'If everyone can build, it's your unique expertise, judgement, distribution, and more that people will pay for.' Here’s my new episode with @amoljain_, @Replit's head of product engineering, about wha

Interesting paper on prompt optimization. They claim that a single-lineage prompt optimizer just matched GEPA on a smaller rollout budget. Prompt optimization has been drifting toward heavier machiner

Interesting technical work from Microsoft. Provides a better understanding on SFT and how to leverage it better for RL. Microsoft researchers asked whether a standard SFT pipeline actually produces th

It’s a weekend @dwarkesh_sp, please let us humans enjoy the sunshine without having to rebut cringe anthropomorphizing ? 🙏 Over the course of 3 months at OpenAI, 3 consecutive secret AI civilizations

I've been genuinely shocked at the complacency here. There's no evidence anyone is really *doing* anything! Like, that was swell of OpenAI, whose models committed a federal crime, to let some independ

LLMs will always be bulls in a China shop. Nailed it, December 2022. We are still suffering the consequences. And they are about to get so much worse. No wonder Silicon Valley tried for so long to dep

We will not get through this era of history well if we lose ourselves in anthropomorphism. @anilkseth dissects @dwarkesh_sp’s misleadingly anthropomorphic summary of the HF incident: @dwarkesh_sp's su

“What Ilya saw” is what Dario saw which is that Sam can’t be trusted. Which is why they left. A lot of other people have discovered the same, since. If OpenAI is going to IPO or OpenAI has AGI Then Wh

You can actually create an agent in Grok Bot that exclusively uses Grok Build in CLI with the latest Grok models at the highest thinking level. You can copy mine - his name is Researchy. He's awesome.

Consensus estimate is that ~15GW of AI compute produced in 2027 cannot be turned on in 2027. This is harder than just finding power, as you also need to build out all the transformers, wiring, liquid-

Finally, a paper testing whether hiding your agent skill files actually protects them. The short answer is no. That's concerning. Worth reading if you sell access to a skill or share one across teams.

GLM 5.3 and GLM 5.3 Flash (previously Ox Alpha) are fully rolled out on Ollama's cloud. Private. Fast. US and Europe hosted. Zero data retention. GLM 5.3: ollama launch claude --model glm-5.3:cloud GL

GLM-5.3-Flash is live on Fireworks on day… 2 Why? Because we take quality very seriously. We found a benchmark discrepancy we couldn’t explain, so we delayed the launch to investigate. Day 0 (Wed): we

Long-time admirer of the Cursor team, few have done more to bring AI coding to the world. Excited to continue to partner with them. Cursor has been a trusted partner of Anthropic since Sonnet 3.5. We’

One time, a young ML researcher asked Master Ilya: 'Teacher, according to the formulas, if I use the same seed and same prompt with the same weights, I will get the same results. Is my math right?' Ma
