I have the Rabbit R1, Humane AI Pin, Plaud NotePin, and Meta Ray-Bans, but the one that truly stands out is @bee__computer. Still a work in progress, it’s already useful, unobtrusive, and genuinely fun to use!

HAIL Researcher Marc shows up for the undefined problems. Next week at @icmlconf, he’ll explore them live at his talk, "Foundation Models for Automated Trading," Monday 7/14, 8 AM PDT. We'll be at booth 401 all week. Come say hi! icml.cc/virtual/2025/4… #ICML2025

Increasingly think this might be the most important chart in the world right now

Models who can’t solve, teach… well! sakana.ai/rlt/

If you use "AI agents" (LLMs that call tools) you need to be aware of the Lethal Trifecta Any time you combine access to private data with exposure to untrusted content and the ability to externally communicate an attacker can trick the system into stealing your data!

There are few places in the world where you can train deep learning models at scale. Last week at @Stanford, HRT AI Labs (HAIL) senior researcher Marc discussed training foundation models robust to market regime shifts on massive datasets and under low-latency demands.

Oops

There is a lot going on here and I love it! 😂🤣😆

What if Genesis was prompt engineering? “Let there be light” = initial prompt. Universe as diffusion-model simulation—iteratively increasing functional information, turning quantum noise into stars and us.

Here’s a reframe. AI doesn’t take your job. AI allows you to do any job. So a coder can now make films. And a filmmaker can now write code. It allows a non-specialist to get started. But a specialist will be needed for polish.

Hospitals should never be targets in war, but Putin is a war criminal who targets hospitals routinely. I visited one in Kyiv. Injured soldiers told me how they want to get back to the fight. Nurses there shared their stories of the invasion with me through tears. Stories of…

FROM MAGA TO CHINA Here are four things MAGA is getting wrong, and why it's handing over the world to China. (1) First, MAGA correctly understands that America’s economic position is in decline but thinks this is due to economic competition itself, rather than lack of…

OK. Here's the issue. There is a strong argument that Ukraine is THE climactic battle of the Thucydides Trap. That is: the big war between the US and China is actually between their proxies Ukraine and Russia. And this settlement — to this war — determines the next world…

Ok y'all aren't gonna believe this, but you can make a laser with biological cells. This is not a joke

I think if an American AI kills us all, it'll most likely be Gemini.

35.9 tok/sec on Windows 98 🤯 This is a 260K LLM with Llama-architecture. We also tried out larger models. Results in the blog post.
