@ar280404 Hey Armaan! I hope you’re doing well! I’m looking for tips on the best ways to find a co-founder. I’d really appreciate any suggestions you might have. Thanks a ton! anything, any app, or something like that :)

@Ishan_Ahlu @babugi28 working on robot sim and learning pipelines, lets connect and congrats

Life Update: Excited to share that I'm joining Human Archive as an early Research Eng, working on multimodal sensing and sensor fusion for embodied AI and robotics. Shout out to @babugi28 and the team for the opportunity. Excited to build 🚀🚀
If your in SF working on robotics, sensing, policies, or robotics data, please let me know would love to connect!

Big personal news:
I moved to SF to do robotics!
I am joining @SkildAI to work on the Newton physics engine
If you want to grab a coffee and talk about computer stuff, let me know!

I’ll be in the Bay Area this summer, joining @nvidia GEAR (Generalist Embodied Agent Research) as a research intern! Feel free to reach out if you’d like to grab coffee and chat about robot learning, embodied AI, or just for fun :)

Reading @drfeifei's essay on world models really got me interested in the topic. So I decided to try training a small JEPA model. With a 2M parameter world model and an MPC controller, I've been able to get a robot arm to pick things up. More to come!

i remember notebooklm was super exciting when it first came out. mostly for the ai podcast thing.
does anyone use that? or any of its other features? seems like codex/claude cowork/even openclaw would be better for the rest of the stuff they do no?
NotebookLM@NotebookLM
Introducing a more powerful NotebookLM 🚀 Massive upgrades deliver agentic capabilities in chat, more advanced reasoning, and a suite of new output formats. Tackling complex, multi-step research problems has never been easier. Rolling out now to Google AI Ultra subscribers.

Fun fact, every new hire at @GeneralistAI gets a completely new task working in their 1st week as an onboarding project. For example, here's @kylieyying and @ben_pekarek pouring a drink & doing a magic trick.
Ping me if you want to come see some robots irl!

We are also hiring on many fronts across research, technical infrastructure, partnerships, and several others. We are incredibly proud of our team. If you'd like to chat about joining, let us know! generalistai.com/careers

We’re going all in on World Models.
Today we’re launching the 1X World Model Lab.
The bet is simple:
You can’t fine-tune your way to AGI.
And you definitely can’t fine-tune your way to robots that can operate in the physical world.
General-purpose humanoids need models that understand space, motion, objects, causality, affordances, physics, and action before they ever see a specific task.
The frontier is not better VLA wrappers.
The frontier is embodied world models.
The 1X World Model Lab will focus on large-scale embodied world model pretraining: building the most generalizable foundation model for humanoid robots from the ground up.
The next frontier in AI requires scaling:
web-scale media + egocentric human videos + sim + dexterous remote operated robot data + on-policy NEO data → real-world deployment for robot data collection and RL → abundance of data → physical AI
The robot collects data.
The model gets better.
The robot gets better.
Repeat.
To lead this, we brought in one of the best for the mission: @_sam_sinha_ , as Head of World Models.
Sam was a founding research scientist at Luma AI and has been at the frontier of scaling multimodal generative video models his whole career.
If you’re the best in the world at large-scale pretraining, video models, robotics, RL, infra, or data — and you want your models to move atoms, not just pixels — join us.
Send background + evidence of exceptional ability to:
wmlab@1x.tech
We’re building the model that makes autonomous labor real.

agentplan.dev have been using it 8+ hours daily for the last few days
can’t wait to show some of the workflows that I use when researching
Janani Prasad@jananiprasad24
do your agent plans suck? ✍🏻 agentplan.dev makes planning lightweight and collaborative your code stays local. download mac app today! it’s free 😁
