A model is a [lesser fidelity representation] of a [greater complexity, often higher dimensional, object or system of objects]. Models exist to strip away complexity in order to fit within constraints. By stripping away complexity by reducing fidelity to reality, models…

For this, I’ll speak bit imprecisely and group LLMs with current visual world models under the same point. For the rest of this, I’ll only say LLMs. You should work on, and you should work with LLMs. The key to this conclusion is understanding that LLMs are a transitional…

A lot of the current AI infra build out is at the wrong part of the ultimate physical stack. All of it will be needed, but other parts of the stack will be needed sooner. The current build sequence is out of sequence. That is why, for a time, there will very likely indeed…

Friendly reminder that a market cap is not liquidity, and reality can only, ever, resolve to actual liquidity. Whether that liquidity is denominated in dollars, in kilowatt hours, in oz of juice, shares of equity, or hours of compute, actual liquidity is the constraint and how…

The word ”Kernel“ just might provide the most obvious example for why natural language is used by humans with inadequate fidelity to build (or even be the most foundational data of) the final form of ASI.

From NATO countries actively shooting down Russian ordinance in their own sovereign airspace, to the assassination of a nationally known speaker at a political event on a university campus, today is not a day that any of us humans should look on blithely or callously. Days like…

The scaling laws have not plateaued. The models are still capable of modeling and producing better outputs under current architectures. (Even though yes there certainly are significant architectural improvements ahead as well) The race to make observations and record those…

"Asserting a rule" and "actually enforcing a state of being" are completely different things. Very often the "rules" people assert lead to vastly different, and varyingly stable, "states of being" than the people issuing the rules intended or even comprehended. The…

On AI safety Humans are horrible creatures: Humans treat each other poorly. Humans treat themselves poorly, even when they are solitary and alone. In the first place humans are ineffective when they try to be effective. In the last place, humans are actively harmful and…

It took longer for someone to put together a video like this than I thought, assumed it would have been posted on day 1 of veo3 haha. Mechanism of creation vs meaning of creation. Feels deep, but it's the oldest conversation, ongoing youtu.be/BLfV4sidcJM?fe…

Everything that you could previously assume to ground yourself in reality no longer applies. The world is new. The world is wild. The world is unsafe and terrifying. This is a moment of inflection bounded by both growing danger and massive opportunity. Everything is…
