"Dating a model" can mean one of two very different things, depending where you live in California
LA: Have your agent talk to my agent. SF: Have your agent talk to my agent.

🚨 BREAKING: A Google researcher and a Turing Award winner just published a paper that exposes the real crisis in AI. It's not training. It's inference. And the hardware we're using was never designed for it. The paper is by Xiaoyu Ma and David Patterson. Accepted by IEEE Computer, 2026. No hype. No product launch. Just a cold breakdown of why serving LLMs is fundamentally broken at the hardware level. The core argument is brutal: → GPU FLOPS grew 80X from 2012 to 2022 → Memory bandwidth grew only 17X in that same period → HBM costs per GB are going UP, not down → The Decode phase is memory-bound, not compute-bound → We're building inference on chips designed for training Here's the wildest part: OpenAI lost roughly $5B on $3.7B in revenue. The bottleneck isn't model quality. It's the cost of serving every single token to every single user. Inference is bleeding these companies dry. And five trends are making it worse simultaneously: → MoE models like DeepSeek-V3 with 256 experts exploding memory → Reasoning models generating massive thought chains before answering → Multimodal inputs (image, audio, video) dwarfing text → Long-context windows straining KV caches → RAG pipelines injecting more context per request Their four proposed hardware shifts: → High Bandwidth Flash: 512GB stacks at HBM-level bandwidth, 10X more memory per node → Processing-Near-Memory: logic dies placed next to memory, not on the same chip → 3D Memory-Logic Stacking: vertical connections delivering 2-3X lower power than HBM → Low-Latency Interconnect: fewer hops, in-network compute, SRAM packet buffers Companies that tried SRAM-only chips like Cerebras and Groq already failed and had to add DRAM back. This paper doesn't sell a product. It maps the entire hardware bottleneck and says: the industry is solving the wrong problem. Paper dropped January 2026. Link in the first comment 👇

I can't believe humans were gifted a planet full of famine, disease, and death and invented fusion, vaccines, moon rockets, and so much food that most people die from obesity.
I can't believe human were gifted a planet with full of trees, fruit, water, animals and sunshine and then they invented debt, capitalism and war

your timeline convinced you AI is in a bubble. talk to a boomer above the age 35 for 5 minutes. most people don’t even know what claude is.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ kind of wild when you zoom out.

O Christmas tree, o cosmic tree 🎄 Located about 2,500 light-years from Earth, NGC 2264 is a cluster of young stars between one and five million years old. The stars appear as blue and white lights surrounded by swirls of gas—the “pine needles” of the tree—with green representing light in the visible spectrum. Learn more:go.nasa.gov/3MN1xdX

People who say “we don’t want t-shirt factories in America” are mistaken about the very nature of technology. What they mean is that we don’t want Capex intense, heavily labor dependent, low margin manufacturing. But all of those attributes—capex, labor use, margin—are subject to technology, and therefore innovation. By exporting the industry, you are excluding the possibility of American technologists changing the *way t-shirts are made* in such a way that it is very profitable to do here. These sorts of changes are the inevitable direction of technology. Why would you count our civilization out of that?

1/7 We needed power for building gas stations on the Moon and Mars. Suppliers quoted us $100/W for solar and 14 months lead times. So we built our own. Space-rated solar, scalable, and 90% cheaper. Now it powers our mission. And yours. Launching today 🧵

Our portfolio company Memories.ai, now publicly launching their API to enable the next generation of multi-modal AI agents. Memories.ai is building the visual memory layer for AI, enabling machines to see, remember, and understand like humans. With ultra-low hallucinations and an effectively UNLIMITED CONTEXT WINDOW, their video understanding capabilities surpass even leading LLMs. This unlocks intuitive interfaces where AI agents can process video, audio, and visual inputs seamlessly—transforming industries from productivity to video editing. Explore the API: memories.ai/docs VC-backed founders can access up to $10,000 in credits.
NOW you can BUILD REAL Multi-Modal Agents with our API! 🚀 Excited to announce our API is now publicly available @memories_ai 😃 @memories_ai is building the visual memory layer for AI, it enables AI to see and remember like humans do. 2025 is the year of agents, 2026 is the year of multi-modal agents! 🌟

I’m Shawn, founder of Memories.ai, former researcher at Meta and CS PhD at University of Cambridge. Today we’re launching Memories.ai: we built the world’s first Large Visual Memory Model - to give AI human-like visual memories. Why visual memory? AI to date is chat-based, which has great applications, but humans are not only chat based. Humans have visual-memories, and are visually driven. Memories.ai enables AI agents, softwares, and even robots to see and remember the world the way humans do. We just raised an $8m seed round led by @susaventures to build the visual-memory layer for AI. Why is Memories.ai so groundbreaking? 👇
