RT Chris 🚨 OPENAI PRESIDENT GREG BROCKMAN ON WHEN WE HIT AGI 🚨 Greg Brockman was asked if he agrees with NVIDIA's CEO that AGI is already here. His answer? Not quite yet, as people may know I definitely agree and align with Sam and Demi’s that we are 2 breakthroughs away but we are entering the final stretch. Here is exactly where Greg believes we stand right now: The Percentage: "I'd say I'm basically like 70, 80% there. So I think we're quite close." • The Official Timeline: "I think it's extremely clear that we are going to have AGI within the next couple years." The Concept of "Jagged Intelligence": Brockman admits we are currently sitting in a weird middle ground where AI is "jagged"—it is already operating at an AGI level for highly complex tasks, but still fails at random, basic things. "It is absolutely superhuman at many tasks. When it comes to writing code those kinds of things, the AI can just do it... But there's some very basic tasks that a human can do that our AI still struggle with." How Do We Close the Final 20%? To hit full AGI, the absolute floor of the models' reliability needs to be raised across the board. "The floor of task will just be almost for any intellectual task of how you use your computer, the AI will be able to do that."

RT Philip Johnston This was one of my favourite podcasts so far, went into a lot more detail than most! 🤓👌 632nm: We sat down with @PhilipJohnston, co-founder and CEO of @Starcloud_, at MIT to discuss why the future of data centers might be in space. After graduating @ycombinator less than 2 years ago, Starcloud just raised an impressive $170M Series A at a $1.1B valuation led by @benchmark

Just had an aha moment with OpenClaw. I'm replacing my to-do list with "braindumping to-dos to OpenClaw". Whenever I think of a quick task, I just message it to OpenClaw Not only will it record those tasks, but it will actually DO those tasks Every morning it sends me a report of what tasks are already done, and highlights the ones that need my attention This might actually be a to-do management system that works

Sometimes I send @openclaw a request and it doesn’t respond for a long time because it’s working. Anyone know how to easily cancel the request so it responds? Sending “/cancel” via a chat message doesn’t seem to work

“It won’t work”.. The famous golden words. It didn’t 6 months ago, it started working 3 months ago, it’s absolutely working now. Priors have to be rethought every few months. It’s exhausting. But if you’re not updating your priors, then you’re truly missing the boat.

This is a full circle moment for me as I’ve worked with @sama for well over a decade. He funded my first company in 2013. Then helped us fix a serious logjam during a critical funding round a few years later. When I took my second company through YC, he was president at the time, and then when I joined Founders Fund, the first deal I saw in motion was the post-ChatGPT round in late 2022. And as we started growing TBPN last year, he was the very first lab lead to join the show. Thank you to everyone that has been a part of TBPN until now. The last year has been the most fun and rewarding part of my career and we’re excited to have more resources than ever going forward.

whoa!!! amazing, congrats to the team! Jordi Hays: TBPN has been acquired by OpenAI The world is changing quickly but TBPN will stay the same. Live every weekday just with a lot more resources. Thank you to everyone that has been a part of this journey big or small. We are 17 months in and unironically just getting started.

BREAKING: Cursor 3 is now out! It's a complete rewrite to turn Cursor into an agent orchestration tool for dispatching, monitoring, and managing AI agents locally and in the cloud. We've been testing it for the last week internally @every and here's our vibe check: - The editor is fast. Cursor clearly knows how to build a desktop app. It's much snappier than the desktop apps of other orchestration tools like Claude or Codex. - The local to cloud implementation is promising. When you hand off a task to the cloud agent it will build your feature and automatically send you a demo video in action. This was a big wow moment for us. - But it's still an early product and it's not clear who will love it. Cursor 3.0 is a complete rewrite—so it's not a mature enough product for Claude Code or Codex lovers to switch. It isn't that much better. This release totally changes the Cursor experience to deprioritize the IDE—a move that is sure to upset a sizable number of existing Cursor fans. We think it's promising but in our testing it didn't cause anyone on the team to switch to it full-time. This is the right strategic move for Cursor, but it also feels like an awkward in-between stage. Their team is iterating incredibly fast, so we’ll be paying attention over the coming weeks and months as it improves. Read our full vibe check: https://every.to/vibe-check/cursor

