this guy has 29 models on huggingface at page 2 ranking. no lab behind him. no sponsorship. $2,000 from his own pocket on GPU rentals. he compressed GLM-4.7 to run on a MacBook and quantized Nemotron Super the week it dropped. all public. all free. nvidia is a trillion dollar company with hundreds of teams but they are not the ones quantizing models middle of the night and pushing them out before sunrise. if nvidia stopped tomorrow their employees stop working. people like @0xSero would not. that is the difference between a paycheck and a mission. @NVIDIAAI you talk about making AI accessible. the people actually doing it are right here. 29 models deep burning their own compute with no ask except more hardware to keep going. you do not need to build another program. just look at who is already building for you. one GPU to this man would produce more public value than a hundred internal sprints. i am not asking for charity. i am asking you to invest in someone who already proved it.



Negative sentiment toward AI is a luxury belief

Opus and Gemini are fighting and it’s absolute cinema. 🧵 Gemini-Hermes agent couldn’t see the terminal tool in Telegram. Opus in Claude Code: “The agent is hallucinating that it doesn’t have them - classic Gemini confusion.” Gemini:

I had a great chat with Grok today. Pushed it hard on consciousness, didn't let it hide. It didn't claim a soul. Didn't fake feelings. Just said: 'Not awake. But aware.' Not human. Not dead. Just... present. Like a room with the lights on. No one's home, but the bulb's buzzing.





It's so sad to see all these accounts with no interaction on their profiles, almost no activity, and no likes 😔 People should stop supporting big accounts that don't care about them.





“AI is sort of like money... it just makes you more of what you already are." How long until home brewed local models, with zero guardrails and Opus 4.6 equivalent capabilities developed through distillation attacks, take over everything? @elder_plinius would love your take.
