intelligence.The company now owes $85 million to Amazon and $30 million to Microsoft in cloud computing fees, while approximately 1,000 employees have lost their jobs.
The failure highlights growing concerns about "AI washing," companies rebranding conventional technology services as artificial intelligence to attract investment in the current AI boom.
