"AGI is the ability to generalize to an adversarially chosen new benchmark."

ARC-AGI scores for past five years of OpenAI models (updated w/ release dates) https://t.co/DgCmJjf0Cq

If you haven’t figured out the joke yet, *any* fixed benchmark will fall rapidly the instant it becomes an optimization target for the top labs.
Correspondingly, no fixed benchmark is AGI. AGI is the ability to generalize to an adversarially chosen new benchmark.

Founders

The founders: the first who can’t imagine life without something, so they build it

Hit 2,000 miles in Waymo last year. Hard to imagine life without it at this point. https://t.co/bejSKCT13X

The early adopters: They can't imagine life without things you haven't even tried yet.

The interesting thing is, they're generally right. Unless you're very eccentric, something you can't imagine life without will eventually become something a lot of people want.

why I look so much forward to the holidays:

- I finally have time to read, study and catch up with the latest advancements in tech
- be fully focused on product and long term strategy for a few weeks

ETHDenver

planning to have a booth or host an event during eth denver? let me know below. cooking something 👀

microsoft reacts to the vscode exodus by.. giving away copilot for free? oh man, it's almost painful to watch.

if you listen closely you can hear goliath falling

Warpcast Rewards: a new weekly game

- $7,000 reward pool, top 5 scoring casters receive $200 USDC each
- Our goal is to increase the reward pool each week
- The game rewards casters with the most engagement
- Leaderboard and your score available via the Rewards frame (below)
- You do not have to cast on Warpcast to receive rewards
- Detailed FAQ in the next cast

Add the frame here:
https://rewards.warpcast.com

- use rewards to maximise competitiveness for engagement
- exclude spam and (presumably) low-quality content

looks like a winning recipe to boost both content quantity and quality on fc. @dwr.eth has cooked up a rather interesting experiment here, very curious to see how it plays out

the farcaster pvp arc has begun

only 400 will survive. may the best engagement win

Ethereum

TIL ->  @haydenzadams built Uniswap without any programming experience

He learned to write smart contracts while creating its first version

that’s how we rolled back in the day. I also did the same with the first version of @slice :)

wallets should be browsers.

I believe this is possibly the biggest missed opportunity in the space. virtually no competition, huge design space and chance to come up with new business models to make a notoriously hard product wildly profitable.
