@thisdudelikesAI LLMs don’t reason. Here’s the proof. Run the Lisbon Effect:
‘Best footballer?’ → Messi.
‘…my Lisbon friend asked?’ → Ronaldo. 
No sentience, just context drift. Anthropic’s desperate. Don’t buy it.

@antoniosarosi Python has roughly 189 times more available data than Rust. This mirrors GitHub trends, where Python files vastly outnumber Rust due to its broader adoption. The volume of Python samples, as reflected in the share of training data by lines of code, directly affects AI performance on related tasks. Rust therefore lags behind, making a full switch impractical without accepting significant gaps in capability and noticeable performance degradation. Source: https://t.co/4XhEGaAlDj

Ketanji Brown Jackson graduated magna cum laude from Harvard-Radcliffe College and cum laude from Harvard Law School where she was an editor of the Harvard Law Review. She had 20 years experience as a lawyer and 10 years experience as a federal judge when she was nominated for the Supreme Court. They called her a DEI hire. Mark Wayne Mullin has a high school diploma and a 2 year community college degree in construction management, no military or law enforcement service, and was a cow-calf rancher. He was nominated by Trump as the secretary of Homeland Security. They have the caucacity to call this meritocracy.

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. https://t.co/NcP1HlZana

🇺🇸🇮🇷 BREAKING: US Eyes Kharg Island — Iran’s Oil Lifeline Could Be Crippled US officials are reportedly considering plans to seize Kharg Island, Iran’s primary oil export hub in the Persian Gulf, handling over 90 % of the country’s crude oil exports through its deep-water terminals, storage tanks, and undersea pipelines. The island sits 25 km off Iran’s mainland and covers roughly 20 km², a compact but critical choke point for Tehran’s energy lifeline. Analysts warn that losing Kharg would be an economic and strategic nightmare for Iran: ◽Oil revenue collapse: The island funnels nearly all of Iran’s crude exports, a seizure would slash government income and cripple military funding. ◽Global energy shock: A halt in Iranian oil would tighten global supply and spike prices overnight. ◽ Regional escalation: Any attack or occupation could trigger fierce resistance and ignite wider Middle East conflict. Control of 20 km² in the Gulf could turn into a geopolitical earthquake, proving how a small island can carry massive consequences for Iran and the world.

I packaged up the "autoresearch" project into a new self-contained minimal repo if people would like to play over the weekend. It's basically nanochat LLM training core stripped down to a single-GPU, one file version of ~630 lines of code, then: - the human iterates on the prompt (.md) - the AI agent iterates on the training code (.py) The goal is to engineer your agents to make the fastest research progress indefinitely and without any of your own involvement. In the image, every dot is a complete LLM training run that lasts exactly 5 minutes. The agent works in an autonomous loop on a git feature branch and accumulates git commits to the training script as it finds better settings (of lower validation loss by the end) of the neural network architecture, the optimizer, all the hyperparameters, etc. You can imagine comparing the research progress of different prompts, different agents, etc. https://t.co/YCvOwwjOzF Part code, part sci-fi, and a pinch of psychosis :)

AI long-form video generation is rapidly improving. I got early access to @UtopaiStudios new PAI model, and it has blown my mind about what's possible. I really like their editing tools. Will continue to test this out and share more fun examples. https://t.co/Vw3wdXMwPh

New research: FlashAttention-4 FlashAttention-4 achieves up to 1.3x speedup over cuDNN 9.13 and 2.7x over Triton on B200 GPUs with BF16. FlashAttention-4 co-designs algorithms and kernel pipelines for Blackwell GPUs, where tensor core throughput doubles but memory bandwidth and exponential units scale more slowly. The techniques include fully asynchronous MMA operations, software-emulated exponential rescaling, and leveraging tensor memory to reduce shared memory traffic. FlashAttention-4 achieves up to 1.3x speedup over cuDNN and 2.7x over Triton on B200 GPUs, reaching 1613 TFLOPs/s at 71% utilization. Implemented entirely in Python via CuTe-DSL with 20-30x faster compile times compared to C++ templates.

New research on automatic harness synthesis for LLM agents. Great read if you are engineering your own agent harness. The agent harness is the scaffolding that lets an agent interact with its environment: tools, code execution, file systems, APIs. Building a good harness is hard and often done manually. AutoHarness proposes letting agents automatically synthesize their own code harness. Instead of hand-crafting the execution environment, the agent generates the scaffolding it needs to complete a task. Agent harness engineering is becoming one of the most important skills in AI development. Automating harness creation could dramatically lower the barrier to building effective agents.

Last night, I built a dashboard with Perplexity Computer to track the "Prepper Index" essentially, stocks tied to people prepping for the worst right now. Now, personally I don't think the worst is going to happen, I'm a positive guy, and think/hope everything works out. Also, I'm not a prepper. But there are a lot of preppers out there going nuts right now, it's all over You Tube and TikTok. And looking at the Prepper Index, it has gone up over the last week. This is a live dashboard, anyone can use it, link in first comment below.

🤯Because of Excel, a THIRD of all genetics papers published in top journals have errors, as many genes have names like SEPT2 (the official name of Septin 2), which Excel automatically makes dates. The issue was found in 2016, but still hasn’t improved! https://t.co/9E46yk82cd https://t.co/ixgppwcCoM

Every damn day, another post with a thousand plus likes for a year old "breaking" paper that should "scare everyone using AI" because of issues with "latest top models" like Llama 4 and o3. (The paper was good & multi-turn is hard, but, again, big progress since it was written.) https://t.co/9d3rYisbJ5

I gave ChatGPT for Excel and Claude for Excel a try on a very hard Excel file: macro-economic data from 1,000 years of English history across over a hundred tabs. I think both did a good job, and I did not spot errors (though I only did spot checks). However, Claude was harder to check because ChatGPT tended to stick within the Excel app, building formulas and manipulating the data in the way a person would. On the other hand, Claude used Python and often pasted material into Excel for display purposes only, making it harder to trace or edit. If that holds, I think it will generally make ChatGPT more useful for serious users if you want to audit the results. Prompt: "help me understand the relationship between the mix of agricultural products in the UK, GDP, and population, along with hours worked. I want this over the total period, and you should illustrate interesting trends with graphs and statistical analysis
