1. When AI Opens Its Eyes: Google’s AMIE Scores Top Marks in Image‑Driven Diagnosis

We put spotlight on Google's latest advancement in medical artificial intelligence: the Articulate Medical Intelligence Explorer (AMIE).

This cutting-edge AI system can analyze both clinical images—like smartphone photos of rashes or ECG printouts—and textual data to assist in medical diagnoses. In a simulated exam involving 105 cases, AMIE outperformed human primary-care doctors in diagnostic accuracy, image interpretation, and even patient-rated empathy.

This article discusses the technology behind AMIE, its potential applications in healthcare, and the upcoming real-world studies to further validate its effectiveness

2. IBM CEO urges the Trump administration to increase — not cut — federal AI R&D funding

Slashing AI Funding Could Undermine U.S. Tech Leadership

IBM CEO Arvind Krishna strong advocacy for bolstering federal investment in artificial intelligence research and development. Krishna expresses concern over the Trump administration's proposed budget cuts, which threaten to slash over half of the National Science Foundation's funding, potentially impacting AI R&D projects across various federal agencies. He emphasizes that such reductions could hinder America's global leadership in AI and innovation.

Krishna also notes that IBM has already been affected by these cutbacks, with 15 federal contracts canceled, amounting to $100 million in future payments. Despite these challenges, he remains optimistic that federal R&D funding for AI, quantum computing, and semiconductors will improve within a year.​

AI Tool of the Week
Cluely AI — Real‑Time Sales Copilot 📞🤖

Close deals with confidence thanks to an on‑call assistant that listens, coaches, and drafts follow‑ups while the call is still live.

🔍 What Is Cluely AI?

Cluely AI is a browser‑based, real‑time sales assistant that joins your Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams calls. While you talk, it transcribes the conversation, flags objections, compares competitors, and pops up just‑in‑time rebuttals or pitch nudges pulled from your own battlecards and PDFs. Post‑call, it drafts a personalised email recap that’s ready to send.

🌟 Key Features

💰 Pricing (USD)

✅ Why It Stands Out

● Just‑in‑Time Coaching: Reps get the exact rebuttal or value prop while the prospect is voicing the objection—no post‑mortem required.

● Content in Context: Semantic search pulls only the slide (or paragraph) that answers the question at hand, so reps stop rummaging through tabs.

● Manager Oversight without Micromanage: Shadow Mode lets leaders whisper‑coach in real time, accelerating ramp‑up for new hires.

⚠️ What to Watch Out For

● Noise Sensitivity: Background chatter can confuse the transcription; reps should use quality headsets.

● Data Hygiene: Garbage‑in, garbage‑out—upload dated battlecards and you’ll surface stale info.

● Privacy Hurdles: Some prospects may balk at AI listeners; disclose usage and secure consent up front.

👥 Who’s Using Cluely AI?

● B2B SaaS teams combating feature‑rich objections with instant competitive intel.

● SDR squads needing on‑the‑spot coaching to improve demo‑to‑SQL conversions.

● Enterprise sales managers looking to replicate playbook adherence across dozens of reps.

🏷️ Pro Tip

Tag your top three objection types in Cluely’s content hub and attach a story‑based counterexample for each. Reps will see a quick anecdote instead of a stiff bullet list—far more persuasive.

💬 What Users Are Saying

“Our ramp time for new reps dropped from 6 weeks to 3 because Cluely feeds them the right line at the right moment.” – Dana S., Head of Sales Enablement

🎯 Overall Rating: 4.5 / 5

Cluely nails the sweet spot between AI coaching and human conversation. Minor transcription hiccups and consent logistics keep it shy of perfect, but its impact on win rates makes the ROI crystal clear.

🚀 Final Verdict

If objection handling or demo consistency is costing you deals, Cluely is a no‑brainer add to your sales stack. Trial it on your next discovery call; odds are you’ll send that AI‑drafted follow‑up with a grin.

AI Tip of the Week
The “Lazy Essay” Trick 🦥✍️

Get AI to shoulder 90 % of the writing load with one four‑part scaffold.

🚀 Why It Matters

🧰 The Four‑Part Prompt Scaffold

“Assignment: <one‑sentence brief>

Quotes: <key references or citations>

Notes: <bullet‑point thoughts or arguments>

Additional Instructions: <structure, tone, POV, length>”

(Swap in your content. Keep each section on a new line for clarity.)

📝 Example in Action

Generic Prompt (meh)

“Tell me how automation affects jobs.”

Lazy Essay Prompt (chef’s kiss)

“Assignment: Write a 700‑word analysis of how automation is changing the job market.

Quotes: “AI doesn’t take jobs; it automates tasks.” – Economist. “Robots are as inevitable as electricity.” – Futurist.

Notes:

– Impact is uneven across sectors.

– High‑skill roles see productivity gains; routine roles face displacement.

– Policy response is lagging.

– Include recent warehouse robotics stat (35 % uptake since 2020).

Additional Instructions:

– Use three industry examples (manufacturing, healthcare, logistics).

– Balance pros & cons; neutral tone.

– APA citations; third‑person voice.”

Result The model drafts a balanced, sourced essay with sector spotlights and APA‑style references—90 % done before you touch the keyboard.

💡 Pro Tips

1. Chunk Long Briefs → If the task is huge (e.g., white paper), run multiple “Lazy Essay” prompts for each section, then stitch.

2. Feed It Your Slides → Paste bullets straight from your deck into Notes to keep messaging on‑brand.

3. Iterate Quickly → Follow up with “Now tighten to 400 words and add a policy recommendation paragraph.”

4. Reuse the Skeleton → Save the scaffold as a text snippet; swap the variables each time you write.

🔑 Final Takeaway

Treat AI like a junior writer: it excels when you brief it clearly. The four‑part “Lazy Essay” scaffold hands over the roadmap, references, and guardrails—so the model races to a near‑final draft while you sip the coffee.
