@OpenAI This is not a good look for OpenAI. Limiting access to the customers is not the right answer. There is no platform quite like Cursor where you can easily compare how models perform side-by-side.
Now, want to use OpenAI models = forced into Codex
Very disappointing. OpenAI is closing up. So far, OpenAI was excelling by being broadly accessible. This is changing now.
The key point of the article is correct - this hurts the customers the most, not SpaceX.
I think this will hurt OpenAI more than benefit it @sama
We’re ending our partnership with Cursor following its acquisition by SpaceX. Under our proposal, Cursor’s direct access to our models would end on November 12.
We know that the people most affected by this decision are the developers who rely on OpenAI models in Cursor. We care about their experience in this transition and we’re ready to go above and beyond to support them.

Cool shots
SpaceX engineers spent several days inspecting Ship 40 in the waters off Christmas Island. They collected heatshield samples and gained vital insight into how the vehicle handled reentry with improvements now planned on future vehicles
@SawyerMerritt There will be so many robots in the future
Well, I'm sure you're right and many will give up the ownership altogether. But not all. Need not to forget that this is a biased crowd that you've been interviewing - they are already customers of such services, they use them, it fits them and they love it. Plus, people in Bay area are on average tend to have a specific bias towards technology things.
Still I believe many won't give up the ownership. Giving up driving, though, is a different story which should be viewed separately. This I suppose will have a much wider spread. Driving is a chore for most, not to mention the safety benefits. Likewise dishwasher is also automatic, but I would like to own it, not rent.
Great question. Anything that you can reliably keep offline and it still works perpetually would actually do. It is a much bigger deal with things that are robots. They can cause you real physical harm via remote control, they can move + spy on you too. It is way more creepy and dangerous than the phones. The software can be hacked and it frequently is, so the only real protection is being able to physically disable internet for such things to ensure nobody can manipulate them without your knowledge. I believe this must be done on the side of the Law.
@Scobleizer I don't disagree that it would be great as a service, but it is also not a true replacement for the ownership.
Car and home rentals have existed for a long time. Yet many people haven’t given up owning their cars and homes, even if renting is short-term or even long-term beneficial. Same thing applies to robots. Renting a robot is the same thing in principle as renting a car.
The theoretical renting-only model for robots, including Robotaxi, is the greediest possible way (good for the company, and much less beneficial for the customer, which we see with software all over the place nowadays). It also introduces, at scale, the risk of an absolute monopoly, which, if it happens, won’t last very long as a model, since a lot of people prefer ownership, and for good reasons. Used things are never quite the same as the new ones.
And if you can afford it, you usually want to own something that you use all the time. I don’t want to rent a keyboard or microwave at home - it just doesn’t make any sense. Also, factories often prefer not to lease their machines and tools, but to buy them, don’t they? And what about leasing phones, computers too, without the ability to buy them? No, and no, thank you. It is a dystopian thing to strive for in my view.
Exactly, the coding is not the goal, the goal is to solve the problems
Jensen Huang says nothing would give him more joy than if none of his engineers were coding at all. Instead, they’re just solving undiscovered problems.
His framework is 'Purpose vs Task' - coding is just a task, that should be minimized (ideally to 0).
@visegrad24 Seriously well done! 👏
Even "just" extending the life expectancy and relative health by 10, 20 or 30 years would be a massive achievement on its own
I’m going to try and achieve immortality by 2039.
One year of time passes and I remain the same biological age.
I invite you to join me.
The search for the fountain of youth is the oldest story ever told. It’s been the dream of dreamers for millennia but always painfully out of reach.
For the first time in the history of life on earth, in just the past 24 months, the window has opened for a conscious being to realistically strive for this goal. It is an absolutely insane moment.
We currently do not know how 2039 immortality will be achieved. There are new, promising therapies that can turn back the clock decades, but they’re buggy. Sometimes they mistakenly cause cancer. We gotta fix that.
