Announcing Discovery Loop!

I am very excited to announce that, along with my longtime friends and collaborators @Sanjay_Ghemawat, @OriolVinyalsML and @quocleix, we are founding Discovery Loop (@DiscoLoopAI), a Public Benefit Corporation whose mission is to automate machine learning, science, and engineering to accelerate discoveries and progress. The four of us have worked together for 14 to 30 years, and have helped build some of the world’s most used products, infrastructure and AI models, and we’re excited to turn our attention to this ambitious endeavor.

@xAI has acquired @X in an all-stock transaction. The combination values xAI at $80 billion and X at $33 billion ($45B less $12B debt).

Since its founding two years ago, xAI has rapidly become one of the leading AI labs in the world, building models and data centers at unprecedented speed and scale.

X is the digital town square where more than 600M active users go to find the real-time source of ground truth and, in the last two years, has been transformed into one of the most efficient companies in the world, positioning it to deliver scalable future growth.

xAI and X’s futures are intertwined. Today, we officially take the step to combine the data, models, compute, distribution and talent. This combination will unlock immense potential by blending xAI’s advanced AI capability and expertise with X’s massive reach. The combined company will deliver smarter, more meaningful experiences to billions of people while staying true to our core mission of seeking truth and advancing knowledge. This will allow us to build a platform that doesn’t just reflect the world but actively accelerates human progress.

I would like to recognize the hardcore dedication of everyone at xAI and X that has brought us to this point. This is just the beginning.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support.

From our earliest days, Google’s strong security focus has made us a leader in keeping people safe online. Today, businesses and governments are looking for even stronger security solutions and greater choice in cloud computing providers. Together, @GoogleCloud + @Wiz_io will turbocharge improved cloud security and the ability to use multiple clouds.

But the machine will also resist change… and this is where founders (especially) play a strong role in nurturing that shift in “organizations’s mindset” to a new way of working.

Increasingly believe that the "good, cheap, fast—choose two" maxim is devious misinformation spread by the slow.

In my experience, "slow" and "expensive" usually go together. I was in a meeting yesterday where lopping a year off a project schedule also ended up reducing the cost substantially. Fundamentally, it takes time to spend, and adding the temporal constraint tends to make things simpler and more efficient.

@elonmusk This should be an ad for you and @Tesla

TL;DR? LLMs are not meant to do information retrieval. They're meant to make. stuff. up.

@levie “Aligned to serve customers” may not align with what’s best for the world and humanity. This is where things begin to differ.

[Alok Ojha @iamalok]

@levie Couldn’t agree more

The worst things on the internet

- GDPR cookie pop ups
- old media pay walled articles
- embedded videos that won’t full screen
- web links to the App Store not the actual app
- video that auto plays, especially with audio
- big dumb ads between blocks of text

… what else?

[Alok Ojha @iamalok]

@levie This is the new Google. Far more useful and relevant. No need to click through various links to find they are talking about a different bike model altogether in this scenario

[Alok Ojha @iamalok]

@levie Haha, so true. I likely leading for notices because of False Positives as LLMs struggle to learn 2+2 equals 4

Good job. See you all in final.#Budapest23

@levie “Almost done” = true “early access”… the sooner you are almost done, the better 😄

[Alok Ojha @iamalok]

@levie Love it!

OpenAI’s dirty little secret is that GPTs are reaching their limits and it doesn’t know what to do next.

[Alok Ojha @iamalok]

Post from @ylecun makes tons of sense RE: LLM limitations.

Even more interesting was to see Yann use IIT JEE entrance exam as an example to make his point vs. the US Bar/Medical/MBA exams that LLMs have aced so far. If I may, I believe Math/Physics/Chem…https://t.co/uqZb2EhNRw
