We’ve passed the point of no return. Using Fable 5 non stop last couple of days made that obvious. From here, the tension between AI labs, governments, and nations only escalates. Buckle up.

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.

The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.

Access to all other Claude models is not affected.

We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

@Jason @DavidSacks The existing data allows cherry picking on either side.Things will become clearer in few months I suspect.

And entrepreneurs by definition need to aim for scifi like concepts now and be fearless about it. Else you are not even trying.

[OpenAI @OpenAI]

AI can give researchers the freedom to pursue “crazier” ideas.

For Terence Tao, AI creates more room to experiment, test unexpected paths, and discover what might otherwise stay out of reach.

Self driving labs. Has a certain ring to it.

@adityaag I grew up on a healthy dose of Scorsese and Tarantino. Dhurandhar 2 had no business going that hard, couldn’t stop thinking about it for days.

@Figure_robot It is mesmerizing to watch , I have to admit

[Vaibhav Mathur @Vaibhavmathur]

@MollySOShea @adcock_brett @Figure_robot Great answer , Contact is my all time favourite sci fi too!

Wow. Have to try this!

With the Autodesk Fusion connector, designers and engineers can create and modify 3D models through conversation.

New post: on Jan 14, I predicted that SWE time horizon by EOY would be ~24 hours. Now I think it'll be >100 hours, and maybe unbounded. For the first time, I don't see solid evidence against AI R&D automation *this year.* Link below.
