Browns ownership has come out and admitted what we knew all along that Watson was not going to work out the road to mania torpedo bats and more

Ben and Tumaini reconvene to try to make sense of the big lawsuit filed by the PTPA and a group of lesser-known players against the powers-that-be in tennis, what we make of the organization, and this big swing they're taking after years of not being recognized. What do we make of the PTPA's 163-page laundry list of claims? What points resonate and which don't? And is there an inconsistency between their purported purpose for players and the arguments they're making? (You can also read Ben's interview with PTPA executive director Ahmad Nassar.) After spending the first 40 minutes on that, we discuss other topics that have emerged in the past week or so, including Novak Djokovic's image being frequently used by right-wing politicians, the current ATP inconsistency, Emma Raducanu's struggles and resurgence, and Naomi Osaka's trajectory. We end with a melancholy happy trails to author John Feinstein, and lots of love for NCR's dear Courtney.  Thank you for listening! Our Patreon is back up and running to ensure NCR keeps going and stays ad-free, and we hope you can join in supporting NCR! And we especially thank our GOAT backers: Pam Shriver and J. O'D. And please check out Ben's new writing home, Bounces! And Tumaini's work at The Guardian! 

Hunter Somerville, a partner at Stepstone Group, where he focuses on venture capital investing with a particular specialty of digital assets and micro venture capital. Based in the Baltimore area, we reflect on what made him stay in and return to that area and the path he took to get to venture capital. Our conversation digs into the weeds of venture capital investing including digital assets, blockchain as well as the market in secondary venture capital interests. We discuss liquidity, M&A, the IPO window and current headwinds for the venture capital industry as well as how investor use of these strategies is changing. We turn then to innovation and how people have started to embrace "big swing innovation" - innovation that can tackle big problems in categories such as defense, climate, aerospace and energy. AI does feature, but not as a lead character, more in a supporting role.  This Series is sponsored by Eagle Point Credit Management and Benefit Street Partners.

Holy moly, AI enthusiasts! Alex Volkov here, reporting live from the AI Engineer Summit in the heart of (touristy) Times Square, New York! This week has been an absolute whirlwind of announcements, from XAI's Grok 3 dropping like a bomb, to Figure robots learning to hand each other things, and even a little eval smack-talk between OpenAI and XAI. It's enough to make your head spin – but that's what ThursdAI is here for. We sift through the chaos and bring you the need-to-know, so you can stay on the cutting edge without having to, well, spend your entire life glued to X and Reddit.This week we had a very special live show with the Haize Labs folks, the ones I previously interviewed about their bijection attacks, discussing their open source judge evaluation library called Verdict. So grab your favorite caffeinated beverage, maybe do some stretches because your mind will be blown, and let's dive into the TL;DR of ThursdAI, February 20th, 2025!Participants* Alex Volkov: AI Evangelist with Weights and Biases* Nisten: AI Engineer and cohost* Akshay: AI Community Member* Nuo: Dev Advocate at 01AI* Nimit: Member of Technical Staff at Haize Labs* Leonard: Co-founder at Haize LabsOpen Source LLMsPerplexity's R1 7076: Censorship-Free DeepSeekPerplexity made a bold move this week, releasing R1 7076, a fine-tuned version of DeepSeek R1 specifically designed to remove what they (and many others) perceive as Chinese government censorship. The name itself, 1776, is a nod to American independence – a pretty clear statement! The core idea? Give users access to information on topics the CCP typically restricts, like Tiananmen Square and Taiwanese independence.Perplexity used human experts to identify around 300 sensitive topics and built a "censorship classifier" to train the bias out of the model. The impressive part? They claim to have done this without significantly impacting the model's performance on standard evals. As Nuo from 01AI pointed out on the show, though, he'd "actually prefer that they can actually disclose more of their details in terms of post training... Running the R1 model by itself, it's already very difficult and very expensive." He raises a good point – more transparency is always welcome! Still, it's a fascinating attempt to tackle a tricky problem, the problem which I always say we simply cannot avoid. You can check it out yourself on Hugging Face and read their blog post.Arc Institute & NVIDIA Unveil Evo 2: Genomics PowerhouseGet ready for some serious science, folks! Arc Institute and NVIDIA dropped Evo 2, a massive genomics model (40 billion parameters!) trained on a mind-boggling 9.3 trillion nucleotides. And it's fully open – two papers, weights, data, training, and inference