🇸🇻 BREAKING: EL SALVADOR MAKES HISTORY WITH NVIDIA B300 CHIP ORDER President Bukele just secured the WORLD'S FIRST SOVEREIGN quote for cutting-edge B300 chips following a meeting yesterday with Aaron Ginn, CEO and Co-founder of Hydra Host! These aren't just any chips - they're the most advanced artificial intelligence processors on the planet, and they're headed straight to El Salvador's National AI Lab. 🔥 All eyes on San Salvador - the future isn't just coming, it's being BUILT right now.

SemiAnalysis' @JordanNanos predicts that chip startups will become the next wave of neoclouds, building their own data centers. "Cerebras has become a neocloud, Groq is buying Nvidia GPUs and spinning up a neocloud. Others like SambaNova are doing this themselves. We see OpenAI Jalapeño that'll go into self-build sites." "Chip companies are like, 'Not only do I need to battle in the supply chain for allocation like TSMC and the memory providers, I also need to go get my data centers set up. I need to learn about construction, I need to learn about day-2 operations.'" "Who's going to train people to repair a Cerebras wafer-scale engine and their 250 megawatts of compute they're bringing online in the next couple of years? It's them." "They need to build that capability in-house and frankly, I think they're going to realize a bunch of benefits to their margin profile for doing this. AWS and Google already proved you can do this with TPU and Trainium."

THE LATEST: Florida's Brightline has struck a restructuring agreement that will infuse the private high-speed passenger train service with $490 million in new capital while also lowering its debt. local10.com/business/2026/09…

I hate to break it to everyone, but Opus 5.5 has been nerfed starting the last few hours today. Autistic Claude speak is back, it's doing really dumb shit & this is not the same model I was using the last 2 days. Confirmed this on multiple accounts, it's turned into an idiot.

I had not realised before that the Bronze Age Collapse was literally *caused* by iron. Bronze age powers like the Egyptians, Hittites and Babylonians used bronze weapons, made by combining copper and tin. Tin was so scarce that only the richest and most powerful groups could access it and the bronze weapons it allowed. (Tin was so rare that it was being transported from Cornwall to the Middle East more than 1000 years BC.) The scarcity of tin gave these empires a near-monopoly on violence. Iron weapons are not actually any better than bronze ones – they're not stronger or easier to work with, as I'd assumed. They're just much, much easier to mass produce once you have bloomeries, which are the first furnaces that were hot enough to melt iron in a way that made them useable for weapons. Bloomeries meant that iron ore, which was widespread, could be used to make weapons anywhere. That led to warlords, bandits and city-states rising in a massive decentralization of military power, which the Bronze Age empires were unable to resist. After the invention of the bloomery, skeletons show a measurable increase in weapon-inflicted injuries. 'Destruction layers' with bones and signs of burning have been found from this time at archaeological sites including Troy. Ancient writers – including Herodotus, Ovid, and the writers of the Old Testament – believed the invention of iron had unleashed a new age of violence. New at Works in Progress, WEAPONS OF MASS DECENTRALIZATION: how iron itself brought about the Bronze Age Collapse. And what technologies could do the same today? worksinprogress.co/issue/wea…

Ah, I see the problem. Classic mistake. The right recipe is nature *and* alcohol. Not nature *or* alcohol.

The web itself has become the API Agent wars are gonna be far messier than the platform wars

aws made the industry soft. we're used to them handling all the hard problems and everyone can be a pure product company with 85% margins ai infra is not mature enough for this but everyone is pretending like they can offload the actual work to someone else it's why there's 27 model router products. even most inference companies do the bare minimum on compute someone else set up and it all feels successful because there's so much money around it's hard to justify doing the hard thing when the easy thing is profitable but the gap between what openai, anthropic, deepseek, moonshot and everyone else is huge and it's easy to forget that someone actually has to do the work to close it

Jev controls every traffic light in this city when I turn it off the average wait time rises by more than 600% we need this rn

imo jev has one massive implication for agents - sifting. your agent can use jev to check if a file is worth reading, a tool is worth calling, a website is worth browsing.. github.com/kbhuw/jev-sift

JUST IN: GPT-6 Astra cracks an unsolved German Enigma message from World War II.

JUST IN: Apple is reportedly developing an enterprise AI server powered by its own chips, potentially launching in 2029.

After co-inventing ChatGPT, I kept asking myself: why have superhuman chat models not led to AGI? I’ve spent the last 2 years in stealth building a new way to train models (RLCD), and a new type of frontier AI model that we are releasing today: Jev • 20-200x faster • 40-400x cheaper (w/ output tokens free) • Frontier composable intelligence optimized for decisions AFAICT the shortest path to AI-based economic revolution
