@DrewPavlou The chance for Australia to be "the lucky country" for another generation relies on the country going all in on datacentres

Guess this is an analog keyboard

[AI at Meta @AIatMeta]

We trained Brain2Qwerty v2 on ~22,000 sentences from 9 volunteers, each recorded for 10 hours wearing an MEG device while typing.

By using end-to-end deep learning on raw brain signals from MEG devices and fine-tuning LLMs, the system effectively bridges the gap between noisy neural data and coherent language.

The results are promising:
- Avg word accuracy of 61% across participants
- 78% word accuracy and 50%+ of sentences decoded with ≤ 1 word error for the top-performing participant
- Performance scales log-linearly with data volume

@Larryjamieson_ @bowtiedstocks your "they won't let it go down" good sir

[Chris Dilger @cdilga]

Neuralese is NOT a language you can pick in LinkedIn - even if you have managed to develop basic working proficiency

[Chris Dilger @cdilga]

@bowtiedstocks @mettifo79 Alright, hold up, you're getting me far too excited 😂

@0xPrajwal_ Check out @doodlestein who is vibecoding that sort of thing on the daily

@knowclarified @doodlestein Isn't his argument just that the doctors are confusing P(data | null true) with P(null true | data)

@doodlestein @knowclarified Bayes theorem misunderstandings are common, even in university statistics departments

[Chris Dilger @cdilga]

Worked last time right?

[Chris Dilger @cdilga]

How many books do we need to print before we have all the compressed Fable 5 weights on it?

[Chris Dilger @cdilga]

Antipodal would go hard as an Australian AI Lab name

"You never know how much time you have left, before the US Government declares your prompts a national security risk"

[Chris Dilger @cdilga]

@doodlestein @AnthropicAI Me too, fable was going hard on some tricky bits I was dealing with on a few projects. So much smoother.

Was good while it lasted

[Chris Dilger @cdilga]

In light of this, it's now abundantly clear that Australia, along with any other countries which want to have any hope of competing economically must develop our own sovereign compute and training infrastructure as a matter of our own national security

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.

The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.

Access to all other Claude models is not affected.

We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

@kchau Surprised you didn't call it the cone of silence

[Chris Dilger @cdilga]

@gnostic_bf In fairness, the symbolism works both ways

[Chris Dilger @cdilga]

@AvidCommentator I'm keen to find out!

[Chris Dilger @cdilga]

@dragonboxboy @Molson_Hart Maybe not in the US, plenty in Australia and Taiwan. Pretty small compared to total population though

[Chris Dilger @cdilga]

@econoadabsurdam Isn't the CHF a bit closer to Super I some ways
