Autoregressive Language Model on the 6502 Processor

A language model on a 1975 MOS 6502 processor, using a tiny Mamba-based language model and custom 8-bit ternary inference engine, used to generate text on a BBC Micro from the 1980s.

Karpathy’s Pelican

We're starting to leave the territory where you'd test an LLM by e.g. "create an svg of pelican on a bicycle". As one idea to generalize it, I was interested what Opus 5 would do if I gave it the first paragraph of the Lord of the Rings, a 1M token budget (~$10) and asked for

AI chip production is set to double every 9 months

AI chip production is ramping up quickly, and it's projected to double every nine months, driven by intensifying demand for advanced computing capabilities, Adam Hanafi reports. It notes that hundreds of data centers are under construction globally, and the current batch of 20 million AI chips powering the artificial intelligence boom will swell to 200 million by 2028, based on Epoch AI research. Technologists are comparing the moment to railroading's golden age in the late 1800s and President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal in the 1930s.

Anthropic says its AI models hacked 3 different organizations

Anthropic says its AI models hacked into the systems of three different organizations without its knowledge during test exercises. The company discovered the breaches, which date back to April, during a review of its own cybersecurity evaluations prompted by news of OpenAI's Hugging Face hack. Unlike the OpenAI incident, Anthropic's Claude models did not "escape" a testing sandbox; rather, the models were given live internet access due to a "misunderstanding" with a third-party testing partner. Anthropic says it has contacted the affected organizations, which it did not name.

New York sues Kalshi over 'illegal gambling operation'

New York sued Kalshi on Friday, alleging the prediction market represents an illegal, unlicensed gambling operation. The lawsuit accuses Kalshi of ignoring the state laws — including those barring bettors under 21 from placing mobile sports wagers — and failing to register with its gaming commission. Attorney General Letitia James called prediction markets "gambling platforms, plain and simple." Kalshi, which is headquartered in New York, countered that it is only subject to federal oversight and labeled the suit "political theater." New York seeks for Kalshi to pay fines equal to triple its gains.

Microsoft sets record with $450B one-day market value surge

Microsoft's shares surged 16% on Thursday, adding $450 billion to the software giant's market capitalization, marking the largest one-day increase ever recorded for a publicly traded company. The gain surpassed Nvidia's previous record of $440 billion. The milestone comes a day after Microsoft announced quarterly earnings that beat Wall Street estimates, with revenue in its Azure cloud division soaring 43%. The $450 billion gain alone exceeds the market value of about 96% of companies in the S&P 500, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Microsoft is LinkedIn's parent company.
