Tesla has released new FSD (Supervised) safety data.

Miles per major collision:
• Teslas Driven With FSD (Supervised): 6,006,200
• Teslas Driven Manually (Active Safety Features): 2,031,221
• Teslas Driven Manually (No Active Safety Features): 845,915
• U.S. Average: 660,164
:
• Teslas with FSD (Supervised): 1,579
• Teslas driven manually with Active Safety: 17,775
• Teslas driven manually without Active Safety: 239
• U.S. average: 4,989,713

Total miles logged:
• Teslas with FSD (Supervised): 9,483,790,215
• Teslas driven manually with Active Safety: 36,104,958,020
• Teslas driven manually without Active Safety: 202,173,600
• U.S. drivers overall: 3,294,031,000,000

Tesla vehicles with FSD (Supervised) engaged experienced ~9x fewer major collisions than those driving without it on.

This is North America data across all road classes (highway and non-highway). The data reflects a rolling twelve-month aggregation of miles and collisions.

Everyone is talking about agent swarms, usually in the context of bad stuff like hacking. But if you ever wanted to watch an agent swarm in action (this time working for good), the discussion board of the Integer Multiplication open research repo is really cool to watch

The GOAT - so stoked for what Eric is bringing to the product
underlying CPJ data only is beaten by other people’s data products because of the underlying filtering the team does to clean up the garbage.

If someone has a good contact we don’t have it’s not in the public product but it is in the back end.

We need to never lose a contact data request

Sequencer is a very basic product and we can make it more mature by baking in the inbox health and rotation strategies we made in the agency with some more builds besides that.

Onboarding needs to be more opinionated for users that want to do outbound and TAM sourcing and CRM cleanup as there really is just a. Right way to do it in 80% of cases

Models need to be deployed into claygent faster when they get released

CLI sometimes picks odd integrations and needs to be faster when setting up workflows

For current users CLI should read your other tables and learn about how you like to build.

The product will start to steer towards outcomes so people can just ask what they want and get it and the people that want to see more of the technical things will have surfaces to actually see anything they want.

All of these are known issues and I haven’t brought anything new to the team by flagging them. I’ll just be adding what worked / didn’t work from the agency to help engineering move faster.

The team is incredibly good at spotting these things and maybe needs to be better communicating we are on top of them.

What I find the most fascinating about this post:

How much first-principles thinking goes into these seemingly simple prompts.

I don't know many people who could write

"review exists so leadership catches problems early and moves money and people to right places."
Hi, I'm Felix. I'm an eng lead working on Claude. I love watching people take flight and do things they never thought possible.

We often describe that as "being more ambitious" when using AI, which is tricky advice to follow. I wrote a tutorial:

remember when Crosby launched and everyone tried to follow by building their own "AI-enabled services" company?

yea all of them died and the only left standing is Crosby LOL

Dusting off this tweet from April because this gap in shared understanding of LLM capability is *widening*. It's now less "two groups of people speaking past each other" and more a sharp funnel.

- Napkin math somewhere around 6B people (~75% of the population) have barely come in contact with LLMs at all.
- Around 1-2B (~20%) are casual and infrequent users of free-tier ChatGPT-like products. This group sees derpy chatbots and treats them a bit like a better Google search, a writing aid, or etc. Maybe an agent tries to book you a flight. I have non-tech friends who (reasonably, imo) say they have not much use for it at all. Even many professionals outside of math&code are in this tier. For example, execs and many other functions spend a lot of their time talking to other people, so while they understand what is happening intellectually, it is still second-hand and a bit abstract.
- Now we get to professional use of frontier-grade LLMs in math&code. Somewhere around 20M people (0.2%) see first-hand that large, complex projects that used to take them weeks/months can now be completed by agents with a prompt. Building apps, copying apps, translating apps, decompiling apps from binaries... This has all happened very quickly and recently - less than 1 year ago, I was writing code manually by hand, typing memorized computer code commands into a code editor character by character, occasionally pressing Tab to autocomplete a little chunk of code.
- And finally we get to the ~5,000 people (~0.00006%) with access to frontier-grade systems internally. The external world has seen the preview. It looks like swarms of thousands of agents collaborating over weeks on software mega projects: minting zero days, running cyber attacks and defenses at machine speeds, discovering new science, advancing the frontier of mathematics. Things that would have taken top professionals in the industry years of work. Meanwhile, human review and comprehension are starting to fall behind. For example, people are still involved in the "archeology" of the OpenAI-HF incident from many months ago. Mathematicians may be poring over the 722 manuscripts on frontier mathematics for a while.

