The reason I didn't write a proper arxiv paper for Muon is because I simply don't think there's any relationship between the ability to publish a paper with lots of good-looking results about a new optimizer, and whether that optimizer actually works. I only trust speedruns.

I’m really excited to announce Generalist ! Our mission is to make general-purpose robots a reality. Getting to this “ChatGPT moment” of robotics requires thinking deeply about the entire system from the ground-up. We’ve spent the past 1+ years focusing on dexterity, pushing

Protect the spirit of tinkering. MIT Media Lab educator and Cosmos grantee Caitlin Morris argues the best learning is messy, social, and shared—not just efficient. Today’s AI tools could flatten that.

We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers. The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.

Holy shit. Kimi K2 was pre-trained on 15.5T tokens using MuonClip with zero training spike. Muon has officially scaled to the 1-trillion-parameter LLM level. Many doubted it could scale, but here we are. So proud of the Moum team: Keller Jordan, Vlado Boza, You Jiacheng,

Andrej Karpathy This concept of lessons also provides a natural way to close the loop between "reasoning" and "learning". If you do a ton of reasoning to solve a problem (at inference time), the output of that reasoning is some "lessons" (facts, insights, strategies, etc) that can then be

I appreciate their quick response, but this is very sus from github: They "had reasons to believe" that my account was comprised and suspended my account without even telling me And they won't tell me their "reasons", so I don't know how to prevent this from happening again

1/ Iryna Danilovych is being tortured in a russian prison. Her crime? Being a nurse, a journalist, and telling the truth in occupied Crimea. Now she’s rotting in Colony No. 7, Zelenokumsk. 🧵

A U.S. Army vet—a citizen—tear gassed, dragged out, and detained in an immigration raid. Gov. Newsom: “People are quite literally disappearing with no due process, no rights.” This isn’t just about immigrants anymore. It could happen to anyone. apnews.com/article/us-arm…

What is happening to the Druze in Syria? I am just signing back on and seeing pieces of information - hoping they are not true but fearful they are. The world must stand to protect the Druze.

When russia invades, murders and moves its people in over graves of those that murdered, they actually believe it’s their land now. #Latvia give these people chance to break ties with russia, learn Latvian and be citizens of Latvia. They call for russia to invade them for being

Apple is preparing the future of local AI: - Hidra (M5) - Sotra (M5 Pro new Mac system-on-chip, that I bet/hope will have GPU on a separate die to allow more memory bandwidth and different cooling 🤞) - Komodo (M6) - Borneo (M7)