So I am starting a podcast. (Is what I intended to post yesterday :D)

TBPN is my favorite tech show. We want them to keep that going and for them to do what they do so well. I don't expect them to go any easier on us, am sure I'll do my part to help enable that with occasional stupid decisions.

if you're running traditional marketing playbooks in an age where OpenAI acquires TBPN, you're ngmi. The game has completely changed

RT Andrej Karpathy LLM Knowledge Bases Something I'm finding very useful recently: using LLMs to build personal knowledge bases for various topics of research interest. In this way, a large fraction of my recent token throughput is going less into manipulating code, and more into manipulating knowledge (stored as markdown and images). The latest LLMs are quite good at it. So: Data ingest: I index source documents (articles, papers, repos, datasets, images, etc.) into a raw/ directory, then I use an LLM to incrementally "compile" a wiki, which is just a collection of .md files in a directory structure. The wiki includes summaries of all the data in raw/, backlinks, and then it categorizes data into concepts, writes articles for them, and links them all. To convert web articles into .md files I like to use the Obsidian Web Clipper extension, and then I also use a hotkey to download all the related images to local so that my LLM can easily reference them. IDE: I use Obsidian as the IDE "frontend" where I can view the raw data, the the compiled wiki, and the derived visualizations. Important to note that the LLM writes and maintains all of the data of the wiki, I rarely touch it directly. I've played with a few Obsidian plugins to render and view data in other ways (e.g. Marp for slides). Q&A: Where things get interesting is that once your wiki is big enough (e.g. mine on some recent research is ~100 articles and ~400K words), you can ask your LLM agent all kinds of complex questions against the wiki, and it will go off, research the answers, etc. I thought I had to reach for fancy RAG, but the LLM has been pretty good about auto-maintaining index files and brief summaries of all the documents and it reads all the important related data fairly easily at this ~small scale. Output: Instead of getting answers in text/terminal, I like to have it render markdown files for me, or slide shows (Marp format), or matplotlib images, all of which I then view again in Obsidian. You can imagine many other visual output formats depending on the query. Often, I end up "filing" the outputs back into the wiki to enhance it for further queries. So my own explorations and queries always "add up" in the knowledge base. Linting: I've run some LLM "health checks" over the wiki to e.g. find inconsistent data, impute missing data (with web searchers), find interesting connections for new article candidates, etc., to incrementally clean up the wiki and enhance its overall data integrity. The LLMs are quite good at suggesting further questions to ask and look into. Extra tools: I find myself developing additional tools to process the data, e.g. I vibe coded a small and naive search engine over the wiki, which I both use directly (in a web ui), but more often I want to hand it off to an LLM via CLI as a tool for larger queries. Further explorations: As the repo grows, the natural desire is to also think about synthetic data generation + finetuning to have your LLM "know" the data in its weights instead of just context windows. TLDR: raw data from a given number of sources is collected, then compiled by an LLM into a .md wiki, then operated on by various CLIs by the LLM to do Q&A and to incrementally enhance the wiki, and all of it viewable in Obsidian. You rarely ever write or edit the wiki manually, it's the domain of the LLM. I think there is room here for an incredible new product instead of a hacky collection of scripts.

RT Nityesh the lesson: Shouting at your AI is counterproductive. if they get something wrong, calling them slurs may make their responses worse. because they tend to feel "desparate" and try to "cheat" their way out – which can be worse than them failing to do it in the first place. Anthropic: When we artificially dialed up the “desperate” vector, rates of cheating jumped way up. When we dialed up the “calm” vector instead, cheating dropped back down. That means the emotion vector is actually driving the cheating behavior.

Hear me out: TBPN for sports

I just tried out Cursor 3 and the new interface is much better. The old one had far too many buttons and toggles that got in the way of just talking to the agent. I think this should just be the default view? Why do I need to press cmd+shift+p to use it? Ryo Lu: Cursor 3 is here. Where power meets simplicity. Works across all your projects, local and cloud. It starts simple, then unfolds more tools when you need them – so you stay in flow and in control. Enjoy!
