Faith is not about believing unseen things... it is the discipline of seeing unbelievable things.

As I said before: The banning of Fable 5 was the biggest PR boost for open source models and companies.
GLM-5.2 is Fully Open, Frontier Intelligence Belongs to Everyone
Today, the sudden restriction of certain frontier models is deeply regrettable. At a time when access to frontier models is abruptly cut off for non-technical reasons, we are even more convinced of one thing: science should be global.
The path to AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) must never be enclosed by high walls. We have always believed that AGI should be the cornerstone for all of humanity to collaboratively explore the boundaries of intelligence and solve complex challenges, rather than a privilege monopolized by a few rules and subject to revocation at any moment. In the face of external blockades and restrictions, our attitude is one of radical openness. Frontier intelligence must remain open-source, accessible, and buildable, serving every dedicated developer.
GLM-5.2 is Zhipu's most capable open-source model to date. It not only supports a truly usable 1M context window but also maintains a continuous lead in the independent completion of long-horizon tasks, providing solid foundational support for building complex agent applications. It also continues to be our main engine for creating the strongest domestic coding model.
Tonight at 5:21—at this special moment—GLM-5.2 will officially be available to all GLM Coding Plan users (including Lite / Pro / Max). The API will also go live next week.
A step closer to frontier intelligence for everyone.
The future of AI is open, and it is for the people.

Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.

Love the article but those last couple paragraphs - hit. Really beautiful way of looking at life and our role in it.

What you soon learn with guitar, weapons, field outfitting, horseback riding, studio engineering, analytics, or travel is that - no matter your years of practice or depth of qualification - to many pundits you are still doing it wrong. They crave hovering about to instruct everyone on how to do it right.
Just walk into any craft or specialty store and begin to fiddle about. They will soon emerge.
There are so many of these experts available that you begin to wonder whether the world is simply flush with 'expertise.'
The artist, by contrast, is keenly aware that there is most often no single correct answer - and in his silence refuses to lead another where instruction is unnecessary or even stifling.
A consequence of this is that the artist in philosophy also understands that debunking and trivial critique are common stage acts, apt to deceive the magician far more than they enlighten.
A rarer talent still lies in the ability to craft novel coherence - to frame the familiar anew, to step beyond the pastiche - into a horizon of apprehension that is elegant, even beautiful, in art, in form, and in structure.
Be wary of noisy experts. They are often blind to their own weaknesses - and deaf to the strengths of authenticity.
The work must speak where the instruction can not.

Head-tracked “Window Mode.”
Your front camera finds your head. The view reprojects in real time so the screen feels like a window into the 3D scene.
True3D, no glasses.

The most important skill for a researcher is not technical ability. It's taste. The ability to identify interesting and tractable problems, and recognize important ideas when they show up.
This can't be taught directly. It's cultivated through curiosity and broad reading.

new paper from our work at Meta!
**GPT-style language models memorize 3.6 bits per param**
we compute capacity by measuring total bits memorized, using some theory from Shannon (1953)
shockingly, the memorization-datasize curves look like this:

The first wave of humanoid robots will be at least a bit disappointing because the manufacturers are (correctly) trying to ship fast and iterate. Pundits will then proclaim the sector dead because they are unimaginative and short sighted. The sector will expand rapidly anyway.
