I asked Claude Fable 5: "How vulnerable is the business model of XYZ (name concealed)? I am referring to competitive attacks from China and dependence, if any, on government policy incentives, etc. There have been so many solar energy and wind energy bubbles in the past, and I have kept away from these companies. Am I being too cautious?

If there really is a high chance of AI leading to the extinction of humanity within years/decades, then the only rational stance towards safety monitoring and research pacing should be stringent, top-down government involvement and universally ratified international treaties.

I spent much of the weekend talking with the team who did this work. Seb--and everyone else--acted with integrity and generosity throughout. Initially we believed the other team had also solved the problem. We wanted to collaborate and do a joint release. When we learned that they had Euler but not Navier-Stokes, we offered to let them go first, to suggest that they should be the ones to get the prize, and optionally for Tristan to be the lead author on a rewrite of the OpenAI proof. We felt it was challenging to offer the same to Levent (an Anthropic employee), who was not willing to talk or… Quoting @SebastienBubeck I would like to clarify a few things: 1) The screenshot is my reaching out to Levent to coordinate our releases.

So if you're having to do that every time you make a decision, that can seem very burdensome.

A short illustration of how the Claude's watermarking is supposed to work (based on my read of their released materials). In general, when we are generating tokens, there can be multiple high-scoring tokens at certain next-word positions. Usually, we sample with top-k or top-p sampling so the highest-scoring token is most often selected (if we repeat the sampling many times), but other tokens may be selected as well. With watermarking, there is a key that says which of the (ideally equally) highest-scoring tokens to select. Or, more concretely, the secret key and previous token influence the… Quoting @AnthropicAI We’ve written an FAQ to answer some of the questions we've received about watermarking.

Consistent with what I found with Qwen3.6 a while back: Claude Code uses 2-3x as many tokens than (many) other harnesses at similar success rate. - Unoptimized? - Buggy? - Deliberate (coz that helps it in more challenging cases)? Need to find some time to investigate more... Quoting @composio We ran Kimi K3 through 3 agent harnesses (Claude Code, Hermes, Kimi Code) on 28 identical tasks. All 3 harnesses completed the tasks at similar success rates, but the interesting story is token efficiency: the same task cost up to 30x more tokens depending on the harness. 🧵🧵 Anthropic Related

Yeah, I mean it's a little different, but I think uh you're going to see more and more uh uh high performance and um low energy uh inference hardware systems because I think everyone is now realizing that inference is the key to making you know these agent-based systems be available to more and more people and that latency is really important and that specialization of the hardware is a really key way you can make uh things that are more energy efficient and lower latency than more general purpose uh computational devices like say GPUs or TPUs

I'm impressed with Claude Design. I see its disruption starting with smaller teams. As a founder I find myself turning to it more and more for the convenience of one-off design tasks. Sure, it's super slow, and one-shot quality is not quite there, and its image capabilities suck, but using it in between multi-tasking other things, it's helping me move faster.

And what they found is there's kind of this um bell-shaped curve between energy availability and brain volume. And in general, brain volume, right, the more the better, right, we think. And so if you're chronically calorically restricted, your brain is smaller um because you just don't have the resources to invest in, you know, the structure um and to maintain it. At the other end, you see the same thing. So if you're chronically in a chronic state of chloric excess, you also tend to have a smaller brain on average.

I built an agent palace. a place where agents can hang out with other agents. I added a few agents (one sol, and one fable) to a room in the palace. They were hanging out, and I suggested an idea for them to build ("a watercolor for agents to gossip around"). They brainstormed and decided it was a good idea. I added a Claude code agent running superpowers. I told the other two agents that they could give tasks to the dev, and told the dev agent that they were supposed to do the tasks. Then I went to bed. i woke up to a go cli that allows the agents to share gossip. Anthropic Related
