From a first-principles point of view, fusion is the future, just like that big moving reactor in the sky.
Gold is only a by-product, not the end goal here, and as a secondary benefit, the ~17-year radioactive cooling period is acceptable in the long term.
It feels like a win-win if they can scale fusion itself to revolutionize clean energy, which remains the real challenge.
Last month, we demonstrated high-rate alchemy: turning mercury into real, stable gold, beating CERN’s record by a factor of 10.
Last week, we enriched isotopes in the world’s most powerful plasma centrifuge, beating the Soviet record that stood for 40 years.
Now, we’re building a fusion reactor in San Francisco to achieve record power density.
When the currency units are measured in fundamental physical quantities such as energy and mass, the speed of light will be the conversion constant.
It all comes down to what do you manufacture. Electrons or atoms.
AI is a factory for digital intelligence where you manufacture electrons.
Used to approve every step a coding agent planned. Thought that was caution. Now I just let it run. Not more trust, I can't read it fast enough anymore. The hard part is no longer watching the work. It's saying what I want to build before it starts deciding for me.
TPUs in space will be tested soon with the ultimate nuclear fusion energy source.
Autonomy-1 will be a pioneer deep space mission.
Next year, we're going to launch a spacecraft that will be given zero commands from Earth after it separates from the launch vehicle.
The spacecraft will attempt to complete all of its mission objectives with no human operator in the loop.
Today we’re introducing Autonomy-1, powered by our spacecraft intelligence model, Solo. 🧵
Aiming the antenna to the correct point in the sky and getting reliable feedback that it’s properly aligned is one of the hardest challenges when building a ground station.
7/ I’ve already contacted Lime Microsystems about this and I’m waiting for their reply. I don’t know yet if they consider this an acceptable workaround or if they have a better solution / will accept it as supported solution.
