Joined December 2006
Empire of AI by @_karenhao is by far the most accurate telling of the era when I was at OpenAI, which was an important few years – from the first commercial step to shortly after the launch of ChatGPT. There is one important piece that is incorrect: the portrayal of @sama He’s

Am a collector
After a formative time at OpenAI, I’m launching Maison AGI (@maisonagi), a fashion house creating cultural artifacts for the AI era. Our first collection, Relic of Thought, is a collaboration with Ilya Sutskever (@ilyasut), featuring his original artworks alongside a signature

At Generalist, we’re working towards a future where robots can do anything. To that end, the robots build now, too. We’ve trained a robot to do one-shot assembly, constructing Legos end-to-end: no custom engineering, just pixels in → Lego copies out.

Excited to have our AI research published in @Nature today. Proud of the @ProfluentBio team and the extensive final version available under open-access. OpenCRISPR is a milestone. It's the first successful demonstration of editing the human genome with a molecule fully designed
We’re excited to share new data published in @Nature detailing the impressive activity, specificity, and low immunogenicity of our AI-designed CRISPR-Cas proteins, including OpenCRISPR-1. The future of gene editing is here and we’re scaling our capabilities to tackle the

I’m really excited to announce @GeneralistAI_ ! Our mission is to make general-purpose robots a reality. Getting to this “ChatGPT moment” of robotics requires thinking deeply about the entire system from the ground-up. We’ve spent the past 1+ years focusing on dexterity, pushing
Today we're excited to share a glimpse of what we're building at Generalist. As a first step towards our mission of making general-purpose robots a reality, we're pushing the frontiers of what end-to-end AI models can achieve in the real world. Here's a preview of our early

Ali and team at @ProfluentBio release ProGen3, showing: 1. scaling laws for generating biology with AI 2. emergent capabilities as models scale 3. single-shot design of antibodies for 20 drugs that have $660B in sales 4. design of a compact gene editor
What could scaling unlock for biology? Introducing ProGen3- our next AI foundation models for protein generation. We develop compute-optimal scaling laws up to 46B parameters on 1.5T tokens with real evidence in the wet lab. +we solve a new set of challenges for drug discovery

The same trajectory that took us from GPT-2 to ChatGPT is playing out in robotics and biology: Era 1: it's a toy, easily dismissible Era 2: starts to become useful, not valuable Era 3: useful, starts to become valuable Era 4: valuable In a decade marginal cost of labor for many

"These models, they just wanna learn" Whether letters, code, amino acids, or robotic controls, a token is a token. And with scale, it's all going to work

Here's a reporting exploring the efficacy of online CBT interventions relative to traditional CBT https://t.co/8UzSniy7H1

Online cognitive behavioral interventions achieve equivalent clinical outcomes to face-to-face therapy for anxiety disorders, while utilizing fewer resources and maintaining long-term improvements.

Give Elicit a question and the product gathers papers that could be of interest, creates its own screening criteria and filters the papers based on this, extracts data, and synthesizes all of the findings into a report. All autonomously.