But we know immortality is possible because nature has already solved it. This isn’t a physics problem like trying to travel faster than the speed of light, it’s a biological engineering problem that evolution has cracked multiple times.
The freshwater hydra constantly regenerates its own cells and doesn’t succumb to senescence. It is effectively ageless. The "immortal jellyfish" (Turritopsis dohrnii) can revert its cells back to a youthful state and restart its life cycle indefinitely. Lobsters produce an especially active form of an enzyme called telomerase that preserves their telomeres and keeps their DNA from degrading as they age. We need to port the software to humans.
2039 is a reasonable target because of the accelerated, AI-driven rate of innovation. AI is morphing from assistant to scientist. It is powering current researchers with previously unimagined capabilities to enhance discovery and development.
That, coupled with enhanced biomarker measurement, creates a closed-loop system of improvement that will speed things up dramatically.
This is what I’ve been doing for six years. As crude as longevity technology is today, the improvements I’ve personally seen are stunning.
I started as a worn-down, inflamed, aged 42 year old who’d broken himself on the rocks of American food slop and entrepreneurship martyrdom. Six years later, my body largely operates at elite 18 year old levels. That includes my cardiovascular system, fertility, strength, and hormones.
Not all is well though. I have mild to moderate hearing loss in my left ear that we can’t fix and my brain is anatomically age 42 (I’m 48).
Still, unreal results.
My team and I did this by following the scientific method. We measured the biological age of every organ. We referenced the best scientific evidence on how to slow aging and rejuvenate. We methodically completed these protocols and measured again. Rinse and repeat.
We could do so much more and faster if we had better measurement and better therapies. Both of which are cooking all over the world right now.
To speed things up now, I’m currently having thousands of Bryan Johnson organ clones built in a dish. This will allow me to test drugs and other molecules against my biology to accelerate learning and save my body from potential mishaps.
Yes, we’ll make mistakes. Hopefully they won’t be fatal. And of course there’s always bad luck to contend with. But I trust in fate and I believe that destiny is going to grant the human race the pleasure of achieving the ultimate: immortality.
While immortality would certainly be cool, the real (secret) objective is to focus our collective attention on a positive goal. Something that helps us feel hope and excitement for the future. I personally love the idea of having a child-like mind, 18-year-old physical vibrancy, and a lifetime of wisdom.
This 2039 goal is as much about AI as it is about us humans. It’s about how we survive giving birth to superintelligence. It’s kind of a big deal. We haven’t done it before. A lot can go wrong.
I figure that one of the best ways to improve the probability that we build safe AI, and don’t kill each other in the meantime, is to transform our shared aspirations from yolo to don’t die.
Right now, we are a suicidal species. We do all kinds of really primitive shit. We unnecessarily kill ourselves with what we eat and how we live our lives. Companies make profits from killing other people with their products. We trash the only home we have. We celebrate these things as virtue. It’s really fucked up and backward. Soon enough we’ll realize just how infantile we are right now.
The 2039 goal points us in the right direction.
To say yes to life and no to death. Defiance even.
If you’re interested in doing this with me, I’ll continue to share everything I do for free. I’m also going to build this out in Blueprint. We’ll help you do exactly what I’m doing, at a fraction of the cost and effort, alongside an aligned and motivated community.
I think this is the coolest goal imaginable. I find it hard to believe that of all the people who’ve lived, it’s us who get the opportunity to have this moment.
I pray that we have the courage to appreciate the sacredness of our existence. I pray that we will be brave enough to defend her amidst the onslaught of all the forces that would try to end her.
We don’t know, but we may be the only intelligent life to exist in our corner of the galaxy. I pray we will be warriors, caretakers and stewards of existence and honor the gift that has been bestowed on us.
Super, that's exciting news!
BREAKING: Tesla Model Y Robotaxi with literally no one in the car spotted driving itself on public roads in Austin, Texas!
