Announcing AI IQ Cybersecurity: the most comprehensive collection of cybersecurity benchmarks. …AND… OpenPatcher-S1: a combination open source model that achieves a SOTA result on ExploitBench among all open source models. OpenPatcher-S1 is a combination AI model, meaning it combines multiple AI models together to achieve better results than any model individually, and it is comprised exclusively of open source models. The production of this model was a joint effort between TrustedRouter and AI IQ, spearheaded by @jperla and yours truly, and you can try it on TrustedRouter today. OpenPatcher-S1 achieved a 7/16 on CVE-2024-2887, while Mythos 5 achieved 16/16 and the best individual open model with published results achieved only 3/16, placing OpenPatcher-S1 squarely between the pre-existing open source SOTA for ExploitBench and the overall SOTA set by Mythos 5. OpenPatcher-S1 is being tested on the full suite of ExploitBench tasks and is expected to maintain its open source SOTA results across the complete set of tasks. Additionally, TrustedRouter and AI IQ are collaborating on a new proprietary model called Poseidon that is still in development and has already exceeded OpenPatcher-S1 in results on ExploitBench test runs. Poseidon is still in development but you can try out OpenPatcher-S1 on TrustedRouter today. We support the responsible use of AI cybersecurity products to patch vulnerabilities and make software safer. Many software dev tools surface vulnerabilities to developers in order to help them improve security. And we believe that the world of software is made safer with widespread access to the means to upgrade the security of software, while still limiting offensive capabilities to those below the capabilities of the absolute frontier. Link to AI IQ Cybersecurity and the OpenPatcher-S1 model on TrustedRouter below.

Today I’m launching AI IQ — frontier AI models, scored on the human IQ scale. Instead of endless leaderboard tables, AI IQ shows: • Where models land on the IQ bell curve • How frontier IQ is changing over time • How models compare on IQ and EQ • What intelligence costs in practice GPT-5.5, Claude Opus 4.7, Gemini 3.1, Grok 4.3, Kimi K2.6, Qwen3.6, DeepSeek V4, Muse Spark, and more. Link in the first reply. Curious which chart surprises you most.

Congrats to @sygaldry_tech on their $139M raise! Chad Rigetti founded Rigetti Computing in 2013, took it public in 2022, and is now back—alongside cofounders Idalia Friedson and Michael Keiser—with a new company asking one of AI's biggest questions: how do we power all these data centers? Sygaldry is building servers that combine quantum hardware and classical chips to run AI workloads faster than GPUs, reducing the cost and energy needed to run increasingly large models. fortune.com/2026/04/14/exclu…

We just raised a $20M seed round to build the largest bank in the world. Kontigo crossed $30M in annual revenue, $1B in payment volume, and 1M users in under 12 months, with a team of six engineers and one designer. We are the fastest-growing stablecoin neobank in the world. Any individual or business on earth can: - Earn 10% yield on their digital dollars. - Get a stablecoin card with bitcoin cashback. - Activate a USDT credit line. - Invest in tokenized U.S. stocks. - Open an international account for free. This is a real-world use case of crypto. No casinos, no jargon, just normal people who don’t even know what USDC or USDT is. We’re, once and for all, democratizing access to basic finance and giving 4.8 billion people the ability to hold a stable currency (USDC) alongside a wealth creator (BTC). The equation is simple: they invest in BTC, they hold USDC, and they spend in local stablecoins. More than a thousand businesses and a million users are already doing this. They connect their local bank, card, or payment method and start moving funds globally, instantly, and without limits. No matter the corridor. U.S. ↔ LatAm, LatAm ↔ Asia, Asia ↔ Europe, U.S. ↔ Africa, Europe ↔ LatAm. We’ve them all. Just imagine how much faster Revolut would’ve grown if they didn’t have to get individual banking licenses in each of the 50 countries they’ve launched in. That’s @kontigo_app You simply can’t outcompete the fact that our backend, database, and infrastructure run on the freaking blockchain: 24/7, at a fraction of the cost, open, permissionless. It’s a whole new game, different incentives, and a new technological paradigm. Thanks to all the early supporters! We’re proud to partner with the best: @t_blom & @harjtaggar from @ycombinator ; @hthieblot & @FurqanR from @fdotinc ; @davefontenot from @hf0 ; @HoolieG from @cbventures & @jessepollak from @base ; Saurabh and Grace from DST ; also @GoodwaterCap @Soma_Capital @pioneer_fund @transposevc @alumniventures @m_franceschetti @EvanWeb3 @metavarce @davecyen Tom Brown, Oliver Jung, Ricardo Schäfer, Andrej Henkler, Yi Shi, Philippe Teixeira.

