Compare that to a software bug where when the code runs, it does something verifiably wrong. That bug is gonna be much easier for AI to fix than the much more intangible marketing issue. And while I don't believe that that means that this sort of self-driving should be enginee...

“It's time you add agents that feel like teammates. Hire yours at HyperAgent, built by the team at Airtable. Claim your $1,000 in inference at hyperagent.com/AIDailyBrief. All right. So I think this is both a super interesting case study, but also even more than that, frankly, ...”
“Yeah, thank you. I love the game Chroma Chameleon. If you haven't played it or seen videos of it, the videos are absolutely hilarious. It's like a prop hunt where you run around as a character and you kind of pose and then you paint on yourself to try to blend in with your sur...”

“so I'll go back even to, I think, the question I answered, I feel like many moons ago, where I said there were 2 paths, right? And we sort of went down the first path. The second path is this inference side of the house, right? Which is basically the AI application, right? You...”
“And I think that's fine. But like in some ways, it's all about an application that's AI-centric, right? And agentic happens to be one type of that. But all of it will sit on some aspect capabilities of an inference call, basically leveraging all those models that we just built...”
“Truel told staff that Cursor would aim to become a top-tier model developer in their own right, not exclusively limited to AI coding. Indeed, in the short term, he aimed to produce a state-of-the-art model by the end of the year, and by 2027, he wanted to accrue a significant ...”
“Now, this new sales pitch aligns directly with Satya Nadella's recent commentary on the risk to corporate data in the AI era. The not-so-subtle subtext of this post, and one that he published a couple of weeks ago, was that companies shouldn't trust OpenAI or Anthropic with th...”
“Yeah, well, I think, you know, some of the people who are kind of looking at this are, are looking— and who was it? It was, um, Dan Shipper from Every had an analogy that stood out for me about GPT-5.6 being like a Porsche, um, whereas Fable is like something that offers like ...”
“Yeah. Oh yeah, that's one of the things that I noticed with the Louie is kind of like, well, you know, it's not like it's running into things, but if there's no room for it to go, then it's not going to go.”

We are seeing the opportunities for AI-based applications to evolve and grow into a similar way that cloud-based opportunities back in the early days grew and evolved
When you, when you talk about that kind of AI-centric approach that you're taking, With a lot of people, and we certainly are guilty of it on the show, like people here, for a long time we were talking about the latest models coming out and we were in that. And the last year i...
🔬 The Lab of the Future Should Feel Like a Data Center — Andy Beam & Rafa Gómez-Bombarelli, Lila Sciences
We think that like the lab of the future should feel like a data center, rows of server racks as densely packed as possible and also as energy efficient as possible and things like that.
This is going to be a boring and obvious one, but like, um, there's a metric that you use to track how efficient your training runs are. Um, it's called mean flop utilization or MFU. So the GPU comes with an advertised like peak flop throughput, which is under the best situati...

Is Kimi K3 Really Fable Class?
In fact, as we've been discussing fine-tunes of open models like Cursor's Composer 2.5, they tend to be built around a KIMI base. On Wednesday, the KIMI K3 teaser started coming in a serious way. AI leaker Leo Synthwave wrote, I think KIMI K3 is going to shock some of the Chin...
As for features, KIMI-K3 supports a million-token context window and native image inputs alongside text. It uses a mixture of experts architecture, which has become standard for both open source and proprietary models since it was introduced by DeepSeek. And the benchmarks, we...
But it's not as cheap as free and probably too big to run locally unless you're like some sort of billionaire who fights robots in their spare time. You know, robots like this.
It could be hitting next week. And wouldn't that make sense, Gavin? As we see, everybody goes open source, open weights, open this. It's always 6 months behind. And now look at this.

The Future of AI Infrastructure with CoreWeave
I think we will go through the same progression with AI and probably faster to the point where we will have AI engineering teams at every single enterprise company
Earlier, you talked a little bit about how us humans, the meatbags, are harder to change in terms of adapting to a new process or adapting to to use new technology. The last 2 are very, very interesting because changing roles is key. And I think this is probably the hardest th...

Is Kimi K3 Really Fable Class?
Will China start to care about cyber risk? Since policy has been emergent, I guess no one knows. All of this points to the need for some sort of international cooperation on model vetting. I don't really understand why she is still allowing KIMI to release such powerful open m...
a framework for frontier AI and a dawning of a new age. And what this post lays out basically is finally a way for these companies to kind of come together and maybe start to help self-regulate.
It's gotta draw differentiation somewhere. And even if the enterprises are valuable now, one of the unique things that OpenAI has that Anthropic doesn't is the consumer base. So maybe they feel it's important to actually have an answer to how to monetize that user base, and de...
