Gracias a @maisaAI_ por confiar en nosotros y en nuestro proyecto en @hackspain26 🫡❤️
Un saludo al mejor equipo que podría pedir para un evento como este @martinhdeezX@JinskuKripta@mateo19182
Galicia calidade (y un abrazo a carlos, nuestro polizón de Madrid)
Lo de la UPV con iPronics, DAS Photonics, VLC Photonics, Attipics, CalSens... de lo más interesante que hay en españa, habría que estudiar que hicieron ahí
🔵 OJO: Otra megarronda en el ecosistema de startups español.
iPronics levanta €108M.
Entra Nvidia. Lideran dos fondos especializados en semiconductores en EEUU: Maverick Silicon y Light Street Capital.
Nvidia entra como "inversor estratégico".
en Galicia, por ley, a menos de 50 m de las casas no puede haber eucaliptos, pinos ni acacias
cada anillo amarillo es una de esas franjas. el mapa de dónde lo exige la ley existe. el de dónde se cumple, no existía
lo he construido para una comarca entera: A Paradanta 🧵
1. Understand your own incentive structures and do not believe everything you think.
2. Deterministic mono-causality is an illusion outside of some parts of computing some of the time.
3. The dichotomy between reason and emotion is a cultural construct and bio/logically false.
My favorite moment from the entire URKL Robot Fight!
One brutal kick sent the robot's head hanging loose. and it somehow kept fighting like nothing happened!
I completely lost it. Had to lower down the volume of my laugh 😂😂
demis is ousted as deepmind CEO and jeff dean + sanjay are leaving google to start a ~neolab.
they're all being very careful to frame these as positive shifts. but there's no way in hell demis would have accepted this willingly, and there's no way Sundar happily accepted Jeff doing this as a totally independent new PBC rather than a bet under alphabet.
tough to see an interpretation other than jeff losing confidence in working on AGI under google.
very bad day for alphabet overall
Got sick of hand-tuning GPU kernels, so we built a compiler.
Photon 2.0 compiles Moondream, Qwen 3.5, and Gemma 4 into megakernels: the entire forward pass in one GPU program.
Announcing our $130M Series A to build the Open Superintelligence Stack
Led by Radical Ventures, with NVIDIA, Intel Capital, Dell Capital, and existing investors
Train, deploy, and continuously improve your own models using our stack.
Own your intelligence.
jesus fucking christ
in a world filled with artificial intelligence eventually your ONLY role will be as a taste cultivator. you are seriously kneecapping yourself if you deny yourself the pleasure of reading!!!!
we distilled 2.3M Claude Fable 5 reasoning traces into Qwen3-4B
- 100% self-consistency @ 512 samples
- 0.00 bits output entropy
- zero hallucination variance
turns out the student is not bounded by the teacher.
it also converged on one universal truth.
we open-sourced the model weights👇
Amongst my friends, Spotify is the lowest quality consumer app we still pay for. It certainly hasnt gotten noticeably better in the last couple years (arguably worse). So, this is not the positive look Ant and Spotify are spinning here.
Bigger picture, this is the problem with a lot of AI reporting. It reports completely meaningless metrics like deploys per day or LoC. Why don’t we start reporting consumer satisfaction reports? Actually end state research results.
All the no nuance AI people always come out and think that this is anti AI. Again, I think AI is great and Claude is great. But this is bad marketing and makes both look like clowns.
We just raised a historic funding round for Portugal, backed by some of the country’s top unicorn founders. And we're now looking for the best young talent to join us.
So we built something to find them. It's called Arcus - a series of trials. No resume. No application forms. Just a terminal and a problem to solve.
The first trial is live: Ode Triunfal, with €3k in prizes. Access it through 'ssh augustalabs[dot]ai'.
More info in the comments.
We're just getting started.
Hot take: They're not subsidized their margins are insane. They are just absolutely raping api customers. Anyone who has used deepseek or hosted anything and done the math on hardware/power costs knows this
We just raised $85M, Europe's largest ever robotics Series A, led by @CRV, with backing from @Samsung and @LVMH.
But this story did not start today.
Carla and Jia have been obsessed with robots since they were kids. They met as engineers at UPC, started the university's robotics club, and competed and won at an international level.
Years later, that obsession became THEKER: a company built from Barcelona to be the largest in the world, and to crack the technical problems other people call impossible.
Today we are well on our way to the goal we set on day one: solve 100% of physical work. Our robots are live in production, improving every day, and the pace is only increasing.
This round is not the destination. It is one more step in the right direction.
Thank you to everyone who got us here. To our team, who hold a standard most people would call unreasonable. To our customers, who push us to become better. And to our investors, old and new, who saw it before the rest of the world did.
If this mission excites you, we are hiring across the board. Come build it with us.
We will win.
