Microsoft has developed an AI system that outperforms human doctors in diagnosing health conditions with over 80% accuracy, led by Mustafa Suleyman. This system, powered by OpenAI's o3 model, aims to complement rather than replace doctors, focusing on cost-effectiveness and efficiency while still valuing human elements in medical practice. Microsoft envisions nearly error-free operations within 5-10 years, potentially revolutionizing global health systems. Universities are reevaluating computer science curriculums due to rapid advancements in generative AI, with prestigious institutions like Carnegie Mellon University considering significant updates. The focus is shifting from traditional coding skills to computational thinking and AI literacy, reflecting changes in the job market where demand for a blend of technical and critical thinking skills is increasing. Anysphere has launched a new web app for its AI coding editor Cursor, allowing users to manage coding agents from their browsers. This development aims to extend Cursor's capabilities, following its growth to over $500 About:
