Great article. I love the 'CERN for AI' idea from Gary Marcus, and also the recent frontier standards body article from Demis Hassabis feels less like competing proposals than two halves of the same i

Hi kids, gramps here, taking over for the intern. Just released pi 0.81.0 which features first class integration with @ggerganov wonderful llama.cpp server. Professional video demo recorded in an echo

Highly performant open weights frontier models such as Kimi are a competitive threat to OpenAI & Anthropic, but probably for everyone else these are a win. Hope more US entities will release top quali

Kimi K3 is second only to Fable 5 on AA-Briefcase, our agentic knowledge work benchmark, but costs more than Opus 4.8 to run while averaging nearly an hour per task Last week @Kimi_Moonshot released K

Last Week in AI #250 is the podcast’s 250th episode, summarizing recent frontier‑AI policy developments. It reports that the U.S. government has granted Anthropic permission to release Mythos‑5 to a l

Last Week in AI #251 (July 1 2026) highlighted key industry moves: Trump lifted restrictions on Anthropic, which in turn released Claude Sonnet 5 with enhanced agentic coding, cybersecurity safeguards

lol so it’s possible that OpenAI’s guardrails prevented huggingface from being able to analyze the logs of attacks from… OpenAI’s model. so they had to switch to an open source Chinese model 😵‍💫 @Open

I've been building an AI that learns to play the classic Snake game through reinforcement learning. The goal is to reach high scores while keeping training time as low as possible. The current version
