Should we rename the infinite monkey theorem the infinite agents theorem? Seems like a swarm of them can figure out pretty much anything.

I cannot emphasize enough how much GPT-6 Astra and Fable 5.1 are already enough for transformative impact in large sections of the economy. They can reliably do weeks worth of human work when properly guided & harnessed.

Uuuuh, Hetzner moving into the inference space in earnest!
Screenshot from email that says:

From experiment to product

Based on the response to the experiment, we are now working toward turning AI Inference into a real Hetzner product.

We are doing our best to make it available to you as soon as possible - but we cannot promise a launch date yet.

Sebastien Bubeck responds to allegations specifically, i think this greatly clarifies the, “why would you ruin your career over this?” quote that Buckmaster used. That part never made sense to me.
Sebastien Bubeck Y @SebastienBubeck
X.com
I would like to clarify a few things:
1) The screenshot is my reaching out to Levent to coordinate our releases. I hope it's clear from the message that we came in with the best possible intentions.
2) I never ever asked for Levent to be removed from authorship of his own work (as indicated by my text). I was surprised to learn during the call with Tristan that they had only solved Euler and not Navier-Stokes; after learning this we brainstormed possible paths forward. One option we discussed was that Tristan could be the lead author on a rewrite of OpenAl's Navier-Stokes proof. It is in that context that I said "it would be simpler if Levent was not an Anthropic employee" because I felt it would be inappropriate for an Anthropic employee to author OpenAl's work. Importantly it was admitted that internal Anthropic models had been used in their proof of Euler blowup; I therefore felt I could not consider Levent to betheretore felt I could not consider Levent to be an independent academic. Another option I wanted to propose (but got cut short) is to offer access to our internal model so that they could try to finish their proof and bridge the gap between Euler and NS. Again I did not know how to navigate giving access to internal OpenAl IP to an Anthropic employee.
3) To reiterate it plainly: as my text clearly indicates, and as I said during our call, OpenAl's intention was to do everything possible to celebrate their mathematical achievements and the heroic efforts that they made on Euler. In the call I was immediately met with a litany of slander, including direct threats that if we were to announce Navier-Stokes he would immediately go to the press with a barrage of unfounded accusations. I refuted all these accusations but he replied "there is nothing you can do, I simply do not trust you".
• I was confused
why one would turn an incredible source for celebration (of their achievements!) into such bickering, which is when I said that I did not understand why one would risk their career [over unfounded accusations]. Genuinely, at that moment, I was trying to care for him and do a last ditch attempt to get a chance to give themlast ditch attempt to get a chance to give them all the credits that they deserve. I deeply apologize for this extremely poor choice of words, it is the opposite of what I was trying to convey. (I should say that I retracted them on the spot by the way.)
4) Overall, on a personal level, it was incredibly difficult to have these conversations. Levent refused to attend any of the meetings despite my repeated asking. As Sholto Douglas said, there will need to be coordination between Anthropic and OpenAl in the future; I felt I was doing a proxy negotiation with Anthropic while the Anthropic employee refused to directly participate.7:34

Sorry to ask you this on a Sunday (l wouldn't if it wasn't important): could we talk?
:
11:48 AM
I would like to be maximally open with you. I want to talk about coordinating the release of our concurrent
discoveries. To be very clear: an internal model produced a proof (both formal and informal) of NS with very little human input, BUT it is of the utmost importance to us to recognize YOUR priority and that all the academic accolades for this historic result goes to you and Tristan. We are ready to share everything we have with you, including the human prompts and everything.
Just let me know what you want to do. I think a call would be productive.
what is the precise theorem you are claiming?

A Go pattern I like: keep the fat service struct, but wire each operation with its own function — *Service plus narrow interfaces for exactly the dependencies that operation calls, set as a closure on a private func field. HTTP-handler-style registration, for business logic.
