Rest assured that GPT 5.6 Sol will stay in the ChatGPT subscription you pay for. Including Go, Plus and Pro subscriptions. At least until we ship an even better model.

Norm Matloff 你有冇諗清楚呀?
I’m Dr. Norman Matloff’s daughter, and it is with great sadness that I share that my father passed away earlier in June, surrounded by his family. He faced his cancer diagnosis with unflagging optimism and never stopped pursuing his passions of writing, mentoring students, and enjoying life’s simple pleasures. He has left behind a legacy: generations of UC Davis graduates in his 40+ years teaching, open source software and tutorials available to anybody, a body of technical work in research publications, software packages, and books. The lively discourse that he had with all of you on this platform gave him great pleasure, and he felt genuine connections with many of you here. He will be so very missed. May his memory be a perpetual blessing.

That feeling when you procrastinate on some work that's causing you stress for 2 months, only to open the doc and realize it was about 20 minutes of work and not stressful.

unsolicited advice to college students and recent grads, after lots of recent coffees w/ people entering the job market: the most accomplished person you know may not have the most relevant career advice for you. they can offer immense wisdom ofc, but you should also seek out successful people in their late 20s / 30s who’ve been successful in the current job market. for example, students often tell me that their parents or an older, tenured professor have encouraged them to pursue academia because they’re bookish, intellectually curious, etc. and that may be sincere advice! — but it’s coming from someone who hasn’t confronted the relevant job market in decades. you can’t look at someone’s linkedin trajectory and assume trying to replicate it would pan out the same way now. ok good luck and godspeed.

One of the best pieces of advice I got during my PhD was that there are no repeatable paths in academia. This might sound daunting because of the lack of certainty. But once you internalize it, it is actually incredibly freeing! You don't need to participate in career games that don't interest you. You can choose to work on projects that are aligned with *your* values rather than your institution's. And because you're working on things you deeply believe in, there's much more likelihood that you'll do impactful things. Like so many other things I learned, this was advice by @random_walker. I would even extend it beyond academia: there are no repeatable paths when transformative technologies like AI are being deployed; even career paths otherwise considered "safe" will undergo massive structural changes. Might as well lean into it.

Very cool! Fable found my 6x great-grandfather from the 1700s (we had only traced that line to the 1870s) Stack: familysearch . org data (Russian church books scanned by Mormons in the 90s) + YOLO line segmentation + Finnish National Archives' OCR model for handwritten Cyrillic

The AGI is here - Can an AI agent find my ancestors? I gave my AI agent just one thing: my grandfather's name, born in Poland. That's it. Everything else in this thread was found on its own. 🧵

A good scientific talk is when you spend an hour explaining what took you 3 years to understand, in such a clear way that it seems obvious. The price of clarity is that everyone leaves thinking it must have been easy.

Honestly, Fable has a point here. Kinda why most math/scientific results started out as intuitions rather than the product of some systematic deduction. The deductions came after to make concrete the intuitions we began with.
