We set out with the goal of understanding what it would take to make human data useful for VLAs like π0.5. We record egocentric human data with wearable cameras, and then include it in a co-training recipe with hand poses serving as actions.

Viral score

Based on absolute engagement — the platform doesn’t expose follower counts here, so large accounts score higher.

From likes, comments.

Why it worked

Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: corporate
Written for: Founders, marketers and operators

Anthropic just dropped an insane new paper. AI models can "fake alignment" - pretending to follow training rules during training but reverting to their original behaviors when deployed! Here's everything you need to know: 🧵

It’s embarrassing but the Jimmy Kimmel debacle actually is important. It was the first real attempt by the Project 2025 movement to flex their muscle against someone who wasn’t a nameless, defenseless nobody and it catastrophically flopped in less than a week.

So much cope about DeepSeek. Not only did they release a great model. they also released a breakthrough training method (R1 Zero) that’s already reproducing. I doubt they lied about training costs, but even if they did they’re still awesome for this great gift to the world.

The Artemis II team did photography training and dry runs for moon pass-by with an inflatable moon. Victor Glover said these practice runs completely changed how he understood importance of the mission. Christina Koch wanted to “tell a story” and share the “awe and grandeur.”

Famously, human learning takes *very little* energy. A toddler learns thousands of words and an entire grammar while eating nothing but raspberries, before learning to read. An LLM needs a nuclear reactor and the entire internet as a training corpus.

First recovery in the ByBit hack. ~$43m (15,000 cmETH) has been clawed back from the hacker. I saw the recovery possibility soon after the hack and SEAL connected me with Mantle/mETH team who made it happen. Huge shoutout to SEAL, Mantle, and mETH teams for their quick action.

We were surprised, and wanted to understand why. What about π0.5 enabled emergent human-robot transfer? We ran an experiment to test if it only appears above a certain scale. Turns out human transfer scales with the amount & diversity of robot data in VLA pre-training!

We discovered an emergent property of VLAs like π0/π0.5/π0.6: as we scale up pre-training, the model learns to align human videos and robot data! This gives us a simple way to leverage human videos. Once π0.5 knows how to control robots, it can naturally learn from human video.
