you can now download a language model that contains a tiny computer
1/4 Meet Qwenputer: Qwen3.5-4B with a full RISC-V CPU inside its weights, using the model's own Gated DeltaNet layers as RAM. It runs C and MicroPython in its forward passes, no external runtime. On DeepMind math: base 55–90%, base + Python tool 95–100%, Qwenputer 97.5–100%.

Udara (@TGUPJ) on why he lets every project sit for months on purpose, and what that does to the work.
Udara Jay (@TGUPJ) is a designer, engineer, explorer, and the founder of UNMS. In this conversation, Udara walks us through New Dawn Protocol, a globe-scale civilization sandbox game about rebuilding shared systems and living with what they make possible. What once took a triple-A studio, Udara is now building on his own. The game opens onto a larger question: what does this technology make possible, and what is it changing that we can’t see? The GPU was built to draw games and now runs AI. A phone sets a photo’s exposure without asking, and without our noticing that a decision was made at all. Agents will soon make choices for us the same way. Udara argues that most people experience AI only through their social feeds or a narrow slice of the world as it currently is, and that even the people building it can’t see where it’s going. internetVin and Udara push the question as far as it goes: what do people become once machines run the systems we built, and why learn anything once knowing is no longer an advantage? The Other Stuff is hosted by internetVin, a filmmaker, entrepreneur, and possibly the most curious man on Earth.

still in trial, likely costs a few $100k to customize. but gives you a sense of the world to come when one could get medicine written from their own dna

this sort of thing makes me wish for a 3D model format that encoded the nature things~ how it moves, how you interact with it, maybe even who it is

OpenUSD and glTF answer parts around encoding the physics and behaviours of things, but what about the meaning and purpose of objects that define their place in generated world?

Udara (@TGUPJ) and @internetvin on why AI output alone isn't impressive. "It's just demoing the outcomes of a transformer. It's not necessarily demonstrating understanding, and understanding is often the most interesting thing." They discuss how games differ in this case, as games have to be played, and in playing you move through the maker's understanding yourself.

Udara (@TGUPJ) demos New Dawn Protocol, a globe-scale civilization game he is building entirely by himself. In the game, you play the steward of a settled planet. Its districts and states run themselves, so you can't just order them around. You have to design things they want to take part in. Every layer is simulated, from terrain to weather to trade. If you see a cloud, it's because there's a cloud in the sim. His vision of the game is one in which you make decisions on behalf of millions of people and experience their system-level effects through the stories told by the individuals themselves.

spent a few hours with @internetvin talking about the things i’ve been making, from new dawn protocol to home labs. enjoyed having room to follow the tangents :)
