PSA: Sonnet 5.5 is insanely cheap on Copilot Cowork (~$0 for a workflow that would typically cost $3-4 on Sonnet 5). Either this is a rounding error on Microsoft's side, or Copilot Cowork might just be ready to scale for routine workflows.

When physicians start relying on AI-drafted content, how does a health system monitor that human-in-the-loop AI and fix what's broken? Our new @ai.nejm.org study from our team at @jchi-ucsd.bsky.social led by Dr. Lily Poursoltan found hundreds of physicians-hours spent editing AI content.

In Nolan’s The Odyssey, the sea does not forgive. Matt Damon’s Odysseus emerges not as marble hero but as a storm-worn man lashed to his own legend, eyes hollowed by ten years of war and twenty of regret.
