At the @AIatMeta Hackathon this weekend, we built one of the first apps built for the Meta Raybans. Introducing SixthSense, a multimodal agent that augments physical knowledge consumption. Using just your Meta Raybans, SixthSense changes the way you consume books/papers, allowing you to - - Converse with the author, trained on most recent updates in the field - Use gestures or highlighters to digitally bookmark pieces of content you find interesting - Get explanations and Q&As to make reading more interactive

Andrej Karpathy just recommended this book written by one of my favorite Professors & author David Eagleman at Stanford Highly recc, great albeit dense read
Anthropic Engineer Andrej Karpathy: "The biggest mistake in AI right now - people are forcing agents to work instead of mastering the model first We made that mistake in 2016 at OpenAI - It cost us 5 years " what Karpathy actually means: step 1 → stop forcing your agent to do everything, understand the model underneath first step 2 → demos are easy - products take a decade. self-driving proved it - if you skip the foundation, everything breaks step 3 → the agent is not the product. the foundation is. build that - and agents emerge on their own "you building agents right now - you're at the forefront. not OpenAI. not DeepMind. you " watch - bookmark, then read article below ↓

This is one of the best produced conferences I've been to in a while. @aiDotEngineer World's Fair feels like a collection of high quality hyper engineers distilling technical wisdom straight to your brain vs generic corporate larping. A balanced technical platform like this is quite good for the ecosystem. Great job @swyx and team – at San Francisco, CA

This validation is going to carry me through the entire week 🫡
I have never seen an episode of The West Wing. Can someone tell me if this is good or not?

Any problem can be solved if you apply enough cognitive test time compute to it.

Had such a great time talking with @ayushkhd . We could have gone for hours… this space is moving so quickly. I’m grateful that these summits are bringing people together to create awareness and new ideas in the fast-moving innovation world! I’m an AI optimist over the long term, but the next few years are gonna be a wild ride.
