this is a good week to reread IABIED.

(if anyone builds it, everyone dies).

[iddris @iddris]

it’s ironic how builders often get attacked more than destroyers get questioned.

[iddris @iddris]

bro, i stay out the way.

i’m a builder — not an entertainer.

respectfully.

[iddris @iddris]

humans are the closest thing that exists to a biological von neumann machine.

we’re the original recursive system.

three important accelerants needed for the next era of personal hardware.

massive leaps in battery energy density

improvements in system-level energy efficiency

self-improving chip architectures (ai designing better ai chips) — currently the human layer is the rate limiter.

every dev should try terax terminal.

it’s super clean, fast, agent native,
and lightweight at only 7mb.

plus it’s built on rust + tauri.

[iddris @iddris]

asymmetrical ideas usually sound irrational before they become inevitable.

[iddris @iddris]

it’s started.

new physics.
new mathematics.
new sciences.

[OpenAI @OpenAI]

Today, we share a breakthrough on the planar unit distance problem, a famous open question first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946.

For nearly 80 years, mathematicians believed the best possible solutions looked roughly like square grids.

An OpenAI model has now disproved that belief, discovering an entirely new family of constructions that performs better.

This marks the first time AI has autonomously solved a prominent open problem central to a field of mathematics.

the foothills of the singularity sounds like a good book.

Gemini Omni is a major leap in world understanding & multimodal editing! It can take photos, video & audio and build entirely new scenes. Over time it’ll be able to handle any input & any output - starting w/ video

You can even give it your own videos & iterate on your ideas:

@AndrewCurran_ new foundation world model built on gemini.

[iddris @iddris]

excited to see what google unveils tomorrow.

demis has long championed world models as a necessary catalyst for truly intelligent systems.

i’ve always felt like his intentions have always been well placed.

my bet is we get a new foundation world model built on gemini.

one of the best quotes of all time.

in 3BP, the trisolarans send sophons to slow scientific progress.

in our scenario, perhaps the goal isn’t to slow us down — but to accelerate us towards the great filter.

ungrounded speculation added, as always.

[iddris @iddris]

what if this whole time humanity has been subtly pushed by a more intelligent species accelerating us toward our own destruction?

perhaps the great filter isn’t random — but in-fact the point of the program.
