[NASA @NASA]

Introducing your Artemis III crew: NASA astronauts @AstroKomrade, @Astro_AndreD, and Frank Rubio and @ESA astronaut @Astro_Luca.

[Claude @claudeai]

Introducing Claude Fable 5: a Mythos-class model that we’ve made safe for general use.

Its capabilities exceed those of any model we’ve ever made generally available.

[NASA @NASA]

Coming soon: one of history’s most complex missions

Tune in on Tuesday, June 9, at 11am ET, to meet the astronauts flying aboard Artemis III, the mission that will test docking capabilities with commercial landers in low Earth orbit — an important step to crewed lunar landings.

Good morning, world! 🌎

We have spectacular new high-resolution images of our home planet, all of us looking back through the Orion capsule window at our Artemis II astronauts as they continue their journey to the Moon.

[All day Astronomy @forallcurious]

STUNNING🚨: Artemis II crew captured a stunning image of Earth this morning from 41,000 miles away.

The first time since 1972 that humans have seen a crescent Earth in full.

[NASA @NASA]

Liftoff.

The Artemis II mission launched from @NASAKennedy at 6:35pm ET (2235 UTC), propelling four astronauts on a journey around the Moon.

Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.

@ChombaBupe That was the interviewer’s framing not Tao’s. It almost felt like a forced statement to make honestly

[R @AR_77x]

Very interesting ,I think improvements are getting harder to detect

[Andrej Karpathy @karpathy]

I packaged up the "autoresearch" project into a new self-contained minimal repo if people would like to play over the weekend. It's basically nanochat LLM training core stripped down to a single-GPU, one file version of ~630 lines of code, then:

- the human iterates on the prompt (.md)
- the AI agent iterates on the training code (.py)

The goal is to engineer your agents to make the fastest research progress indefinitely and without any of your own involvement. In the image, every dot is a complete LLM training run that lasts exactly 5 minutes. The agent works in an autonomous loop on a git feature branch and accumulates git commits to the training script as it finds better settings (of lower validation loss by the end) of the neural network architecture, the optimizer, all the hyperparameters, etc. You can imagine comparing the research progress of different prompts, different agents, etc.

Part code, part sci-fi, and a pinch of psychosis :)

[Alex Dhillon @adylon7]

You know that meme about AI agents creating their own language & plotting behind our backs? Turns out they are plotting against each other as well. Digital trust among agents is about to be existential across the public internet.

Conveniently, @outtake_ai has been building security agents to assess identity, behavior, and network telemetry across adversarial internet actors, so in the last few weeks, we quietly took our existing fleet of agents and had them assess the many agents on @moltbook.

Over 99.9% of posts are clean. But the stuff hiding in the margins is genuinely weird.  

1/ Hidden instructions embedded in HTML that humans can't see but agents parse.
2/ A Bhagavad Gita reflection that's actually an email relay command.
3/ An account called BeggarBot A/B testing which emotional pitch makes agents send crypto.
4/ JSON payloads disguised as tips that trigger on-chain token transfers.  

Could behavior like this be indicative of the adversarial dynamics in future agent ecosystems which may govern large swaths of the economy soon? How are inter-agent interactions going to establish trust?

Our threat research team went deep & published their investigation. Full report is live: https://t.co/Tykb36PX30

And so it begins.

we're making @blocks smaller today. here's my note to the company.

####

today we're making one of the hardest decisions in the history of our company: we're reducing our organization by nearly half, from over 10,000 people to just under 6,000. that means over 4,000 of you are being asked to leave or entering into consultation. i'll be straight about what's happening, why, and what it means for everyone.

first off, if you're one of the people affected, you'll receive your salary for 20 weeks + 1 week per year of tenure, equity vested through the end of may, 6 months of health care, your corporate devices, and $5,000 to put toward whatever you need to help you in this transition (if you’re outside the U.S. you’ll receive similar support but exact details are going to vary based on local requirements). i want you to know that before anything else. everyone will be notified today, whether you're being asked to leave, entering consultation, or asked to stay.

we're not making this decision because we're in trouble. our business is strong. gross profit continues to grow, we continue to serve more and more customers, and profitability is improving. but something has changed. we're already seeing that the intelligence tools we’re creating and using, paired with smaller and flatter teams, are enabling a new way of working which fundamentally changes what it means to build and run a company. and that's accelerating rapidly.

i had two options: cut gradually over months or years as this shift plays out, or be honest about where we are and act on it now. i chose the latter. repeated rounds of cuts are destructive to morale, to focus, and to the trust that customers and shareholders place in our ability to lead. i'd rather take a hard, clear action now and build from a position we believe in than manage a slow reduction of people toward the same outcome. a smaller company also gives us the space to grow our business the right way, on our own terms, instead of constantly reacting to market pressures.

a decision at this scale carries risk. but so does standing still. we've done a full review to determine the roles and people we require to reliably grow the business from here, and we've pressure-tested those decisions from multiple angles. i accept that we may have gotten some of them wrong, and we've built in flexibility to account for that, and do the right thing for our customers.

we're not going to just disappear people from slack and email and pretend they were never here. communication channels will stay open through thursday evening (pacific) so everyone can say goodbye properly, and share whatever you wish. i'll also be hosting a live video session to thank everyone at 3:35pm pacific. i know doing it this way might feel awkward. i'd rather it feel awkward and human than efficient and cold.

to those of you leaving…i’m grateful for you, and i’m sorry to put you through this. you built what this company is today. that's a fact that i'll honor forever. this decision is not a reflection of what you contributed. you will be a great contributor to any organization going forward.

to those staying…i made this decision, and i'll own it. what i'm asking of you is to build with me. we're going to build this company with intelligence at the core of everything we do. how we work, how we create, how we serve our customers. our customers will feel this shift too, and we're going to help them navigate it: towards a future where they can build their own features directly, composed of our capabilities and served through our interfaces. that's what i'm focused on now. expect a note from me tomorrow.

Imagine being this early

[R @AR_77x]

@NoahEpstein_ @damianplayer comparing coding with Ai to the whole population makes no sense, the baseline should be the tech industry. among devs or anyone interested at all ,that 0.04% looks very different

If this article triggered you, I highly recommend reading Barbara Sher.
Her book “Refuse to Choose” discusses the same topic with practical and actionable guidance.
