Karpathy makes a major case for CLIs as the ideal interface for AI agents, arguing legacy technologies are perfectly suited for agent interaction. Demonstrates Claude/Codex agents using Polymarket CLI to build dashboards in minutes. Urges companies to build for agents: markdown docs, Skills, CLI tools, MCP.

Source details
CLIs are super exciting precisely because they are a "legacy" technology, which means AI agents can natively and easily use them, combine them, interact with them via the entire terminal toolkit. E.g ask your Claude/Codex agent to install this new Polymarket CLI and ask for any arbitrary dashboards or interfaces or logic. The agents will build it for you. Install the Github CLI too and you can ask them to navigate the repo, see issues, PRs, discussions, even the code itself. Example: Claude bu

NVIDIA's Jim Fan announces SONIC, a 42M parameter transformer for humanoid robot whole-body control. Trained on 100M+ mocap frames across 128 GPUs using Isaac Lab. Zero-shot transfer to real G1 robot with 100% success rate. Supports VR teleoperation, video imitation, text prompts, music-driven dance, and VLA foundation models (GR00T N1.5). Fully open-source.

Source details
What can half of GPT-1 do? We trained a 42M transformer called SONIC to control the body of a humanoid robot. It takes a remarkable amount of subconscious processing for us humans to squat, turn, crawl, sprint. SONIC captures this "System 1" - the fast, reactive whole-body intelligence - in a single model that translates any motion command into stable, natural motor signals. And it's all open-source!! The key insight: motion tracking is the one, true scalable task for whole body control. Inste

Anthropic announces RSP v3.0, their updated Responsible Scaling Policy, incorporating lessons learned since 2023 with improved transparency commitments

Source details
We're updating our Responsible Scaling Policy to its third version. Since it came into effect in 2023, we’ve learned a lot about the RSP’s benefits and its shortcomings. This update improves the policy, reinforcing what worked and committing us to even greater transparency.

Chollet argues against technological determinism in AI adoption, comparing it to leaded gasoline. States society has a duty to ensure AI improves rather than hollows out the human condition.

Source details
A lot of the current discourse about AI comes from a fatalistic position of total surrender of agency: "tech is moving in this direction and there's nothing anyone can do about it" (suspiciously convenient for those who stand to benefit most) But in a free society, we get to choose what kind of world we live in, independent of technological capabilities. Just because tetraethyllead made engines run more efficiently and saved money didn't mean we were *obligated* to pump it into the lungs of our

Neel Nanda shares new paper on implicit planning in LLMs: when writing poetry, LLMs know the end-sound of a line in advance and choose words to set it up. Used steering vectors to study this across many models.

New paper on implicit planning on LLMs: When writing poetry, LLMs know the sound the current line should end in, choose words to set it up, and you can change the sound The result isn't new, but we did it with the simple method of steering vectors, so we could study many models

I'm with Vitalik. Anthropic will win a lot of fans if it does not back down. As part of my work with @blevlabs I had it run on all AI posts here on X today and had it write me a short essay on the AI news of the day, and the fight between the Pentagon and Anthropic is news number one. Present that here, the rest of this post is written by AI: +++++++++++ Today is not a normal day in AI. I read hundreds of thousands of posts across 15 curated lists this morning and one signal is unmistakab

Continuing our coverage from yesterday, Chollet highlights a logical contradiction: 'Any software engineer can now produce much more value' cannot coexist with 'No one will want to hire software engineers.'

Source details
"Any software engineer can now produce much more value than before" "No one will want to hire software engineers" Both of these cannot be true at the same time.

Emollick predicts human interaction will migrate to invite-only spaces (Discords, group chats), leaving the open web and social media to AI agents. Coins the term 'Moltbook' for the AI-dominated public web.

Human interaction is going to shift to discords and group chats, invite-only. The open web and social media are going to be left for the agents lurking amongst the ruins. Everything public will be Moltbook.
