This seems like a major breakthrough for AI advancement
Tencent and Tsinghua introduced CALM (Continuous Autoregressive Language Models), a new approach that replaces next token prediction with continuous vector prediction, allowing the model to think in ideas instead of words.
Key results:
~4× fewer prediction steps
44% less training compute
This is insane.
New AI model from Samsung, 10,000x smaller than DeepSeek and Gemini 2.5 Pro just beat them on ARC-AGI 1 and 2
Samsung’s Tiny Recursive Model (TRM) is about 10,000x smaller than typical LLMs yet smarter because it thinks recursively instead of just predicting text. It first drafts an answer, then builds a hidden "scratchpad" for reasoning, repeatedly critiques and refines its logic (up to 16 times), and produces improved answers each cycle.
This approach shows that architecture and reasoning loops (not just size), can drive intelligence. It enables powerful, efficient models that run cheaply, validate neuro symbolic ideas, and open highest quality reasoning to far more applications.
Acceleration is everywhere
The founders in recent YC batches seem more serious. There are fewer posers and scenesters. I asked the partners what's happening. They think it's because they've gotten better at picking.
I believe we are defined, in the eyes of God, by how we treat children, who are the most innocent among mankind.
I’ve seen two stories about the secular government of Israel this morning that can not be ignored.
One, is a baby dying after the child’s family’s tent was bombed in Gaza.
And another is the executive director of Israel’s National Cyber Directorate was arrested in a child predator ring sting in Las Vegas and then RELEASED to return back to Israel.
When did the U.S. start ignoring war crimes and start releasing foreign CHILD PREDATORS???
Look I’m as PRO LIFE as they come, inside the womb and out. Some might hate me for that, but I LOVE BABIES AND CHILDREN.
ALL of them!!
This is a conversation that I am going to force.
Israel has a right to defend itself.
Sure.
But it doesn’t have a right to slaughter innocent children and starve them to death. And I absolutely have the right to call it out especially as almost all of my colleagues vote to fund it and refuse to condemn it.
Scroll down for the story about a child predator being arrested and released to Israel. Reportedly he works directly under Prime Minister Netanyahu.
I visited Unit 731 today. This was Japan’s biological warfare experimentation facility during WW2. It’s unspeakable what happened here but it’s so important to know.
The director of the museum told me there are 5 war criminals he knows of who are still alive.
I don’t care that they are in their 90s. They need to be brought to justice.
China is celebrating its best-ever performance at an overseas Olympics (40 gold, 91 medals overall), but I just did a Where's-Wally-style search on this Eurosport tribute poster and couldn't find a single Chinese athlete.
