Elon.
Transparency appreciated.
All top AI companies should do this.

Colossus 1 is 150k H100, 50k H200 and 30k GB200.
Colossus 2 is 110k GB200 and 440k GB300.
Another 220k GB300 will be fully operational next week and another 220k in November. If we get lucky, yet another 220k GB300 by late December.

An unfortunate trend: new AI models launch for agents first, while chat gets treated as an afterthought.
Grok 4.6 arrived in Grok Build and Cursor, but was missing from the Grok website and app. Now GPT-6 Sol is available in Codex and ChatGPT Work, but you still can't select it in ChatGPT Chat.
I like agents. I also want to open a chat and talk to the new model: ask questions, explore ideas, and see how it responds without giving it a task to complete. A model launch feels unfinished when you can't do that in the company's main chat product!
Terrible.
I will NEVER fly @British_Airways ever again. Absolute WORST Airline EVER.
They have left me stranded in Seattle with my elderly, injured father who is in a wheelchair and needs medical care. Our @British_Airways flight in from London was 1 hour delayed. Because my dad is in a wheelchair, he needs assistance off the plane and through the airport, this means we were last off. We then had to get our luggage, go through passport control and customs and when we finally made it to the counter to drop our bags, we were told it was too late, we missed our flight. Many other passengers also missed their flight.
But when I called British Airways to get us on the next flight out, they claimed since we had 1.5 hours to connect, they owed us nothing. 1.5 hours in a huge airport with wheelchair assistance needed and an elderly injured man who just got out of the hospital, and they are leaving us stranded telling us to fork over more money for a flight home.
Oh and this is ON TOP of us being stranded in Heathrow for 8 hours on our flight TO London. The wheelchair assist was late, it took over 1 hour for us to get off the plane. Because of this, we missed our connecting flight. The next one was 8 hours later. I asked if they could at least put us in a lounge since my father is older and in a wheelchair. They refused. They gave us no compensation or refunds.
I don't know how any of this is even legal.
Stunning question and answer. Dumfounded!
Hey @Grok, yes/no
BEFORE Michael Jackson’s first child-abuse case even came up, was the accuser’s father SECRETLY RECORDED planning with a lawyer and child psychiatrist he hired to destroy Jackson’s career AND get as much money as possible?
Were all three Jewish?
Haha! Good question.

Today we announced the Claude-led discovery of a molecular machine that we suspect could represent a new gene editing mechanism. Its precise function, biotechnological utility (if any), or level of significance is not yet clear, but at minimum it is work I would have been proud to do as a PhD student. The work was done mostly, though not entirely, by Claude: our life sciences team suggested a broad area of research, Claude read through the literature and a bunch of genome data and discovered something interesting, then Claude proposed experiments to verify the discovery and our team carried them out.
It’s easy to dismiss this as a one-off or curiosity, but we’ve repeatedly seen a pattern where AI performance in new intellectual domains goes from weak to superhuman in a matter of a few years. In 2023 models struggled to do math at the level of an average high-school student. In 2024 they started to do well on math competitions for the best high-schoolers in the country, in 2025 they started to solve minor open problems, in early 2026 more significant open problems, and in late 2026 they are beginning to solve the top few open problems in all of mathematics. We believe AI for biology is on a similar exponential trend.
The main difference between biology and mathematics, of course, is that math can be done purely theoretically, while biology requires experimentation. Some have used this to draw the conclusion that AI’s utility in biology will be limited. We think this is wrong. As we’ve demonstrated today, humans can collaborate with AI to perform the experiments, validate key results in a few weeks and, if necessary, work with the AI to iterate on what they find. Eventually it may even be possible for Claude itself to safely perform the experiments by autonomously controlling lab equipment, with appropriate safeguards in place, but we aren’t doing that today (our lab is also a BSL1/BSL2 facility that doesn't handle materials dangerous to humans).
More broadly, biomedical advancement has many stages — from fundamental biology discoveries, to translational research, to drug discovery, clinical trials, and finally the actual delivery of medicines and health care to patients. We are also interested in these later stages, but even simply accelerating the first stage of fundamental biological discoveries has the potential to speed up and broaden the entire pipeline. Improving our understanding of biology and sharpening biologists’ tools can drive forward all of the later stages, for example by identifying new drug targets, finding new therapeutic modalities, allowing for more precise measurement, and speeding up the experimental loop which itself further accelerates our understanding of biology. This will not in itself speed up clinical trial times, but if it succeeds it could greatly increase the number of promising candidates that go into the pipeline — an increase in throughput even though latency remains.
In Machines of Loving Grace, I wrote about AI’s potential to “cure most diseases in 5-10 years” — a goal that sounds impossible, but one I believe is just barely possible if AI is applied to every stage of the pipeline. The first step is showing that AI can first help with, and then drive, biological discoveries.
Claude’s discovery is the latest in a line of related prior work that goes back decades, beginning with systems like CRISPR, and continuing with discoveries like the bridge recombinase and VIPR in the past few years. Recently, there has been heightened interest in systems based on reverse transcriptase (RT) enzymes, the enzyme underlying the system Claude identified. And most recently, a Stanford team working independently described a novel RT system with an associated non-coding array that is in some ways similar to the one Claude found, though they are distinct systems that evolved independently from each other. I believe that we’re at the very beginning of finding such systems and developing them into powerful tools for biotechnology.
I’m proud of the resources Anthropic has invested in accelerating the public benefits of AI through the life sciences, and we’re aiming both to grow our life sciences team and to work with other scientists to extend this approach to a broad range of problems. If you have a proposal for a research collaboration or are interested in joining our life sciences team, please reach out.
Brilliantly done! LIKE

Hey @grok
Which country secretly planted BOMBS in US-British diplomatic facilities, intending to BLAME ARABS, deceive the West and gain Western sympathy?
Start with the country.
Terrible. Not good.
Last night, on the holiest night of the Jewish calendar, a shooting took place outside the Sons of Jacob Synagogue in Belleville.
A police officer was shot and the community has been left shaken.
Jewish people must be able to worship safely. To live free, open, proud Jewish lives. Canada’s government will do everything in our power to support law enforcement in ensuring that the perpetrator is held accountable to the fullest extent of the law.
My thoughts are with the injured officer and his family, and the entire Jewish community.

In 22 years we will see charges brought in the UK against those aiding and abetting the genocidal war in Gaza
By then everyone will ask 'how did we allow this to happen?!' nitter.cf/BBCNews/status/2102075…
Be careful what you name it. Mass AI-induced depression and psychosis may be incoming.

“Supreme Intelligence,” probably because of its relationship to the Supreme Court, is losing badly to both “Superior” and “Extreme Intelligence.” Therefore, we are going to take “Supreme Intelligence” OUT, deleting it as a qualifier, and let you vote for the Final Two: Superior Intelligence, or Extreme Intelligence. A fresh Vote begins now! President DONALD J. TRUMP
