A truly insightful perspective from Satya Nadella. While the current trajectory of innovation seems divergent, the core message on ecosystem stability is profoundly relevant. Definitely warrants serious contemplation 🤔

Introducing the Fusion API, the smartest compound model in the market.

Fusion achieves Fable-level intelligence at half the price.

How it works 👇

[Pankaj Agarwal @Shankusu993]

Wow! Another opportunity for China to establish global distribution dominance.

China has been increasingly releasing cheaper intelligence, more open-source, and US is exactly the opposite - closed expensive models with restricted access! Crazy!

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.

The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.

Access to all other Claude models is not affected.

We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

DiffusionGemma is an open, experimental model that brings our text diffusion research to Gemma 4. It’s a racehorse 🏇achieving up to 4x faster inference by generating entire blocks of text simultaneously vs predicting token-by-token (word-by-word) output!

The cast for human friendly DSLs has become very difficult in the post LLM world.

IMO newer programming languages/models going forward would evolve to be more explicit and llm first

[Pankaj Agarwal @Shankusu993]

@OpenAI On a followup note, it's priced cheaper but tend to use too many reasoning tokens (and seem to require higher token limits to work well) adding up to a higher cost. Interesting, is this a new age dark pattern that LLM companies are coming up with?

[Pankaj Agarwal @Shankusu993]

While @OpenAI gpt 5 didn't meet the high expectations set prior to launch, my experience using it for the past few days has been pretty good. CFG support is a big plus (still evaluating how well it works, but it has many implications and I like the direction taken here)

[Sentient @SentientAGI]

Sentient’s mission is to ensure that Artificial General Intelligence is open-source and not controlled by any single entity.

We’re launching the GRID: the world’s largest network of intelligence.

The GRID makes open-source the default for AI development and ensures humanity wins the future of AI.

Let’s dive in👇

The GRID is on its way…

@SentientAGI What's cooking ? 👀

[Palash Shah @palashshah]

it's so easy to become obsessed with the wrong metrics. twitter isn't real life, raising money isn't an indicator of success, quality of your office is irrelevant. only customers, and how happy they are matters.

[Pankaj Agarwal @Shankusu993]

Happy 10 @ethereum ! 🎉🎊

Celebratory moment for entire Blockchain/crypto community as the world's first decentralized programmable ledger turns 10 with a 0 downtime history! Quiet crazy what the journey has been, and only more to come!

@prashant_xyz Much respect ser 🫡 thought I only witnessed a short part of spheron's growth closely, you guys always stood out as real builders creating value with much dedication and relentless hardwork.

Many congratulations on the upcoming milestone! 🎉

[Pankaj Agarwal @Shankusu993]

@jito_sol Quiet a few changes/improvements, private txns, verifiable ordering and plugins are super cool

Recently discovered, a set of people be doom chatting with ChatGPT to avoid doom scrolling on Instagram/Tiktok

Do what you will with that information

[Pankaj Agarwal @Shankusu993]

@Saxenasaheb True, deeper and on-ground insights would come from talking to these game devs, that's just my hypothesis and initial approach.

I think the main problem here is for gamers- but if we think for game devs it solves capital fragmentation and (some) new demand for early stage

[Pankaj Agarwal @Shankusu993]

@Saxenasaheb This hypothesis and overall system flow will still be valid, and can be tested with any game, so these indie games + any game with open payments api, or on-chain games/payments (need to hunt these).

Also, OP promised me the assumption of users 😅, means the game dev get them too

[Pankaj Agarwal @Shankusu993]

@Saxenasaheb It would be great if there was someone building in my existing network, but if not my best bet would be indie game dev forums.

They have clear incentives - get exposure to more users, and get direct access to gamer's funds without a credit lock-in (ease of tnx).

[Pankaj Agarwal @Shankusu993]

@Saxenasaheb (2/2)
To test the core hypothesis of cross platform and convenience, these are also must:
- at least 2-3 games integration/support, ideally both on-chain games but also the traditional ones
- 1 click payment support on the payment interface
- Standard security practices

[Pankaj Agarwal @Shankusu993]

@Saxenasaheb (1/2) I beleive, these are a must have from an MVP standpoint:

- A wallet interface to load funds and track payments for gamers
- Stable coin support, 1 popular one should suffice
- A payment gateway API/SDK for integration with partner platforms
