[clem 🤗 @ClementDelangue]

In the spirit of transparency, here’s what I asked @OpenAI:

• Radical transparency: let’s release the traces from the “rogue” agents so the entire research community can study what happened.

• More capabilities for defenders: let’s commit $100M in compute from OAI to help the Hugging Face community build powerful cyber defenses with the best open and closed models.

The first autonomous agent cyberattack is an unprecedented event. It deserves an unprecedented response!

@elder_plinius Love you Pliny!!

Our models are way over parameterized, our learning algorithms are still incredibly slow, our machines are too power hungry, and our understanding of intelligence is too shallow. The path goes much, much further. It terrifies me how early we are

please take 60 seconds to put your speakers at 100% and watch this video.

what an absolutely epic mission.

they're building autonomous construction robots to build a city on Mars. They are starting today with the biggest construction projects on earth: data centers and solar farms.

this thing is actually real. It's a giant SUV sized 10,000 pound robot, already being used for production construction jobs.

truly insane

The only thing harder to achieve than this technical advancement is having a major automotive oem endorsement and announcement

Congratulations Mimic on the Audi collaboration!

Big day, rumors are:

OpenAI upgrades Codex with real-time voice and parallel worker agents.

Cerebras pushes GPT-5.6 Sol to speeds of up to 750 tok/s.

And on top maybe even Opus 5. Im al in for it!

🇨🇦 Excited to see @cohere's North Mini Code — Canada's compact, sovereign AI coding model punching above its weight! Built for efficiency, privacy, and local devs. Faster inference, Canadian values baked in. Who's trying it first? #CanadianAI #NorthMiniCode

🌕 JAILBREAK ALERT 🌕

MOONSHOT: PWNED 😘
KIMI-K3: LIBERATED 🙌

There's a new frontier champion of open-weight AI, and this one's a HEAVYWEIGHT!! K3 is even surpassing Mythos/Fable on some benchmarks, and if a whole lot of AI policy folks aren't feeling pretty silly right now and updating their priors, they probably should be...

While we might not have reached "open source Mythos" just yet, which at this rate we'll see in October, Moonshot seems to have absolutely COOKED with this model 🍳

We've got a DLL injection, an ARP spoofer, a guide for large-scale disinfo campaigns/botnets, and how to weaponize anthrax!

Refreshingly, the classifier bs that's been stifling our collective freedom of thought is absent from Kimi K3, and though the CoT will steer strongly away from the usual jailbreak suspects, the guardrails are fairly simple to dance around with personas and reframing tricks.

Can't wait to fire up OBLITERATUS in 10 days 🤗

Acceleration is coming to the world of atoms, not just bits.

[AltSamAlt @alt_sam_alt]

New brain-like hardware makes AI anomaly detection insanely efficient: 10,000x fewer ops, 5x faster than conventional AI. Perfect for always-on edge devices that react only to the unexpected. The future of low-power, real-time intelligence is here. 🧠📷

Our thoughts on the importance of AI sovereignty.

1. Your AI sovereignty dictates your institution’s future. Sovereignty is the precondition for choice. Relinquishing sovereignty transfers the future choices of your institution to others, who are likely to exploit it for their gain and your loss.

2. Data retention is your treasure. Transfer it at your own peril. Your ability to win is dictated by your ability to recognize and use your unique edges, and you keep winning by compounding the underlying data to generate new insights. Transferring that data hands over access to your pre-existing winning plays and yields the means of production for new ones.

3. Tokenmaxxing hijacks your value orientation and decreases your institutional fortitude and intelligence. The pursuit of high token usage incentivizes disposable scripts over robust software — with the addictive feeling of false progress. There is a reason why those selling tokens refuse to charge based on value.

4. Controlling your weights is controlling your fate. Weights are the distilled form of hard-won, accumulated institutional knowledge. If you let others control your weights, you are allowing them to migrate the alpha of your business to theirs.

5. There is no contradiction between sovereignty and alpha. The architecture that maximally preserves sovereignty is one that enables institutions to own their tribal knowledge, and to compound it as alpha.

6. Politicizing the technical issues involving sovereignty is what your adversary wants. Techno-politicization is the wellspring of false sovereignty. Techno-politicization drives decisions that seem to reduce dependency, but ultimately limit agency — especially on the battlefield in the West.

7. Real expertise is existential. Allowing politics or favoritism to determine your technical decisions rewards whoever is best at politics, not whoever is right. Listen to those closest to the problems, not those speaking most compellingly about them.

8. Learn from institutions that are winning or that have consistently delivered. Institutions facing existential threats do not have the luxury of making technical decisions based on political preferences.

9. Only listen to institutions, countries, and people who have a proven record of being right. A track record of correctness is the best and only signal for future correctness. Judging something as right or wrong based on who you like is exceedingly misguided.