A new age has begun 🤖
Pretty cool
Fit-to-size packaging is getting smarter! 📦
Sparck Technologies is using 3D scanning to measure each order and automatically create the best-fitting box
So no oversized packaging, no wasted space, or at least less!
The system scans the items, builds a custom box, and packs the order automatically. Less waste, lower shipping volume, and fewer air-filled boxes going out the door.
eCommerce is growing constantly for years, as we order more from the internet, so it's important to optimize packaging.

Jensen Huang: “The best career advice I got was from a gardener”
“Very few people know this but I don’t wear a watch,” Nvidia founder Jensen Huang begins. “And the reason I don’t wear a watch is because now is the most important time. Just dedicate yourself to now.”
Jensen explains by telling a story:
“The best career advice I got was from a gardener. I was on a family trip in Kyoto, and we went to the temple that had the largest moss collection in the world . . . All of the moss is perfect, and every species of the world’s moss is there. It was a hot summer day — anybody who’s been to Kyoto knows how incredibly hot it is during the summer — and my family walked by this old man who was squatted down working on the moss with a bamboo tweezer. His bamboo basket was nearly empty with only two or three small pieces of dead moss.”
“What are you doing?�� Jensen asked the old man.
“I am taking care of my garden,” the old man replied.
The old man told Jensen that he has been working on the garden for almost 30 years.
“But this garden is so big and your tweezer and basket are so small. How can you take care of the whole garden?” Jensen asked.
“I have plenty of time,” said the old man.
Jensen reflects:
“That’s the best career advice I can give you. Most of the time I wait for things to come to me. I’m rarely chasing things. I don’t have a watch. I’m focused on now. I’m enjoying my job. I’m the longest-running tech CEO in the world . . . Dedicate yourself to learning all the time, doing the best possible work you can, and leave everything on the field. By the time I go to bed I’m exhausted, and I’m happy about my day because I did everything I could . . . You’ll be surprised. I’m not at all ambitious. I don’t aspire to do more. I aspire to do better at what I’m currently doing. I’m not reaching for more. I wait for the world to come to me.“
He continues:
“People who know me also know that Nvidia doesn’t have a long-term strategy. We have no long-term plan. Our definition of a long-term plan is, ‘What are we doing today?’ . . . You have plenty of time. Enjoy your work. Do the best you possibly can. Just keep learning every day, and good things will come to you.”
hey rich people, you shouldn't be spending more than $50,000/yr on top tier health care. Even an all-out at-home clinic like mine is ~$300k.
The most powerful health and longevity therapies available to you are no alcohol, finishing eating 4 hrs before bed, screens off 60 min before sleep, 7+ hours of sleep, morning light, avoiding junk food, eating from the Don't Die food guide and exercising every day.
These alone will move the needle more than any IV drip, stem cell, exosome, or any other fancy protocol out there.
If you're going to spend money, spend it wisely:
+ Measure your biomarkers
+ Create a hypothesis on effect
+ Do the therapy
+ Measure again to determine the efficacy
Awesome moon view today!
The eclipse starts in ~90 min. At first it’ll barely be noticeable, as only the outer portion of Earth’s shadow (penumbra). The real show begins once the umbra begins to pass across the moon’s face about an hour later.
If it is night for you during this period, you can see it!
No supervisors in Robotaxi within 1-2 months!
@farzyness As soon as we feel it is safe to do so.
Probably within a month or two. We continue to improve the Tesla AI with each mile driven.
Simply amazing!
World's first autonomous delivery of a car!
This Tesla drove itself from Gigafactory Texas to its new owner's home ~30min away — crossing parking lots, highways & the city to reach its new owner
The first-ever self-delivery of a car to a customer has just happened today. Remarkable!
There were no people in the car at all and no remote operators in control at any point. FULLY autonomous!
To the best of our knowledge, this is the first fully autonomous drive with no people in the car or remotely operating the car on a public highway.
