I earned a Ph.D. in flexible ultrasonic transducers so you don't have to.
Midjourney just unveiled a full-body medical scanner marketed as a spa device. You step into a water bath and a ring of chips fire sound through your body, scanning top to bottom like a photocopier. The echoes get rebuilt into a 3D map of everything inside you. No radiation, no magnets, 60 seconds, non-invasively.
So, we have AI image company that built an MRI competitor out of an array of sound. Not as crazy as it sounds.
This whole thing starts with the chips. Each one is a grid of thousands of tiny devices called capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUTs). Here's how they work.
Are AI agents shape rotators? In this new benchmark, we let the models play campaign puzzles in Opus Magnum, a puzzle game by @zachtronics.
Ironically, Claude Opus 4.8 performed poorly, being beaten by GPT-5.5, Gemini 3.5 Flash, and GLM 5.2. Claude Fable 5 crushed them all.
GLM-5.2 just scored better than Opus 4.7 and GPT 5.4 on Runescape bench.
These models were best in class only 2-3 months ago.
Open source frontier is catching up!?
I really miss writing.
Earlier this year I was writing consistently and it gave my work a clarity I really appreciated.
Publishing something by the end of the week fs, been tinkering on so many things I want to talk about
Opus 4.8 is the best Claude ever at Runescape, but isn't reproducing the feats of recent openai and google models like solving quests and finding far-flung training spots
@kunchenguid The harness is training data. RL’ing on it gives you capabilities the model alone may not have, ceding the harness means ceding capabilities
