This was work done last year, but my lazy ass uploaded it just this week It was huge fun working on this project.
yesterday, @cloneofsimo and I released a tech report on the video pretraining research we worked on last year. we believe sharing our experience with the community building video models will be of great help! arxiv.org/abs/2603.00173

Oh..
“An accumulation of facts is no more a science than a heap of stones is a house.” - Poincaré LLMs are now proving results that have resisted mathematicians for decades. Finding interesting theorems without human guidance is a new bottleneck. We show that we can teach an LLM to do it! TL;DR: → a quantitative notion of interestingness → 4.3× higher interestingness → a self-expanding discovery loop [1/5]

Ive slowly came to realization that more and more people hate AI. Artists hate it, programmers hate it, mathematicians hate it, and everyone thats currently impacted in business hate it. It used to be small number of people, but its quite a lot now. I've been truely in a bubble because for past one year ive just met my peers in AI field / my workplace and my close friend, and noone else outside my existing network group. Ai researcher is slowly becoming most hated occupation and I dont know what / how to feel about it. We now have some big obligation to 'make it all work', i.e., permanent upperclass for everyone, or get hanged.

and you know what? the hate is justified. The typical critisim that they are copying the existing work and replacing the orignal creaters, the idea of it, does feel like a theft. We always try to argue that its "fair use" and all learning happens in similar manner, but its unconvincing when its replacing. Also everyone is escalated so its hard to have sane / logical conversation. This feels like 'the' alignment problem we need to solve, first. UBI seems inevitable in the end, but I just cannot imagine that happening without complete global & political-mess.

FWIW, i dont think the current state & future state of AI will completely replace human. and there will be many ways human will have non-zero value add. But significant disruption seems inevitable in the middle of the process, including significant job transition

Wow this is great work!
We will be presenting this at NeurIPS in Paris in December! 🇫🇷 📉

Man this is g**y ma***s level depressing. litmus test of wishful thinking if there was one.
Another litmus test. You can send one of the following back in time to Euclid: 1) the entire math corpus (translated say) 2) the best current frontier LLM as a black box Your goal is to math/acc. Which do you choose?

Its over. From now on everything will be invented by Sakana AI.
Sakana AI welcomes Jürgen Schmidhuber as Chief Scientific Advisor. sakana.ai/schmidhuber/ Sakana AI is incredibly proud to announce that Jürgen Schmidhuber, universally recognized as the father of modern AI, is officially joining Sakana AI as Chief Scientific Advisor. For nearly four decades, Jürgen has explored how machines can learn to learn. His foundational work in the 1990s drove core advancements in deep learning and established early frameworks for world models. Crucially, his pioneering innovations in meta-learning opened the very path toward recursive self-improvement. These ideas have already shaped our own research, from the Darwin Gödel Machine to The AI Scientist. Now Jürgen will help guide our newly formed RSI Lab, whose objective is to trigger a compounding cycle of scientific discovery aimed at improving machine intelligence. We are assembling a critical mass of world-class experts in Tokyo to make this a reality. Welcome, @SchmidhuberAI !

I think now I understand why anthorpic hired @gallabytes (the og midjourney researcher) They somehow managed to inject midjourney-ness into... javascript?

Absolutely no hate to arxiv, I appreciate everything theyve done. this is just genuine question but why does arxiv need 17.2M$ to maintain its exact same website that didnt change for 20 years? Like surely you just need couple servers? Not like they are using CDNs for this Can someone clue me on this
arXiv has received a 17.2 million investment from three leading philanthropic organizations. Thank you to Simons Foundation International, Siegel Family Endowment, and XTX Markets for your support of arXiv! Read more: blog.arxiv.org/2026/09/23/ar…

i fully acknowledge that i am ignorant and I dont know the financials behind how the website is operated / what they do behind the scenes so im just curious why maintaining what is seemingly completely static website costs this much. Not an attack or anything

"They arent going to cure cancer, stop falling for it" guys are going to have a hard time, just as much as "They arent going to solve millennium problem" guys last year.
Claude has discovered a previously unknown enzyme system hidden in the DNA of bacteriophages. Beside the enzyme’s gene sits a long array of repeating DNA—a structure that looks somewhat similar to CRISPR. We don’t yet understand what this system does, but only a handful of known systems share its features, and all of them are able to cut, copy, and paste DNA. Historically, the discovery of such programmable systems has helped revolutionize medicine. CRISPR, for instance, is now the foundation of genetic medicines. But it will take much more work to learn what this system does, and whether it can be put to similar use. Read more: anthropic.com/news/claude-di…

wow comment section here has exact same response back when people claimed same method that made o1 do high school math, could be eventually used to solve millenium problems. People are really just really really bad at seeing matterns and adapting to exponential. kinda sad really.

Absolutely stunning. Congrats to whoever was in charge of visual-maxxing claude
Claude Opus 5.5 drew every frame of this animation in JavaScript. Everyone in town sends Claude their requests, but one girl sends a question instead: "What do you love?"

Cool release? Congrats!
Today we release FLUX 3 Action - an open-weight 7B world-action model, achieving SOTA performance and efficiency on various leaderboards such as RoboLab. I am incredible proud of the team - and both backbone and embodiment-specific finetunes are open weight, alongside the training recipes!

Holy banger??????
Claude Opus 5.5 has the best visual design of any model I have tested so far

Highest value you can work on, unironically
Half joke at this point: Gain 1% efficiency in training or generation and you'll increase the universe intelligence by as much.
