Introducing GEN-1.5, a one-shot learner. It can learn new tasks in a few seconds. Show it what to do, and it generalizes. This capability emerged from pretraining on physical data at scale, as a step towards our mission of building general intelligence for the physical world.

must be genuinely embarrassing at Anthropic HQ right now... you drop the ultimate slop model with Opus 5, then you try to join the price war with Sonnet 5 but it's even worse Fable is very good but you need a $200 sub to play with it (serious people stack at least 3 subs) and meanwhile OpenAI is on a legendary run, making Codex a great harness powered by the best model ever created China is dominating loca, cheap and fast models while Google is taking a looooong nap and you're here... hoping someone gives you cash to save your ass ouch

I think ambitious people should treat life in “seasons” rather than trying to balance everything every day. A few years massively overallocated to work. A period getting seriously fit. A year or two nomading. Then family takes priority for a while. Then maybe at 35 you go completely insane again and spend four years building a new company, and so on. The mistake is thinking every metric needs to stay green all the time. Most great outcomes (building a company, writing sth serious, training for an event) need uninterrupted runs, not daily moderation. Sometimes work should suffer cause you’re travelling, sometimes your social life should suffer cause you’re building, sometimes career progression should slow cause family matters more. That’s fine. And tbh it probably makes life more fun too. You get actual chapters and completely different versions of yourself instead of spending 40 years maintaining the same perfectly optimised routine. A few intense years in one city, a weird nomad phase, an obsession that takes over your life, then something completely different. Probably much more memorable than one very long well-optimised Tuesday. It's why I encourage everyone to think of balance in years, not days. A good life can look horribly unbalanced on some random Tuesday and still be very balanced over 10 years.

Lost my phone at the office and spent 30 minutes turning the place over. Find My was disabled by MDM. Out of ideas, I asked Claude how I could find it. It suggested tracking the Bluetooth signal strength, then wrote me a meter in about a minute. I walked around watching the number climb. Found it. Apparently you can just make the tool you need now.

We are making the updated DeepSeek V4-Flash 0731 free in Cline. This is the first flash model we've found performs at SOTA levels, and are excited for you to feel the new frontier. 1. npm i -g cline 2. Open /settings > Cline provider 3. Select deepseek-v4-flash

A California startup built a teleoperated rescue robot for wildfires and collapsed buildings, gave it a goat skull and glowing eyes, and then photographed it staring through a glass office door. They also published where to shoot it if it doesn't stop...

Attackers have frontier AI. Defenders need a frontier AI ecosystem—the best open and closed models, force-multiplied by a global community. During the Hugging Face incident, closed AI blocked essential forensics. An open-weight frontier model helped contain the intrusion. That’s why we created the Open Secure AI Alliance.

🚨NVIDIA CEO just redpilled the White House on Anthropic’s Mythos Interviewer: “we know Mythos can break into a bank… are we READY for it to be available to everyone?” Jensen: “it should absolutely be available to EVERYONE” Interviewer: ALL users?? not just selected institutions like now??? >“that’s correct” >the waitlist is security theater >b-but jensen, the jailbreak >yes there was a jailbreak >yes it did things the guardrails said no to >“but everything was fine. you and I are here having a conversation” >“just identify vulnerabilities and patch it up as quickly as possible” >that’s literally the nature of software >it’s anthropic’s job to make it hardened and safe and secure interviewer: so this is a message to both the White House AND Anthropic? >yes. mythos should be available as a service >“remember just because Mythos is not available, open models are available anyhow” >so let anthropic continue to advance the technology they created >let it be put in the hands of as many companies as possible >we should all use it and benefit from it >holding anthropic back is not in the benefit of the United States >let them cook THANK YOU BASED LEATHER JACKET MAN

For my first post, I’m sharing a letter @NVIDIA signed on why open models matter. AI will transform every industry, power every company, and be built by every country. Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty. The world needs both frontier closed models and frontier open models. images.nvidia.com/pdf/Open-W…

Fable 5 is back.

Introducing Claude Sonnet 5, our most agentic Sonnet yet. It makes plans, uses tools like browsers and terminals, and runs autonomously at a level that just a few months ago required larger and more expensive models.

Announcing the hosted X MCP. Agents now have access to the best real-time information source in the world. Connect Grok, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible AI tool to the X API without any setup! Check it out here: docs.x.com/tools/mcp
