@TC36489185 @aruvinchan Or the morons who recommend marriage to others in their posts/lives. Extremely dangerous proposition in the modern age.





Still find it funny when I meet new people and they are shocked when I say we go in to the office everyday at xai and they think 5 days



chinese models are ~8 months behind and are falling further behind



It’s time to demystify Mythos. Mythos is not magic. It’s not a doomsday device. It’s the first of many models that can automate cyber tasks (just like coding). OpenAI’s GPT-5.5-cyber can now do the same. And all the frontier models (including those from China) will be there within approximately 6 months. It’s important to recognize that these models do not create vulnerabilities; they discover them. The bugs are already in the code. Using AI to discover and patch them will actually harden these systems. The leap from pre-AI cyber to post-AI cyber means that there will be a big upgrade cycle. After that, however, the market is likely to reach a new equilibrium between AI-powered cyber-offense and AI-powered cyber-defense. Obviously it’s important that cyber defenders get access before cyber attackers. That process is already underway but needs to happen quickly (see point above about Chinese models). Unlike Mythos, GPT-5.5-cyber appears not to be token constrained so it may be the first cyber model that defenders actually get to use.

Reuters reports Huawei plans to make 750,000 Ascend 950PR AI chips in 2026. That is TINY--about 1% of Nvidia's AI compute production--and will not come close to meeting China's AI needs. China needs US chips to compete with the US in AI - which is why we shouldn't give them any!
