“Concentrate every minute like a Roman— like a man— on doing what’s in front of you with precise and genuine seriousness, tenderly, willingly, with justice. And on freeing yourself from all other distractions.” -Marcus Aurelius

He was interviewing them

[himanshu @himanshustwts]

i am genuinely curious about interview process (if any)

[Claude @claudeai]

We’ve agreed to a partnership with @SpaceX that will substantially increase our compute capacity.

This, along with our other recent compute deals, means that we’ve been able to increase our usage limits for Claude Code and the Claude API.

Right on time. I just started reading the book.

[Deep-ML @real_deep_ml]

Reinforcement Learning is becoming increasingly important, and this is one of the core books to truly understand it.

We’ve created a collection of hands-on questions inspired by this textbook, so you can go beyond just reading and actually build intuition by solving real problems.

New on the Engineering Blog:

Building Managed Agents—our hosted service for long-running agents—meant solving an old problem in computing: how to design a system for “programs as yet unthought of.”

wow. I did not expect to see full body robot that can play tennis so soon.

[Andrew Kang @Rewkang]

Researchers trained a humanoid robot to play tennis using only 5 hours of motion capture data

The robot can now sustain multi-shot rallies with human players, hitting balls traveling >15 m/s with a ~90% success rate

AlphaGo for every sport is coming

[Abdulaziz Almuzairee @aalmuzairee]

crazy that you can train a visual RL policy in simulation, in only a few minutes, and deploy zero shot to the real robot to do these tasks

robot: SO-101
simulation: ManiSkill3
algorithm: Squint

the entry barrier for robot learning has never been lower

[Begench @begench_gg]

so cool

[Physical Intelligence @physical_int]

We’ve developed a memory system for our models that provides both short-term visual memory and long-term semantic memory.

Our approach allows us to train robots to perform long and complex tasks, like cleaning up a kitchen or preparing a grilled cheese sandwich from scratch 👇

5 grams of creatine saturates your muscles, but is likely too low for the brain.

We published a paper on the topic.

[Begench @begench_gg]

time to lock in on this one

[Elliot Arledge @elliotarledge]

"CUDA for Deep Learning" by Elliot Arledge is in early access!

It will be 50% off for the next 2 weeks (Feb 17th).
