I have a major result to share.
I’ve found conclusive forensic evidence that the top 4 Chinese AI labs—DeepSeek, Moonshot, MiniMax and Ant Group—have built their newest models on NVIDIA’s most advanced Blackwell chips, which are barred from export to China.
This sounds insane, but I discovered that almost every AI model carries a hidden signature of the GPU that trained it. When a model is first set up, the starting values of its weights are laid out in a pattern that depends on the exact GPU. Each combination of GPU and seed number produces a unique pattern—a sort of fingerprint of the hardware used to create the model. Traces of that pattern survive training into the published model.
Again, this evidence isn’t based on any insider information or leaking. It’s based on a forensic analysis of the model weights released by the companies themselves.
I searched more than six trillion combinations of chip layout and seed number and matched them to open-weights models. In doing so, I found conclusive evidence that six Chinese AI models—including DeepSeek-V4-Pro, Kimi K3, and MiniMax-M3—were initialized on NVIDIA Blackwell systems. Four of the models match Grace Blackwell, the GB200 and GB300 parts in NVIDIA’s flagship liquid-cooled rack-scale systems.
I then verified these results on real hardware. Running unmodified PyTorch with the seeds I’d recovered, a Blackwell B300 reproduced DeepSeek-V4-Flash’s untouched starting weights bit for bit, and a rented GB200 reproduced Kimi K3’s to a correlation of 0.999995. A Hopper H100 reproduced none of DeepSeek-V4-Flash’s, and changing the seed by one broke the match. (DeepSeek’s seed is 953049583 by the way.) The method also was verified to match 24 known open-weights models to the hardware that developers said they used.
It is exceedingly unlikely that these results are a coincidence. Across six trillion combinations, the best accidental match should reach only about 8 sigma (i.e., eight standard deviations above what random chance would produce). The real matches range from 49 to 1,385 sigma, and even the weakest single test hits 20.
These were data-center-scale training runs. With some analysis of release schedules and model details, I estimate that the largest, Kimi K3 and DeepSeek-V4-Pro, used 2,000 to 3,000 Blackwell GPUs each. Clusters of this size cost on the order of $150 to $200 million each to buy, and across these labs alone would add up to more than half a billion dollars of export-controlled GPUs, not counting experimental compute or otherwise. It’s quite likely that we see multi-billion dollar expenditure on export-controlled GPUs.
I am highly confident in this result, and it has been independently verified by senior researchers at OpenAI and Anthropic. You can read the full report at unemploymentlabs.com/checkpo….
There is much more I’ve identified about these models through other forms of checkpoint forensics like this, and will have more to share soon.

It feels like removing a dagger from my leg.
Headache. Dysphoria. Flatness. Hearing phantom iPhone dings in my sleep.
Days 1-3 were more of a rush. I felt light and free.
On day 4, the withdrawals began. I've never had to kick something like this before.
Screens are a legit addiction.
I'm curious to see if the month 6 PET scan shows enhanced metabolism in regions that improve in drug addicts who quit like the thalamus, frontal cortex, and striatum (reward circuit).
There are no PET studies of people quitting screens, so Dr. Eber and I are breaking new ground.
Image attached is baseline PET (F18 tracer). That's one of a few scans I'm tracking.

We’ve raised $1.3M from YC & Afore Capital so you never have to type or speak again.
Typing is slow. Talking into your computer is awkward. Subvocal fixes both
Our glasses give you the speed of speech without you making a sound or touching a keyboard.
It tracks your internal speech muscles with non-contact sensing and decodes silent, almost invisible mouthing into text at more than 200 words/min.

there are probably fewer than 500M conscious people on earth that understand self agency to its core. everyone else is just a derivative of a narrative and their lives are mostly fake. literal sub agents just doing stuff. Will isn’t wrong in terms of ‘actual people’ on earth vs slop consumers willing to do what the narrative constructors say they should

A college kid built a drone in his dorm room that flies 491 mph. That's close to how fast the Southwest flight you took last Thanksgiving was cruising.
Russia and Ukraine have spent the last two years racing to build faster drones, and he just passed every single one of them for about $13,000.
Here's why speed matters so much over there. Russia's original Shahed attack drone putters along at about 115 mph, with an engine loud enough that Ukrainians nicknamed it the moped. Firing a $4 million Patriot missile at one makes zero sense, so Ukraine started building cheap little hunter drones to chase them down. The Sting costs around $2,500. By February it had taken out more than 3,900 Shaheds by itself, and in January hunter drones made about 70% of Ukraine's Shahed kills.
The catch is you can only hunt what you can catch.
So Russia started putting jet engines on them. The Geran-3 does around 185 to 230 mph. The Geran-4, flying since May, cruises at 250 to 310. The Geran-5 tops out near 375 mph and is pretty much a mini cruise missile. Ukrainian reporting says Russia wants half its Shahed production to be jets, and every bump in speed knocks more of Ukraine's cheap hunters out of the game.
Ukraine's drone makers have been scrambling to keep up ever since. One showed off a 258 mph interceptor in September. A German-Ukrainian joint venture is quoting 298. This month a German defense startup worth over a billion dollars got an experimental drone to 483 mph for a fraction of a second, and they still can't call it a record because the return run broke.
Then there's Tomas. He found a broken jet turbine at Georgia Tech that had been sitting in pieces for five years, got it running, then cold-emailed his way into sponsors for a new engine. What he built is an 11-pound carbon-fiber delta wing he laid up by hand in molds he cut himself, with a JetCat turbojet in the back. He says it hit 491 mph carrying 2.6 pounds, can hold that speed for 4 minutes, and covers 31 miles at full throttle.
The Guinness record for a jet-powered RC plane has been 465 mph since 2017. If his numbers hold up under official timing, a college student beat it by 26 mph with cargo on board.
Russia and Ukraine have been pushing this number up a few dozen mph at a time for two years. The fastest one I can find right now got launched off a rail bolted behind a silver hatchback.

It’s worthwhile to play through in your mind the kinds of motivated reasoning and self-deception that might have led academics to work on this project.
It’ll help you understand better what’s going on at AGI companies.
Purdue University's IDEAS Lab built an autonomous drone that tracks runners through dense forests completely without GPS or cloud networks.
By running 3D LiDAR mapping and obstacle-avoidance AI entirely on-chip, it can weave under tree canopies and predict target movement through blind spots in real time.
Massive implications for next-gen search & rescue and edge AI.
Everything will get better when GTA VI comes out in November

Why is anyone surprised? How many times have you gone out to a government website and got messages about expired security certificates? The government has your most sensitive information things like your DOB and SSN and in many cases is running outdated software and unpatched operating systems. The vulnerability is everywhere.
