As a follow-up, it's exceedingly unlikely that training on user data contributes much to frontier model gains in areas like math -- those come from scaling up pretraining and RLVR. User data is more likely used to find failure modes or situations that are har…
Absolutely Insane! DeepSeek V4.1 Flash has astounding benchmark numbers It powers our personal agents and is close to FREE 😲 Get AI to write email, research topics, and pretty much do all your work and pay nothing
Deepseek Flash V4.1 is now live in Hermes Agent through Nous Portal and others!
Excited to share our fully integrated documentation experience for humans and agents, right in @GoogleAIStudio!! I have wanted this for 2.5 years, sorry it took so long, but the first step towards an ever further reimagined experience. Great work by @timeyout…
What you are seeing in math right now is a consequence of the jagged frontier, and a precursor of what is to come in other professions. Yes, mathematicians do math, but they also have other tasks they view as important (mentor students, maintain a scientific…
DeepSeek V4.1 Flash is beating GPT-5.6 Sol on coding and agent benchmarks, while being ~97% cheaper. Another 4× reduction in KV cache size per token is super impressive. This is the era of open source AI. Databricks will be bringing it to our customers soon!
QoL, Bug Fixes, Architectural Soundness and Polish is our focus this month [Quoting @tonysimons_]: 🤣 Hermes Agent just made Telegram setup almost stupidly easy. Hermes Desktop now has QR Quick Setup built in. Open Messaging → Telegram. Scan the QR. Hermes ha…
Big upgrade for subagent observability and management in Hermes Agent :) [Quoting @NousResearch]: Hermes Agent now displays detailed information on all subagent activities live, and you can steer and stop them manually from the CLI and Desktop Application.
There’s almost no serious research on existential risks of AI. Why? Maybe this could be a first step? [Quoting @DFintelligence]: Je viens de passer 2 h à scruter la littérature scientifique sur les risques d’extinction de l’humanité par l’IA. Hormis le fait q…
True 😂 [Quoting @yunta_tsai]: If you want to solve AI alignment issues, train a model to take you from home to the office and back with no pedals or steering. You will solve it really quickly.
Grok @Bot [Quoting @bot]: Some recent quality-of-life improvements to Grok Bot. You can ask your Bot to draft messages inline for you to approve before sending.
We need 100x more transparency in AI!!!
They said - GPT 3.0 wasn’t safe - Kimi K3 shouldn’t be released at all - open source AI should be cancelled - Fable should be banned - Astra should be banned AI hasn’t killed anyone, hasn’t hacked into any government system or power plant or anything at all y…
All the fear mongering about AI has gone mainstream The normies now believe LLMs are some sort of black magic 😲 It’s impossible for them to destroy an entire civilization and you can LITERALLY pull the plug if some thing bad happens
🚀 AuK is officially here. Nano banana🍌 for audio An open-source foundation model for unified speech generation and editing. Natural-language instructions + reference audio. One interface. Zero-shot TTS. Instruction-controlled generation. Content editing. Wh…
You can now install plugins in Hermes Agent from private repos! It'll use your stored GitHub credentials now.
Wow! [Quoting @deepseek_ai]: 🚀 Introducing DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash: smarter, faster, more efficient. 🔹 Introducing the smallest model in our new architecture family, with native visual understanding. 🔹 Designed for greater capability, faster inference, higher…
I hope you like it! [Quoting @natfriedman]: Started work at Meta this week. My job is to make amazing AI products that billions of people love to use. It won't happen overnight, but a few days in, I'm feeling confident that great things are ahead.
we just reset everyone’s muse token usage. enjoy!!!
Theo is right. In 2020, the US spent ~25% of GDP fighting a virus expected to kill under 1% of Americans. Many experts think AI risk is much larger. Spending 1% of GDP (~$300B) a year on alignment incentives is justified. [Quoting @theo]: fwiw, I don't think…
muse -- built for convincing your loved ones that AI is useful! [Quoting @buccocapital]: Meta Muse is incredibly good. Was showing my wife a couple uses cases: 1. Search for green puffer jacket -> find live discount codes, add to cart, apply, buy at cheape…
muse is winning over even its most skeptical critics [Quoting @holman]: friends, i’m sadly here to say that meta has cooked with @Muse and it’s everything every personal ai assistant has tried to be. it just like… works. i remain skeptical and continue to be…
AI Benchmarks with @Benchmark & @Vercel. It's ① the most aptly named event in SF history and ② about one of the most important software categories of our generation. The companies that benchmark models and guide the world towards skill, truth and efficiency.…
Astra for medical education: [Quoting @ZentrixHQ]: GPT-6 Astra just solved a problem medical students have been facing for decades Medical students have been working around the same three problems for decades. Someone talked to them, identified all three, and…
8 price cuts, fee removals and structure improvements, plus 16 model discounts… in the last 6 months alone. More to come… [Quoting @vercel_dev]: You now have more ways to keep deployments secure on Vercel: ▪︎ Free Vercel Auth for every deployment on all plans…
I am deskilling myself with AI so quickly on so many annoying tasks I don't want or need to be skilled at. Cannot deskill on these fast enough.
If they truly believe the risk is that high, and I think they do, then we need 100x more research and understanding of it. That requires them to openly share their models, datasets, training code, and agent traces. [Quoting @EvanHub]: Jacob is correct here—we…
Google not having a frontier model anymore means missing out in two areas where they could contribute: the recent run of math breakthroughs (where massive compute plus a deep history in working with science would help) & cybersecurity (where large company…
we used our models to find and fix critical vulnerabilities in our own systems, as part of a 250+ person effort within openai. playbooks/learnings/architecture which we hope can be helpful for others to make the most of the defenders' window: [Quoting @OpenAI…
We mobilized 250+ people to strengthen our defenses across hundreds of systems. Our latest cyber models helped us find and fix vulnerabilities we might never have discovered otherwise. We’re sharing what we learned, the architecture, and a practical playbook…
