20 September
President of the European Commission since 2019; previously Germany's defence minister.
Back in New York for the @UN General Assembly. New geopolitical realities. New troubled waters. But the same urgent priorities for Europe and our partners. Peace for Ukraine. Stability in the Middle East. Climate action and a clean energy transition that powers our industries. The world is changing fast. But cooperation and multilateralism remain our best answer. Proven time and again, especially in difficult times. A busy week of hard work ahead. And I’m looking forward to it. energy Europe Related

Now we know: The popular Ox Alpha LLM was GLM-5.3-Flash... Compared to GLM-5.2, this new GLM-5.3-Flash model uses: - a Kimi Linear-style 3:1 (super*) hybrid attention pattern with 34 Kimi Delta Attention layers (KDA) and 11 Multi-heat Latent Attention (MLA) / DeepSeek Sparse Attention (DSA) layers; - a scaled-down GLM-5.2-style sparse MoE backbone, going from 744B-A40B to 320B-A18B; - a DeepSeek V4-style mHC residual path with four parallel streams; - plus a native vision encoder (not shown). * "Super hybrid" because both KDA and MLA/DSA are "efficient" components. E.g., Kimi only uses KDA +… Quoting @Zai_org Introducing GLM-5.3-Flash - Leading capabilities at a highly competitive price - Natively multimodal with a 1M-token context window - A 320B-A18B model released under the MIT License - Previously previewed as Ox Alpha, running entirely on Chinese AI chips Blog: https://t.co/tzOmB7gdZP Available now… LLMs Related

Creator of the Keras deep-learning library and the ARC-AGI benchmark.
Their words
Incredible watering down -- the Singularity is now redefined to mean "the rate of new firm creation has increased somewhat"
Vernor Vinge described the Singularity as an event horizon past which everything (e.g. what happens tomorrow) becomes entirely unimaginable and unpredictable to human understanding

Mastodon This is so good. Someone has built an old MTV player. It just streams old MTV footage and videos 24/7. I still remember loving watching MTV in hotels in Germany when I was DJing over there in the 90s/2000s as we didn't have it at home. wantmymtv.vercel.app

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
