It's pretty remarkable that the most famous guy in the world, the richest guy in the world and the most powerful guy in the world are all the exact same kind of pathetic loser

Spending 5 minutes doing something that last year would have taken hours to do, because of AI. I have ambivalent feelings about AI's impact in the world, but I really don't get the "it doesn't work" crowd...

New from us: Anthropic just published scenarios for AI’s possible economic impacts, which range from minimal, to explosive GDP growth of 15% by 2030 as knowledge-worker unemployment hits 18%. I sat down with their co-founder Jack Clark to pick his brains on how they’re thinking about all of this.

I don't have any original AI take, but I think it's fun that you can now spend 20$ to build a Panzer General / Football Manager hybrid in a week. Is that worth a 10% chance of wiping out humanity? I prefer not to speak.

❌ AI companies and employees are just hyping up their products when they talk about the risk to humanity ❌ we need to take p(Doom) deadly seriously if they talk about like this ✅ this is just how rationalists talk about normal but large problems, we should treat it like a normal but large problem

this wasn’t supposed to happen yet

A series of six horizontal bar charts under the title "Coding" comparing the performance of AI models "maxed out on thinking effort." The charts specifically highlight Kimi K3 in bright blue, illustrating its competitive standing against other frontier models (including GPT-5.6 Sol, Fable 5, Opus-4.8, GPT-5.5, and GLM-5.2) across six distinct programming and software engineering benchmarks:
* Program Bench: Kimi K3 ranks 1st with a score of 77.8, narrowly edgeing out GPT-5.6 Sol (77.6) and Fable 5 (76.8).
* SWE Marathon: Kimi K3 ranks 1st with a score of 42.0, leading Opus-4.8 (40.0), GPT-5.6 Sol (39.0), and Fable 5 (35.0).
* Terminal Bench 2.1: Kimi K3 ranks 2nd with a score of 88.3, just behind GPT-5.6 Sol (88.8) and ahead of Opus-4.8 and Fable 5 (both at 84.6).
* FrontierSWE: Kimi K3 ranks 2nd with a score of 81.2, trailing Fable 5 (86.6) but significantly outperforming GPT-5.6 Sol (71.3).
* Kimi Code Bench 2.0 (Internal): Kimi K3 ranks 2nd with a score of 72.9, trailing Fable 5 (76.9) and leading Opus-4.8 (71.7).
* DeepSWE: Kimi K3 ranks 3rd with a score of 67.5, trailing GPT-5.6 Sol (73.0) and Fable 5 (70.0), while placing slightly ahead of GPT-5.5 (67.0).
Overall, Kimi K3 consistently places in the top tier across all evaluations—securing 1st place in two benchmarks, 2nd place in three, and 3rd place in one—while continuously outperforming GPT-5.5 and GLM-5.2 in every category.
