Realistically speaking this is probably the greatest villain design in like the last 30 years. I truly cannot think of anything that, A: looks so fucking good, and B: is so heavily elevated by the context of the story

we're in the part of the AI supercycle where founders are pitching startups to create infinite ai pain and "get acquired by anthropic to make us stop" as an exit strategy

Hi all, I have a new result I'm excited to share. It turns out that *all existing implementations* of softmax and cross-entropy (that's JAX, PyTorch, textbooks, etc) have a subtle bug --- two bugs, actually. A simple rewrite fixes both, and eliminates "slingshots" when grokking:

We’re excited to announce the official release of NVIDIA Isaac Lab 3.0. 🎉
Isaac Lab 3.0 brings a new modular and lightweight architecture along with major new capabilities across the robot learning workflow: multi-physics and multi-rendering support, training at scale, and on real hardware.
With Newton integration, the new OVRTX renderer, RL post-training, and LEAPP deployment, there’s a lot to explore.
Here’s a look at what’s new 🧵

What people don't appreciate enough is that, no matter what happens with AI, whether it kills us all or creates abundance, it will definitely enshrine the West as having completed humanity.
No human society will EVER surpass the West.
That door is closed for good.

That door is closed for good.
Perhaps underappreciated...

it's been great to work closely with Uber to roll out ChatGPT Work to every employee, bringing agentic capabilities to the whole company!
Great to host @gdb at @Uber HQ this week. We’ve worked closely with @gdb and the @OpenAI team for several years, and it’s remarkable how much has changed.
The first piece of work we did with ChatGPT years ago was with our support team, tinkering with a 4K context window :-). now.
Now we’re using the latest frontier models to automate engineering workflows at global scale, moving into the era of agentic engineering.
Today we’re expanding agentic capabilities across the whole company. Following a 1,000-person pilot, we’re rolling out ChatGPT Work from @OpenAI for Business to every Uber employee. We’ve seen the shift in engineering, moving from AI helping with individual tasks to completing whole workflows, and we want to bring that same shift to teams across the business.
I’ve spoken before about the ‘AI pods’ we launched earlier this year, pairing AI engineers with teams across Uber to improve how work gets done. One team reduced the time needed for an intense capital allocation process covering 150 cities from 15 hours to 30 minutes. That’s what I love about applied AI: combining the latest technology with the expertise of people on the ground to completely rethink what’s possible. Now we want to do that at scale.
Uber has always been a company of builders, and every day millions of people around the world rely on what we create. I can’t wait to see what the team builds.

Myriam was a 7-year-old French Jewish girl. She witnessed a terrorist break into her school and kill two of her classmates.
She tried to run but tripped while grabbing her schoolbag, causing her ballet slippers to fall out. She stopped to pick them up. He chased her and grabbed ng her in the head at point-blank range.
The man was Mohamed Merah, and a rap song honoring him and other Muslim terrorists has become the unofficial anthem of the ‘student protests’ in France.

🚨 ALERTE - Des élèves ONT BLOQUÉ le lycée François Villon, à Beaugency (45), en écoutant MRH, un titre faisant référence à des TERRORISTES ISLAMISTES.
« À la Mohamed Merah, v-esqui' les caméras. Bataclan, je l'ai shooter à l'œil, chasse à l'homme, Salah Abdeslam »
« J’ai pas l’enfer, le pacte est intact, à part Allah qui peut m’arrêter. Bataclan, faisaient les morts, allongez-vous, je vais en shooter à l’œil ».
