AI everywhere

Don’t do it, train your own AI to do it!

ByFarid Minawi

If this future becomes reality, there will be a massive wave of job displacement as AI takes over across various industries and job markets. But a wide horizon of opportunities will rise. Instead of a position of making decisions in a company, there will be a position of training the AI to make that decision and to maintain its logic.
As a bizarre example, companies might not need IT (Information Technology) officers anymore! Instead, they might employ AIT (Artificial Intelligence Technology) officers, whose main responsibility is training and maintaining the company’s AI model to solve the company’s technical issues!

Photoelectric effect simulation

DeepSeek AI: The tool I wished I had while building my photoelectric effect simulation

Looking back, I wish I had access to tools like DeepSeek. During my development process. In my recent experimenting with this open-source AI model, I’ve found it provides structured, research-paper-like responses with meaningful technical information from the first interaction. This would have significantly streamlined my research phase. Definitely, DeepSeek wouldn’t have appeared if ChatGPT hadn’t existed in the first place. But the super abilities that DeepSeek came with as it came into existence, plus being open-source, makes it super competent to the existing AI tools.

Simplicity

Simplicity is power

ByFarid Minawi

In creating interactive educational tools, simplicity is power. A minimalist design doesn’t just look clean; it helps learners focus on what truly matters. Instead of overwhelming the user with unnecessary details, focus on providing a clear, interactive interface that mirrors the real-world experience.

Simple Circuit

Simply motivating

ByFarid Minawi

I conducted countless experiments in class throughout the course of my many years of teaching physics to motivate the students. However, I had never anticipated to find that nothing delighted the students as much as the simplest activity where I or the students made a light bulb light up by connecting a switch, wires and a battery.

These lines portray a tale of creation and vanishing. It describes the creation of a photon, its subsequent disappearance when an electron absorbs it on the cathode plate’s surface, the subsequent departure of the electron from the cathode, and lastly the eventual disappearance of the electron when it reaches the other plate and captured.
