Episode 10 - How AI Is Accelerating Scientific Discovery Today and What's Ahead
AI is beginning to change how science gets done. Head of OpenAI for Science Kevin Weil and OpenAI research scientist Alex Lupsasca talk about the early signs of acceleration researchers are seeing with GPT-5—from surfacing literature across fields and languages, to speeding up complex calculations, to designing follow-up experiments. They unpack what’s possible today, what doesn’t work yet, and why the next few years could reshape the trajectory of scientific progress across physics, math, biology and beyond.Chapters- 00:00:40 — OpenAI for Science mission- 00:06:00 — Literature search and intersections across fields- 00:11:19 — A fusion physicist shows what GPT-5 can do- 00:15:08 — GPT-5 Pro and black hole symmetries- 00:19:02 — Getting the most out of the models- 00:24:33 — OpenAI’s new research paper (https://openai.com/index/accelerating-science-gpt-5/)- 00:29:59 — Looking ahead to the next 5 years- 00:32:05 — Will predictions outpace experiments?- 00:36:43 — The pace of model improvement- 00:40:31 — What do scientific benchmarks look like?- 00:44:16 — Fusion and the promise of abundant energy- 00:48:07 — Closing: Science 2.0 moment Hosted on Acast.

Episode 6 - The future of coding with AI
What happens when AI becomes a true coding collaborator? OpenAI co-founder Greg Brockman and Codex engineering lead Thibault Sottiaux talk about the evolution of Codex—from the first glimpses of AI writing code, to today’s GPT-5 Codex agents that can work for hours on complex refactorings. They discuss building “harnesses,” the rise of agentic coding, code review breakthroughs, and how AI may transform software development in the years ahead.1:15 – The first sparks of AI coding with GPT-32:20 – Why coding became OpenAI’s deepest focus area4:00 – What a “harness” is and why it matters for agents5:30 – Lessons from GitHub Copilot and latency tradeoffs8:20 – From terminal prototypes to agentic software engineers19:30 – agents.md and the future of collaborative coding22:55 – Refactoring, code review, and breakthrough use cases29:45 – Launching GPT-5 Codex and the road to multi-agent systems35:00 – Security and the 2030 outlook43:00 – Compute scarcity46:30 – Should you still learn to code in the AI era?
