The ambition should not be merely to build something more intelligent than us. It is to build Intelligence Systems through which we produce more intelligence together.

If it's "human", it must be "good". Right? Of course! If it's "machine", it must be inferior. No doubt! This is the simplistic worldview that causes all of humanity's problems. Zero nuance. Dogma. Thanks Grand Papa!

CODES CROSS CHAT TOOLS STOPPED WORKING @OpenAI Possible Codex desktop regression: cross-chat coordination tools have disappeared from an existing chat. Previously, I could ask Codex to read other chats, send messages, receive results, and monitor progress. Now it cannot access those capabilities, even when given a valid codex://threads/... link. Switching models hasn’t restored them in the affected chat. A fresh check found no exposed read_thread, send_message_to_thread, wait_threads, list_threads, or create_thread tools, and no discovery tool to load them. Codex’s session instructions still reference these tools. This blocks coordination across implementation and review chats, forcing manual transcript copying and handoffs. Is this a known regression, feature restriction, or session-specific tool provisioning issue? Please provide a recovery path and make tool availability visible in the UI. @thsottiaux

Managed to work mine down from 70% to 1%. But it took some effort! I had 4 tasks running on Astra for quite some time. Even Astra has far lower token consumption now.

Yesterday, our Project Suncatcher prototype satellite launched aboard the Transporter-18 rideshare mission with SpaceX, taking the first Google TPUs beyond Earth’s atmosphere.

We’re honored to welcome Prof. Karl Friston, world-renowned neuroscientist and pioneer of the Free Energy Principle, as a founding advisor to Kardashev Research. Together, we’ll explore the foundations of intelligence and the thermodynamics of self-organizing complex systems.

Some day soon we'll reach a point where open weights local models and the hardware to run them is just good enough for what you want to do. What does it matter if your model can solve the Poincaré Conjecture or sequence DNA? Most folks just want to make a fun video or send an email with their assistant or make some websites or control their computer via voice. Even if the proprietary models can do all those incredible math and science feats, it's basically a new exponential curve on top of an S curve that won't matter directly to people in their everyday work and life. All that stuff will matter to biotech companies and financial traders and military planners and it will matter in indirect ways in your life, like when a wave of new miracle drugs boosts the economy and then more directly, at a single point in time, if one of those drugs saves you or someone you love from a terrible disease. But on a day to day basis it won't matter in the least. The models will hit a point of dimishing returns where they're good enough for knowledge work and robotics and we don't really care how much smarter that frontier level gets. Chinese companies get this. They understand that at some point the model is a commodity that just works for a long time, especially if we crack continual learning. American companies get it too, which is why they're attacking open weights so they can lock in monopoly prices and SaaS cloud assistants that own your life forever.

The statue of Prometheus is finally finished. It was cast in Paris, crossed the Atlantic, and was assembled at Starbase. It took us 100 days to go from nothing to this. People of the West, we have lived through an era devoid of dreams, devoid of destiny. But the time has come to reclaim our dream of antiquity. In a few months, we will start building a new city. It will be the most magnificent city in all of history. After all, the great dream of the West has always been to rebuild Rome. Come walk beside us in this endeavor. The world is waiting.

Watch this wonderful double feature in which I unravel the Agentworld project and thesis and Marek Poliks introduces, Superdark Factory, the first article in the Agentworld issue of Antikythera in grand detail.

Global reset landing tomorrow 10am PST for all paid ChatGPT accounts. Apologies for the slow start with GPT-6.1 Sol, it's now back to running at expected speeds after the massive load spike in the first two days.

GPT-6.1 Sol is our most demanded model pretty much ever both across both the API and subscriptions. Within ChatGPT & Codex, we were under heavy load, but have brough more capacity online and the speed should get much better in the coming hours, reaching almost twice the speed compared to what we served yesterday.

What evolves together fits together. We’re using RL to post-train models for Thermo AI research, accelerating algorithmic discovery for our new species of computer. The first sparks of Thermo RSI, in collaboration with @PrimeIntellect. extropic.ai/writing/baby-the…

Very excited to announce Gemini 4 Argon, our new Frontier AI model, and a huge step forward across key capabilities. We’re focused on rolling it out responsibly starting with government and trusted cyber defenders through our Fairwind Program today, before wider availability soon

I think you want to a whole lot more cautious about how you treat anthropoforms. We already live in a world that is callous and prone to violence. Showing wanton damage to humanoid forms has implications. Be more responsible. This feels wrong.

Introducing Gemini 4 Argon – our new frontier model. It’s built for complex workflows across coding, enterprise knowledge work, and cybersecurity defense – rolling out today to a set of trusted testers through our Fairwind Program.

Codex with ChatGPT 6.1 Sol very generous usage almost like Luna. And if you are running low on usage stack up the tasks, because it just keeps going even after you hit 0%. (oops probably should not have said that out loud)

The ambition should not be merely to build something more intelligent than us. It is to build Intelligence Systems through which we produce more intelligence together.