We just raised $60 million for Blueprint. To bring my longevity protocol to you. Our society has made us unwell…metabolically, mentally, spiritually. We’re addicted. Social media, porn, nicotine, junk food, fast food, smartphones, streaming, energy drinks, and gambling. Each perfectly engineered to keep us in their grip. Years ago, I was owned by these systems. They wrecked me, and my health. I wish there had been someone in my life helping me break free. Blueprint will be that system. Collectively, we will claw our power back. Blueprint will take better care of people than they can themselves. Better than the healthcare system does. Better than our societal norms allow. We will be your home for health. Blueprint will help you feel clear-headed and vibrant. You will become more jacked and beautiful with our presence in your life. There’s nothing better than feeling your best. Some of the world’s most powerful people are backing Blueprint. Talent are pivoting their careers to join our team. They rightly see that Blueprint is in the right place, at the right time, for the global emergence of the new macro trend of health, anti-aging and Don’t Die. In this post I’ll cover: + Who’s investing + What Blueprint will be + Who’s joining + Open positions + How to get early access The next era of human is here. [WHO’S INVESTING] This remarkable group of people are Blueprint investors. They are backing the next great frontier: human longevity. + Akshay Bd + Alex Hormozi + Amanda Cassatt + Andrej Karpathy + Ari Emanuel + Balaji Srinivasan + Bill Lee + Brad Keywell + Brian & Veronica Grazer + Bryan Meehan + Cameron Winklevoss + Carter Reum + Chris Hollod + Dan Manges + Dave Morin + Don Wilson + Drew Houston + Emmett Shear + Eric Demuth + Fareed Adib + Generational Family Office + Jason Fried + Jay Shetty + Joe Gebbia + Joe Lonsdale + John Carmack + Joshua Kushner + Kamal Ravikant + Karim Beguir + Kevin Hartz + Kim Kardashian + Kyle Widrick + Logan Paul + Michael Cao + Michael Kives + Naval Ravikant + NIV + Olaf Carlson-Wee + Paris Hilton + Pippa Lamb + Saquon Barkley + Ken Katz + Seth Bannon + Shayne Coplan + Steve Aoki + Steven Bartlett + Suna Said + Tyler Winklevoss + Winnie Liu + Wojciech Zaremba [TEAM] Defeating death would be humanity’s greatest accomplishment. Big things are happening right now in our small corner of the galaxy. We see the consequence of this moment and are working to positively influence the future of intelligent existence. We believe that product is philosophy and companies can influence the world. Join if you love to work insanely hard and also get eight hours of sleep. Joining our team as CEO is Gyre Renwick. He was previously President of Modern Health and before that an executive at Google Health and Lyft Healthcare. Gyre builds complex health systems into growth engines. In this next chapter, I am doubling down on Blueprint and Don’t Die. I’m all in. Gyre will run the business and I will focus on vision, strategy, and birthing Don’t Die into the world. Blueprint is the practical manifestation of Don’t Die. They are the same thing. I will continue to juggle many full-time jobs: rejuvenation athlete, Blueprint vision, leading the Don’t Die moral philosophy and ideology, building a global community, and content creation. Ultimately, both Blueprint & Don’t Die ladder up to the same thing, answering the question: ‘what does humanity do as we give birth to super intelligence?’. Kate Tolo (co-founder), Gyre, and I will be in lockstep building this mission together. Roles we are filling now: + Chief Technology Officer + Chief Product Officer + Chief Medical Officer + Chief Marketing Officer + Engineers of all types + See all open roles Refer your most talented friends. If you don’t see a job fit, still email us. [BLUEPRINT VISION] We’re making my protocol accessible to everyone. To replicate everything including the measurements, protocols, therapies - and make it easy and accessible for others to do in a community. For your family and friends to do this too. Many think that the world’s most powerful people have their health figured out. The truth is, most everyone is floundering. Luxury concierge services often do little for wealthy people as the biggest gains are not in expensive therapies but daily habits. We will help you build life foundations, starting with the basics and graduating to advanced therapies. Our goal is to be more effective in helping you achieve your health goals than any health system or concierge in the world. Blueprint will build around: + your preferences + your budget + your preexisting conditions + your prior results + your prescriptions + your level of effort It’s health within context. I built Blueprint to solve my own problem. My body and mind were broken, and I didn’t know who to trust to help me fix it. Everyone disagreed with everyone else. I found sanity in gathering a team of doctors and building a protocol based upon robust measurement and scientific evidence. It’s a methodical process that produces better outcomes and results in fewer mistakes and wasted time. After my team and I built a protocol for me, my friends and family asked if they could get access too.  Then their friends and family asked and I said yes again. The circle kept on expanding until we stumbled into Blueprint becoming a company. We will tell you to do less. Most good health can be achieved with very little effort. It’s the systems, infrastructure, knowledge, and piecing through the noise that is hard. Blueprint is Bryan Johnson’s protocol, for everyone. What this will practically mean: + Blood draws + Food delivery + GLP-1s + Rx prescriptions + Free protocols + Toxin testing + At-home tests + Skin care & hair care + Nutrition & supplementation + Advanced therapies And your AI health companion will make it simple. I like to call this my Autonomous Self. In the same way you put in an address and digital navigation tells you the best way to get there, Blueprint is navigation to vibrance. Our goal is to remove the thinking and hassle for you so that you can focus on building durable life habits and achieve the best health of your life. I love thinking about what the future will say about us. When I think from the perspective of those who exist in the year 2500, I think they’ll observe that the 2020s and 2030s was the time when humans figured out that they were the first generation who wouldn’t die. Early access below. What an amazing opportunity. Let’s do this together. Bryan
