Finished my final week at Normally, after 7 amazing years. Normally works by combining radical experimentation with… just being kind. This culture leads to impactful and meaningful projects. If you get the chance to work with them, or just meet with them: you should ❤️

I'm very excited to have joined Adept! We're building a universal collaborator – it's like an overlay that sits on top of all the software you use. You can hand off tasks to it by just... asking. Below is an early preview of some things it can do!

After much hard work, we’re excited about a series of releases coming up this fall! We’re starting with a small appetizer: we’re open-sourcing Persimmon-8B, the most capable fully permissively-licensed language model with <10B parameters. Details here: adept.ai/blog/persimmon…

Today we’re opening access to Adept Experiments 🧪, a new way to explore the technology we are developing at Adept. Each experiment is a self-contained mini-tool or demo that showcases a part of our underlying tech. adept.ai/blog/experimen…
