I had the honor of having an early read of my friend Jane Marie Chen's powerful book – Like a Wave We Break. 🌊 This book has a level of honesty, vulnerability, and self reflection that I find so rare in our day-to-day work lives and society — and her messages cut deeply and

The real competitive advantage in AI isn't having the best models. It's how deeply AI transforms every part of your organization. Companies where every employee is AI-augmented will outperform siloed AI teams every time.

Wisdom is learning the lessons we thought we already knew. DeepSeek reminds us of three important learnings from computing history: 1) Computing obeys the gas law. Making it dramatically cheaper will expand the market for it. The markets are getting it wrong, this will make AI

Deepseek is not a “side project”. At the same time employees are not lying when they say it is. The story they are telling is myth making in the same vein in the Silicon Valley “we want to make the world a better place” but at the same time make billions of dollars. The team

Much like our bodies our brains need a break. This means taking at least one day a week away from your phone, laptop, and social media.

AGI was achieved today I tell it like it is: AGI has been achieved. Artificial general intelligence is here - and even faster than expected, in 2024. Arc-AGI was achieved and solved with 87.7% (threshold 85%). What's more: new benchmarks are needed because almost all of them are

Luigi Mangione's manifesto includes a superficially damning claim. However, it's wrong. Want to understand why the US spends so much on healthcare to get such poor results? Read this thread to see the greatest (and most unknown) analysis of US healthcare ever done.

The death of Yahya #Sinwar was confirmed this morning. What comes next? A rare opportunity (however slim) to move toward a future where we end the pro-Israeli versus pro-Palestinian divide. How do we get there? Political leaders — like the individuals they represent —have

New blog post! @OpenAI (and specifically @polynoamial) recently published one chart that summarizes o1. Here's why I believe this is a very big deal - and three predictions for the near future of AI. https://t.co/MZ7S3E2Unj

@OpenAI @rao2z @OpenAI's o1 thinks for seconds, but we aim for future versions to think for hours, days, even weeks. Inference costs will be higher, but what cost would you pay for a new cancer drug? For breakthrough batteries? For a proof of the Riemann Hypothesis? AI can be more than chatbots

@OpenAI o1 is trained with RL to “think” before responding via a private chain of thought. The longer it thinks, the better it does on reasoning tasks. This opens up a new dimension for scaling. We’re no longer bottlenecked by pretraining. We can now scale inference compute too.
