    992: Tokenmaxxing vs AI Hardware Bottlenecks
    May 15 2026
    While “tokenmaxxing”, the social media trend of maximizing AI token consumption as a vanity metric, takes off online, the physical infrastructure behind AI is slamming into serious bottlenecks. In this Five-Minute Friday, Jon Krohn maps out the four overlapping supply-chain constraints choking AI compute: GPUs (with NVIDIA Blackwell sold out through mid-2026), high-bandwidth memory (quintupled demand since 2023, only three manufacturers worldwide), CPUs (agentic AI requires 12x more CPUs per GPU than chatbots), and electricity (Gartner projects power shortages will restrict 40% of AI data centres by 2027). Find out why the five biggest hyperscalers are on track to spend $725 billion on AI infrastructure in 2026, where the reasons for optimism lie, and why Jon says you should definitely not tokenmaxx.

  • 991: Pair Programming with AI in Your Python Notebook, with Dr. Trevor Manz

    991: Pair Programming with AI in Your Python Notebook, with Dr. Trevor Manz
    May 12 2026
    Dr. Trevor Manz of Marimo talks to Jon Krohn about Marimo Pair, an open-source agent skill that teaches coding agents like Claude Code how to drive a reactive Python notebook, reading cell state, running Python in the kernel, taking screenshots of cells, and iterating on data tasks the way agents iterate on traditional software. Trevor also unpacks recursive language models, his AnyWidget project that bridges Python and the web, and his journey from a Wisconsin small town and Harvard bioinformatics research to founding-engineer life at Marimo. Listen to the episode to hear why no matter where AI takes us, curiosity and going deep on a topic will always be valuable.

    990: Inside Mythos: Anthropic's Locked-Down Frontier Model
    May 8 2026
    Anthropic has built a frontier AI model so capable at finding software vulnerabilities that it has decided not to release it to the general public. In this Five-Minute Friday, Jon Krohn breaks down Claude Mythos Preview, a general-purpose model whose hacking abilities emerged as a side effect of broad improvements in code understanding and reasoning. Find out how Mythos achieved a nearly 100x improvement over Opus 4.6 on Firefox exploit generation, why Mozilla patched 271 vulnerabilities in a single release using an early version of the model, and what Project Glasswing Anthropic’s gated industry consortium means for the future of cybersecurity. Jon also shares practical tips for securing the code you’re generating with AI tools.
