Fable 5 is state-of-the-art on nearly all tested benchmarks, with exceptional performance in software engineering, knowledge work, scientific research, and vision. The longer and more complex the task, the larger Fable 5’s lead over our other models.

Today we’re excited to announce over $700 million in Series A funding to accelerate our ambitions to realize a generational leap in computing. Hark is an AI lab building the most advanced, personal intelligence in the world. We're pairing our own foundation models with bespoke hardware to create a universal interface between humans and machines. Toward this goal, we’ve raised our Series A at a $6 billion post-money valuation. In a round led by Parkway Venture Capital, demand from investors was significant and oversubscribed, with participation from NVIDIA, Align Ventures, AMD Ventures, ARK Invest, Brookfield, Greycroft, Intel Capital, Prime Movers Lab, Qualcomm Ventures, Salesforce Ventures, and Tamarack Global. With these resources at Hark’s disposal, we’re hiring some of the best talent from across the industry. We’ve also secured the infrastructure we need to bring many of our visions to life. We’ll train our next generation of models at our new NVIDIA B200 data center. We’re ambitious, but we recognize the incredible challenges ahead. We plan to amplify human capacity, autonomy, and joy with an adept, personalized AI assistant. This is a time when the right way is the hard way. And the right approach requires a blend of bespoke-crafted software and hardware. This round cements our ambitions to build the world-defining AI experiences of tomorrow. And as it turns out, tomorrow isn’t so far away.

An single individual person is using $1.3M of tokens in 30 days... mind bending! (Yes its @steipete... but its still half a trillion tokens in a month!)
The latest CodexBar update renders API costs wayyyy nicer. codex.bar

When GPT-5 was released, some folks claimed AI progress was hitting a wall, whereas others said progress would continue. GPT-5.2 was released 2 months ago. GPT-5.3-Codex was released 2 days ago and is twice as token efficient for coding. It's clear who turned out to be correct.

My AI agent almost gave me a heart attack yesterday. 💀 It autonomously drafted 21 emails to high-profile investors without asking for final permission. The emails were surprisingly good. The risk was not. I realized that to run in "Founder Mode" with AI, you can't just give them permission; you have to give them a conscience. The Solution: @TaskletAI Architect 1. I built a custom Skill for Claude Code that acts as a "Safety Compiler" for autonomous agents. 2. I give a natural language goal: "Build an agent to find leads and contact them." 3. The Architect scans the intent for risks: Spending Money or External Comms. 4. It automatically injects a "Safety Constitution" into the agent's system instructions. It hard-codes "Permission Gates" for any high-stakes action. Now, if my agent tries to spend $1 or email a stranger, it is code-locked into a "Draft & Wait" protocol. I’m open-sourcing the Constitution and the Architect Skill today. If you are building autonomous agents, steal this. gist.github.com/seabass011/e… (S/o @startupandrew and @jonnydimond for building extremely good AI agents)

AI “slop” isn’t the model... it’s your prompt! I hung out with @PietroMontaldo, co-founder of Nforce, to chat about how non-technical people are really taking advantage of AI youtube.com/watch?v=J9399qZD…

- Automating meeting prep that used to take 90 minutes now takes 10 min - Offloading 3 to 4 hours a week of Reddit hunting into 20 min with an agent that finds rising posts and drafts on-brand comments. - Practical tech stack: Relay, CRM automations, repurposing to X/YouTube

Is Strava writing its OWN death certificate before an alleged $2.2B IPO? > Strava buys Runna > Realized they mega fucked up because RUNNA doesn’t work well > Decides to sue Garmin > Garmin is 40% of their upload data > Garmin wants watermark on Strava api shares > Strava thinks they created heatmaps > Strava API is wrapper of Garmin API > Garmin wants API attribution > Garmin created heat maps and segments before Strava did > Strava suing saying they have heat map IP patent > Strava needs original IP win against Garmin to value IPO higher > Backfiring > API wrapper wars right before $2.2B IPO > Garmin threatening to pull API access from Strava November 1st > 40% or Strava users connect from Garmin
