Google’s Growing Memory RNNs: New Caching Approach
By
–
"Memory Caching: RNNs with Growing Memory" Google's new paper proposes a simple way to give recurrent models a memory that grows with sequence length. So instead of forcing an RNN to compress the full past into 1 fixed hidden state, it caches memory checkpoints across

Anthropic and OpenAI: Decoding Strategic AI Model Names
By

At face value, the claim sounds like a safety warning. It also seems to signal something unusually capable, consequential and maybe beyond what rivals have. It’s hard not to notice the names @AnthropicAI and @OpenAI are using:
— "Spud" (still just a codename) calls to mind -
Advice to VCs: Avoid Technology Dependency in Robotics
By
–
Advice to VCs investing in robotics: when the underlying technology landscape is still changing SO incredibly quickly, avoid making bets that make you path dependent on a specific technology approach. (e.g. Vision Language Action Models vs. @GeneralistAI's System1/System 2 approach). We're still so early and have only seen ~0.1% of the ideas and innovation in this space. Invest in infrastructure & picks and shovels. [Translated from EN to English]
