Open models rarely get the most important step of development: real users & real feedback. Apertus 1.5 is now in Lumo, @ProtonPrivacy 's privacy-first assistant. Chats stay encrypted; users can choose to donate anonymised feedback to our team. Let's go! ethz.ch/en/news-and-events/e…

Real cloud labs have never been tried! Excited to announce that we just raised our Series A to change that. If you want to make the future of agentic science happen, come join us. There are a ton of hard technical problems to solve to make biological experiments run at high-throughput and as automated as possible 24/7. From orchestrating lab automation protocols across hundreds of instruments to tracking thousands of well plates with different protein samples to processing and fitting millions of assay measurements to deliver high-quality data to our customers. It will be hard, but it is the fundamental unlock to use the potential of AI to cure all diseases. We'll need all the help we can get so please forward this to the most talented friends you have. We're hiring for extraordinary people across biology, software, lab automation and GTM/OPS.
We raised a $40M Series A to build the automated lab for agentic biology. Last week, we shared the work we did with @Anthropic: Claude designed proteins, sent them to our automated wet lab, and got real experimental data back. We believe this is where biology is going: AI agents designing experiments, running them in automated wet labs, learning from the results and iterating. But AI can only move as fast as the experiments behind it. To use the potential of AI to cure all diseases, we need to build high-throughput wet lab infrastructure: a “biological gigafactory”. That’s exactly what we’re doing at Adaptyv. Over the past year we’ve grown our lab throughput by over 5x and onboarded more than 100 customers, ranging from bio AI labs like @chaidiscovery and @boltz_bio to pharmas like @Roche and @novonordisk to dozens and dozens of new startups that use AI to radically speed up drug discovery.

Is getting into YC something you want to do? The next application deadline is coming up. Join us at @thejfloor in Zurich for a full day of working on your application, swapping drafts with other founders, and getting feedback from people who did it: ​@itsdavidalonso, @CreateWithBloom(YC X25) ​@eliasaquand, @vibeflowai(YC S25) @imad_mkdm, @Amboras_inc (YC P26) ​Drop in whenever, stay as long as you want. Free, open to all builders, limited to space capacity. See you Monday. Luma in comments

We think Europe needs more pro-European, pro-tech, pro-abundance, pro-optimism propaganda. So we made it. Posters, t-shirts, hoodies. Full-on propaganda. We've been handing them out at robotics meetups and clubs all over Europe for weeks, and people love them. Why we are doing this: Europeans know more about the companies in the States than the ones right here at home. We need to change that. Time for propaganda. Every poster features a real European company: 🦾 Allonic is braiding humanoids. A completely new approach to building robotic parts. If it works, a number one company worldwide, right here in Europe. 🚜 Voltrac, the electric autonomous tractor (we made a whole video about them). 🏗️ Automated Architecture (AUAR), doing micro-factories for wooden houses.  🪨 Gondor Industries, a stone mason company using robotics. And many, many more to come. This is the first of many drops. More launching in the next few weeks, including flags, EU posters and more. 👉 Get yours at prototype-shop.com For Europe 🇪🇺🔥 PS: If you're organizing a robotics event or meetup, have a student club or hacker space, comment or message us and we'll send you a swag box.

I always wondered how session replay tools like PostHog, Sentry, and LogRocket play back what a user did on a page, so I dug in. They mostly don't record the screen as video. Tools like rrweb record the DOM and reconstruct it. Here's how. 🧵

🧑‍💻 @AnthropicAI × @ETH_en AI Sprint: a couple days ago, we brought together 45 selected participants from the @ethaiclub and @ETH_AI_Center across 17 teams for a 1-day sprint with @AnthropicAI! Goal: make the most progress in a day, with a CHF 6k ($8k) prize pool on the line. 🏁

Also made it InTheWeights.com! @claudeai Opus 4.8 is most accurate for me, and only a bit outdated (approx. up to June 2024). The other models think I'm either an economics researcher, a politician, or a cyclist. Caveat: prompt is only the full name.
Fun page <in the weights dot com> Not sure what's happening under the hood, but the result seems quite prompt sensitive. gpt-5.5 thinks I'm still at Stanford🤷
