the last 24h will be remembered as the "what radicalized you?" moment in AI. Fable is the sputnik to the open model movement. Its time to build. We must open the frontier.
The Cathedral is burning the Bazaar
New blog. I looked into the actual evidence and what models where used by bad actors to see whether closed models are safer. Turns out: Nope, they are used to hack, misinform and scam. There is one exception, though. Link in replies.
In August I wrote a piece on Substack about how the 10% stake in intel should worry the frontier labs, with a blow-by-blow prediction of events leading to nationalization. Looking pretty good so far. Shout out to @__venki__ who made a prediction market on it. Link in next tweet.
Can I personally join the NVIDIA Nemotron Coalition
American AI startups need open source models to survive and profit. They also don't care that they are made by Chinese labs, because if you control where you deploy the model and set up guardrails (aka you know what you are doing), the risk is minimal This report by Fireworks AI and Harvey building legal AI agents using GLM, Kimi, and Opus is just one of many many examples. No startup can afford to pay the Opus/GPT tax. Not sustainble. fireworks.ai/blog/open-sour…
@__venki__ Try snoozing topics on mobile- I think it has algo influence
@Chrisgpt I totally agree. He plays in SF, DC and small town USA. Dude was made in a lab to be America’s AI Unc
We're adopting the Linux Foundation’s OpenMDW framework across our open model families. This helps make open model licensing simpler and more consistent at scale. A single legal framework across models, code, documentation, and data helps reduce friction for developers and enterprises building with open source.
OpenMDW-1.1 is now available — and @NVIDIAAI is adopting it across Cosmos, Isaac GR00T, Ising, and Nemotron model families. A permissive, unified legal framework purpose-built for AI models. Learn more at openmdw.ai
I love living in a world where a deity would use their mouthpiece to say: Yeah, nah, but open source them weights bro.
Today, among the goods that are universally intended for everyone, we must also include new forms of property, such as patents, algorithms, digital platforms, technological infrastructure and data. In a context where the wealth of nations depends increasingly on knowledge and

I was in China a couple of weeks ago with @natolambert , @xeophon, the @readsail team including @caithrin, @azeem, @jasminewsun, @kevinsxu, and other wonderful humans. Over dinner in Shanghai, a friend asked: “Are these robot dogs and humanoids actually running large language models? How does a language model… move a leg?” That question became the starting point for my new piece as I processed how Chinese and US robotics industries are progressing and where they are excelling.
The cure for our collective anxieties about data centers is a Stardew Valley-style game where one gets proposed in town. People freak out, but in the end the Alpine Lake does not dry up, Pierre gets into Claude Code, and Pam gets a better job. Token Valley would fix us.
come get schooled by @xeophon on benchmarks. He's brilliant. watch it here tngtech.zoom.us/j/95121554884?…
Such a great episode on China’s AI labs with @natolambert. Highly recommend @Gracemzshao’s Differentiated Understanding podcast for anyone interested in AI in China! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/nat…
