I'm really hoping that happens, this whole thing is actually just a long-con to get someone to draw me a genuinely great picture of a pelican on a bicycle

Google Deep Think generates recognizable pelican bicycle art

–
My notes on Google Deep Think – I don't have a $250/month Ultra account but nickandbro on Hacker News got it to draw a pelican riding a bicycle and the bird actually is recognizable as a pelican!

AI democratizes expertise removing barriers to brilliant ideas
By
–
Something I think about a lot: who knows how many brilliant ideas never saw the light of day because "I don't know how to do that." Pretty crazy to think that with AI everyone now has a reasonable VC advisor, coder, or professor on hand to teach you about anything you want

Anthropic Research on AI Alignment and Personality Control
By
–
This is more neat research from Anthropic, providing a lot of ways for careful organizations to shape the personality and guardrails of AI in deeper ways than prompts, including measuring and reducing sycophancy. Also the idea of an "evil vector" is interesting in and of itself.

How Much Models Think: The Key Simplification Axis
By
–
I can't share a lot at this point, but clearly how much we we allow the model to think is the main axis of the simplification.

IMO 2025 Gold Model Achieves SOTA on Reasoning Tasks
By
–
The IMO 2025 gold model achieved SOTA on many other reasoning tasks by large margins. I couldn't quite believe it when I first saw the results.

This research was led by @RunjinChen and @andyarditi through the Anthropic Fellows program, supervised by @Jack_W_Lindsey
, in collaboration w/ @sleight_henry and @OwainEvans_UK
. The Fellows program is accepting applications: -

Persona Vectors Identify Training Data Teaching Bad AI Traits
By
–
Persona vectors can also identify training data that will teach the model bad personality traits. Sometimes, it flags data that we wouldn't otherwise have noticed.

–
Special thank to the entire Deep Think team who has worked very hard to push this out to production! Amazing to see how far we have gotten from just a thought of having deep thoughts many months ago

Production-Ready AI Model Solves IMO Problems with Deep Think Mode
By
–
One very important distinction compared to all other IMO results out there is that our model is production ready, not experimental 🙂 This advanced model together powered by Deep Think mode is quite creative in problem solving. Check out this video of what a mathematician thinks… pic.twitter.com/QwA3aR0iNF
