Almost a decade ago, I released a hackintosh guide on running macOS 10.14 through a VM with an x86 host. A "Hackintosh" is the feat of running macOS on non-Apple hardware, and has a history dating back to the late 1980s. At the time KVM and PCI
ERNIE 5.5 Flash Base: a 280B-A14B hybrid-attention MoE pretrained on 33.5T tokens. An open, efficient pretraining base.
Research on aligning AI with human values and intent, and reports documenting model failures.
Images 2.6 brings faster image generation, GIF creation, more precise editing, and new API controls across ChatGPT, Codex, and the API.
OpenAI built an autonomous pipeline that found, validated, and generated patches for 948 local privilege-escalation vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel.
Whenever you watch a video on YouTube now, you will likely get an advert for a scammy product. In the past few weeks I've seen:
We develop frontier AI methods to reinvent chip development, collapsing traditional design timelines, closing the loop between AI and the hardware that fuels it, and enabling a Cambrian explosion of custom silicon.
Sharing progress on a powerful type of cryptographic proof known as a zkSNARK, which is uniquely fit for provable inference.
A hands-on look at dual-booting Linux on the Nvidia RTX Spark laptop, the GPU clock throttling bug found, and why WSL still wins.
I document how I use AI, one year after my first writeup. Everything's completely different.
Yesterday’s hot paper was Sparks of Weight-Space Programming: LLMs can natively read & write neural network weights by Rikiya Takehi, Jayden Teoh, Alex Zhang, and Omar Khattab. The paper (OK, …
I am a computer science student. I got a scholarship to study computer science and AI last year and I love it! It's something that I wanted to do since I was...
The LLM revolution ran on a pretraining commons that humanity built for other reasons. Posttraining consumes tasks, not documents, and no such commons exists. If the open models community wants...
At the recent EMFCamp, I bumped in to Professor Kate Devlin who was talking a little about the AI Resist List. I think one of the useful things we can do is loudly complain about shitty uses of AI. Here's an example. As mentioned in a previous post, I'm contacting companies which send malformed calendar invites. One…
The experiments that read raw weights and the ones that fix Qwen use completely different techniques.
The LISP curse is often quoted as the reason why so few libraries and reusable components exist for LISP dialects. According to the concept, LISP is so power...
Look at the monthly numbers...
A recent paper argues that frontier LLMs can work with neural network weights directly. This seems superhuman, but it isn’t. The paper shows that GPT-6 Astra…
[This is a guest post by Karthik C. S., Amit Sahai, and Jie Xue. This blog post was initially written in a different file format and converted using AI. — T.] This is a good time for mathemat…
We find that frontier LLMs are surprisingly good at natively reading and writing neural network weights, using a variety of recent tools and algorithms or even via direct weight editing.
I tested thirteen models and found that their drafting is approaching professional levels.
I was reminded today of AI Adoption Rate Trending Down for Large Companies, a chart produced by Apollo Global Management in September 2025, which appeared to show a slowdown in …
China’s First Frontier AI Export Controls: MOFCOM Announcement No. 48 Key Takeaways On October 16, 2026, China’s Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM) and Ministry of Science and Technology (MO…
Proton's CEO called a request for security testing "loser thinking". Using AI to write code is fine, but for a privacy company, the guardrails around that code are the product.
One of my pet peeves with the web development community is that so many of the decisions we make are vibes-based. Frameworks are “blazing fast,” tools will…
Here, we’re sharing the research behind how we’re translating that to design editing workflows.
Instead of YouTube, watch HackerTube!
Edit: Woah, this took off! If you want more details you can subscribe at the bottom of the post or on YouTube. I’m working on a more detailed highlights/commentary post and video. Previously: We got Claude Code playing Factorio, Towards beating Factorio autonomously, and Faketorio: an agent testbed I got GPT-5.6 Sol…
The self-deleting VOLTA infostealer steals credentials, sessions, and cryptocurrency wallets. Then, it uses LLMs to profile victims and rank their most valuable assets.
By bypassing ChatGPT's sandbox and content security policy, our research team was able to take over anyone's account simply by sending them a link.