codebases. We love to see it!Evo 2 uses the StripedHyena architecture to process huge genetic sequences (up to 1 million nucleotides!), allowing for analysis of complex genomic patterns. The practical applications? Predicting the effects of genetic mutations (super important for healthcare) and even designing entire genomes. I've been super excited about genomics models, and seeing these alternative architectures like StripedHyena getting used here is just icing on the cake. Check it out on X.ZeroBench: The "Impossible" Benchmark for VLLMsNeed more benchmarks? Always! A new benchmark called ZeroBench arrived, claiming to be the "impossible benchmark" for Vision Language Models (VLLMs). And guess what? All current top-of-the-line VLLMs get a big fat zero on it.One example they gave was a bunch of scattered letters, asking the model to "answer the question that is written in the shape of the star among the mess of letters." Honestly, even I struggled to see the star they were talking about. It highlights just how much further VLLMs need to go in terms of true visual understanding. (X, Page, Paper, HF)Hugging Face's Ultra Scale Playbook: Scaling UpFor those of you building massive models, Hugging Face released the Ultra Scale Playbook, a guide to building and scaling AI models on huge GPU clusters.They ran 4,000 scaling experiments on up to 512 GPUs (nothing close to Grok's 100,000, but still impressive!). If you're working in a lab and dreaming big, this is definitely a resource to check out. (HF).Big CO LLMs + APIsGrok 3: XAI's Big Swing new SOTA LLM! (and Maybe a Bug?)Monday evening, BOOM! While some of us were enjoying President's Day, the XAI team dropped Grok 3. They announced it with a setting very similar to OpenAI announcements. They're claiming state-of-the-art performance on some benchmarks (more on that drama later!), and a whopping 1 million token context window, finally confirmed after some initial confusion. They talked a lot about agents and a future of reasoners as well.The launch was a bit… messy. First, there was a bug where some users were getting Grok 2 even when the dropdown said Grok 3. That led to a lot of mixed reviews. Even when I finally thought I was using Grok 3, it still flubbed my go-to logic test, the "Beth's Ice Cubes" question. (The answer is zero, folks – ice cubes melt!). But Akshay, who joined us on the show, chimed in with some love: "...with just the base model of Grok 3, it's, in my opinion, it's the best coding model out there." So, mixed vibes, to say the least! It's also FREE for now, "until their GPUs melt," according to XAI, which is great.UPDATE: The vibes are shifting, more and more of my colleagues and mutuals are LOVING grok3 for one shot coding, for talking to it. I'm getting convinced as well, though I did use and will continue to use Grok for real time data and access to X. DeepSearchIn an attempt to show off some Agentic features, XAI also launched a deep search (not research like OpenAI but effectively the same) Now, XAI of course has access to X, which makes their deep search have a leg up, specifically for real time information! I found out it can even “use” the X search! OpenAI's Open Source TeaseIn what felt like a very conveniently timed move, Sam Altman dropped a poll on X the same day as the Grok announcement: if OpenAI were to open-source something, should it be a small, mobile-optimized model, or a model on par with o3-mini? Most of us chose o3 mini, just to have access to that model and play with it. No indication of when this might happen, but it's a clear signal that OpenAI is feeling the pressure from the open-source community.The Eval Wars: OpenAI vs. XAIThings got spicy! There was a whole debate about the eval numbers XAI posted, specifically the "best of N" scores (like best of 64 runs). Boris from OpenAI, and Aiden mcLau called out some of the graphs. Folks on X were quick to point out that OpenAI also used "best of N" in the past, and the discussion devolved from there.XAI is claiming SOTA. OpenAI (or some folks from within OpenAI) aren't so sure. The core issue? We can't independently verify Grok's performance because there's no API yet! As I said, "…we're not actually able to use this model to independently evaluate this model and to tell you guys whether or not they actually told us the truth." Transparency matters, folks!DeepSearch - How Deep?Grok also touted a new "Deep Search" feature, kind of like Perplexity or OpenAI's "Deep Research" in their more expensive plan. My initial tests were… underwhelming. I nicknamed it "Shallow Search" because it spent all of 34 seconds on a complex query where OpenAI's Deep Research took 11 minutes and cited 17 sources. We're going to need to do some more digging (pun intended) on this one.This Week's BuzzWe're leaning hard into agents at Weights & Biases! We just released an agents whitepaper (check it out on our socials!), and we're launching an agents course in collaboration with OpenAI's Ilan Biggio. Sign up at wandb.me/agents! We're hearing so much about agent evaluation and observability, and we're working hard to provide