Prof. Donald Knuth opened his new paper with "Shock! Shock!"
Claude Opus 4.6 had just solved an open problem he'd been working on for weeks — a graph decomposition conjecture from The Art of Computer Programming.
He named the paper "Claude's Cycles."
31 explorations. ~1 hour. Knuth read the output, wrote the formal proof, and closed with: "It seems I'll have to revise my opinions about generative AI one of these days."
The man who wrote the bible of computer science just said that. In a paper named after an AI.

Great work again by Microsoft Research on balanced ternary for AI applications.

Tenk deg å lage setningar med berre to bokstavar. Forskar Steven Bos meiner å bevise at tida er inne for at datamaskiner kan og bør gå over til det trinære alfabetet, altså bort frå berre 1 og 0 usn.no/forskning/doktorgrads…

USB 4.2 standard uses ternary signals (PAM-3). Non-binary signalling is an ongoing and radical shift. PCI Express 6.0 uses quaternary signals (PAM-4). Changing
radix from binary to ternary gives ~60% bandwidth improvements.

Recently penta-level cell (5-bits/cell) SSD's were announced. At this point the interface is becoming a hassle as logic remains for the time being, binary.

With emerging devices like memristors, multi-threshold CNTFET and others technologies shown on the industry roadmap things look wild for MVL despite not being named. It is a slow return to analog again, but now using the best parts of the digital world.

Recreated #Tetris in #AugmentedReality during my commute on the train to and from work yesterday using #chatgpt4
Total development time: 1 hour ⏱️ Here's the breakdown:
54 min: Game Logic (this was a back and forth dialogue in which gpt4 planned out the best approach to take and wrote 100% of the game logic)
6 min: Game Aesthetics (generated a neon grid texture from midjourney and applied to an <a-plane> in the scene)

🎉 GPT-4 is out!!
- 📈 it is incredible
- 👀 it is multimodal (can see)
- 😮 it is on trend w.r.t. scaling laws
- 🔥 it is deployed on ChatGPT Plus: chat.openai.com
- 📺 watch the developer demo livestream at 1pm: youtube.com/live/outcGtbnMuQ…

Very cool work from Google!!! – at San Mateo, CA
What happens when we train the largest vision-language model and add in robot experiences?
The result is PaLM-E 🌴🤖, a 562-billion parameter, general-purpose, embodied visual-language generalist - across robotics, vision, and language.
