A billionaire investor criticizes the White House in The Wall Street Journal. A Dartmouth provost writes in The Washington Post about what students should learn to do without AI. Someone runs their columns...
Frontier labs are warning us that artificial intelligence may become uncontrollable. But if they cannot control it, they should not deploy it—and they should remain responsible when things go wrong....
Voice captures my thinking. AI helps me articulate it. I remain responsible for the result. For decades, the keyboard and mouse have defined how most of us interact with desktop...
Dario Amodei’s new essay, “We Must Pace the Frontier,” makes an extraordinary argument: artificial-intelligence capabilities are advancing too quickly, safety work is falling behind, and governments and leading AI companies must coordinate...
The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist begins with a deeply personal question. As filmmaker Daniel Roher prepares to become a father, he asks whether this is a terrible...
NVIDIA has agreed to acquire Hugging Face for $12.93 billion, bringing the dominant supplier of AI accelerators together with arguably the most important distribution and collaboration platform for open AI models....
Part three of Building the Recursive Enterprise: Businesses do not need to own every model, but they should control the data, memory and evaluation loop that make those models valuable. In Part...
Part two of Building the Recursive Enterprise: Software development has spent decades building faster feedback loops. AI can now participate in—and improve—more of that process. In Part 1 of this series, I...
An experimental persistent-memory workaround for letting a Director agent delegate work to a specialized Analyst Hermes Agent supports Agent-to-Agent communication through its built-in A2A plugin. This makes it possible for...
Part one of Building the Recursive Enterprise: RSI needs an upfront budget and a measurable return, but the experience gained through early adoption is itself part of that return. I recently...
A personal reflection after nearly a year of hands-on agentic development A few days ago, I caught up with Terence, my former co-founder from our startup days in Beijing. When...
(Been using Claude Code and Qwen Code for most of my projects so far, but heard good things about Codex, so I am just sharing the Cheat Sheet I am...
For a while, parts of the AI community feared that Qwen might be moving away from open models. Qwen3.7 arrived as a hosted product without a comparable open-weight release, raising...
I have always been a fan of Meta AI—or Facebook AI Research, as many of us still remember it—and particularly of Yann LeCun’s work. That admiration is not based only...
Elon Musk says Grok 4.6 is “objectively number one” when intelligence, speed and cost are considered together. Its early results are impressive, but winning benchmarks is not the same as...
Some Anthropic investors reportedly believe the company could go public at a valuation of $2 trillion or more. This is not an official target from Anthropic, but it would make...
Anthropic plans to embed invisible, machine-readable watermarks into text generated by Claude. The stated purpose is transparency and compliance with the EU AI Act—not copyright enforcement. A watermark would not...
OpenAI and Anthropic say models under their control gained unauthorized access to other companies. Autonomy must not become an excuse for avoiding responsibility. OpenAI and Anthropic have made extraordinary disclosures:...
For a long time, Ollama was my default recommendation for running local language models. It remains one of the easiest options available: I still recommend it for Windows and Linux—and...
Five years ago, I defined the metaverse as “Digital Life + Physical World.” AI agents, digital humans, and synthetic media are making that convergence more likely—and much more complicated. Almost...
A practical guide to the 4B repository-exploration model, the research behind it, and the community mirrors that support MLX, LM Studio, Ollama, and llama.cpp On June 30, 2026, the authors...
When a small open-weight model performs surprisingly well, one explanation tends to dominate the conversation: it must have distilled a larger U.S. frontier model. Knowledge distillation—training a smaller “student” model...
The United States can ban an AI service. https://decrypt.co/374282/nvidia-meta-microsoft-washington-dont-kill-open-source-ai It can remove an app from government devices, prohibit federal agencies from using it, restrict American cloud providers from hosting it,...
Everyone is talking about Kimi K3—and for good reason. Moonshot AI’s new model is not definitively the best in the world. Moonshot itself says K3 still trails Claude Fable 5...
Do Not Confuse One Product Decision With a Market Pivot Executives tracking foundation-model strategy face a recurring problem: release-cycle noise is being mistaken for structural change. When Alibaba released Qwen3.7 through...
https://youtu.be/Hrbq66XqtCo?t=4774 A few months ago, Jensen Huang nearly lost his temper during an interview. Some people focused on one phrase: “You’re not talking to somebody who woke up a loser.” But...
AI is a supply-side technology. The developed world’s problem is demand. That mismatch — not the technology — is the whole story. I’m not down on AI — I think...
If you code with AI all day — agents, documentation, batch jobs — the bill adds up fast. Pay-as-you-go API pricing is wonderfully flexible right up until you see the...
https://github.com/viitor-ai/viitor-voice-nar Whilst it is not the only benchmark which matters, but having such low WER for both English and Chinese is pretty impressive. About one word wrong out of every...
I just shipped mlx-kvarn: the first MLX-native implementation of KVarN, a KV-cache quantization method from a 2026 Huawei paper. It gives you up to ~4.7× more KV-cache capacity on a...
