This from Paul Ehrlich will make you think "If I'm always wrong so is science, since my work is always peer-reviewed, including the POPULATION BOMB and I've gotten virtually every scientific honor." Link in reply
A new nonprofit called Radial is launching with at least $500 million to modernize the scientific process for the AI era. trib.al/yfGSUvt
1/ We’re excited that @dileeplearning is joining @Astera as Head of AI, leading our AGI research division. With decades of neuroscience-informed AI experience, the team will ask whether brain-inspired architectures enable safer, more efficient AGI.
Vast has been selected by @NASASpaceOps for the sixth private astronaut mission to the International Space Station. Launching no earlier than summer 2027, the commercial crew will spend up to 14 days aboard the station. vastspace.com/updates/vast-s…
LLM memory is considered one of the hardest problems in AI. All we have today are endless hacks and workarounds. But the root solution has always been right in front of us. Next-token prediction is already an effective compressor. We don’t need a radical new architecture. The missing piece is to continue training the model at test-time, using context as training data. Our full release of End-to-End Test-Time Training (TTT-E2E) with @NVIDIAAI, @AsteraInstitute, and @StanfordAILab is now available. Blog: nvda.ws/4syfyMN Arxiv: arxiv.org/abs/2512.23675 This has been over a year in the making with @arnuvtandon and an incredible team.
@JedMcCaleb @seemaychou We’re looking for crazy people who share our dream—starting with a COO. Please see the announcement for how to get in touch.
I am deeply excited to share that I will be joining @AsteraInstitute to start a new effort to understand how the brain generates consciousness and intelligence.
Two conversations this weekend make me think that there's a vibe shift afoot in Silicon Valley around what one should work on and what is worthwhile. Culturally, it feels like the moment is ripe for new frameworks: • Davos expert morality is stale and discredited. • It's also apparent that the "just be super based" Counter-Enlightenment is not really an answer. (Yes, woke went too far, but simply inverting it doesn't work.) • EA is no longer the automatic default for smart people. • There's increasing skepticism of slot and slop machine dynamics. Overall, "what is worthy and valuable?" feels like it's becoming more central.
