this thing was widely reported as “the end of programming” in 1981 https://t.co/j0cok5NZKf right before that, in 1960s, people thought COBOL would allow everyone to build whatever software they wanted and there’s no need for programmers now the same people in the same bubble think agents will finally end it, because they spent a weekend and got impressed by how quickly the agent could produce a toy. now they think that’s how everyone wants to spend their weekends open your eyes - most regular humans don’t even want to talk to an agent Related

AI research engineer working on large language models. He writes the Ahead of AI newsletter and is the author of Build a Large Language Model (From Scratch).
Since I had to discuss the "pacing" with a lot of people this weekend, here are my two cents: I don't think pacing literally means that these companies will be "slowing down" training and development in any way. "Pacing" here means adding a framework for more checks. We have seen some of that "pacing" already in recent months, when Mythos wasn't released as-is but instead a delayed, nerfed Fable variant was released. Or when Astra wasn't released right away / there is an existing Astra model that hasn't been released yet. These Mythos/Fable and Astra pacing decisions were ad hoc. If you are a… Related

Co-founder and CEO of OpenAI; previously president of Y Combinator.
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. I hope it’s clear from the message that we came in with the best possible intentions. 2) I never ever asked for Levent to be removed from authorship of his own work (as indicated by my t… Anthropic OpenAI Related

During the weekend I built a contextual search tool for a photo library with 42k images across 2.8k galleries. The results are amazing! Turns out the AI models that generate embedding vectors from images directly are BAD at capturing the image contents, so I had to first generate captions and then generate the embeddings for the captions instead. Total cost: $30 for both captions (gpt-5-mini) and embeddings (text-embedding-3-large with 3072 dimensions). OpenAI Related

Quoting @dollarsanddata In 1983, the bottom 20% of workers were more likely to put in long hours than the top 20%. By 2002, the top 20% were twice as likely to work long hours as the bottom 20%.

Man. What a week! Started on a high on the weekend with doing good progress on a secret project and on Monday at work as well. Tuesday, still good progress but also had a quick shocker as a friend didn't answer their phone for 3 hours and we thought something happened to them. And today started with getting the notice that a friend from the local gym died after their cancer returned. 😭 And the whole world politics definitely starts to pull me down more and more.

What is a korrent?
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.
Got it
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.
