Dario has written that we need to “pace the frontier,” and Sam has agreed. People may be surprised by my response: go ahead.

You guys are the frontier. By any reasonable metric — market share, revenue growth, model capability — the two of you have a duopoly on frontier intelligence. You’ve also claimed the lead is widening because of recursive self-improvement.

I don’t see what you see in the lab. If the unreleased models are scary enough that you think you should slow down, I support your decision to be responsible.

But stop pretending you need anyone else’s permission. Stop pretending antitrust law has to be suspended so you can form a cartel. Stop pretending you need a regulatory approval process that supersedes product liability. Stop pretending METR is independent when it is intertwined with Anthropic’s investors and staff. Stop pretending you need those same evaluators to police competitors who aren’t even at the frontier.

Most of all, stop pretending the motivation to slow down is purely altruistic. You face massive product-liability exposure if your products enable a truly damaging cyberattack. The market already punishes models that behave in unpredictable or unauthorized ways. After the Hugging Face episode, it is simply good business for OpenAI and Anthropic to trade some raw power for reliability and predictability. Call it alignment if you want. It is also just giving customers what they want.

Pacing the frontier would also create breathing room for a more intelligent conversation about regulation than Bernie Sanders’ “shut it all down.” China is very unlikely to join a global agreement, as you know, and that has to be taken into account as well.

So go ahead and pace the frontier. You are the ones setting it. The easiest way not to build superintelligence is for you to agree not to build it. Demanding your preferred regulatory framework as the price of that will look like blackmail of the public and the political system. So just do it.

If you do, you’ll buy goodwill for the next conversation. If you don’t, we’ll know this was just another bid for regulatory capture — or an election-season psyop.

Exciting day for NVIDIA and @huggingface.

Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty. They allow every developer, startup, university, industry and country to build with, customize and benefit from AI.

Thank you @ClementDelangue for coming to me.

NVIDIA is going to be a great home for Hugging Face, its community and the future of open models. 🤗

Overwhelming support for open source

Satya is right

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

This has my full support.

Jensen is right.

We've been driving one of the biggest changes to the conda ecosystem since its inception: repodata v3.

Extras, conditional dependencies, and variant flags, expressed directly in the repodata. Now in beta 👇

[Mitchell Hashimoto @mitchellh]

Mind boggling to me that I can make a thing faster and there's always people that ask "but why?" What kind of mentality is that? The pursuit of excellence does not need justification. Also, I find in so many cases, we can't know the impact of an improvement until we do it.

For example, one I've talked about before: Ghostty's high IO throughput has enabled terminal program (emulator and TUI) fuzzing at a speed thats incomparably fast to prior solutions. This has resulted in upstream patches to resolve issues in popular projects like btop, tmux, and more.

Speed enabled that anecdotally example that lifted the tides of adjacent communities that don't rely on Ghostty technology at all. I didn't predict this.

Make things better because they can be better and let the results naturally play out.

At OpenAI, we're continuing to bet on Rust as the future of systems programming.

I'm proud to announce that we're making a $600,000 commitment to the Rust Foundation, which combines our Platinum membership with additional support for maintainer efforts across the Rust ecosystem.

Our not-too-secret project allows Pixi to depend on packages built from source. Build graphs, multi-language support and more are handled transparently. Sounds great, doesn't it? Then let us finally introduce it officially! https://t.co/Lbm1kRLhPR

[Jason @jhwohlgemuth]

@browseros_ai looks neat.

I have not used it extensively yet, but it is pretty cool you get 50 credits every day. Linux support is also really important.

I will be using it and comparing it to @comet (which I really like).

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

True

[U.S. Marines @USMC]

Chuck Norris didn't join the Marine Corps...the Marine Corps applied to him.

Heaven’s streets have always been guarded by Marines. Today, Chuck Norris reported for duty.

We mourn the passing of Chuck Norris, a @usairforce veteran, who also became an honorary Marine in 2007 when awarded the title by then Commandant of the Marine Corps, Gen. James T. Conway.

Chuck Norris is one of just over 100 individuals to be awarded the title of Honorary Marine in the entire 250-year history of the Corps.

Some missions may require a battalion, but this one just requires an Honorary Marine.

Before agents and automation, get the basics right: #metadata, validation, discoverability.

#CKAN has done this since 2006.

Still working in 2026.

Proven, boring, working.

A goal of formal verification is to actually reduce your security cost by putting a robot 🤖 in your CI auditing every input, all the time.

[Formal Land 🌲 @FormalLand]

A good reason not to write tests.
