Incredibly excited for @fluidstack to partner with @AnthropicAI and help build a world of abundant intelligence. We are hiring - reach out if you want to work at the frontier!

Top tier swag game from the @fluidstack team🧢 look at the GB200 set!

jensen liked our gb200 legos

lego lithography means lego gpus as well

We thank @EmmanuelMacron's leadership in making this happen. At Fluidstack, honored to build the nationally important infrastructure required to deploy AI at scale, and excited to continue to support companies like @MistralAI, @Poolside, @BFL_ml, and many more.

We are excited to announce Fluidstack's partnership with the French Ministry of the Economy to build a 1GW nuclear-powered AI cluster in France. We will deploy 500k+ GPUs to begin, and will continue to scale this cluster into one of the largest AI clusters on the planet.

I wrote something about working at TSMC. Linked below.

@natfriedman absolutely amazing

Ten months ago, we launched the Vesuvius Challenge to solve the ancient problem of the Herculaneum Papyri, a library of scrolls that were flash-fried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Today we are overjoyed to announce that our crazy project has succeeded. After 2000 years, we can finally read the scrolls: This image was produced by @Youssef_M_Nader, @LukeFarritor, and @JuliSchillij, who have now won the Vesuvius Challenge Grand Prize of $700,000. Congratulations!! These fifteen columns come from the very end of the first scroll we have been able to read and contain new text from the ancient world that has never been seen before. The author – probably Epicurean philosopher Philodemus – writes here about music, food, and how to enjoy life's pleasures. In the closing section, he throws shade at unnamed ideological adversaries – perhaps the stoics? – who "have nothing to say about pleasure, either in general or in particular." This year, the Vesuvius Challenge continues. The text that we revealed so far represents just 5% of one scroll. In 2024, our goal is to from reading a few passages of text to entire scrolls, and we're announcing a new $100,000 grand prize for the first team that is able to read at least 90% of all four scrolls that we have scanned. The scrolls stored in Naples that remain to be read represent more than 16 megabytes of ancient text. But the villa where the scrolls were found was only partially excavated, and scholars tell us that there may be thousands more scrolls underground. Our hope is that the success of the Vesuvius Challenge catalyzes the excavation of the villa, that the main library is discovered, and that whatever we find there rewrites history and inspires all of us. It's been a great joy to work on this strange and amazing project. Thanks to Brent Seales for laying the foundation for this work over so many years, thanks to the friends and Twitter users whose donations powered our effort, and thanks to the many contestants whose contributions have made the Vesuvius Challenge successful!

Nicer video of Alfie cleaning an office.. next up, we’re working with Buck Lewis ( issuu.com/risd/docs/risd… ) to redesign Alfie to be more ✨🫧⚡️

@hrishioa Is this similar/distinct to HyDE?

We've had a lot of success for complex tasks with LLMs using a method I don't think I've seen out there yet. Not sure what to call it but a codename is 'Reversed Retrieval-Application'. I'll make a detailed post later, but here's the skinny:

@ericjang11 Fluidstack

I'm putting together a prediction market question around current and upcoming GPU compute startups (e.g. Lambda, TinyCorp, Coreweave, Paperspace, TensorDock). Any others I've missed?

@vriparbelli Awesome!! Congrats!

Really proud of the Synthesia team for pulling off our first SIGGRAPH paper! HumanRF is our first step towards next gen avatar tech that will enable much more rich and complex AI video. More magic coming soon 🔮 For the first time ever we're also opening up some of our research to the community; code/data coming soon!

An early timelapse video of Alfie, the general purpose teleop robot we've been building at @prosper Here it cleans a kitchen table, wipes the surface, rinses dishes in the sink before placing them in the dishwasher, throws trash, and puts other items away.

@allylyq One of my favorite articles danluu.com/look-stupid/

@Fraser @spolu Linear correlation between “# GPUs” and “% Very Disappointed”

Everyone is out here deploying complex vector databases for semantic search or thinking they need to scale to billions of queries on day one You can run cosine sim for 150k records (768 emb size) on a single GPU in just ~3ms
