Scaling Engineering, Not Breakthroughs, Drives AI Cost Advantage
I think folk are underestimating how much of AI models are actually engineering at scale versus breakthrough research. See how @cursor_ai caught up to Anthropic / OpenAI models run at a fraction of the cost to run & it becomes clearer why that deal was done & what is to come

Tokens: Building Blocks of the New Information Superhighway
Tokens are the bricks by which the information superhighway is being rebuilt. There is a lot of information. It'll need a whole lot of bricks.
AI Compute Costs Equal XAI’s Quarterly Loss
This likely costs about ~$500m a month, ~$6bn a year to rent blended Which is about the run rate net loss of xai end of q1 Anthropics revenue run rate was $9bn end of 2025, $30bn a month ago
Navier‑Stokes Breakthrough May Come From Non‑PDE Fields
Bet this happens with Navier Stokes and it’s going to be something not even related to PDEs that solves it
Local LLMs Won’t Need 16GB VRAM—Use Cloud
By end of next year. End of year after for 16gb vram. Do folk really need more for most things? Not really. But just call the cloud models when you do.
Relativity’s Algebra Hides Century‑Old Positive Cosmological Constant
What's cooler than finding a 27-year-old bug in OpenBSD? Finding a positive cosmological constant hiding for over a century in the algebra of relativity🌌 No new physics or math needed🧮 Possibly the most elegant novel result we'll see, but even more interesting ones...
