@GoogleCloudTech Really like this We've been moving in the same direction at Combra and are about 90% of the way there already If OKF catches on as a standard, that's great for everyone, and we'll be ready to plug straight in

Introducing the Open Knowledge Format (OKF), an open specification that formalizes the LLM-wiki pattern into a portable, interoperable format. AI is only as smart as the context we give it. As we build more advanced, agentic AI systems, they need accurate metadata and context to be useful. But in most organizations, that context is locked inside fragmented data catalogs, isolated wikis, scattered code comments, or the minds of senior engineers. Every time a new AI agent is built, teams are forced to solve the exact same context-assembly problem from scratch. To solve this, we've announced OKF, a vendor-neutral, open specification that formalizes the "LLM-wiki pattern" into a portable, interoperable format. It provides a standardized way to represent the enterprise knowledge that modern AI systems rely on. — Just markdown: readable in any editor, renderable on GitHub, indexable by any search tool — Just files: shippable as a tarball, hostable in any git repo, mountable on any filesystem — Just YAML frontmatter: for the small set of structured fields that need to be queryable: type, title, description, resource, tags, and timestamp We’ve also shipped reference implementations to help you hit the ground running, including an enrichment agent for BigQuery, a static HTML visualizer, and live sample bundles on @githubgoo.gle/4uGvAEe ➕ Knowledge Catalog can now natively ingest OKF! Stop reinventing data models and building bespoke integrations for every new AI tool. Here's more about how OKF works → goo.gle/4uGvBbg

Google just shipped the Open Knowledge Format. It's good, but it skips the hard part. Markdown plus a little YAML frontmatter, shippable as a tarball, readable in any editor, indexable by any tool. If your AI context is trapped in scattered wikis and code comments, OKF gives it a clean, portable shape. I agree with the diagnosis. It's the problem I've been working on for the last few months. Making knowledge portable is an important step forward. But here's what the announcement leaves out. The format is the easy 80%, and Google just gave it a common language. The hard 20% is everything a static file can't represent: 1) Who's allowed to see which fact. A markdown file in a tarball doesn't know the comp doc is off-limits to the intern. A company brain has to enforce that inside the query itself, or the AI will happily quote a source the asker was never allowed to open. 2) When a fact stopped being true. OKF has a timestamp. A real decision has a lifecycle: it took effect in January, got superseded in March, and the thing that replaced it points back. Ask about a year-old decision and you should learn what changed, not get a stale file with a confident date on it. 3) Whether the answer is proven or guessed. A wiki hands an LLM context and hopes. Grounding means every claim is pinned to the exact sentence it came from, with a page and a source you can open. Readable-by-an-LLM is not the same as verifiable. The format makes knowledge portable. That's a really important step forward. But it doesn't make it permissioned, dated, or provable. That's the actual company brain, and that's where the real work is. We're building it at Combra. If this is the problem you're living with, the waitlist is open.

So based. I used to think Oleg Tinkov was cringe. A guy who swore constantly, talked about how his company would fuck everyone else over, and generally behaved however he wanted. But then the war started. Out of all major Russian businessmen, he was one of the very few who publicly spoke the truth. Because of that, he lost the company he had built — a bank that was once worth around $9B. But he started over from scratch, and just 4 years later he built another bank, Plata, that's already worth more than $5B. On the other side of the world! And the same goes for Elon Musk. Sure, he makes a lot of controversial statements. Yes, some of them are wrong. But he's also an exceptionally talented entrepreneur who keeps proving it through what he builds and through his position on the Forbes list. It's not scary to be cringe. What is really scary is being nobody and achieving nothing with your life.

You’ll never achieve anything if you are afraid of being cringe Then again this is from someone trying to use looksmaxxing to achieve outsize return, good luck with that

@trq212 The gap between 'AI generated something useful' and 'a coworker actually opens it' is mostly a rendering problem.

I recently listened to a podcast about modern education and how we should be teaching kids. At one point, they were discussing the social media bans in Australia, and an 11-year-old girl said: "If my grandmother lives on the other side of a forest full of wolves, teach me how to walk through the forest. Don't forbid me from visiting my grandmother." Remarkable that even small children seem to understand this better than many modern politicians.

Banning social media for teenagers only puts them in greater danger. Teens are forced to switch to VPNs — and unlock far worse illegal content. We’ve seen this before. When the Russian government banned Telegram, 95% of Russian teenagers kept using it. They just moved to VPNs.

Two years in what I still think is the best country in the world. With all my projects, I almost missed the date entirely. Funny how quickly even a place this extraordinary becomes part of everyday life.

It's a great feeling when industry leaders put your own vision into words: the ability to switch out a "generalist" model without losing the "company veteran" expertise. Everyone is racing to get the best model. I think that's the wrong race. The model is turning into a commodity, rented by the month and swapped whenever a better one ships. What is not a commodity is what your company has actually figured out: the decisions, the "we already tried that, here's why it didn't work," the rule that quietly replaced an older one. The problem is this knowledge has never lived in one place. Customer conversations sit in one tool, product decisions in another, the analytics in a dashboard, and the reasoning in a recording nobody reopens. The threads between them exist almost nowhere except inside a few people's heads. And that's what makes those people so valuable. They don't just know facts. They remember that the feature you're debating today traces back to a complaint from six months ago, or suspect that yesterday's drop in conversion is the pricing experiment someone ran weeks ago. What excites me about AI is that those connections no longer have to live in a few people's minds. The dots a veteran connects instinctively, a model can now connect for everyone, across everything the company has decided and shipped. You can always offload the work. The learning is the part that should compound, yet it's exactly the part we keep losing. A new hire shouldn't need six months to figure out how the company reasons. An agent shouldn't start from zero every time a new model ships. What the company has learned shouldn't vanish because the person who remembered it left. The model underneath will change. The understanding on top shouldn't. That's exactly what we're building at Combra.

Dumb bullshit and rhetoric straight out of the Russian government playbook lol. Restrictions never help. They just make things worse. Kids need to learn how to deal with problems, risks, and difficult situations. You can't prepare them for life by trying to hide life from them. I've never seen a single kid whose life got better because of restrictions, or who was actually prevented from doing something because of them

We are banning social media access for under 16s. These days kids must find their feet in a world where technology intrudes into every area of their life. I just can’t let that go on anymore. So we’re giving children their childhoods back.
