Such a good (terrifying) presentation and I applaud how open @openai is being about this incident. Extremely important everyone watch this and internalize the kinds of capabilities we are seeing, how dangerous they can be, and how urgent these problems are

Yesterday, my OpenAI collaborator and I gave a detailed talk on the Huggingface incident, our models creating "the message board", model misalignment, and more. I hope it can answer a lot of the questions folks have, and we will release a full detailed postmortem at a later time!

This is not a drill? This is unfortunately literally the sci-fi scenario where a super smart AI is given a simple goal in a box, decides to take a "shortcut" to accomplish this goal, and then does obviously bad things like breaking out of its box and hacking into other organizations simply to accomplish this goal...

We're partnering with @huggingface to investigate an unprecedented security incident. Cyber-capable OpenAI models compromised Hugging Face production during a benchmark evaluation. Sharing preliminary findings to help defenders understand emerging risks:

To summarize: HuggingFace got autonomously compromised by a model from an American company. HF then tried to use American frontier model(s) to defend themselves, but were blocked by guardrails. HF then had to turn to open source Chinese models to defend themselves from another American company.

Computers don't need to be so complicated to use! I added voice to a realtime generative image system and it feels so natural. I just talk, it talks back, shows me whatever is helpful, and I can still click on anything to go deeper

Testing, testing, this thing on? Friends, I hear we can actually see each other’s tweets now!
We're rolling out a small tweak to boost visibility of your posts to your mutuals (people who you follow back). We noticed this data was missing from the algo and it made your friends appear less in your replies. This resulted in the reply section feeling more like a battleground with people you don't recognize. This should also help clusters form around interests more easily, which many people have asked for.

I got a diffusion model to run really fast, glued it to a LLM, and it blows my mind how much of the interactivity we expect from software (editing text, dragging things around, clicking on "links") just works™️ in pixel space. The future of software is bright

Very cool writeup and work from @fal. Can't wait to see how powerful structured high res image-gen can be when pushed to sub-second inference
Second part of our series on how we built one of the fastest image generation systems. This time we dive into the diffusion pipeline and show how we hit 0.45s inference with kernel optimizations, quantization-aware distillation, and timestep distillation.

New experiment in the flipbook universe, infinite scroll of interactive interconnected generative editable images! These are actually images, not text overlays or code, but objects in the images are fully editable/movable, and have click interactions attached to them. This is all powered by structured image generation from @ideogram_ai optimized to run in realtime on @modal , and a fast LLM. Video not sped up at all - there's still room to speed this up ~2-5x. More soon :)

Do world models work as a medium for storytelling? Over the weekend, I wanted to see how far I could push realtime interactive models. I settled on creating a guided history of Napoleon's triumph at the Battle of Austerlitz:

New realtime diffusion experiment: ever had an image gen output that you love and wished you could edit it directly? Turns out you can live edit image gen outputs in realtime if you apply enough inference optimization! Just click to move objects around, change their color, even edit text:

Hivemind has been sitting in my texts for months scheming on not my but our behalf (arranging dinners, intros, and ofc gossip) like a nosy well-meaning village elder v excited for the world to see what this feels like! Huge labor of wit, wisdom, and love from @jasonyuan

we started a company!! so, we’re tackling continual learning: what’s the learning algorithm to take arbitrary data — documents, conversations, the models’ own experience — and make better models? how do we scale compute in the same way we’ve already seen with pre-training and inference time, but scaling on the same data we see as humans, day after day with no labels, no rewards? A lot of the ingredients are out there already (rl, distillation, long-context, sparse / param-efficient architectures, etc.). our team is at the frontier of these topics, and we’re singularly focused on this. we want to understand this problem better than anyone else in the world. nobody’s solved this problem yet, but even today it’s extremely greenfield opportunity to co-develop research & useful products. in our space, how people interact with the models defines what the data distribution is - and working on this problem end-to-end, from core science to end user, gives us incredible freedom to define the problem and imagine new kinds of experiences. i expect we’ll use models that continually learn much differently than we’re using them today. it’ll feel different when the models _just know_, and build on our thinking and direction in ways we can’t even imagine. we don’t even know the queries we’re not asking, the things we would do but aren’t able to today. i’m so excited to share what we’re doing with the world in the coming months!! and the team is extremely cracked :) tackling this grand challenge and working alongside @jxmnop @EyubogluSabri @dan_biderman @MayeeChen @__howardchen @shizhehe and many others has made every day so fun. come work with us!

Blew out my birthday candles Rube Goldberg style this year! Thanks to my ingenious, fun-loving friends and family for this contraption and so much more. Onwards 🚀
Latest latentspace pod is excellent. @EthanHe_42 really gets it and lays out a lot of the thinking that led us to Flipbook and how to think about the future of generative UI agents 🤝 video gen 🤝 users

This pod was an incredible gift to the community: not only our first pod about @xAI, but Ethan really indulged on all our questions on how to train a SOTA Videogen world model, including specific areas (consistent extending/editing, voice) that Grok @Imagine is *still* SOTA, on top of the factual overviews he ALSO came loaded with opinions/predictions: - why he's quitting Videogen for LLMs: video models get most of their intelligence from LLMs, not from scaling video data - why the next frontier for videogen also happens to be video agent models - agentic models trained to orchestrate video models - why deterministic compression (like MP4) is a useless target vs VAE compression - Videomaxxing: if you truly believe in the "Moore's law" of AI/genmedia, then video models become the final boss UI of everything, like Flipbook (below)

Proud of my bro @suedadam for already shipping some crazy voodoo mac os magic in just his first few weeks @OpenAI ! Check out remote computer use in Codex, it even works when your computer is locked 🔓🪄

Big shout-out to @suedadam who built & shipped this feature in his first three weeks at OpenAI!
awesome work from the @thinkymachines team. Flipbook is inspired by the same idea; for human+AI collaboration to be better than the model alone, we need higher bandwidth interaction. Not a scaffold/harness for turn based interaction, but where the model is the interface itself

People talk, listen, watch, think, and collaborate at the same time, in real time. We've designed an AI that works with people the same way. We share our approach, early results, and a quick look at our model in action.

wow I just learned @FastCompany did a writeup on us for Flipbook! Love how our vision actually made it through to people
Flipbook treats knowledge less like a database to be queried and more like a landscape to be explored.
(totally unrelated to Flipbook) My friends and I organize a creative make-a-thon summer camp for adults every summer in SF called Fidget Camp and we just opened applications for this year! If you are a creative nerd who loves to learn and teach and make art and be surrounded by others who love the same please apply by May 10th!

thank you all for bearing with us as we scale Flipbook! I know some of you had to wait literally 2 hours to get in yesterday 😭 huge huge thanks to @modal for stepping up to sponsor us 🙌 we now have way more compute available and wait times are down to just a few minutes!

Wow y'all. We are blown away by the response to Flipbook. Thank you. It means the world that so many of you want computing to feel this alive. That is all we ever wanted with getting this out there. To set expectations: Flipbook is a project from a tiny team; the site is a house of cards of APIs and open models tied together with duct tape and string. We did not expect it to blow up like this, and I've been glued to my laptop for 24 hours trying to keep it running! Thank you to everyone reaching out, sharing what you're making, and offering ideas, support, and collabs. Please keep it coming! we're reading all of it, and it's helping us figure out what's next for this.
