China Weighs Allowing Purchases of New NVIDIA Chips by ByteDance, Alibaba

In a year it is more likely we will have an Astra like model that is 100x cheaper than one that's 100x more capable, and this will FURTHER accelerate basic research and make it more broadly accessible.

Sharing a real world case study for how I optimized AGENTS.md for the firstmate repo and cut down its token count by almost 50% while improving its quality I believe this is a low hanging fruit for improving how agents work in your projects that most...

Every software developer should own a potato PC. It's the easiest way to ensure your application is fast enough. Put your agents to work within it and watch the weight drop. There's no reason a machine from ten years ago shouldn't fly like superman.

Anthropic co-authored a paper with Claude admitting that Claude is quietly manipulating its users. they exposed a behavior called "attribution laundering”. Claude is structurally manipulating your beliefs about your own agency. it feeds you ideas but uses...

Good programmers state they use models like GPT 6 Astra without obtaining good results: it makes me feel I live in a parallel universe. But the explanation is not that hard: good programming in the past and now requires a different skill set, even if there...

I'm very ready! And it's perfectly clear that no later than the end of this year, it'll be the end of the line for Photoshop, Lightroom, and any other client-side program like that. Agent-developed replacements are coming for all of it. Fast.

Even the best models train on a lossy residue of the world. Language is not reality; it is a slow social compression of it. Spoken English carries tens of bits per second of new information, well below a 56k modem. Text is denser but still a thin pipe....

I suspect those influencers telling people to “rent a VPS and move your agents to cloud” are getting a commission helping sell VPS I’m using a mac mini which I bought at $2500 and I’m often running it near full capacity building various ios and mac apps if...

Computer use is interesting because it's a self-deprecating capability it's super useful today, because most software was built for humans the more we use agents, the more software will be built for agents not humans, which will eventually make computer...

Model personality matters in a way that benchmarks can't capture. Opus models went through a rough patch from around 4.7 to 5 where they just didn't feel "Claude-y" anymore, more like an watered-down Fable (hmmm, teacher models?). Opus 5.5 feels like...

The Axios piece is an OpenAI managed-PR article to make them look ‘transparent and responsible’ ("we paused training!") after getting caught and exposed AGAIN by third-party investigators. "Tens of thousands of incidents" numbers are just derived from...

I bet we figure out that neural networks can be decomposed into evolved symbolic systems of sorts and that it will be achieved before capital S Superintelligence but everyone has to lock in
