Comms at @AsteraLabs. Talk to me about responsible AI, #kpop, and podcasting. Previously @AWScloud @ASAPP @PartnershipAI.

@highyieldYT @IanCutress Especially considering the differentiated impact the silicon has across all their products. But the comms team is a consumer-lifestyle focused one first, opting to talk about the *how* behind the products less from what I can tell.

Astera Labs showcases 320-lane PCIe 6.0 switch for vendor-agnostic scaling in data centers — up to 80 accelerators can be scaled up using PCIe alone https://t.co/25HwX2OzsW

Had a great chat at @AsteraLabs booth today! Jignesh explained so much to us. These other co-conspirators were great to hang with!

Cameraman is he who shall not be named. If you’re on X you know him.

On the ableton connection, it seems like a missed opportunity to use LLMs for midi chord progression or melody composition.

More connectors launching today: Adobe Creative Cloud, Ableton, Splice, Canva Affinity, SketchUp, and Resolume.

We've also joined the Blender Development Fund as a patron to support open-source development of the software.

@PatrickMoorhead Wait, you mean to tell me you weren’t actually doing each of these things? I thought MoorInsights analysts always piloted helicopters between client briefings.

@byJuliaLove Congrats!

The real sign of AI writing is not superficial stuff like “It’s not X—it’s Y”. It’s the hollowness. Polished writing but relatively mundane ideas. The giveaway is that you’re less impressed when you read it the second time. With good writing, it should be the other way around.

I’m not sure this is inherently about AI. It’s more about the fact that people tend to turn to AI when they don’t have much to say.

Reading text that has the syntactic smell of AI is mildly annoying, but when I read hollow writing I feel the writer is wasting my time, which is much more frustrating. So don’t do it. People are unlikely to respond to your email or subscribe to your newsletter or whatever you’re trying to get them to do. And they’ll probably remember that you betrayed their trust as a reader.

@haydenfield Starting or remaining competitive w/ a first-party model lab isn’t easy. It’ll be interesting to see how this shakes out for Nova.

I think Google showed with their vertical integration across Ai infra, DeepMind, and the data from search & YouTube that it’s possible to catchup.

[Peter Lo @PeterLoPR]

WIRED’s The Big Interview, Axios’ AI, and AWS re:Invent, NeurIPS - all occurring today.

Gonna need more coffee ☕️.

@MatthewBerman @shiringhaffary He says after publishing this video. 😇 https://t.co/IstwnoaFym

[Jack Clark @jackclarkSF]

Very excited about these roles - on the economics/policy one, you'd work very closely with myself and some of my colleagues. We're very interested in leveraging the kind of data we can uniquely produce at anthropic to help advance the conversation around AI and economy

[Gergely Orosz @GergelyOrosz]

I really hate how ignorant takes like this spread far and wide

No, the AWS outage is not caused by AI - anyone who worked at places like Amazon will know how outages like this happened before AI, and it’s almost always a few unlucky + unforeseen things happening the same time.

Earlier this year, after receiving emails from people in the throes of AI psychosis, I began to keep in touch with one man as he journeyed to recovery.

I'm grateful to James that he was willing to go on record. He wanted people to know: humanlike chatbots are dangerous.

FUTURUM AI FIFTEEN REBALANCE

We just completed the first quarterly rebalance of the Futurum AI Fifteen -- our curated list of non-Mag 7 names we believe are building the next layer of AI infrastructure.

Ranked by our proprietary AIRometer Score -- here are the top 15 👇

@anissagardizy8 Liked and subscribed!

@PatrickMoorhead @WSJ I kinda like how @crumbler put it: “Nvidia to give OpenAI a $100 billion NVIDIA gift card.”

[Jack Clark @jackclarkSF]

People leaving regular companies: Time for a change! Excited for my next chapter!

People leaving AI companies: I have gazed into the endless night and there are shapes out there. We must be kind to one another. I am moving on to study philosophy.

🚀 6 yrs ago, we predicted deepfakes would reshape how we create, consume, and trust information. That prediction is now reality.

We've developed evidence-based recommendations to safeguard trust and dignity in the AI age.

Important collaboration here which backs up my prediction of those doing custom silicon to start to customize the whole stack for the whole rack.
