We’ve developed the world’s most complete megakernel framework. It can perform entire training runs, serve inference, play video games, and even do all three simultaneously in a single kernel.

Every so often, you meet a team that changes your expectations of what’s possible. Ben, Asher, Aidan, and the team at @flappyairplanes are exactly that. They have brought together a very special group of people (with an average age of 24!) to go after one of the most important challenges in AI: reimagining how machines learn and how we unlock the full potential of our compute. Proud to partner with this exceptional team as they fundamentally change how intelligence gets built.
Hello again, it's been a while. We're writing to let you know that we have raised quite a lot more money. We're letting you know because we are on the lookout to hire smart people and this will help us do that. See you again when we have a product or have raised more money!

Every time I talk to @breeves08 and @velvetatom, I realize that they are the best in the business and we have to get them maximally involved. They have been amazing partners since the seed, and we could not be more excited to have them colead the Series A. Thanks to the whole @Lux_Capital team and so psyched for what's to come!

big efficiency breakthroughs usually drive waves of new demand. robotics, trading, scientific discovery, consumer applications, lower latency inference, generative UI---efficiency gains will help unlock all of these things the stuff flappy is working on is good for everyone :)
Every neocloud should be watching this. What happens when the useful compute you can squeeze out of a GPU improves faster than the hardware itself? Billions in GPU-backed financing depend on assumptions about future rental rates and residual values. Software breakthroughs could make those assumptions obsolete overnight.

We’ve spent the past year developing new primitives for GPUs. We believe this enables new algorithms to change how machines learn, open new markets, and dramatically reshape AI’s cost structure. We have raised a $1 billion Series A, co-led by Index and Lux.

An original "seed" investor... sorry sorry i know i know.
Congrats, Flappy, on your Series A and your deep, full-stack approach to improving modern AI! Blending systems thinking with deep AI expertise already seems to be creating architectural elegance that will accelerate AI progress and improve its efficiency.

Don’t see how you can reason with this kind of mind. Intolerant, hate-filled, echo chamber.
Interesting conversation between a Jewish girl and an Iraqi Kurd:

"Ghost Shark has teeth now." - @PatConroy1, Australia's Minister for Defence Industry. The @ausgov and @Australian_Navy confirmed the payloads that our Ghost Shark extra-large autonomous submarine carries: sea mines, logistics caches, and air-launched effects for ISR and strike. Ghost Sharks are rolling off the production line. Payload testing is active.

Centrist Democrats want to cast the mayor as a chastened progressive. But his record reveals a man who compromises when forced and pushes left when the power is his to wield, writes Liel Leibovitz. thefp.com/p/mamdani-the-mode…
