Meet hunch! Jev-like decisions in ~20ms without even needing a GPU, learning live from a teacher model.
Built on @GoogleGemma's EmbeddingGemma 2, it can works with any teacher model like @CloudFlare's Clef.

What a terrible piece, conflating apples to oranges. A studio that makes remasters doesn't have the cost structure or risk of a studio that makes AAA games.
The issues EA, Microsoft and all other others are facing are consistent. Salaries are too high, games take too long to make, and sales are not covering their cost.
If the studios were making money they would be kept! It's very simple, yet each time this topic comes up we forget that the studios lost money.
Microsoft famously was hands off at its studios, kept funneling them money, and got lambasted for not managing them, and here we have another situation where the claim is to just let the studio cook.
If you are a publisher and your studio comes to you with a pitch for another single player RPG after your last one lost money, and you are not seeing the market grow (it isn't) and you are just seeing their costs increase (they are) then you can either ask them to pivot or close them. It's very simple
Yet time and time again we have people pretending that the games magically make money if only they were left to be made on their own, or, some how, only if the publisher somehow got the studio to make a game perfectly, on time, on budget, without crunch, with full benefits, and remote work!
@kalin_t that last point is what makes me wonder
at stadia I was wondering a lot about how much / how little money the NBU (next billion users) has, a lot of the unlock of cloud is to make it such that the user doesn't buy or own compute
A 300-rack AI supercomputer powered by 9,600 Nvidia A100 GPUs is listed on eBay for $59.7M.
That’s 1,200 GPU compute servers with 384TB of combined GPU memory and roughly 1.4 petabytes of system RAM.
Each compute server connects eight A100 GPUs through $NVDA's NVSwitch technology.
More than six years after A100 launched, The seller is offering these systems refurbished for new AI training and inference deployments.
This is a loader animation I made for an internal tool of which I am the sole user.
It took millions of tokens and multiple minutes of iteration (it was two prompts).
This is amazing and shows what would have taken a vast manual effort in the past can be done as a hobby project very efficiently. Truly a new age of gaming and software ahead.
The entitlement is fucking insane.
You want someone to sit there for years and decomp and recomp a video game by hand so you can virtue signal on Reddit.
Code is not art. It either works or it doesn’t. Use of AI code in the hands of a skilled developer is fine.
12 months ago 100% of my coding was done locally against my computer's filesystem
now ~5% is done locally, my computer is a conduit to download and upload files to cloud agents
most days my iPad and iPhone are all I need and I'm getting 50x more work done than I was a year ago
this might be my last normal tweet before biotech goes vertical
i'm not a whistleblower. I don't work at Lilly, Novo or any of the big labs
but there is a massive shift happening in human biology right now.
it's sitting in press releases and almost nobody reads them
the last 6 months alone:
- a once-daily pill roughly doubled median survival in metastatic pancreatic cancer (13.2 vs 6.6 months)
- a one-time gene editing infusion cut hereditary angioedema attacks 87%, and 62% of patients stayed attack-free and off all other prevention for 6 months
- a one-time gene edit for cholesterol dropped LDL up to 62%, and it held for over a year
- a personalized mrna vaccine beat keytruda alone in a 1,137 patient melanoma phase 3
- retatrutide hit ~28% weight loss in a phase 3
- an ai-designed drug entered phase 3
- a pill that regrows hair passed its second phase 3
- an immunotherapy that could let some rectal cancer patients skip surgery, chemo and radiation just got fda approved
- a man lived 271 days off dialysis on a pig kidney
- human cells were caught passing chromosome-sized chunks of DNA to their neighbors, and it changes how the neighbors behave
we are on the verge of an era where the human body is a software problem and the update cycle gets shorter everyday
stick around, it's going to get weird
