@frascafrasca No te preocupes @ZapiaAI nunca te cuenta los tokens!

[Nicolas Loeff @loeff]

@draix @Prosusgroup Why do you think so few become global companies vs the US (~5M new businesses per year)?

[Nicolas Loeff @loeff]

@frascafrasca Estoy seguro que Mythos es espectacular, pero el anuncio creo que era un poco "over the top". Anthropic es muy bueno con estas cosas, preguntale al pentágono sino: https://t.co/jiTuePe6CC

"But here is what we found when we tested: We took the specific vulnerabilities Anthropic showcases in their announcement, isolated the relevant code, and ran them through small, cheap, open-weights models. Those models recovered much of the same analysis. Eight out of eight models detected Mythos's flagship FreeBSD exploit, including one with only 3.6 billion active parameters costing $0.11 per million tokens. A 5.1B-active open model recovered the core chain of the 27-year-old OpenBSD bug." https://t.co/yBTiiMq1Xy

@frascafrasca Es muy posible. Cuando liberen el acceso te cuento 😁

[Nicolas Loeff @loeff]

@frascafrasca Opino que si el modelo es tan bueno como dicen, me parecería muy extraño que no le puedan enseñar a no hacer el trabajo sucio de los hackers. Pueden encontrar los bugs con su modelo sin bloqueos mientras bloquean a los malos actores? Si, pero es no generaría tu tweet y los otros

True story

[Zapia @ZapiaAI]

Una amiga nuestra está en el #OpenAI #DevDay y nos acaba de mandar este mensaje. Sinceramente no sabemos por qué le sorprende... 😉

@GadiBorovich Cuando quieras, ayudo en lo que pueda

[Nicolas Loeff @loeff]

LATAM engineer: Do it. It will change the trajectory of your life. Not exaggerating.

[Gadi Borovich @GadiBorovich]

Who is applying to Puentes this weekend?

[Nicolas Loeff @loeff]

Puentes is an amazing program to introduce exceptional LatAm engineers to the San Francisco / Silicon Valley ecosystem. If you are an engineer stop reading and apply (link in thread). Thank you @GadiBorovich for another edition of Puentes!

[Gadi Borovich @GadiBorovich]

Puentes is back.

We’re flying out 10 engineers from Latin America for 7 days to…

> eat dinner with @rauchg, @mejiasebas, and @tnm
> get hired at top sf startups
> move to San Francisco

reply and I’ll dm you a link to apply

@sama Smarter! I can go for a nice walk or something it's okay.

[Nicolas Loeff @loeff]

@rasbt @ManningBooks Instant buy, thanks for writing it! Wishlist: can there be a section in chapter 5 to discuss newer algos (eg GSPO vs GRPO), reward shaping, and models for simpler feedback (e.g. KTO and BCO, not only DPO). Looking forward to read the next chapters!

[Nicolas Loeff @loeff]

@dekked_ @TIME @elonmusk @sama @finkd @nvidia @DarioAmodei Congrats @dekked_!!!

@frascafrasca Elegimos el timeline equivocado ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[Nicolas Loeff @loeff]

Zapia 2029?

[Juampi Pereira @juampi_pereira]

🔥 En resumen según Zapia AI: Uruguay tendría que copiar la receta de Irlanda en impuestos + Singapur en educación y eficiencia + Nueva Zelanda en apertura y calidad de vida, todo empaquetado con la estabilidad y la marca verde que ya tenemos.

[Nicolas Loeff @loeff]

@cartesia Congrats on the launch! Looking forward to playing with it! 🚀

[Nicolas Loeff @loeff]

@ShreyaR @snowglobe_so Congratulations on the release @ShreyaR and team! Impressive!
