Some news. I've joined @AIatMeta (FAIR) to work on Reasoning, for code and other-than-code. And doubtless more of the great chewey problems one finds in AI these days. Gonna be fun!

Today was my last day at Lacework, after an eventful 2.5 years working on cloud security. I was fortunate to have excellent engineers as colleagues and learned a lot. Now ... it's time for a new adventure (following a short break). https://t.co/m86BE5KBTj

Reflecting on this Optimus was macro teleoperated But micro autonomous Voice and major gesticulations assisted by humans, but control around stability, hand dexterity, human proximity etc was autonomous This is INSANE progress

If Trump wins, Starship will land rockets on Mars in 2026 If Trump loses it probably won’t be until 2029, maybe even 2031 Right now it takes the FAA 6 months to approve launches There are only “launch windows” where the orbits align between Earth and Mars every 26 months 🚀

Glad to have played a small role in this new benchmark effort on evaluating LM for forecasting. TL;DR: it's a fully dynamic set that asks you to forecast the future and so is always contamination-free. We find frontier models still not as good as humans.
