Claude Code is about to release a feature called /workflows that I think will be extremely significant.
Especially for Enterprise AI.
I talked about this in 2024 in a post called Companies Are Just Graphs of Algorithms.
Basically the idea is that all work is just an algorithm, i.e., a series of steps to accomplish a goal.
Skills and Cowork have been heading in this direction already, and we've seen what that's done to company valuations in various spaces.
Well this is closer to the final form.
It's turning the regular, expected work that's done in companies into pseudo-deterministic workflows that follow defined SOPs.
The human role will be determining what problems to solve (taste, expeirence, etc), building new products from that, and then optimizing these workflows from above.
But the work itself will be these workflows executed according to SOPs.

Anthropic is hiring for 6 roles in London and is willing to pay up to £630k A YEAR for each.
The AI lab is expanding its London presence and has secured a new office for 800 people.
As part of this expansion it has over 40 open roles available in London.
Six of these are for different research engineers (e.g. reinforcement learning, scaling etc..) with the salaries reaching up to £630k!
This excludes stock options.
BONKERS
OpenAI, Anthropic, Ineffable Intelligence, Google DeepMind, Recursive... the war for AI talent is HEATING up in London.
I wouldn't be surprised if salaries hit over £1m soon.

Grok foundation model V9-Medium (1.5T) has finished training. Evals look good. A lot of Cursor data was added in supplementary training and there is more to come.
Fine-tuning is underway and reinforcement learning begins in a few days. 2 to 3 weeks to public release.
This will be a major improvement over the 0.5T v8-small that currently serves all Grok production traffic, especially for difficult coding tasks.

Anthropic co-founder Chris Olah on mysterious AI internal states:
We keep finding things that are mysterious, even unsettling.
We find structures that mirror results from human neuroscience.
We find evidence of introspection.
We find internal states that, functionally, mirror joy, satisfaction, fear, grief, and unease.
I don't know what that means, but I think it warrants ongoing discernment.

Right. Just so we’re all clear.
Farage and Reform tried to put me in prison because I backed the mass deportation of Pakistani child rapists and their foreign wives/relatives who allowed it to happen.
My home was raided by armed police late on a Friday night as a direct result of Reform’s allegations. My guns were seized. They tried to ruin my life. In every way.
Farage admitted on national television it was all because I backed mass deportations.
He said that was the moment they realised they ‘had to get rid’ of me.
Not the bullshit allegations they went to the police with, but the fact I want the Pakistani rapists removed from our country.
He admitted it.
That all happened.
Fair enough. I took it on the chin, and planned out our next step.
I founded Restore Britain to give the British people the democratic option to agree with me.
Restore Britain will, without apology, deport every last foreign rapist and all foreign accomplices who knew it was happening, yet failed to act.
If that means entire communities go, that means entire communities go. I really don’t care.
We will rid Britain of that cancer.
Now Reform are incandescently angry that we are giving the British people that choice.
Deploying increasingly desperate smears against our movement.
If people don’t agree, they can vote for someone else who won’t deport. There are plenty of options - Reform, Labour, Tories. Take your pick. Go for it.
But if you want those evil scumbags out of our country, along with every foreign coward who enabled it?
You now have that genuine option.
Restore Britain.

Nothing will shape your worldview as much as simply reading how humans from the past thought.
You realize very quickly that our time is a radical anomaly in human history.

This is the new AI forward agency org chart.
The old model was functions, handoffs, reports, and labor arbitrage.
The new model is outcomes, loops, agent fleets, and systems memory.
Every role owns a number. Every loop has feedback. Every workflow writes back to the company brain.
This is how we're thinking about it:

We need heat shields to protect us, since we use the air to slow us down as we return to Earth.
From orbital speed, it gets to 1650°C / 3000°F. From the Moon: 2750°C / 5000°F.
For yesterday's Starship suborbital test flight, peak was 1450°C / 2600°F. Great to see the @SpaceX progress over the last 3 flights. Making them truly reusable is complex and necessary for permanent, cheap space access.

Exclusive from @eleanorhayward
Britain is facing an “economic catastrophe” as young adults “rewired” by smartphones are becoming trapped in worklessness, a government review has found
A landmark report into why one million young people are off work says businesses must adapt to this “anxious generation” by offering greater flexibility and mental health support
Alan Milburn, a former health secretary, was appointed by Sir Keir Starmer to investigate the 946,000 16 to 24-year-olds not in education, employment or training, known as Neets
His interim report, to be published next week, says that a “rising tide of mental ill-health, anxiety, depression, neurodiversity” is the main reason for high economic inactivity
Milburn said that these young people “are not snowflakes or faking it”, adding that their heightened distress and anxiety is linked to growing up in a digital age on social media
The review team held focus groups with young people, which revealed smartphones had led to poorer sleep and mental distress. “Every one of a group of ten 12 and 13-year-olds told us they went to bed between midnight and 3am because they were scrolling on their phone,” the review says
Milburn said: “This is a bedroom generation. They are sort of living in their bedrooms. They are on all the time, they’re never off. [Social media] is leading to some evidence of functional impairment, changing their sleep patterns, concentration levels. That is having an impact on their ability to work “

A 6-person team is building task-specific AI models that are 4-8x faster than anything from OpenAI or Anthropic. 500K downloads on HuggingFace. No hype. Just better engineering winning on the merits.
This is what "make something people want" looks like in the model layer.

Claude-opus-4.8 on Vertex is kind of a big deal. Didn’t expect Google Cloud to become the default place for frontier models but here we are.......
