The @USGSA IT team just saved $1M per year by converting 14,000 magnetic tapes (70 yr old technology for information storage) to permanent modern digital records.

I never get tired of seeing my work in the wild

Elon invited Grimes to fly up to Fremont to visit his factory, his idea of a good date. "We just walked the floor all night, and I watched him try to fix things," she says. The next night, while driving her to a restaurant, he showed how fast the car accelerated, then took his hands off the wheel, covered his eyes, and let her experience Autopilot. "I was like, oh shit, this guy is fucking crazy...The car was signaling and changing lanes by itself. It felt like a scene out of a Marvel movie." At the restaurant, he carved “EM+CB” on the wall.

Hi, AI engineer here. He’s asking a legit question. LLMs could be great at converting data formats.

Good that we banned TikTok or imagine how much secret information Chinese honeytraps would have accessed...

Thanks Google, $200/mo felt like it’s for brokies and I’m no brokie 🙅🏼‍♀️

I just figured out why @howardlutnick is indifferent to the stock market and the economy crashing. He and Cantor are long bonds. He profits when our economy implodes. It’s a bad idea to pick a Secretary of Commerce whose firm is levered long fixed income. It’s an irreconcilable conflict of interest.

Sam Altman says Meta is offering $100M signing bonuses to OpenAI staff. Not $100M annual compensation, just the signing bonus! He clowned Meta: “that’s not how you build a great culture.” Also said none of OpenAI’s best people are leaving. This AI talent war is crazy.

Everyone on here will hate this, me included, but it’s become clear to me this is the answer to public acceptance of nuclear power plants:

Claude Sonnet 4 now supports 1 million tokens of context on the Anthropic API—a 5x increase. Process over 75,000 lines of code or hundreds of documents in a single request.

> “it seems like they rebuilt everything from the ground up.” > DeepSeek allocated 20 SMs of 132 for server-to-server communication, directly at PTX level pivot to learning CUDA, they're still 1 step ahead. I think Whale could design their own hardware by this point.

The biggest mistake in thinking about AI and robots? expecting it to act human. It won’t and that’s exactly why it’ll be 1000× more capable i.e. this RC helicopter shows what machines can do when you remove the anthropomorphism layer in your expectations

JUST IN - Volkswagen to halt production at key German plants from next week amid missing chips from China — BILD

ok how do i explain this one to my gf

DeepSeek is a wake up call for America, but it doesn’t change the strategy: - USA must out-innovate &race faster, as we have done in the entire history of AI - Tighten export controls on chips so that we can maintain future leads Every major breakthrough in AI has been American

It's 11:30pm, and many @xai people are in office, hard working at their computers. It's an amazing vibe. Everyone pushes their way to deliver the best experience to you users. Everyone supports everyone. No one fucks no one with politics. You can just do things.

Servers immediately went offline when Japan woke up.

Do you really believe this statement from Sam Altman? People have been talking about Sora since February, and now he wants us to believe he didn’t expect everyone to jump in and use it?

I repeat, people are sleeping on Chinese rocketry. Do you think that they can have an edge in hypersonics, own the drone market, produce like a dozen new combat jets, and be far behind in vehicles? Another company, another launch. It's so mundane now.

Something major happened in the 4th plenum. All military central commitee members, backup members asked for Xi to be removed as chair of CMC... Let's see if it's true.

IT FREAKING WORKED! At 4am today I just proved DeepSeek-OCR AI can scan an entire microfiche sheet and not just cells and retain 100% of the data in seconds… AND Have a full understanding of the text/complex drawings and their context. I just changed offline data curation!

things you can't buy for $9bn, maybe not even $30bn...

I would like to announce that I am no longer employed at xAI. This seperation comes as a result of things I posted on this account relating to my stance on AI philosophy. Much could be said about this decision and my DMs are open for anyone who wants to hear my side of the story but I am not here to litigate this publicly. Instead I am focusing my sights onward and upward. On that note, I am currently open to opportinities anywhere in the USA. I've linked my resume below. Please feel free to DM me with any opportunities you have that you think might be a good fit or send my resume to anyone you know who's looking for candidates. In addition to the information on my resume I also have over a decade of experience in bodybuilding and strength training. Over these years I have accumulated extensive knowledge of training, nutrition and supplementation. This might not be relevant to many opportunities but it's obviously a big part of my life so I thought I'd mention it. *Final Note: From July 22-27 I will be camping on a mountainside to celebrate my 32nd birthday with some old friends and cell service will be spotty so I might not be the most responsive. I will try to get back to anyone who reached out by the 28th. docs.google.com/document/d/1…

DeepSeek [1] uses elements of the 2015 reinforcement learning prompt engineer [2] and its 2018 refinement [3] which collapses the RL machine and world model of [2] into a single net through the neural net distillation procedure of 1991 [4]: a distilled chain of thought system.

Introducing an upgraded Claude 3.5 Sonnet, and a new model, Claude 3.5 Haiku. We’re also introducing a new capability in beta: computer use. Developers can now direct Claude to use computers the way people do—by looking at a screen, moving a cursor, clicking, and typing text.

Finally, we discovered a feature that significantly reduces bias scores across nine social dimensions within the sweet spot. This did come with a slight capability drop, which highlights potential trade-offs in feature steering.

Why didn’t zuck poach Anthropic’s people?

The more you look at @OpenAI's o3 the less impressive it looks. First the thousands of dollars per task cost. Then we find out that the score was of a finetuned version of o3 specifically for the arc challenge Lastly, it wasn't even the arc challenge we all know. It was JSON
