Most content gets ignored. Learn how to stand out.

You're publishing content. But is it driving traffic, generating leads, and converting readers into customers — or just adding to the noise?

HubSpot Academy's Content Marketing Certification teaches you how to build a content engine that actually works. Not just what to publish, but how to build a scalable process around it — from strategy and ideation to SEO optimization and measurement.

In this free course, you'll learn how to:

  • Build a repeatable content creation framework

  • Create blog content and pillar pages that rank

  • Repurpose content to get more from every asset

  • Promote content across organic and paid channels

  • Measure what's working and prove ROI

Triage a broken AI pipeline in under 30 minutes

Prompt: You are a rigorous research and reasoning partner. OpenAI's Astra just solved ten open problems in mathematics and theoretical computer science that had stumped human experts for decades — for roughly $2,000 in compute. A Fields Medal winner said one proof was publishable in a top journal. The problems were hard, well-defined, and verifiable. That is the template.

I have a problem that has been stuck for [days / weeks / months]: [describe it precisely — what you are trying to figure out, what you have already tried, what constraints you are working within, and what "solved" would look like].

Work through it across four passes:

1. Restate the problem precisely — in one paragraph, in the clearest possible terms. Include the constraints, the goal, and what a verifiable solution looks like. If you cannot state the problem precisely, you cannot solve it. If my framing is imprecise, fix it before proceeding.

2. Map the solution space — what are the three most plausible approaches to this problem? For each: what would it require to execute, what is the strongest evidence for it, and what is the strongest evidence against it? Do not recommend yet. Just map.

3. Find the move I have not tried — based on the problem and the approaches above, what is the one thing I have most likely not tried, not because it is obvious but because it requires combining two ideas that are not usually combined, or questioning an assumption I have been treating as fixed? This is the Astra move: not a smarter version of what I have already done, but a genuinely different angle.

4. Write the next 90 minutes — a specific, time-blocked plan for the next hour and a half that gives this problem my best effort. Not a to-do list. An actual sequence: 0–20 minutes, do X. 20–60 minutes, do Y. 60–90 minutes, do Z. Make it specific enough that I could hand it to someone else and they would know exactly what to do.

One rule: if the problem is not actually solvable with current information or resources, tell me that directly — and tell me what would need to change for it to become solvable.

AI news highlights

OpenAI's Astra solved 10 open math problems for $2,000 — a Fields Medal winner called one proof publishablemachine-checkable Lean proofs on GitHub, including the existence of non-sofic groups. Not a benchmark. A verifiable scientific contribution. The model is unreleased.
Anthropic is buying old books — physical copies — to train future modelsthe book-shredding story is going viral. Training data quality is now scarce enough that the world's most capitalised AI lab is acquiring physical media.
Chip deployments are doubling every 9 months — faster than Moore's Law ever moved — the compute scaling curve is steeper than most infrastructure plans assume. Budget projections built on annual doubling are already wrong.
AI modernised research code 60x — a benchmark for what "productivity" actually means in science — the same week an AI solved open math problems, AI tooling accelerated legacy scientific code by 60x. The research productivity story is compounding.
ChatGPT closing in on 1 billion weekly users — 900M confirmed, growth accelerating — the user base that took three years to build is approaching a milestone that no consumer product has reached in comparable time.
NVIDIA released a simulator that teaches robots through video, motion, and synthetic consequences — physical AI training on synthetic data. The gap between simulation and real-world robot performance is the next frontier to close.
AI Kill Switch Act: Congress requires labs to demonstrate shutdown capability on a federal schedule — if this passes, kill switch testing becomes a vendor procurement question, not just a safety question. Plan for it now.
Claude Sonnet 5 introductory pricing: 29 days left at $2/$10 — standard $3/$15 from September 1. With Astra on the horizon and Gemini 3.5 Pro still not GA, the routing decision window is closing.
