We need to keep speaking up against banditry and terrorism.
It can happen to anyone at anytime as long as you are in Nigeria.
It must be condemned 100% and we need to pressure our govt to double the pace in securing us.
It has now pass be careful.

We’re going all in on World Models.
Today we’re launching the 1X World Model Lab.
The bet is simple:
You can’t fine-tune your way to AGI.
And you definitely can’t fine-tune your way to robots that can operate in the physical world.
General-purpose humanoids need models that understand space, motion, objects, causality, affordances, physics, and action before they ever see a specific task.
The frontier is not better VLA wrappers.
The frontier is embodied world models.
The 1X World Model Lab will focus on large-scale embodied world model pretraining: building the most generalizable foundation model for humanoid robots from the ground up.
The next frontier in AI requires scaling:
web-scale media + egocentric human videos + sim + dexterous remote operated robot data + on-policy NEO data → real-world deployment for robot data collection and RL → abundance of data → physical AI
The robot collects data.
The model gets better.
The robot gets better.
Repeat.
To lead this, we brought in one of the best for the mission: @_sam_sinha_ , as Head of World Models.
Sam was a founding research scientist at Luma AI and has been at the frontier of scaling multimodal generative video models his whole career.
If you’re the best in the world at large-scale pretraining, video models, robotics, RL, infra, or data — and you want your models to move atoms, not just pixels — join us.

We’re building the model that makes autonomous labor real.
Life update:
I'm joining @heyclicky!
I met Farza 4-yrs ago through buildspace, N&W S1.
I started my startup from there, built a social app for artists to 500,000 users, raised $2.3M, built the team, and sold it a year ago.
After the exit, I had no idea what was next!
So I did a 10-day silent meditation retreat...I had no phone, no internet, and was doing 10-11 hours of meditation a day!
After, I flew to Vietnam with my mom and sister for two weeks.
Came back to SF, started cooking my meals again after 3-years of Doordash, got back in the gym, and got my health together (something that degraded during my startup).
From there, I just started tinkering.
I built iOS apps, random demos, playing around with different ways to interact with AI, and honestly just learning to have fun while building again.
(Surprisingly hard after being a founder once!)
The more I explored, the more I felt we're just really early. ChatGPT was a huge unlock, but I don't think we've seen a new wave of consumer adoption since, especially with agents.
How can the power of these models really be brought to their fullest.
A lot left to find.
Back to the Farza arc.
One day I crossed paths with him in the Marina. Turns out we'd been living 5-mins apart this whole time. Invited him for dinner, started going on a lot of walks randomly talking about life.
When he started working on HeyClicky, I jumped in just to hack around and have fun. $0 a week salary.
Since then, we've gotten 10M+ views across our demos. But more importantly, we've been doing a ton of customer interviews, and so many people genuinely love the product.
We've got:
An 11-year-old building games with his voice. A Chief of Staff delegating background tasks to HeyClicky while she focuses on real work. An indie designer using it as an orchestrator for his whole system. A 70-year-old from Yemen learning to use a laptop for the first time, with just his voice.
I wasn't looking for anything...but something clicked here ;)
Going all in.
Let's build!
What is actually getting replaced is the labor, not the discipline.
For sure, all manual labourers can be replaced by robots, and all knowledge labourers can be replaced by agents.
So I don't agree that software eng is not a real engineering just because it can be replaced.
The FIDE rating list came out yesterday, and for the first time, I am officially 2126+.
I’m now ranked 25th in Nigeria.
For a small boy from Kaduna who started with nothing but a dream, this is something I never imagined.
I'm Lydia
A founder and product builder who is also studying insurance at the university of Lagos.
Work and study are a heavy pair but I was built for this 🦅
