So much alpha in systems. Really exciting to see flappy squeeze every last FLOP out of hardware.
Replying to @flappyairplanes
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.

The reason that nothing ever happens is that base rates dominate. Everything is always happening but you just don't notice it.

Absurd world we live in
Inspired by Nick Cammarata’s interpretability essay “Neural Networks Are Already Clean”, I turned a couple of its ideas into speedups for pretraining without backpropagation. Still in the works. 2.3x speedup, cool teapawt.net/industriaalist/status/…

LLMs are lucky: they get to look back on what they said and see the thinking traces. We have to regenerate them with drift from what we were originally thinking.

Models being good at writing is key for humans to stay in the loop. Also it's so much fun to play with
Say hello to Echo, the best writing model at style imitation. Echo beats frontier models at writing tasks ranging from fiction to technical explanations, despite costing less than $5K to train.

Hello SF, I'm Varun! @RamV2003 and I just moved here for YC F26 with the goal of getting all agent work to log time execution via swarms. Would love to connect with those building super ambitious infrastructure and crazy agent setups. If you have any wild projects, please send them my way!

The thing about taste is that everyone thinks they have good taste. Your poor taste is what's making you think you have good taste.

new account + reach currently limited to people who can see my monitor. hi. real news anyway: @neuralink summer 2027 internships are open. tell us about your three sickest projects. "n/a" is not a project. good luck neuralink.com/careers/

Worth reading Superintelligence by Bostrom. We need to be super careful with AI. Potentially more dangerous than nukes.

humans being removed from the decision loop is already happening because the models are so incomprehensible. if this isn't solved we'll be left behind
are u able to prompt the model into communicating more clearly with you? it's killing me today
