The northeast is winning this week:
“It looks like AI,” Maryam said.
“God has more GPUs than Elon,” I answered back.
First day without internet for quite a while and worth every minute.
Unfortunately Kancamagus Highway in New Hampshire only looks like this a couple of weeks out of the year.
Very fortunate to be able to get my three boys together to experience it, along with other family.
Even the new iPhone 18 Pro Max doesn’t do it justice.

Totally! It is our first time and it is stunning!

Prove that AI can't have a soul and afterlife.
If you can, you will find that neither do humans.

This right here is why I love open source. Binh just made reachy mini better. He could do it because the robot is so open. And now the community can take his work and improve their robots. So so so cool!
I just made the most expressive real-time motion harness for the Reachy Mini.
It was created by:
> synthesizing a massive motion dataset using Astra (over 10000 samples)
> fine-tuning Qwen 3.5 4B using such dataset
> then training a flow matching transformer head to transform sparse motion plan (<1hz) into dense expressive motion (25Hz)
The average inference time for a full motion is less than 200ms, enabling real-time interaction.
@pollenrobotics and @huggingface only recorded 85 emotions for the reachy mini. With my work, you can now prompt and animate any motion you want.
Everything is open-source; write-up and links attached below. Here is a video of Reachy explaining itself through my harness.

I turn any dumb eyeglasses into AI Glasses with this little device. Now with @Muse Gadget SDK things are pretty easy. @alexandr_wang @natfriedman
It has directional speakers, microphones, Bluetooth & Wi-Fi.
Who wants to turn your glasses to Muse Glasses?

Literally every conversation about Consciousness is that.
