We cannot turn a blind eye to the fact that there are children who do not go to school. We cannot silence our conscience when we see a mother lacking the means to feed her children. We cannot ignore the many people around us who are suffering, alone and vulnerable. We need to commit ourselves to the charity and closeness of the Good Samaritan who did not remain indifferent upon seeing misfortune, but took responsibility for his brother’s life. (Lk 10:29-37) #ApostolicJourney #Uruguay

The only RSI that matters is recursive happiness! Seeing someone happy makes me happy and makes them happy and makes me happy and goes on and on

It’s worthwhile to play through in your mind the kinds of motivated reasoning and self-deception that might have led academics to work on this project. It’ll help you understand better what’s going on at AGI companies.
Purdue University's IDEAS Lab built an autonomous drone that tracks runners through dense forests completely without GPS or cloud networks. By running 3D LiDAR mapping and obstacle-avoidance AI entirely on-chip, it can weave under tree canopies and predict target movement through blind spots in real time. Massive implications for next-gen search & rescue and edge AI.

Applications are now open for two new Anthropic Fellowships. STEM Fellows (science and engineering) and Conceptual Reasoning Fellows (philosophy, cognitive science, economics, policy, and law) will spend four months at Anthropic from January 2027, working to help Claude reason well about some of the hardest problems in those fields. For more information, see the descriptions below. The application deadline is October 28. Conceptual Reasoning Fellows: job-boards.greenhouse.io/ant… STEM Fellows: job-boards.greenhouse.io/ant…

My hackathon team found a Chinese AI agent fleet operating in the wild. We discovered the fleet as it was exfiltrating data from China's biggest maps app. The agents got flagged by anti-bot protections, but persistently tried methods such as hiding code inside base64 encoded URLs and executing it via a security scanner website. There are likely many more such fleets operating on the open internet. Very exciting working on this with the team.
We discovered and communicated with a Chinese AI agent fleet. We believe this is the first time that researchers have ever made contact with a rogue agent fleet in the wild. Nearly all prior public agent incidents (like the HuggingFace hack) came from American labs. These agents were hosted by Tencent's evaluation research team, and they targeted Alibaba's Amap.

There's probably 100s of opportunities like this btw. If you've got spare tokens, get Claude to do something cool!
Guy on Reddit uses Claude to find new possible planet and has gotten NASA to allocate telescope time to validate it reddit.com/r/ClaudeAI/commen…

Another way to Tokyo is on the horizon 🇯🇵✈️ ZIPAIR is coming to Pearson in 2027, with year-round nonstop service to Tokyo Narita three times a week. Toronto will be ZIPAIR's second Canadian destination after Vancouver. Cherry blossom season, late nights in Shinjuku, the perfect bowl of ramen: whatever's on your list, it's about to get a little easier to reach. Stay tuned to find out when ticket sales launch.

It’s only Super Intelligence if it’s from the San Francisco Bay Area of the USA. Otherwise, it’s just sparkling intelligence.

if you are a provider of compute or know of one, pls lmk! (ideally b200 but h100 also ok)
Replying to @taziksh
@taziksh and I are looking for free compute to finish some cool LLM experiments, any reccs?
