Last night, rewatching “Interstellar” made me want to rewatch “Contact” (1997) again. So tonight, I’m watching this beloved film. We’re a generation deeply influenced by Carl Sagan and the SETI program. I’ve returned to this movie many times over the years. A father and daughter,

I'm not joking and this isn't funny. We have been trying to build distributed agent orchestrators at Google since last year. There are various options, not everyone is aligned... I gave Claude Code a description of the problem, it generated what we built last year in an hour.

Politicians are terrified about AI job loss, which they know will be colossal In the case of the Trump administration the best they can do is run out the clock and spin it — but the public sees it clearly: 1. 10m+ drivers and factory workers will lose their jobs in the next
Let's assume @DavidSacks is correct, and it's just 3% or so of total layoffs. That feels BIG to me. Not in terms of percentage, but because every AI exec/investor says we're still in the very early innings of AI. If it's already accounting for 3% of layoffs today, the losses

Don't think of LLMs as entities but as simulators. For example, when exploring a topic, don't ask: "What do you think about xyz"? There is no "you". Next time try: "What would be a good group of people to explore xyz? What would they say?" The LLM can channel/simulate many

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

I love this crossbody bag. It is large enough and small enough at the same time. It holds my full size wallet and sunglasses along with anything else that I might need. It isn’t bulky or heavy. It also fits in the Siena Rivera Tote.

I was leaving a photo studio in the middle of nowhere Chiang Mai when someone walked up like, “Yammi???” and I’m like heyyy lolll. Turns out she’d been following my journey on X about moving to Thailand, and had thought to herself, “wouldn’t it be funny if I bumped into Yam?” and

@dtherouxb @JasonVayanos In fact LiDAR is also a photon counter. Most people do not realize LiDAR is in fact a camera pairing with narrow band laser and limited resolution. To make it eye safe, the laser emitter has to reduce the energy a lot and pick a right band to minimize interference. My

@JasonVayanos We made a lot of improvement on HW4 cameras — from dynamic range, resolutions, exposure, read-out noise in low light, to surrounding materials that SNR and MTF in all conditions both vehicles and environment themselves. We think of imaging systems as one holistic package. We put

Imagine the same technique applied to autonomous vehicles. Human eyes are not capable to capture the details of frosty airflow of Superheavy cryogenic tank and 33 Raptor engine ignition at the same time. They will be blind. But modern camera sensors can. That is exactly why
Always shoot raw! Your camera is capable of more than you think. Left is raw, right is processed. A lot of detail is hidden in the shadows!
