autonomous robot driving through the field at night. no chemicals. no pesticides. just UV light killing pathogens and pests while everyone sleeps. this is @tricrobotics.

this is what chemical-free pest control looks like at scale.

We successfully predicted emotion from brain activity, achieving >2x performance to the previous state of the art.

Alljoined collected a dataset of 3,408 videos paired with EEG data across 24 participants, covering happy, sad, fear, anger, disgust, and neutral emotion.

We’re launching @JudgmentLabs today and announcing $32M in funding.

As AI agents take on more of the work that creates economic value, they generate massive amounts of production data: the clearest record of how they behave with users, software, and the real world.

Judgment builds infrastructure for improving AI agents from production data.

On April 30th, the Department of Energy's Idaho Operations Office (DOE-ID) approved the Documented Safety Analysis (DSA) for the Aalo-X Critical Test Reactor, advancing Aalo into its final pre-operations phase, the Operational Readiness Review.

The DSA is the authoritative safety basis for a DOE nuclear facility. It demonstrates that a facility can be operated safely across its full range of normal, off-normal, and accident conditions.

In the Aalo-X Critical Test Reactor, Aalo will test its full-scale nuclear core. The reactor contains nuclear fuel, moderator, control rod drive mechanisms, shielding, and instrumentation systems that are direct analogs of what will operate in the 10 MWe Aalo-X reactor being built next door.

To further the CTR as an on-ramp to commercial deployment, no components used to achieve this milestone were repurposed:

- Fuel assemblies were designed and assembled in-house.
- The entirely new, compliant reactor facility was completed in a matter of months.
- The commercial fuel supply chain was excercised from mining through on-site uranium delivery.
- The reactor was designed and built modularly in-house and transported on commercial trucks to Idaho.
- The reactor was built to NQA-1, the standard for commercial reactor quality, rather than ANS 15.8, which governs prototype reactors.

A regulatory milestone at this level is the output of many people doing difficult, detailed work over a long period. We want to thank DOE leadership and the review staff who executed the DOE-STD-1271 framework, along with the modernized NE orders. We also want to give a huge thank you to the team at Aalo who carried out this work, along with our partners and advisors.

The final phase before criticality is the DOE-led Readiness Review, in which DOE verifies that the people, facility, and programs can be cleared to operate as documented.

Today’s DSA milestone proves our team’s execution discipline, and we are looking forward to next steps.

Onward to criticality.

Instead of a Series Seed pitch deck, we showed this video to @foundersfund @BainCapVC and @LongJourneyVC and they invested $4.5 million in us a few weeks later. This was the first data center that @ChaseLochmiller and I ever built way back in 2018 when we founded @CrusoeAI with a crazy dream to mine bitcoin with wasted gas across the oilfields of America. We’ve come a long way, but the roots of energy-first, vertically-integrated digital infrastructure started here in NE Wyoming with a <0.5MW deployment and geosynchronous satellite internet.

Big news today at @CrusoeAI. We are welcoming former @MongoDB COO/CFO Michael Gordon as our new COO and CFO. Michael’s operational discipline and experience scaling MongoDB from a private company to a public giant are exactly what we need to turn our momentum into durable scale.
