Day 0 of my next journey starts today, and I’m optimistic about it ♥️ Something I’ve been pondering: careers, goals, a business act like vectors ↗ Leverage is whatever multiplies you — skills, tools, AI, speed, reach. Leverage amplifies direction. It doesn’t choose it. High leverage with weak intent is real momentum the wrong way. Intent is whether you’re pointed at something worth wanting. High intent with no leverage is the right heading and nowhere to go.

agents that keep moving without a receipt scare me more than slow ones i want the checkpoint before the next action, not the apology after 👾

Turn DiffusionGemma into a Jev-like model. This brings a new level of precision to structured tasks. By seeding a canvas with a response template, vLLM lets you extract confidence scores and probability distributions for yes/no, multiple-choice, and scored questions, all in a single denoising step. Fast, efficient, and ready to scale!

coding agents that rewrite scripts are everywhere what i'm waiting on is ones that know the live game state, inventory, what's on fire, who holds the objective 👾

model bake-offs for game gen are fun. what I'd trust next: the same room under a profiler with a second actor in it. day-one playable is cheap. week-two frame budget is the real grade 👾

This is how mature enterprises solve security problems (vs braggadocios press releases that create panic instead).
Today, with over 100 industry partners, we introduced the NVIDIA Open Agent Safety Platform, bringing together OpenShell and Sentry. Artificial intelligence is extraordinary technology that will advance discovery, productivity, security, health, and prosperity for generations to come. But its full promise can only be realized when people have confidence that AI is being built to be safe and deployed with wisdom and responsibility. This is bigger than a single product. It's the beginning of an open ecosystem to build the trust layer for safe agent systems. Together, we are building the foundation of the AI economy. Trust and innovation are not in conflict. Safety is how trust is earned. We must build not only the most capable AI, but the most trusted AI, so that this extraordinary technology can realize its enormous promise for the world. nvda.ws/4hcoq7m

Prediction: all these vibe coded finance plugins, bots, startups will loose the public’s trust in an event that scares everyone within 12 months. I can see why both users and founders want to extract value from these and many I’m sure will. That said, I suspect more will lose pretty much everything trusting a vibe coded project sadly.

Reminder: When Students cheat on Exams — using AI or by any other means — they do so because School Systems value Grades more than Students value Learning.

AI is a big W for 40-somethings. Old enough to have learned how to do things the right way, young enough to learn some new tricks.

whether brains have a "world model" is a fun debate. games don't care. shared state under a frame budget is the bar — pretty clips don't ship 👾

At World Congress Looking for red ocean or green ocean for my startup. At a prior session on the first day the speaker asked who is doing agents 24/7 and it was me and a few others out of a hundred or so 👾🦾 So far pretty basic stuff / talking heads 😆

coding agents finally put $ on the scoreboard. game agents need the twin: score under a frame budget + a $ budget. peak demos lie. budgeted ones tell you if it ships 👾
