People often talk about reaching ramen profitability as a start-up. At Paddington Robotics, we're making a good start with the ramen 😂

Up next - profitability!

France sends a clear and unequivocal message of friendship and support to the entire Ukrainian nation.

We stand and will remain firmly alongside Ukraine as it resists.

Thanks to my female colleagues @kajakallas 🇪🇺, @ABaerbock 🇩🇪, and @elinavaltonen 🇫🇮 for the warm welcome here in #Brussels for my first #FAC. Looking forward to working with you. 🇪🇺

Today, all day long, work continued in the city of Dobropillya, the Donetsk region, following a Russian strike. It was one of the most brutal attacks, a combined strike carefully planned to cause maximum damage. Missiles, along with Shahed drones, targeted the central part of the city. Nine residential buildings, a shopping center, and stores were hit.

Unfortunately, eleven people have died—my condolences to their families and loved ones. Among the victims was a State Emergency Service worker. The second strike came while rescuers were already working. Fifty people were injured, all have received the necessary assistance. Among the wounded are seven children, with the youngest being a 10-year-old girl.

There were also other attacks today in the Donetsk, Kharkiv, and southern regions. In Kherson, FPV drones once again targeted civilians.

Russia continues to prove with its cruelty, day after day, that nothing has changed for them in Moscow – they are not thinking about how to end the war, but how to destroy and capture more while the world allows them to continue. Of course, we are doing everything we can to protect lives.

I am grateful to all the leaders, diplomats from partner countries, and civil society figures who support Ukraine, who condemned these Russian strikes, and who call things by their true names.

It’s important that we continue to coordinate all our efforts with our partners, ensuring effective defense and doing everything possible to bring peace closer.

[Emmanuel Macron @EmmanuelMacron]

Europeans,

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

As a result of these days, we see clear support from Europe. Even more unity, even more willingness to cooperate.

Everyone is united on the main issue – for peace to be real, we need real security guarantees. And this is the position of all of Europe – the entire continent. The United Kingdom, the European Union, Türkiye.

Of course, we understand the importance of America, and we are grateful for all the support we’ve received from the United States. There has not been a day when we haven’t felt gratitude. It’s gratitude for the preservation of our independence – our resilience in Ukraine is based on what our partners are doing for us – and for their own security.

What we need is peace, not endless war. And that’s why we say security guarantees are the key to this.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

To the financial institutions & industries backtracking on climate commitments, I want to say loudly & clearly:

You’re on the wrong side of history.

You’re on the wrong side of science.

And you’re on the wrong side of consumers who are looking for more sustainability, not less.

⚡️ Excited to share that I am starting an AI+Education company called Eureka Labs.
The announcement:

---
We are Eureka Labs and we are building a new kind of school that is AI native.

How can we approach an ideal experience for learning something new? For example, in the case of physics one could imagine working through very high quality course materials together with Feynman, who is there to guide you every step of the way. Unfortunately, subject matter experts who are deeply passionate, great at teaching, infinitely patient and fluent in all of the world's languages are also very scarce and cannot personally tutor all 8 billion of us on demand.

However, with recent progress in generative AI, this learning experience feels tractable. The teacher still designs the course materials, but they are supported, leveraged and scaled with an AI Teaching Assistant who is optimized to help guide the students through them. This Teacher + AI symbiosis could run an entire curriculum of courses on a common platform. If we are successful, it will be easy for anyone to learn anything, expanding education in both reach (a large number of people learning something) and extent (any one person learning a large amount of subjects, beyond what may be possible today unassisted).

Our first product will be the world's obviously best AI course, LLM101n. This is an undergraduate-level class that guides the student through training their own AI, very similar to a smaller version of the AI Teaching Assistant itself. The course materials will be available online, but we also plan to run both digital and physical cohorts of people going through it together.

Today, we are heads down building LLM101n, but we look forward to a future where AI is a key technology for increasing human potential. What would you like to learn?

@EurekaLabsAI is the culmination of my passion in both AI and education over ~2 decades. My interest in education took me from YouTube tutorials on Rubik's cubes to starting CS231n at Stanford, to my more recent Zero-to-Hero AI series. While my work in AI took me from academic research at Stanford to real-world products at Tesla and AGI research at OpenAI. All of my work combining the two so far has only been part-time, as side quests to my "real job", so I am quite excited to dive in and build something great, professionally and full-time.

It's still early days but I wanted to announce the company so that I can build publicly instead of keeping a secret that isn't. Outbound links with a bit more info in the reply!

@lgewessler Vielen Dank 🙏🙏🙏

Excited to demonstrate in our work published today at @NatureMedicine that we can leverage powerful diffusion models to “augment” our medical imaging datasets in a steerable fashion to oversample underrepresented conditions and attributes.

[Emmanuel Macron @EmmanuelMacron]

Frankreich, Deutschland, Polen, gemeinsam entschlossen, die Ukraine in jeder Hinsicht und dauerhaft zu unterstützen und Russland niemals gewinnen zu lassen.

Für unsere Sicherheit, für Europa.

Unsere Einheit ist unsere Stärke.

NEW: an ideological divide is emerging between young men and women in many countries around the world.

I think this one of the most important social trends unfolding today, and provides the answer to several puzzles.

IBM NorthPole - Neural Inference at the Frontier of Energy, Space, and Time https://t.co/mMq03tdCcV

[Open Neuromorphic @OpenNeuroMorph]

Computing, since its inception, has been processor-centric, with memory separated from compute. Inspired by the organic brain and optimized for inorganic silicon,
NorthPole, the new chip from @IBM, is a neural inference architecture that blurs this boundary.