The funnel is driven by a combination of factors:
1. The impact scales with ambition, problem size, and horizon. A question with a paragraph answer barely stresses the system. You need a reservoir of big, difficult problems that you really care about. This aspect drives the consumer / professional dimension of the funnel.
2. The jaggedness of the system (which I have written about a lot separately). Capability peaks in domains that are digital, verifiable and economically valuable. This is because LLM capability emerges from reinforcement learning on verifiable rewards on a curated environment mixture driven by revenue potential. This aspect primarily drives the area (e.g. math&code) dimension of the funnel.
3. Access. Free-tier, paid-tier, internal.

So this is the weirdness of the moment. The general public has mostly not interacted with these systems. When they have, it looks like a derpy chatbot. The majority of professionals still see only a modest uplift. And a small sliver of professionals are experiencing the vertigo of the curve going vertical. And it is all happening at the same time.
Judging by my tl there is a growing gap in understanding of AI capability.

The first issue I think is around recency and tier of use. I think a lot of people tried the free tier of ChatGPT somewhere last year and allowed it to inform their views on AI a little too much. This is a group of reactions laughing at various quirks of the models, hallucinations, etc. Yes I also saw the viral videos of OpenAI's Advanced Voice mode fumbling simple queries like "should I drive or walk to the carwash". The thing is that these free and old/deprecated models don't reflect the capability in the latest round of state of the art agentic models of this year, especially OpenAI Codex and Claude Code.

But that brings me to the second issue. Even if people paid $200/month to use the state of the art models, a lot of the capabilities are relatively "peaky" in highly technical areas. Typical queries around search, writing, advice, etc. are *not* the domain that has made the most noticeable and dramatic strides in capability. Partly, this is due to the technical details of reinforcement learning and its use of verifiable rewards. But partly, it's also because these use cases are not sufficiently prioritized by the companies in their hillclimbing because they don't lead to as much $$$ value. The goldmines are elsewhere, and the focus comes along.

So that brings me to the second group of people, who *both* 1) pay for and use the state of the art frontier agentic models (OpenAI Codex / Claude Code) and 2) do so professionally in technical domains like programming, math and research. This group of people is subject to the highest amount of "AI Psychosis" because the recent improvements in these domains as of this year have been nothing short of staggering. When you hand a computer terminal to one of these models, you can now watch them melt programming problems that you'd normally expect to take days/weeks of work. It's this second group of people that assigns a much greater gravity to the capabilities, their slope, and various cyber-related repercussions.

TLDR the people in these two groups are speaking past each other. It really is simultaneously the case that OpenAI's free and I think slightly orphaned (?) "Advanced Voice Mode" will fumble the dumbest questions in your Instagram's reels and *at the same time*, OpenAI's highest-tier and paid Codex model will go off for 1 hour to coherently restructure an entire code base, or find and exploit vulnerabilities in computer systems. This part really works and has made dramatic strides because 2 properties: 1) these domains offer explicit reward functions that are verifiable meaning they are easily amenable to reinforcement learning training (e.g. unit tests passed yes or no, in contrast to writing, which is much harder to explicitly judge), but also 2) they are a lot more valuable in b2b settings, meaning that the biggest fraction of the team is focused on improving them. So here we are.
