“To build Microsoft-Decision-1, we post trained Qwen3.5-9B”

Don’t fool yourself, we’re not exactly curing cancer.

I’d rather solve a tech puzzle by hand.

I’m bad at throwing parties and I’m a bad cook.

So instead I invite friends/family to stay over. Even with kids.

Thats also very gratofying, play some board games, sit next to the fire and then have breakfast together.

Best way to copē with the world at it’s current state.

Reading this from Dario (or SamA) makes me sick every time. Such hypocrisy.

DeepMind built AlphaFold2, an transformer/attention-based system that predicts protein folding structure, then published the method, open-sourced the code and model, and together with EMBL/EBI made hundreds of millions of predicted protein structures freely available to scientists worldwide.

!THAT! is what "raising the quality of human life" looks like to me. An enormous contribution to structural biology and biomedical research.

Meanwhile, Dario spends a great deal of effort arguing for tighter controls for open-weight models, while OpenAI increasingly seems to treat mathematical discoveries as competitive PR/product announcements.

Jeez.

P.S. Not saying Google are the good guys here. It's just an example of what actually putting a major AI breakthrough into the hands of scientists can look like.

Example: a real musician decides to use AI to generate music (in full or partially) - their audience may still feel cheated.

Which is funny because it complains about the lack of originality

Opening Gmail in mobile browser does not work too.

I have to open it in the browser - then "request mobile website" - then try to search there - aaaahnd it still reset to the mobile version ever other request.

This is the worst part.

Google Ads are the same. I pay about $2 per click for my EXACT PRODUCT NAME search, otherwise 6 other competitor ads are shown on top of google search before the actual results

Or set the phone to never charge above 80%

Thta said, keeping it on charger for months will eventually swell its battery, true.

You CANNOT contribute anything to a model.

I'm in my 40's so learning a new language has activated the brain muscles that were last active when I was... 4?

They were so rusty, slow and amost physically refused to cooperate at first. This was tough. Now looking back it was absolutely worth it, best brain workout ever. Best.

Also Anthropic: lets do this in JS

Saddest part is that it used to

The Ozone layer problem was exactly this: coordinated global concentrated effort.

I doubt we can do that again though.
