It was an absolute pleasure to give this workshop at @Harvard. Great to see some of the brightest young minds so interested in #blockchain, #AI, and the #intersection thereof. Many thanks to @moontripss for arranging it, and to @harvard_crypto for the opportunity.
🌟 This week, I was at @Harvard, giving an Entrepreneurship Talk for the Harvard @womenincs, and hosting workshops for @harvard_crypto (The HUB) with my teammates, @myronkoch and Leif Sorensen. 🧠 Last week, I was at #DevCon, where I connected with @circle’s developer ecosystem,

Yikes! 🚨 Billion-download NPM hack The 'qix' account was compromised, injecting crypto-stealing malware into core libs (chalk, strip-ansi, color-convert, etc.—1B+ downloads/week). Malware swaps/hijacks wallet addrs. 👉 Audit deps + pin safe versions now. More:
🚨 There’s a large-scale supply chain attack in progress: the NPM account of a reputable developer has been compromised. The affected packages have already been downloaded over 1 billion times, meaning the entire JavaScript ecosystem may be at risk. The malicious payload works

We're watching robotics get solved in real time. So cool. Pay attention, you're living through the singularity. You'll be able to say you remember when robots were clunky and clumsy.
Humanoids finally move like humans… and can do more than copy. [Details + demos in thread 👇] A new framework, BeyondMimic, shows how to learn naturalistic whole-body control from human motion. But then goes further by composing those skills into versatile, zero-shot

Interesting takedown of the OAI OSS model’s oddities.
curious about the training data of OpenAI's new gpt-oss models? i was too. so i generated 10M examples from gpt-oss-20b, ran some analysis, and the results were... pretty bizarre time for a deep dive 🧵

I’m surprised @AnthropicAI used this graphic for the Opus-4.1 release. All the stats are impressive.
Today we're releasing Claude Opus 4.1, an upgrade to Claude Opus 4 on agentic tasks, real-world coding, and reasoning.

incredible work on alignment steganography from anthropic fellows i've been looking for a straussian explanation of why china keeps publishing open models out of the goodness of their hearts if you do stuff like use open models to, idk, clean *ahem* synthetically paraphrase
New paper & surprising result. LLMs transmit traits to other models via hidden signals in data. Datasets consisting only of 3-digit numbers can transmit a love for owls, or evil tendencies. 🧵
