Tinkering with @OpenAI Image 2.0 text. Impressive text output, though wrapping on geometry needs a bit more work. Will experiment over the week. Back at SOTA images generator!

@model_mechanic @gabeeegoooh Incredible update ya'll! Will dive in this week experimenting but congrats to the team!

It's been inspiring seeing the progress over the past few months -- @gabeeegoooh leads an amazing team!

@steipete Lobsters been red dotted!

Vancouver, it’s been a blast! 🇨🇦

“The lobster is loose, and it’s not going back into the tank,” says @openclaw founder @steipete. In this brand new talk from #TED2026 he shares why AI agents — built by you — are the future: t.ted.com/DPASxmF

GBrain v0.10.0 is a big one My personal OpenClaw setup and brain can now be yours. I've perfected my RESOLVER.md, my SOUL.md and ACLs for multi-user brain access. Now there are 24 distinct fat skills with fat code, fully tested with e2e tests, evals and unit tests.

1/ today we're releasing muse spark, the first model from MSL. nine months ago we rebuilt our ai stack from scratch. new infrastructure, new architecture, new data pipelines. muse spark is the result of that work, and now it powers meta ai. 🧵

Both societies exist simultaneously. really incredible to think about

Sam Altman predicted in 2024 that a one-person billion-dollar company "would have been unimaginable without A.I., and now it will happen." He just emailed the NYT saying he won a bet with tech CEO friends over when it would arrive, and that he "would like to meet the guy." The guy: Matthew Gallagher, 41. Spent $20K and two months building a GLP-1 weight-loss telehealth company out of his living room in LA. The stack: ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok writing code. Midjourney for images. Runway for video ads. ElevenLabs handling customer calls. Custom AI agents stitching it all together. $401M revenue in year one. On track for $1.8B this year.

Palmer Luckey on the three companies he considered starting after Oculus After selling Oculus to Facebook for $2 billion when he was 21 years old, Palmer Luckey was fired for his political views. He then said to himself: “Okay, I have to do something that proves they shouldn’t have fired me, that I am smart, and that I am not a one-hit wonder because being a one-hit wonder would be so depressing.” Palmer considered three ideas for his second company: 1. Working in the national security space (this became Anduril). He saw that cost-plus contracting was a broken contract structure that led to massive cost overruns and misaligned incentives. Palmer explains, “I think that I could start a company that does a lot the things companies like Lockheed and Raytheon and Northrop are bad at doing that I’m good at doing.” 2. A non-profit private prison company. “I think private prisons are very bad. I think they lead to terrible outcomes. They’re a lobbying machine where all the money that is generated largely goes back into lobbying government officials for stricter sentences on the people who are the cheapest to incarcerate. So not the terrorists. Not the murderers. It’s the nonviolent offenders… Those are the ones that private prisons want to house because they’re not going to kill people… And that’s how you end up with all these mandatory minimum sentencing laws for crimes that don’t matter in my opinion.” After realizing that lobbying wasn’t going to work to solve this problem because there’s too much money in it, Palmer considered starting a non-profit private prison that doesn’t get paid until released prisoners have been out five years without going back. “If they go back, I don’t get paid. It means I’m taking on the risk, and it means my incentives are going to be very aligned with getting people out of prison and not having them come back, whereas current prisons are the opposite. I decided against that because I realized it was not actually a skill set that I had. I’m a technology guy… The legal issues with doing this state by state are very tough.” 3. Petroleum-based food products. “I think the only way to solve obesity in America is to allow anybody to eat as much as they want of anything with no self control or changes to their physical activity whatsoever. It has to be the Holy Grail or we’re all just going to keep dying of obesity and related problems. And if you’re a food scientist, you generally make things out of foodstuffs, and I think that’s a big mistake. If you’re a chemical or material engineer and you want to make something with a certain texture or property, you start with long-chain hydrocarbons—oil. It’s the perfect building block for everything.. So if you could make synthetic foods out of petroleum derivatives, you could make foods that have largely the same characteristics as real foods but with zero calories because your body’s not going to process them. So I started building paraffin cheese and paraffin cheese totally works. It has no calories. It tastes mostly like cheese. And I think that you could get it to be better than cheese on some time scale because it’s actually easier to adjust it and play with it and iterate on it than with cultured dairy products. Anyway, I decided against that because it turns out the FDA completely bans this idea. It’s completely illegal.” Ultimately Palmer decided on working in the national security space because building Anduril better fit his strengths as a technologist. Video source: @IMA_Network (2021)
