Yeah $TIG is flying under the radar An open protocol for algorithm development listening to John explain how algorithms can optimise & help you extract maximum utility from any given chip DeepMind, OpenAI, Anthropic, they're all racing to own the algorithmic layer if they win, you pay a tax...

We demonstrated our AI-agent framework for massively collaborative algorithm discovery for the first time yesterday Using the TIG Vehicle Routing Challenge (collaboration with Steven Diamond) The TIG team had the pleasure of presenting to some of the biggest players in the AI-algorithm discovery space They learned they can mine for algorithms, monetise the outputs through TIG, while keeping the algorithms open for others to build on and improve Minds were blown Details to follow

This is why $TIG is so important 🔵 "We have got to acknowledge that most of the advances in AI came out of algorithm advances, not just the raw hardware" ⚫️ "The only way to really get 10x or 100x leaps is to fundamentally change the algorithm" Not just anyone's opinion.. thats from CEO of NVIDIA Jensen Huang Algorithms are where the real breakthroughs come from.. The Innovation Game (𝔦, 𝔦) is building the incentive layer to discover them.. at scale, in the open, with the best minds competing to push the frontier forward $TIG

Claude Code cracked something open for us Every 📧. Now I ship to codebases I barely know, every feature we ship makes the next one easier, and non-technical members of the team use the terminal. I’m genuinely grateful. So I brought its creators, Cat Wu (cat) and Boris Cherny (Boris Cherny) from Anthropic, on AI & I to say thank you—and to talk about everything they’ve learned from building Claude Code. We get into: • The workflows Anthropic’s smartest engineers use to push Claude Code to its limits. Why they pit subagents against each other to get cleaner results, how they turn past code into leverage, and the slash commands and MCPs they rely on most. • The product lessons behind one of the most loved AI agents in the world. How the team balances simplicity and power—building a tool that anyone can use, but that experts can bend to their will—and their philosophy of “unshipping,” or cutting back whenever there’s a simpler, more intuitive path to user intent. • A peek into the future of coding with AI. The new form factors they’re experimenting with to make Claude Code more autonomous, more reliable, and more accessible to non-technical users This is a must-watch for anyone—both technical and non-technical—who wants to learn how to use Claude Code like the people who built it. Watch below!

Yoshua Bengio thinks he knows how to make provably safe superintelligent agents. Bengio built the foundations of modern AI and is the most cited living scientist. He believes his alternative training setup would: 1. Guarantee honesty 2. Prevent unintended goals 3. Produce capable agents 4. Port over most data and techniques from current LLMs 5. Not be inherently more expensive, and perhaps be more intelligent Bengio claims the honesty and lack of unintended goals can be proven mathematically, at least given particular assumptions. And his new organization, LawZero, is aiming to build a scrappy prototype as soon as possible. The architecture is called 'Scientist AI' and it's based on training a model to explain empirical observations, including what people say, rather than training AIs that mimic human behaviour or seek our approval. (Bengio's frank assessment is that "reinforcement learning is evil" and that allowing AIs to independently train their successors is "the most crazy, dangerous bet that unfortunately we are on track to do.") But skeptics question whether Scientist AI really does solve the fundamental problem of 'eliciting latent knowledge' from AI models. And with the commercial race for superintelligence so intense, it's not clear whether the proposal will be able to compete or have time to bear fruit, even if it's sound in theory.

AGI is coming. Reid Hoffman (Reid Hoffman) just wrote the book on how to prepare. According to Reid, every major tech breakthrough (the written word, the printing press, the telephone) triggered mass fear. But, contrary to our worries, new technology tends to enhance human agency—even more so, if you know how to use it well. Reid is the cofounder of LinkedIn, Inflection AI, and Manas, a partner at Greylock Partners, an award-winning podcaster, and an early backer and board member of OpenAI. We spent an hour talking about how to develop a compass for navigating AGI. Here are a few takeaways: - Our sense of human agency is not just about external control but an internal stance—how we approach uncertainty & new tech is crucial - In new technology waves, NO blueprint or plan will have the right answers. Instead, adapting to new technology requires broad access, an experimental mindset, and flexibility - In an AGI world most jobs will transform, not disappear—and how you can prepare with hands-on trial and error - How certain social norms and ethics should change as AGI changes the landscape—like individual access to personal data - Why now may be finally be the era where quantified self tools become valuable …and more, including everything in his new book Superagency, out this week. It was a pleasure to have him on the show for a second time. This is a must-watch for anyone who wants to help build a more human future with AI. Watch below! Timestamps: Introduction: 00:01:29 Patterns in how we’ve historically adopted technology: 00:02:50 Why humans have typically been fearful of new technologies: 00:07:02 How Reid developed his own sense of agency: 00:13:25 The way Reid thinks about making investment decisions: 00:20:08 AI as a “techno-humanist” compass: 00:29:40 How to prepare yourself for the way AI will change knowledge work: 00:35:30 Why equitable access to AI is important: 00:41:39 Reid’s take on why private commons will be beneficial for society: 00:45:15 How AI is making Silicon Valley’s conception of the “quantified self” a reality: 00:47:23 The shift from symbolic to sub-symbolic AI mirrors how we understand intelligence: 00:52:14 Reid’s new book, Superagency: 01:03:29
