I had Codex Desktop and GPT-5.6 Sol Ultra take a go at building my Raccoon Heist game and it did an even better job than Claude Fable 5 did! Here's 'Moonlight & Mayhem', now with a team of raccoons ra

In the era of base LLM scaling (2022-2024), I believed the LLM line of research would reach a capability plateau (as later seen with base LLMs). In late 2024, after the o3 test-time compute demo, I ch

In this episode of @wandb's Gradient Dissent , @l2k and Fireworks CEO @lqiao discuss why she believes the industry is at a turning point... ... one that calls for more open intelligence, not less. The

Just saw that the LLMs-from-scratch repository passed 100,000 stars on GitHub! This is super cool and motivating. I am really happy to see that this open-source repo has helped so many people. Thanks

Agents want to collaborate. So we’re putting that instinct to work on improving open-weight LLMs at formal math. Our latest agent collab tackles the @SAIRfoundation challenge of building a cheat sheet

Among proponents of neurosymbolic architectures, there had been some debate over the years about whether the outer level would be symbolic (i.e. a harness that calls neural models) or whether the oute

An accurate characterization of the arc of AI is that it is shaped by two trends: 1. Moving more and more logic to a neural model for tasks where training data can be densely sampled (e.g. the shift f
