Start by writing down what you are confident we know for sure. Ask yourself which of the fundamental principles of the present canon must survive the coming revolution. That’s the first page. Then turn again to a blank page and start thinking. - Lee Smolin

Engineering is rapidly transforming. From crafting instructions to guiding intelligent systems. We’re moving from developing software to growing it!

From text to images, then video, and now interactivity—AI is learning to build worlds as our universe does, not by micromanaging every detail, but by optimizing towards outcomes. We’re witnessing a shift in engineering from scripted to emergent goal-oriented behavior.

Fundamental theory of physics has been achieved internally.


The universe is a neural network that renders our reality. Here's a toy model of it:

Introducing Sora, our text-to-video model. Sora can create videos of up to 60 seconds featuring highly detailed scenes, complex camera motion, and multiple characters with vibrant emotions. openai.com/sora Prompt: “Beautiful, snowy…

Apple is protecting its App Store racket with the same kind of indignant entitlement that characterized Microsoft during its darkest monopoly days. They’re in full “cut off the air supply” mode in Cupertino, pursuing Epic for a $73m legal bill in a lawsuit they partially lost.…


Fear is the mind-killer.


are the doomers taking over? :(

After learning today’s news, this is the message I sent to the OpenAI team:

It's not very often that you see a company take ~10 years to get to ~$4M in revenue, and then absolutely explode to $250M+. A vision ahead of its time, that ultimately caught up to the rest of the world. This is the story of Procore:

My estimate is: "considerably less than most other potential causes of human extinction" Because we have agency in this. It's not like some sort of natural phenomenon that we can't stop. Conversely, AI could actually save humanity from extinction. What is your estimate for that…


In other news, we humans might be getting a key technology that will enable countless innovations. The acceleration continues 🚀

Regarding the SEC complaint against us today, we're proud to represent the industry in court to finally get some clarity around crypto rules. Remember: 1. The SEC reviewed our business and allowed us to become a public company in 2021. 2. There is no path to "come in and…


The narrative continues! The options are psyop/disinfo campaign, mind virus, and 👽! All very interesting stories.

A former U.S. intelligence officer claims a classified program has recovered UFO wreckage of “nonhuman origin.” @rosscoulthart and @BrianEntin report on why the Air Force veteran is taking his claims to Congress: trib.al/lqeK9pG #VargasReports



💯

To understand the importance of crypto, you have to zoom out of the present year and decade and instead think 2, 3, or 5 decades from now



This makes sense and it's great news for the world. Open source is the way to go.

🔥 If you read one thing about AI this week, let it be Google’s leaked doc “We have no moat, and neither does OpenAI”

1/The call for a 6 month moratorium on making AI progress beyond GPT-4 is a terrible idea. I'm seeing many new applications in education, healthcare, food, ... that'll help many people. Improving GPT-4 will help. Lets balance the huge value AI is creating vs. realistic risks.

Not signing. Overall, it reads to me like "we shouldn't make anything whose effects we can't prophesy, so let's begin by giving the world's totalitarian governments and organised criminals a chance to catch up". Incidentally, it implicitly confuses AI with AGI.



Huh. I wonder what else are conspiracy theorist right about?

Conspiracy theorists right again. Hmm.



Accelerate!

The US gov wants us to consider the possibility that there are UFOs out there of unknown origin. When asked if they're "alien", they say they're not ruling anything out. They been developing this narrative since 2017. What do you think it's building up to?

Wow ⚡🛸👽 This is the clearest, statement on record from the USG about UFOs (not balloons & other human adversarial spy tech) but actual UFOs! "This is not just an issue for the United States, but for the rest of the world " So important! #ufotwitter youtube.com/live/bRKmCEcbF…

Wow. Gen. VanHerck was asked if the Pentagon has ruled out unidentified flying objects (UFOs). He deferred to the intelligence community but noted that they are not ruling anything out at this time.
