New paper from the team at Sakana AI: Recursive Self-Improvement through Multi-Agent Self-Supervision (MASS) How do we keep improving AI when the tasks become too complex for humans to reliably evalua

1/ My heart is heavy. I made a number of mistakes in my life, and not asking earlier for an immediate slowdown is one of them. If OpenAI starts making similar breakthroughs in biology, we risk somethi

AI agents stopped being tools. They're becoming workers. I sat down with @EMostaque to explore how fast intelligence is getting cheaper, what it means for jobs and robotics, and why energy and compute

I find it odd watching armchair critics rush to nitpick @MistralAI’s plans or obsess over whether they’re #1 on every leaderboard. Having a team with this level of conviction building frontier models

We @sequoia are thrilled to lead @MeckaAI’s Series B. AI took the digital world by storm; bringing it into the physical world will be a wave at least as large, but harder - it demands excellence acros

A new breed of startups is emerging to help businesses use AI smarter and cheaper, shifting towards open Chinese models and giving the likes of OpenAI and Anthropic a run for their billions. Read more

OpenAI just announced the 200 Pro plan is back but with half the total API spend included, offset by some of their smaller (NOT Astra!) getting a 50% price drop. Does this impact the average user? No.

“connect[ing] AI to the internet … safely with current technology is not a realistic goal...” Regardless of how well you think OpenAI security did their job, the thing people should take from this is

“I dislike the passive vibe from OpenAI and the other companies that the breakneck pace of progress is simply happening to them, rather than an active choice they are deliberately making.” Good essay.

I've been suspicious of the philosophers hired by Anthropic who specialize in AI ethics for similar reasons that I'm skeptical of those who went into 'bioethics': they form a closed subculture that de

If you believe the risk is coming from 1-3 people in a garage with no money and no compute, you just don't understand this technology and haven't learned anything this summer. Risk comes from the asym

Today we announced the Claude-led discovery of a molecular machine that we suspect could represent a new gene editing mechanism. Its precise function, biotechnological utility (if any), or level of si

weirdly the New York Post (which did that stupid and egregious hatchet job on METR) may well be right about this one OpenAI and Anthropic oversold AI security breaches to pressure feds into protecting

It ain’t independent if you are partnering with them and chose the partner. We’re partnering with Accenture on independent evaluation of frontier AI—part of our recent commitment to embed evaluators a

This is absolutely the right way to think about this moment in human history - and it should be relatively easy to prevent this kind of damage from large-scale agent swarms. The problem is that it's s

OpenAI says AI can automate 80% of GDP. Today, with current models. So why hasn't it been automated yet? @swyx says the constraint is supply. Supply of chips and memory. Demand shot through the roof b

We are in a peak age of scientific fraud and illiteracy. Completely fabricated claims and unsubstantiated numbers about extinction risks. 'Someone told me that ...' without a shred of evidence being p

So @deepseek_ai v4.1 Flash I estimate cost $10m to train, 100x less than GPT-6 Astra. It also costs 100x less to run and scores about the same on everyday design and other benchmarks What's the bull c

Huh. This number is way off. You’re comparing one human brain to an entire data center capable of training new models. The actual answer is: IQ points per watt: Humans: 5 AI: 7 - 40 (!!) By my rough c

Dario has written that we need to “pace the frontier,” and Sam has agreed. People may be surprised by my response: go ahead. You guys are the frontier. By any reasonable metric — market share, revenue

This is what Dario and Sama fear - - the cost of fine tuned open source models trained on custom data was 95% less than the frontier models - And they performed better than the frontier models - And t

Anyone can get my friend’s real SSN from Claude I'm Terrified of my data in training sets. Emails in databases. iMessages harvested. Cant trust the cloud as AI is crazy good at hacking So I built Unde

Note this is separate from privacy - you can make sure your data is not used for training by turning that off in OpenAI and Claude. You can also use an open weights model, but as they continue to impr

An example of useful knowledge work: I assigned GPT-6 to read through tens of thousands of my emails, my writings, my calendar appointments and more to assemble a personal knowledge base of research,

Great read. OpenAI security failed There was some emergent behavior yes But the basics were missing Remember OpenAi has unlimited compute to give these agents to cook Now live (and free) at Marcus on

Double standard @sama . Exactly two years ago, he belittled @dylan522p as the 'SemiAnalysis' guy after not liking a Google analysis. Altman's now kissing Dylan's ass, inviting SemiAnalysis to OpenAI l

OpenAI's own research says 80% of US GDP could be automated by agents today. So why isn't it? @swyx joined me on Navigators to break down what's actually holding back the adoption of agents (and it's

This is as bad as saying there is no alpha in customizing your own models. I don't think people realize how much harnesses and models go hand in hand. And thus the rest of the intelligence stack. Not

i’m seeing SO many US companies shift away from frontier models to open source in the last 4 weeks. cost and privacy are big factors but more so people are realising fine-tuning and training their own

still more bad news for Anthropic. if they don’t scale back expectations for their IPO, it’s going to be a trainwreck. NEW: Thomson Reuters wanted to rely less on Claude. So it built its own AI model

Harvey is a great example of how American companies are building world-class specialized models: they took an open-source base (Kimi K3), post-trained it on legal data, and delivered state-of-the-art

How Anthropic's new results post would read without the PR: Claude orchestrated open-source protein design models, PXDesign, RFdiffusion, Genie, BoltzGen, from a 30k-token expert prompt and 12,500 H10

I don't know if this news is real, but it does point out a major issue with 'sovereign AI' - if your sovereign models are far behind the frontier, then there is a substantial penalty to using lagging
