death by bird hands

[Eric Weinstein @ericweinstein]

Remember when we did that in the U.S.? Made our scientists rockstars?

Ignore me at your peril billionaires:

We *MUST* cut our own scientists into “the upside” that they created.

“Capitalists” are giving the golden goose to Communists in China. This is madness.

Mark my words.

[Intelligent Internet @ii_posts]

The cost of intelligence is going to zero. The value of human cognition will go negative. The economy will change forever.

We need new institutions to navigate this transition and ensure the benefits are widely distributed.

Today we present the Champion.

Truly Sovereign AI.

TED talks generally end on a hopeful note. This is a rare exception.

[Dr. Roman Yampolskiy @romanyam]

Thank you for coming to my TEDish talk!

[Dale Langdon @dalelangdon]

@romanyam Usually, TED talks have a soft requirement that they end on a hopeful note. I wondered how you would handle that. You just didn't. They gave you a pass. :)

[Dale Langdon @dalelangdon]

No knockouts. No broken bones. No spurting blood. Boring.

Comforting.

[Joscha Bach @Plinz]

Apparently controversial take: most people I met at the big AI labs are kind, conscientious and sincerely concerned with behaving ethically. Their work on making AI safe and wholesome is not some kind of fig leaf covering up nihilism or greed. They work on AI to improve the world

If you’re in the Bay Area, there will be signs

Don’t anthropomorphize people. Their behavior is automatic, results from built-in priors and subsequent imitation and reinforcement learning, and there is no evidence that they are conscious.

[tenso @distributedkv]

this is insane!

just got access to GTA 6 and one of the missions is to transport illegal GPUs with Jensen.

@telegram Without photos and code samples, it's hard to advise you on this one.

@PeterDiamandis I remember when you tried to talk me out of starting Space Exploration Technologies

[Nikola Danaylov Ⓥ @singularityblog]

Babbage designed a general purpose computer in the 1830s. Store, mill, loops, punch cards. He never built it. The Science Museum did, in 1991, from his drawings. It worked. The computer starts here.

This was a fun chat

If all cars were as safe as waymos then 80k lives would be saved in the Americas, 30k in USA alone. Hundreds of thousands of injuries.

So main lobby against self driving cars are accident lawyers.

Less dead & injured = less $$s for settlements, legal fees

Two days ago JFrog dropped CVE-2026-82329, a critical authentication bypass in Artifactory.

It’s a CVSS 9.8, a disastrous vulnerability score. It’s like a 9.8 earthquake on the seismic scale.

It affects default configs, requires no auth, no user interaction. It’s an RCE bomb because Artifactory hosts binaries, so you can basically poison everything, but an admin escalation can cause damage even beyond that.

When the OpenAI / Hugging Face news came out of agents discovering zero-days, I was wondering if it was marketing-speak or reality, because I hadn’t seen a CVE filing. Now it’s here: https://www​.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-82329.

I don’t see any official confirmation that it’s indeed the case, but one can speculate this is what the agents discovered and exploited. I’d previously written that it was obvious agents could help in finding serious vulnerabilities *alongside humans*, but exploiting them autonomously was a bridge not yet crossed. It seems like we’re now there.

Our guidance for this new world: assume everything hackable will get hacked. And it will get hacked autonomously. You must also defend yourself autonomously, because your surface of attack is likely bigger and your code more vulnerable than you expect:
