@ciboatner Who’s Urbana’s football coach?

Does anyone even know who Purdue’s football coach is?

My baby is a Luddite. She hates diapers.

Factorio has ruined TSA lines for me. I can just sense the unbalanced loads.

⚡️ Excited to share that I am starting an AI+Education company called Eureka Labs. The announcement: --- We are Eureka Labs and we are building a new kind of school that is AI native. How can we approach an ideal experience for learning something new? For example, in the case of physics one could imagine working through very high quality course materials together with Feynman, who is there to guide you every step of the way. Unfortunately, subject matter experts who are deeply passionate, great at teaching, infinitely patient and fluent in all of the world's languages are also very scarce and cannot personally tutor all 8 billion of us on demand. However, with recent progress in generative AI, this learning experience feels tractable. The teacher still designs the course materials, but they are supported, leveraged and scaled with an AI Teaching Assistant who is optimized to help guide the students through them. This Teacher + AI symbiosis could run an entire curriculum of courses on a common platform. If we are successful, it will be easy for anyone to learn anything, expanding education in both reach (a large number of people learning something) and extent (any one person learning a large amount of subjects, beyond what may be possible today unassisted). Our first product will be the world's obviously best AI course, LLM101n. This is an undergraduate-level class that guides the student through training their own AI, very similar to a smaller version of the AI Teaching Assistant itself. The course materials will be available online, but we also plan to run both digital and physical cohorts of people going through it together. Today, we are heads down building LLM101n, but we look forward to a future where AI is a key technology for increasing human potential. What would you like to learn? --- @EurekaLabsAI is the culmination of my passion in both AI and education over ~2 decades. My interest in education took me from YouTube tutorials on Rubik's cubes to starting CS231n at Stanford, to my more recent Zero-to-Hero AI series. While my work in AI took me from academic research at Stanford to real-world products at Tesla and AGI research at OpenAI. All of my work combining the two so far has only been part-time, as side quests to my "real job", so I am quite excited to dive in and build something great, professionally and full-time. It's still early days but I wanted to announce the company so that I can build publicly instead of keeping a secret that isn't. Outbound links with a bit more info in the reply!

I’m gonna give 10 random people that repost this and follow me $25,000 for fun (the $250,000 my X video made) I’ll pick the winners in 72 hours

@dakejavis Can’t believe we won the big dance

Happy for the biggest Michigan Man I know, @_JimDelaney #champ

@DevinKilbourn Winston waiting patiently for some generational wealth

Aka generational wealth

Fun fact: that viral-ish Gemini demo video is basically entirely fake

@DevinKilbourn I sense jealousy

@DevinKilbourn Sadly taking the southern pass to avoid I-80 in the winter

@_JimDelaney No audiobooks but make sure to stop in Nebraska, it’s breathtaking country

Any great audiobook recommendations for a 36 hour drive? 🤞

@Mueller_Light Interesting to think about the rate of change of our genes not keeping up. Though it does seem like we adapt quite a bit faster than our genes change.

@Mueller_Light It’s certainly economic growth and an upgrade to human capabilities. Per capita gpd is higher and we can do things we once never dreamed of thanks to e.g. the internet

Big inventions change the world in big ways. We’re still reeling from the invention of the internet, cellphones, social media. AI is poised to disrupt even more.

@Mueller_Light On the positive side, periods of high growth tend to be lead to better futures, if you can survive the growth stage😄

Humans change slowly, incrementally, and often the learning is lost after a couple generations. I don’t think rapid advancement lends itself to stability. Hopefully, we continue to seek diplomatic means to ends. But there’s a lot we’re simply not aware we’re not aware of yet.
