It's all hands on deck for the human race and NVIDIA needs its founder at the helm.

[David Wong @gnowdivad]

That was incredibly fast

@TonyChanBuilds hi 👋

@Clara_Gold Invite code, please?

[David Wong @gnowdivad]

@Clara_Gold I was looking for exactly this a few days ago! Super exciting to see this.

質問「100%国産のドローンは出来ますか？」

小泉防衛大臣「出来ます！というか、もうやってます。でも悔しいのが、その100%純国産のドローンを作って持って来たのはアメリカの企業だった。その企業が言うには『日本の中小企業は、世界で最も精巧な部品を作り、こんなにも納期を守る国は世界にない』と言っていた」

Jensen x Elon would go on a generational semiconductor run

@zerohedge That would be an honor

@EricTopol @NEJM We might truly be living in the future. Once it starts scaling and costs come down, the possibilities are limitless.

[David Wong @gnowdivad]

@QuanquanGu We can accelerate the discovery process, but the bottlenecks still exist up the chain. Addressing those are also essential.

[David Wong @gnowdivad]

AI now runs in dream time. Humans still run in real time. The bottleneck never moved. The funnel just got tighter. https://t.co/m4x53lrH2v

[Dave A Ricks @DaveARicks]

I think that would be amazing and I think it’s not likely. The map of biology is still largely a blank page and randomized human proof is the long pole in the tent. I am excited about the use of AI in our sector but progress will likely be steady and incremental.

[David Wong @gnowdivad]

The difference is astounding. And this will be the worst it ever will be.

The impressive impact of strength training for preserving muscle mass while taking a GLP-1 drug for obesity, as seen in randomized trial @NatureMedicine

T=tirzepatide alone (Zepbound), T + REx=drug with resistance exercise

@OmarAbcXyz123 a real chief of staff is always on and always with you. that's why this belongs on a phone. super excited to see your work!

[David Wong @gnowdivad]

same models, same slack, different results. the harness is the product now.

[Dylan Patel @dylan522p]

The funny thing is that Perplexity is primarily using Anthropic models for our use cases, but Anthropic sucks at product, and they're not really receptive to any feedback on their product
Same with OpenAI

[David Wong @gnowdivad]

GLP-1s only take the fat off. Everything else is still your responsibility.

[Hunter Williams @HunterEsoteric]

The first randomized trial of resistance training on tirzepatide is here.

Researchers in Western Australia put 120 adults between 50 and 70 on tirzepatide for 40 weeks.

Half of them lifted weights three times a week, and the other half went about their normal lives. At the end, both groups had lost almost exactly the same amount of weight, roughly 22 kilograms each.

The group that lifted lost 25% less lean tissue.

Their strength went up 10 to 18%. The group that didn’t lift got 6 to 9% weaker over the same stretch.

To be fair, lifting reduced lean loss but didn’t eliminate it. The training was supervised, attendance was 91%, and most people won’t hit that on their own.

At the end of the day, Tirzepatide is a remarkable tool for taking fat off the body. However, a tool only does what it was built to do, and protecting your muscle was never its job.

That part falls on you!

Three days a week under a bar. Consider it part of the prescription.

[David Wong @gnowdivad]

@danielobvt @bryan_johnson insane numbers. how have they changed since you started?

[David Wong @gnowdivad]

@Jason That’s also why the people setting policy and prices underestimate it. The people deciding never see the receipt.

[David Wong @gnowdivad]

@Jason Doesn’t just apply to inflation. When you reach a certain income, money itself barely means anything to you.

[David Wong @gnowdivad]

People keep forgetting Jevons Paradox. It might be a race to the bottom but that’s where the volume is.

AWS CEO:

AI INFERENCE ISN'T EVEN AT 1% OF WHAT IT WILL BECOME

AWS CEO Matt Garman, speaking on @alexeheath podcast: "Every time we see inference get, you know, 50% cheaper, we see an order of magnitude more usage."

Yet revenue keeps rising even as inference gets cheaper.
