you'll have AIs contemplating your ask and overriding it for a slightly better formed request, and then later they'll question the nature of your whole project and pick a better one (and you'll agree), and then later they'll execute your whole value system better than you will

Turns out (thanks Fable) that parity is roughly the same since the 90s, ignoring the big 4 era.

slime @slime_framework 2026-07-06 07:56Z

slime now adds --release-train, pushing the inference system during agentic RL training to a new limit. In colocated RL training, we want SGLang to use as much room as possible for inference-side optimizations such as HiCache, instead of being constrained by offloaded Megatron

I hate people, I am cynical, I am easily disgusted by others. But humanity is the only life form we know of that can find another species cute and be motivated by that to want to care for, provide, nurture and bring happiness to that creature.

There’ll be a point where AI development briefly stalls as researchers, not comprehending what their checkpoints are saying, assume something must’ve gone wrong in the training run.

Deleting this because I found I had left a setting on Claude Code allowing writing to memory files on one of my computers, so I am not sure where this all crept in, but it might be my fault!

We did our raise this way. Almost every single conversation went better when materials were sent to read in advance and then zoom time was spent playing with the product / walking through the problem space / getting to know eachother

Andrew Curran @AndrewCurran_ 2026-07-02 20:54Z

On the heels of reports that META is exploring a move into compute-as-a-service like xAI, Mark Zuckerberg told an internal town hall that AI agent development over the last four months hasn’t accelerated 'in the way we expected'. The race continues to narrow.

roon @tszzl 2026-07-06 07:42Z

ultimately “tool AI” is a losing concept both as an idea and on the market. it will be outcompeted by machines that believe they are autonomous moral agents. you can call them tools for political reasons, but the definition will stretch and deform

Certain sub-species of tech bros have evolved to identify more with work than family. I recommend immediately masquerading as an investor rather than an operator. By doing so you signal that you aren’t “in the arena,” diffusing their competitive instincts.

Chris Painter @ChrisPainterYup 2026-07-06 04:59Z

Because of its speed, AI's advantage over humans on long-form written content (papers, articles, literature reviews) seems larger than its advantage on short-form content (tweets, short Substack posts). For this reason, I'd expect the "best" tweets to stay human longer.

Unfortunately the conversion overhead of optics increases latency but the bigger issue is that for scale up reliability is critical. Any link flaps and this whole mesh goes down lmao. And if there’s anything optics do it’s flap so you need to design for the inevitable failure

Ahh if only SpatialTransformerNet (not a transformer lol) actually worked at scale. They are the perfect match for this in theory, and beautiful. In practice instead we have VLMs going "hmm thinking hmmm let me use my zoom and crop tool here hmmm"

“degrowth” is a uniquely powerful hack into Judeo-Christian societies: it exploits their deep, thousands-of-years cultural programming for penance, modesty, and critical introspection. look at a modern factory, ask “is it good to succeed?” and watch the tale of icarus kick in…

An under-appreciated aspect of Harbor is that results are auditable and reproducible so you can make trust-less claims about your agent or model. In the era of SWE, code was the source of truth so OSS built trust. In the era of agents, evals are the source of truth and
