My favorite @elonmusk quote that I often send friends:

Do not fear losing. “You will lose,” Musk says. “It will hurt the first fifty times. When you get used to losing, you will play each game with less emotion.” You will be more fearless, take more risks.

I promise this will be the best 20 min you spend today! Robotics: Endgame, the sequel to my last year's Sequoia AI Ascent talk, "Physical Turing Test". I laid out the roadmap for solving Physical AGI as a simple parallel to the LLM success story. Be a good scientist, copy homework ;)

And stay till the end, more easter eggs and predictions for your polymarket!

00:30 DGX-1 origin story at OpenAI, I was there in 2016 signing with Jensen and Elon. Heading to the Computer History Museum!
01:42 The Great Parallel
03:31 Robotics, the Endgame
03:39 Why VLAs fall short
04:32 Video world models as the 2nd pretraining paradigm
06:09 World Action Models (WAM)
07:46 Strategies for robot data collection and the FSD equivalent to physical data flywheel for robot manipulation
11:06 EgoScale and the Dexterity Scaling Law we discovered recently
14:00 Physical RL: bridging the last mile
15:39 DreamDojo: an end-to-end neural physics engine for scaling RL in silico
17:00 Civilizational Technology Tree and my predictions for the near future. Spoiler: it's closer than you think.

Thanks to my friends at Sequoia for inviting me back to AI Ascent this year! I had a blast! Last year's talk is attached in the thread if you missed it.

recommended reading. strongly so.

> And these layoffs will continue till we learn to use AI. Till we learn to convert AI-tokens into outcomes and not just input.

@prasannalara @prithivraj91 @ashwinravi99 Thanks for keeping us entertained! :)

I still do this most days and I think it works great. My morning brain (right after 1hr exercise and 1 coffee) is quite eager to work and I go directly to the one top priority item. The energy decreases over time and with every distracting item loaded into the context window.

Be relentless.

"Rivers don't cut through rock because they are powerful, they cut through rock because they are persistent."

Just keep going.
You'll feel like stopping. Don't.

- Do 50 LC problems / 75 BLIND
- Understand and implement Detection and tracking algorithms
- Defend my Master thesis

@cneuralnetwork There are lots of people like you sharing your learning progress! It really inspires me to put in hours and work hard :)

[blue @bluewmist]

once you stop fantasizing about that ideal version of yourself and start working towards becoming that person by setting your alarm clock earlier and actually going to the gym and actually volunteering at places and actually eating healthier and not procrastinating and working just a little bit harder you'll realize that it was so easy all along. becoming your ideal self will only ever exist in your mind until you make the decision to work towards becoming that person.

get up.
get going.
it's now or never!
there is no light at the end of the tunnel.
get the flashlight and pave your own path because no one else is going to do it for you!

[Bharath @bharathsantnm]

@elliotarledge It really gets me inspired to share my progress in learning, just like you do!
