Dark matter. I just don't see what everyone sees in it.

Neutrinos. Trillions of them pass through me every second and not one has ever said hi.

Photons. They make light of everything.

Quarks. Six flavors and not one of them is chocolate.

Gluons. Way too clingy.

Alpha particles. All that swagger and a sheet of paper stops them.

Gravitons. Never met one but I hear they bring everyone down.

Z bosons. They put me to sleep.

Particles in superposition. Make up your mind!

@alexeyguzey congrats!

.@sama is * exceptional * at this

Startups are naturally good at this; it is hard to keep a bigger company good at this and i think an underexplored space.

[Mike Liberatore @mlib16]

People still underestimate how much compute and storage we’ll need.

Imagine your life with full telemetry. Every experience. Every feeling. Every memory.

Imagine how useful AI becomes with all that context.

Now multiply that by billions of people.

We’re still in the top of the 1st inning 🚀

Some news: 5 months ago I joined @coreauto, a small research lab focused on new ways for models to learn. I’m also hiring four interns to do something my younger self would've loved.

It started with a pretty unusual project. We set up a handful of small online businesses, and put an agent in charge. We gave each business some initial funding and a seed idea, and off they went, trying to sell real things to real customers while we watched. It’s about as open-ended and unforgiving a task as you can probably give to an agent, with countless decisions to make and effects that take time to become clear.

Each business got its own bank account, a debit card to pay suppliers, a web browser, an email inbox, a domain name, cloud infrastructure and a schedule. Every few hours, the agent woke up and decided what to do. It might update a landing page, adjust an ad campaign, reply to a customer, and then go back to sleep.

The agents built actual storefronts and apps. They bought ads, attracted visitors, and even made some sales. The agents acted as operators that kept a business moving, but we noticed they never really stepped back to strategize about what might move the needle. If people weren’t buying, why? Was the landing page unappealing? Or maybe the offer itself was the problem?

One amusing example was the very first order a customer placed. Our supplier had run out of stock. But it’s a dropshipping business, and thankfully tens of other suppliers carried the same product. Instead of trying another supplier, the agent almost immediately sent the customer a polite apology and attempted to issue a refund. Gah! So close!

The agents could handle much of the work of getting a business up and running. What they struggled with was deciding what to change when it wasn’t working.

That’s what we want to understand. We also want to see what changes when people take the lead. What does a business operator actually do all day when agents can do so much? What new work does this allow them to do? Which decisions can’t be delegated?

—

So this winter we're hiring 4 interns as Associate General Managers. Associate Product Manager internships are programs that give early career generalists a product to own. We want to try something similar, but with entire businesses.

You’ll create and grow businesses, with agents handling the routine work so you can focus on figuring out what matters. Each AGM gets a budget and our agent infrastructure that’s designed for this. Which ideas to try is up to you. Put more money behind what finds customers and keep refining.

Where you step in tells us what agents can't do yet. You'll be in our SF office with me and people I’m so fortunate to work with, like @_arohan_, @joannejang, @MillionInt, @marksaroufim and @juliacvillagra

We don't care much where you went to school or what your resume looks like. We’re looking for enterprising people with a drive to create, who’ve made money on the internet before and already use AI extensively to enable their ideas. If that sounds like you: https://t.co/GfiGCVtMYU

benchmarks should be reported per second and per joule

otherwise its like ranking chess players by win rate and not mentioning that one of them gets a week per move

accuracy per unit of 'wall clock' time and energy is the number that actually matters

[Abhijeet @abhijeet_d]

this is the biggest breakthrough yet in not going for a run

This is pretty neat: ChatGPT Work and GPT-6 Astra (I used "Max") can take an address and produce a 5K/10K circular running route starting from that address, using OSM data https://t.co/GVxIqlqThC
