@EMostaque If you google it there are already actively developed nanobots in medicine but they are mostly still experimenting with materials and safety. Needs commercial clout.
Could be a game changer for non-invasive surgery and also for things that just weren't possible before.

@MrMSpencer @chrisoffner3d Pretty sure that's an intern, do they even get paid?
English
@chrisoffner3d haha funny if that's a $200-300k a year AI engineer (human).
English
Is anyone checking the false positive rate? I just saw the robot shove a package onto the belt with the barcode facing up. Didn’t see the human make such a mistake.

@lauriewired @difficultyang Also theres the thinking depth mode (xhigh etc) which can make a difference, the harness matters as well.
Not that it stops them doing daft things, but it imposes more self criticism before (and during) applying an answer.
English
I think they do, but you have to prompt them deeper to make them actually think things through.
for example, the other day I caught one passing a primitive by const ref and I was like why are you doing that. It could explain why it was stupid to do once I asked, but by default it just spit out code without thinking
English
Do LLMs truly understand C++ ownership rules or have they simply memorized enough examples to present a simulacra of understanding
English
@gusbeand @adcock_brett @bWgibb The amount of people that have completely missed the point is beyond belief.
It's like when people think AI is only used to make fake video of rabbits on trampolines.
English
@adcock_brett @bWgibb I can't believe that you have to clarify this kind of things... In fact, you shouldn't even
English
this seems like solving the wrong problem… @adcock_brett, if the job is to scan the packages downstream, why not just have multiple bar code readers at various angles and skip the robot?
Coin Bureau@coinbureau
Nobody is paying enough attention to what is happening at Figure AI right now. Its humanoid robots are now working 70 hours straight livestream, sorting packages at around 2.6 seconds each. That is reportedly FASTER than the average human worker (3secs). They have now sorted over 88,000 packages with no human assistance, no teleoperation, and no cloud. The company says it will NOT STOP the stream until a robot physically breaks. The labor market is about to be redefined.
English
@davidfowl Yeah I think everyone in the bubble has had that intense phase and we're getting past it into the business as usual phase.
I've got changes I've sat on for a week mulling over pros and cons, end result was to take them out again. Slow and steady is often right.
English
@itechnologynet @awakecoding That's a good point, I wonder how many devs have been funding this themselves ("shadow AI") and how many bosses don't know. I guess we'll find out as all the prices gradually go up.
English
@awakecoding no clue
..i was paying $40 out of my pocket
Now i'm gonna have to tell my boss, it's over, i'm not paying anymore, especially since GH said my $40 would now cost $1200
So boss is either gonna pay, or have to explain to clients why things now suddenly take 10x more time

Organizations using GitHub Copilot, what are the different ways you plan to address the upcoming pricing changes? I only see 3 options so far:
1) Upgrading from Business to Enterprise may save money because included AI credits are now pooled and cost less than on-demand credits
English
@elonmusk If your model is not selectable in GitHub copilot it doesn't exist, need to work on that to compete as a choice for coding.
English
Try this early Grok Build (anything) beta and let us know what to improve.
Much appreciated!
xAI@xai
An early beta of Grok Build, an agentic CLI for coding, building apps, and automating workflows is now available for SuperGrok Heavy subscribers. Through this early beta, we will improve the model and product based on your feedback. Try it at x.ai/cli

@pierceboggan @code Does this look share with Visual Studio or is that a competing development?
English
We believe the agent harness in @code to be best in market today.
Today, the team shared a behind-the-scenes look at our harness optimization efforts, including our own offline evaluation suite vsc-bench:

English
@davidfowl As long as it requires 2FA approval it's cool. The thing to avoid is single step release by someone compromising that account.
English
How many of you have a single step, fully automated release process?
English
@Model3Guy @adcock_brett It's arranging package barcodes face down so they can be scanned. It's a fictional workload, yes, but it's still a workload.
English
@adcock_brett I don’t get it. What is the purpose of this work? It’s not sorting. It’s just sending packages down the conveyor. One at a time.
English
Frank merch in the house!!
p.s. robots are closing in on 30 hours of nonstop operations. Hopefully they don't fail and keep going
English
@JBONAMASSA It never had dominance but it still has pretty much the same number of listeners, they're just aging out is all. Genres have decades in which they are most popular, that's just how it is. Riffs are pretty timeless though, it's not all blues.
English
In my opinion guitar oriented riff rock lost dominance when the general public stopped being able to decipher what was real or not. ( or at least highly manipulated in protools or post.) In the case of Jimmy Page, Tony Iommi, EVH, Keith Richards, ect ect the listener could put the song on, close their eyes, and instantly imagine an engineer hitting record and those guys actually playing that shit until they got it right. It's a binary thing that humans tend to respond well to. Authenticity and realness. Great article though. 😎👍

@ID_AA_Carmack You guys definitely went to a different school from me.

I'm a little disappointed with myself that the high school algebra identity didn't occur to me right away.
English
@Chris_in_NH @adcock_brett Pretty sure it's one robot at a time while the others charge themselves?
English
@adcock_brett If they switch out ( Gary,Frank,Bob ( i think) ) every 4 hours. Would they run indefinitely if they were standing on their charger that was plugged in ( charging while working). Other wise someone would need either extra batteries or multiple robots.

@DevinOlsenn @foglinehiker @virginiabeach1 I'm ok with getting recovery for a flat. I haven't had to change a tyre in ~30yrs of driving, and have had one slow puncture.
English
@foglinehiker @virginiabeach1 You just need jack pads (which are ~$20)
beyond that it's the same as jacking up a regular car.

So let me get this straight... A new Tesla can effectively drive itself anywhere in North America (supervised), something no other company here is even CLOSE to rivaling right now... But that's not noteworthy? In fact, you regularly discredit FSD.
But BYD shows... whatever THIS is, and you're suddenly in awe of how great the company is.
It's disappointing that a dislike for Elon leads to turning a blind eye to all of the incredible work the men and women have done at Tesla.
very weird Zack...
also congrats on notawheelchair, genuinely very cool.
JerryRigEverything@ZacksJerryRig
BYD can't even see their competition in the rear view mirror anymore.
English
@NovaTwentyOne @TheHumanoidHub Pretty sure that conveyor belt goes all the way back to the start. There is no teleoperation, that's the point of the demo.
English
@TheHumanoidHub It looks like the robot went into reset mode. The positions of the hands went back to default positions. Could be either the tele operator switched out. Or a bug in system cause a reset. More troubling is the package that fell will never be delivered 😭
English
@TheHumanoidHub @jofredrick I think Brett said in post it's a reset when something gets out of sync or faults
English
@jofredrick Could be a system autoreset, triggered by states being too out of sync
English
@davidfowl @DamianEdwards Wait so this isn't the VS Code Agents window-that-was-an-app? I'm confusified.

Been using this for ~2 weeks and it's absolutely changed my workflow and tokenmaxxing 😄.

If you've been wondering what I've been up to, the team and I have been cooking up something new. A new agent-native development environment deeply integrated with the GitHub graph. Not just for writing code, but all of the meta-work as well.
English
@SebAaltonen Looks good but is the fuzzy lens (like a dirty camera) thing an intentional effect? I'm not sure it's doing the scene any favours.
