The Cybernetic Artificial Intelligence (CAI): A new scientific field for modelling and controlling Complex Dynamical Systems

Conference paper from IFAC TECIS 2024 proposing 'Cybernetic Artificial Intelligence' — the argument that AI lost something real when it dropped cybernetics, especially the difference between correlation and causation. The full text and PDF are free on ScienceDirect.

Why I recommend it: Free to read and download in full. It is a position paper from a conference, not a tested result, and its language is sweeping in places ('the only hope for the survival of the planet'). The useful part is the correlation-versus-causation section.

OpenAI Realtime Voice Prompting Guide

Official OpenAI guide for designing prompts for Realtime voice models, including gpt-realtime-2 and gpt-realtime-1.5. Covers role definition, guardrails, tool delegation and iterative testing.

Why I recommend it: Start here if you are building voice agents or want cleaner spoken-AI interactions. The guide recommends starting minimal and adding rules only for behaviors that fail in testing.

Microsoft AI Humanist Code of Conduct

Draft code of conduct for MAI models, outlining intended behaviors, values, limits and accountability principles. Open for public consultation as Microsoft AI develops its Humanist AI approach.

Why I recommend it: Read this if you want to understand how a major AI lab is framing responsible model behavior, and to form your own view before the consultation closes.

Claude Code vs Codex vs Google Antigravity: Rebuilding the Same Website

XDA Developers had Claude Code (Opus 5), Codex (GPT-5.6) and Google Antigravity (Gemini 3.8) rebuild the same website from the same brief. The comparison shows which agent handles detail, polish and real-world edge cases best.

Why I recommend it: Useful if you are choosing an AI coding assistant for side projects or learning to prompt more effectively. The winner is not necessarily the one you would expect.

A Sociology of Artificial Intelligence: Inequalities, Power, and Data Justice

Introduction by Kelly Joyce and Taylor M. Cruz to a Socius special collection framing AI as a sociotechnical system, with research on AI in health, work and labor, methods, and policy.

Why I recommend it: A clear entry point if you want the research vocabulary for what you already sense about AI at work.

How New York City Became an AI Industry Hot Spot

Local reporting on the growth of New York's artificial intelligence sector — which companies are hiring, where the funding comes from, and which neighborhoods anchor it.

Why I recommend it: Regional reporting names employers you will not find on a job board. Turn the company names into a target list.

Free, no-math introduction to artificial intelligence from the University of Helsinki.

Why I recommend it: The clearest starting point if AI still feels abstract. You will be able to talk about it accurately in an interview.
