NEW: China launches its first humanoid robot soccer league in Beijing.
This is way more entertaining than regular soccer.
The AI-controlled robots were supplied by Booster Robotics for the tournament and have the skills of 5 to 6 year old children.
Robots were seen getting carried off the field on stretchers after falling over.
Booster Robotics founder Cheng Hao says the robots' abilities will exponentially increase over time and will eventually challenge adult teams.
"We chose the football scenario for robot competition primarily for two reasons: first, to encourage students to apply their algorithmic skills to real-world robotics," Cheng said.
"Second, to showcase the robots' ability to walk autonomously and stably, withstand collisions, and demonstrate higher levels of intelligence and safety."

Definitely keep an eye on this product!
A New CodeLLM Release Daily
We release a new build almost everyday!
We now have
- autocomplete
- multi file edit
- chat with code base
- deepseek, o1 and all the best coding models
The only thing missing is agentic capabilities that should launch on Monday and get us to SOTA for AI code editors
That’s when the real fun begins… we have some insanely cool stuff planned 🔥❤️
A lot of truth here.
What's really going on in machine learning? Just finished a deep dive using (new) minimal models. Seems like ML is basically about fitting together lumps of computational irreducibility ... with important potential implications for science of ML, and future tech...

Paul Barton plays classical music to a rescued elephant name Mongkol.
The aging elephant had been saved from a life of captivity with a logging company, who used his immense size and strength for hauling trees.
Mongkol always cries to this passage.

Good article. Worth thinking about now - you might be able to help create one of these technologies!
Happy New Year! Sure, it's 2020... but what might life in the *2030s* look like, thanks to advances in tech and more?

Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while.
—Steve Jobs
Good thread!
First: kudos to @Cloudflare for transparency here and throughout their incident.
Next: some thoughts on safety in distributed systems like this. (I don’t know how CF does it, so don’t take this as criticism of their practices, merely some musings from similar experiences) 1/

Excellent thread on saving $ on AWS bills.
I realized I've never done a tweetstorm on how to save money on your @awscloud bill. This will not be comprehensive in the least, it's nuanced and site specific. Here we go.
