it seems to be the bigger risk of these personal agents and payments is not them using your credit card correctly, but logging to sites that already have your card and doing things you wouldn’t want them to do like imagine one of them just left on an EC2 instance…

it seems to be that academies will always be important, if nothing else then to find the best 5 people to surround yourself with, even if conventional colleges don’t last

airports are so wonderful. i can’t believe we have planes and highly coordinated air travel

we have fallen to deep into the quicksand of code we do not understand. it is time to stop moving for a second, lean back, and float our body weight across the surface back onto higher ground (i am we)

it is insane that this is gonna come with 512gb of MEMORY in late october. that’s more than the disk storage on my current laptop… starting at the low low price of $16k for the 256gb option 😃

Been using the M5 Ultra Mac Studio for the past week and predictably it is the most powerful computer I've ever used. At this point, the improvements are not even targeted at me (a video creator) anymore. They're targeted at being the best machines for local AI work. There's nothing I can make Final Cut do with 256GB of unified memory that it couldn't do with 128GB It's been fascinating to see how even the way Apple talk about the computer over the years has changed. The name studio did a lot of lifting, and they showed off 3D, video workflows, development, etc. Now the site is FULL of local AI apps and use cases. So I'm also happy to report it's a great computer that's almost completely unnecessary for every video creator like me that's not doing 3D work. You do not need to spend the $10K+ that this Mac costs. But if you do? It absolutely rips.

i believe doing things from first principles can get you farthest, and following existing patterns can get you fastest. i’ve found it difficult but very important to balance both correctly to make good new things quickly

i think the solution to this is to just use plan mode, which i stopped using at some point for some reason i now forget

i feel like recently i’ve been diffusing into good code over many cycles rather than generating good code from the first pass. i’m now of the opinion that diffusing is not worth it, and it is easier to make sure every individual PR is good rather than the whole system at once

Through the VOICE trial, Terry is using his Neuralink implant to help fine-tune a brain-to-voice interface for himself and others who can’t speak. He trained the algorithm first by miming speech as best he could, then by simply thinking the words and hearing them come out in his own natural voice. Powered by Grok Voice from @spacexai

Introducing SWE-2, our closest model yet to the frontier. On leading evals, it scores on par with recent frontier models – at up to 70% lower cost. We scaled RL to multiple trillions of parameters, with a refined recipe that pushes the Pareto curve on both capabilities & cost.
