Without Hugging Face the launch and scaling of stable diffusion & the models that followed would only have been a fraction of what they were. Great and super engaged team who have constantly flown the flag for open source 🤗

At my direction, early this morning federal agents arrested Don Lemon, Trahern Jeen Crews, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lydell Lundy, in connection with the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. More details soon.

For those confused why the US state and Silicon Valley are having a meltdown on twitter today. China released multiple AI models that are 50x more efficient than the best American AI models and made them open source, ruining the AI market

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI. AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

I am very excited about AI, but to go off-script for a minute: I built an app with Codex last week. It was very fun. Then I started asking it for ideas for new features and at least a couple of them were better than I was thinking of. I felt a little useless and it was sad.

Hi! I'm one of the prompt writers that worked on this ad. It's a lot harder than people think! Prompts that my team used include: -make it funny -make it epic AND funny -funnier!!! Please be nice to my team as many of them will be laid off/replaced by AI

It’s patently absurd that Apple isn’t smart enough to make their own AI, yet is somehow capable of ensuring that OpenAI will protect your security & privacy! Apple has no clue what’s actually going on once they hand your data over to OpenAI. They’re selling you down the river.

I see a lot of my TL freaking out about this Here is the reality: Frontier models will one shot just about anything at 10,000 tokens per second in a few years Do you really think we can monitor that? Would need speed limits on the model that it would code around anyway

I would like to publicly commend @sama and @OpenAI for this taking it at face value. It is very clear that strange and perhaps dangerous things are happening and our systems are not ready for this. Models below frontier are competent enough to change lives so lets optimse

imo GDPVal is probably the most important benchmark, it measures the performance of models on real world tasks Big leap in performance here to top it at a great price, congrats to @SpaceXAI team & looking forward to the even bigger releases to come! t.co

No human input, channeling the latent space of the new models. GPT 5.6 Sol is probably the first model I've used that doesn't make mistakes on maths. As we move to Astra & beyond I don't know how humans can keep up on math. Any pure research program is a harness loop away.

As shocking as the Kimi K3 release. Massive performance gain was just with post-training Model is 3x smaller than GLM 5.2 (10x smaller than K3) & works on a MacBook / Spark This is Q1 flagship (Opus 4.6/GPT 5.4) level for < $0.28/m tokens (100x cheaper)

If distillation were all that any of the western open source labs would have have raised billions could distill K3 (soon) or GLM 5.2 and have a sota model for say 32gb or 80gb of vram Who thinks they will
