1) Today we're announcing Atomwell, our state-of-the-art foundation model for predicting experimental outcomes, alongside scaling laws for molecular discovery. We trained models from 800M to 9B parameters on ~80M experimental measurements, and found clean scaling laws in both model size and data.

the newest frontier is agent swarms. watch us launch 700 sandboxes -- all connected to the same file system -- in 10s, then have them collaborate and build a city on that file system i used sandboxes here, but if i used serverless tool calling? the total cost of this compute would be $0.28 the future is packing agents 40x tighter on each CPU and giving them access to the same shared file system context
could it run like this but kind of on the 'same' file system? xitter.cf/AniC_dev/status/211120…

we were in pivot hell 6 months ago around when cursor announced composer 2.5, a high quality post-train of an oss base made this diagram internally in May, earmarking open space in what will be a much larger category than coding

We are building reusable heavy-lift rockets to take on SpaceX, powered by an engine designed with 90% fewer parts. First engine hot-fired 4 months in, from a basement, for under $30K. $400M in launch reservations signed. Satellite operators: let’s talk @ycombinator

Congrats on your YC launch RATLOG @_charlieweise! An extremely fast moving, resourceful team I was very excited to fund for the F26 batch with @ycombinator. In 4 months they went from first build to a hot-fired engine, spending under $30K. $400M in launch reservations already signed (so much demand that they skipped the usual LOI step that hardware companies go through).

Very cool launch! Excited to be a part of it.
We are releasing Ultramarine 1 Flash, a frontier-class model built for knowledge work. It is open-source and achieves similar performance to Fable 5, while being 60x cheaper. It was post-trained by a team of 5 for ~$300k all-in. Available on API now, with weights releasing in 2 weeks.

Very excited about this one: Today we're launching the b12 Foundry in partnership with the High-Throughput Experimentation Lab at the University of Zurich. AI can now design a molecule in seconds, but making it can still take a chemist several weeks. b12 Foundry closes that gap. b12-labs.com/foundry

Introducing DeepRSI, a new industry standard for measuring recursive self-improvement. On preexisting benchmarks, tasks are contributor-based and short-horizon (~12 hrs). In DeepRSI, we push agents to work 48 hours on ML tasks actually derived from ongoing proprietary research.

We built an 8000 sqft. high-throughput wet-lab in 30 days, to solve molecular discovery - starting with pesticides. Most teams in drug-discovery don’t receive target-organism verification until clinical trials. Pesticides allow us to rapidly validate our model in the target organism directly. With the help of our high-throughput lab, we were able to generate compounds that killed a $13 billion pest, the Fall Armyworm. We believe that the bitter lesson is coming for biology.

Robotics has a distribution problem. Today, Ultra is announcing $62M in funding to solve it, including a $50M Series A led by @hiFramework. We believe that deployment is the bottleneck in robotics. It’s relatively easy to make a robot look impressive in a controlled environment. It’s much harder to put a robot into the open world, make it useful, keep it running, earn the trust of the people working alongside it, and do that over and over and over again. So that’s what we’re focusing on.

The world spends roughly $100 billion a year on experimentation in Life-Science. Yet, 93% of drug programs entering Phase I never reach approval. Halmos Labs is changing that See how at halmoslabs.com
