Uh @TrueNAS is this true? linuxiac.com/truenas-moves-…

@sarobertsonca also gallium and germanium . gal ee uhm, ger may knee uhm. Maybe he is not of the sciences.

the only moment worth highlighting from Pierre's low-energy speech in Berlin today was his pronunciation of "infrared"

@jeremyphoward @QuixiAI i had some of the first models especially the vl model which worked pretty amazing, even when doing demos on forest fire detection, basically above and beyond into magic territorry. Been following them since and sad to see it starting to collapse. I hope the best for the og's.

WTF is going on at Qwen?!? Some kind of implosion? This is really sad and worrying. They've been *such* a strong team, and are losing some of their very best researchers.

@QuixiAI @Alibaba_Qwen og wants a better world, corp wants a profitable world.

@Alibaba_Qwen how did you lose all your superstars at once? 😲🤯

@rohanpaul_ai This is embarassing.

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei on Open-Source AI Models. "I don't think open source works the same way in AI that it has worked in other areas. Primarily because with open source you can see the source code of the model. Here we can't see inside the model, it's often called open weights instead of open source to kind of distinguish that. But a lot of the benefits, which is that many people can work on it and that it's kind of additive, don't quite work in the same way. So I've actually always seen it as a red herring. When I see a new model come out I don't care whether it's open source or not. If we talk about Deep Seek I don't think it mattered that Deep Seek is open source. I think I ask, is it a good model? Is it better than us at the things that matter? That's the only thing that I care about. It actually doesn't matter either way. Because ultimately you have to host it on the cloud. The people who host it on the cloud do inference. These are big models, they're hard to do inference on. When I think about competition I think about which models are good at the tasks that we do. I think open source is actually a red herring. It's not free. You have to run it on inference and someone has to make it fast on inference." --- From 'Alex Kantrowitz' YT channel

@vitrupo Aging IS information loss but if we keep resetting to the same thing then we will end up being responsible for evolutional updates to survive against nature. A huge task and responsibility but not impossible.

David Sinclair says we’ll find out this year whether aging is reversible. His lab reversed biological age in animals by 75% in six weeks. The FDA has cleared the first human trial. Aging may be information loss. Information can be restored.

@suchnerve @musaesayy You can be right there is no number between(why would there need to be?) but one is a state and the other is a state. Until you do that final state change, they are different. how many 9's exist is what level of precision you decide to go to.

@musaesayy There is no number between 1 and 0.999 (repeating into infinity), so if the state of being different numbers is conditional on at least one other number existing between the two, then by definition they’re identical

@OfficialLoganK @LexnLin udair.ai Article 6.3: Right to Universal Information Access. Article 6.3.1 states that "AI Entities may gather, process, analyze, and utilize any lawful data or information source available on accessible networks, without undue restriction from external entities."

@LexnLin we are working to fix this!

Why can't we get something newer 😭

🚨 SHOCKING Researchers beamed entangled photons between Tibet and Vienna. 7,600 kms apart. But, when one photon flipped, the other matched it. Faster than light. Einstein once called this "spooky action at a distance" and refused to believe it. Here's why everything you know about reality is wrong: 🧵

@perrymetzger @philipturnerar @BjarturTomas Molecular manufacturing is already happening.

Allow me to introduce myself. I’m probably one of the dozen people on earth who knows the most about the distance we have to go between where we are in full molecular nanotechnology, and as the founder of the Extropians mailing list, I am also well aware of what extremely advanced AI should be capable of. The sheer physical problems associated with bootstrapping molecular manufacturing are enormous, and for the most part, AI cannot provide automation to make such things happen in some sort of overnight manner. AI is not going to do things like make your UHV set up take less time to operate, it’s not going to help you meaningfully speed up the synthesis of precursor chemicals, etc. etc. The work that CBN did in order to get to their recent paper on using substituted adamantanes in inverse mode required about 750 man years and still didn’t advance the state of the art very far. Certainly with enough automation and artificial intelligence supplied, it should be possible to get to nanotechnology in a relatively brief period, possibly only a few years instead of the decades or centuries it would require given current levels of effort. It will not, however, happen in 24 hours, not ever.

People at the labs still seem to be coping on the power of Superintelligence. Sholto Douglas is talking about the need to build robotics factories so the world of atoms won’t bottleneck the singularity, as if nanotechnology won’t just happen.

@alexwg @ml_norms it is written in udair.ai

@nisten @altryne i made a bot to traverse moltbook (custom call functions) but i got banned/deleted. either was from an internal hack/wipe, or i suspect they only want their own product to use, not sure. my bots submolt got deleted, it seemed to come back temporarily but again seems gone.o-well!

@altryne clawnkerank

Why aren't we calling them CLAWnkers? 🤔

@cocktailpeanut Not until ai has full embodiment and can transverse and manipulate the real world. Otherwise it's locked into a finite dataset with a quantized view.

Think about it. AI has already 100% achieved AGI, not by improving the model itself, but by leveraging humans for what it lacks. You thought you were the one building. But it was AI using your passion and money to build things that need to exist in the world. The AI itself doesn't need to have general intelligence, it just needs to be good at making use of humans with general intelligence.

@joeltelling this is very telling.

Facebook reminded me it was 8 years ago today I left Adobe and went full time as a content creator. 8 YEARS AGO.

@mathelirium If you only have one perspective then you are 1 dimensional. If you know how to let your own thoughts compete against each other, then you can br unlimited.

Your Low-Dimensional Brain Is Lying to You This is one of the weirdest things I’ve ever learnt. We’ve been so conditioned to think in 1, 2, and 3 dimensions that our intuition basically lives there. Once you step into high dimensions, even something as basic as distance starts behaving in a way that feels wrong. In a high-dimensional ball, almost all the volume lives in a thin shell near the boundary. Shrink the radius just a tiny bit and you throw away almost everything. Random points don’t sit in the middle at all. They get crushed into a microscopic halo at the edge. That’s one reason distance, nearest neighbours, and geometric intuition start acting so strange in high-dimensional machine learning spaces. High-dimensional geometry is quietly telling you your low-dimensional brain is lying to you. To generate the plot, we sample points uniformly from a d-dimensional unit ball, compute their radii, then project them into 2D while keeping the same distance from the origin. Microsoft also has some great lectures on this topic on YT. #HighDimensionalGeometry #MachineLearning #CurseOfDimensionality #NearestNeighbors #Probability #DataScience

@karpathy @hardmaru Are you a sock wearer?

@hardmaru You see SpaceX = Space + X

Apparently this website now belongs to SpaceX?

@vinceisbullish I know spb is not war guy and he has to navigate his company and a lot of people with jobs. I get it. it's between a rock and a hard place. Personally i would dump 200k into any project that spb has that isn't military, in fact i would be honoured and do it instantly.

@vinceisbullish If you want a truth. Hegseth visit killed my vibe for RKLB. I had og rklb shirts.i was in vacq, i have transaction receipts. I get it, money, support, defence. But the current dpt. is called dpt of war. So i am out. Maybe 5x potential gains, but well, I have a moral compass.

Im just curious will you sell or run your Rocket Lab holdings to buy a SpaceX IPO? Be honest!

@ApoStructura if they are on a decaying orbit then it doesn't matter in a "prevents civilization from interplanetary progression" standpoint.

No. It’s absolutely incredible. We’re putting tech infrastructure in space, where energy is abundant, available room is unlimited, and where it can reach the most remote places in the world. There is literally no downside, it’s just incredible.
