I love autonomy! Our SA team is having a great time applying everything we have learned and developed for car autonomy to new domains: Air and Maritime. We are so grateful to have such amazing partners like @shieldaitech

Powered by Hivemind: Building AI factories with @nvidia's AI stack

In a recent demonstration, Hivemind brought NVIDIA’s Cosmos 2 reasoning model together with Aechelon’s simulation capabilities to execute a four-agent wide-area search mission.

Operators orchestrated team intent instead of flying individual aircraft, moving operational experience faster toward trusted autonomous capability.

The AI Factory continuously tests and validates new capabilities, turning what is learned in the field into better performance for the next mission. It’s a continuous loop: fly, learn, improve, test, validate, fly again.

@chadwahl @jawwwn_ @L3HarrisTech Let’s have a contest! I promise some good @nvidia gear for whichever FDE brings me the best example!

@_jumbo_johnson @chadwahl @jawwwn_ @L3HarrisTech Use case is a 30b fine tuned model vs a 500b parameter model. Do the math on even with tiny context window in the 500B param model it’s not even close. Also it’s not random enterprise it’s a a very specific part of our CMA workflow.

@Ckawasaki @jawwwn_ @L3HarrisTech This was my favorite quote too! So empowering for enterprise. You have the data you have the power. Make your models prove their worth.

[Jack Prescott @JackPrescottX]

Jeff, who runs the boards & systems supply chain at @nvidia, sits down with Palantir’s @chadwahl to discuss the impact of their partnership:

“By instrumenting our supply chain with Ontology, and monitoring the data real-time, not only can we monitor how fast things are moving… but we can identify ‘what is the bottleneck?’”
…
“We’re early on, but we’re really excited. We’ve tried other platforms, we’ve tried this before. [We’ve] never really seen the speed of which this is actually coming together. Everybody is quite optimistic.”

[Palantir @PalantirTech]

“Dr. Karp talks about chips and ontology. This is ontology for chips.”

At AIPCon 11, @nvidia reveals how it is partnering with Palantir to build and run their supply chain on Palantir.

[Bill Rivers @riverswrites]

“The world’s largest infrastructure buildout in human history.”

Nvidia to run its global supply chain on Palantir as a proving ground for a sovereign AI platform.

“Huge” does not even begin to describe it.

@chadwahl @jawwwn_ @nvidia @PalantirTech So proud to be part of this project! Bringing open models and Sovereign arch together in one place!

[Chad Wahlquist @chadwahl]

The most consequential supply chain on earth just became the reference architecture

YES! Then you post-train it and 🚀

.@ssankar says Palantir was able to make Nvidia's Nemotron Ultra model "better than frontier":

"I literally almost felt gaslit when, within 24 hours of getting Nemotron up with no post-training, this is vanilla Nemotron Ultra, it did better than frontier."

"If you just looked at the numbers, you would say, 'It's nowhere near the Frontier. That shouldn't even be possible.'"

"But of course, the benchmarks are wrong. I mean, the benchmarks are right for what the benchmark's measuring, but that's not my business. Those are not the tasks my customers had that they were trying to solve."

[Jensen Huang @JensenHuang]

For my first post, I’m sharing a letter @NVIDIA signed on why open models matter.

AI will transform every industry, power every company, and be built by every country.

Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty.

The world needs both frontier closed models and frontier open models.

This is what commitment to the warfighter looks like—giving the leaders headed back to the fleet and joint force the tools to see, decide, and act faster than any adversary. Honored to support this mission. 🇺🇸 https://t.co/wUM1fERqyW

[Alex Neefus @alexneefus]

Love hearing this. And you're right on the edge of the real unlock—once you layer RL on top to tailor Nemotron to your specific lworkflows, the performance jump is going to make this experiment look like the warm-up. Sovereign + self-improving agents is where it gets genuinely epic. 🚀

Autonomy and robotics is the next big frontier in AI. Amazing to see an operation like this carried out with no risk to US soldiers lives.

[U.S. Central Command @CENTCOM]

Yesterday, using multiple one-way attack surface drones, CENTCOM forces successfully struck a submarine and ship maintenance facility in Iran. Three Corsair unmanned surface vessels hit the port at Bandar Abbas Naval Base, marking the first time American forces have employed sea drones in combat operations. Last night’s strikes degraded Iran’s ability to continue attacking commercial shipping.

[Alex Neefus @alexneefus]

@Sentdex Not only can you host small models on-prem. Every buisness can host Nemotron Ultra (NVIDIAs 550B Model) on a couple Blackwell GPUs.

[Palantir @PalantirTech]

Intelligence should be sovereign.

[Alex Neefus @alexneefus]

@RnaudBertrand Clearly you missed the PLTR + NVIDIA announcement if you think this is in favor of Chinese models.

[Alex Neefus @alexneefus]

@PalantirTech Love this. Open Models are the future, let’s democratize model building so it’s not owned by only a small few that are monetizing our data.