the tools the community needs.Also, sadly, our Toronto workshops are completely sold out. But if you're at AI Engineer in New York, come say hi to our booth! And catch my talk on LLM Reasoner Judges tomorrow (Friday) at 11 am EST – it'll be live on the AI Engineer YouTube channel (HERE)!Vision & VideoMicrosoft MUSE: Playable Worlds from a Single ImageThis one is wild. Microsoft's MUSE can generate minutes of playable gameplay from just a single second of video frames and controller actions.It's based on the World and Human Action Model (WHAM) architecture, trained on a billion gameplay images from Xbox. So if you've been playing Xbox lately, you might be in the model! I found it particularly cool: "…you give it like a single second of a gameplay of any type of game with all the screen elements, with percentages, with health bars, with all of these things and their model generates a game that you can control." (X, HF, Blog).StepFun's Step-Video-T2V: State-of-the-Art (and Open Source!)We got two awesome open-source video breakthroughs this week. First, StepFun's Step-Video-T2V (and T2V Turbo), a 30 billion parameter text-to-video model. The results look really good, especially the text integration. Imagine a Chinese girl opening a scroll, and the words "We will open source" appearing as she unfurls it. That's the kind of detail we're talking about.And it's MIT licensed! As Nisten noted "This is pretty cool. It came out. Right before Sora came out, people would have lost their minds." (X, Paper, HF, Try It).HAO AI's FastVideo: Speeding Up HY-VideoThe second video highlight: HAO AI released FastVideo, a way to make HY-Video (already a strong open-source contender) three times faster with no additional training! They call the trick "Sliding Tile Attention" apparently that alone provides enormous boost compared to even flash attention.This is huge because faster inference means these models become more practical for real-world use. And, bonus: it supports HY-Video's Loras, meaning you can fine-tune it for, ahem, all kinds of creative applications. I will not go as far as to mention civit ai. (Github)Figure's Helix: Robot Collaboration!Breaking news from the AI Engineer conference floor: Figure, the humanoid robot company, announced Helix, a Vision-Language-Action (VLA) model built into their robots!It has full upper body control!What blew my mind: they showed two robots working together, handing objects to each other, based on natural language commands! As I watched, I exclaimed, "I haven't seen a humanoid robot, hand off stuff to the other one... I found it like super futuristically cool." The model runs on the robot, using a 7 billion parameter VLM for understanding and an 80 million parameter transformer for control. This is the future, folks!Tools & OthersMicrosoft's New Quantum Chip (and State of Matter!)Microsoft announced a new quantum chip and a new state of matter (called "topological superconductivity"). "I found it like absolutely mind blowing that they announced something like this," I gushed on the show. While I'm no quantum physicist, this sounds like a big deal for the future of computing.Verdict: Hayes Labs' Framework for LLM JudgesAnd of course, the highlight of our show: Verdict, a new open-source framework from Hayes Labs (the folks behind those "bijection" jailbreaks!) for composing LLM judges. This is a huge deal for anyone working on evaluation. Leonard and Nimit from Hayes Labs joined us to explain how Verdict addresses some of the core problems with LLM-as-a-judge: biases (like preferring their own responses!), sensitivity to prompts, and the challenge of "meta-evaluation" (how do you know your judge is actually good?).Verdict lets you combine different judging techniques ("primitives") to create more robust and efficient evaluators. Think of it as "judge-time compute scaling," as Leonard called it. They're achieving near state-of-the-art results on benchmarks like ExpertQA, and it's designed to be fast enough to use as a guardrail in real-time applications!One key insight: you don't always need a full-blown reasoning model for judging. As Nimit explained, Verdict can combine simpler LLM calls to achieve similar results at a fraction of the cost. And, it's open source! (Paper, Github,X).ConclusionAnother week, another explosion of AI breakthroughs! Here are my key takeaways:* Open Source is THRIVING: From censorship-free LLMs to cutting-edge video models, the open-source community is delivering incredible innovation.* The Need for Speed (and Efficiency): Whether it's faster video generation or more efficient LLM judging, performance is key.* Robots are Getting Smarter (and More Collaborative): Figure's Helix is a glimpse into a future where robots work together.* Evaluation is (Finally) Getting Attention: Tools like Verdict are essential for building reliable and trustworthy AI systems.* The Big Players are Feeling the Heat: OpenAI's open-source tease and XAI's rapid progress show that the competition is fierce.I'll be back in my usual setup next week, ready to break down all the latest AI news.

Jason and Frank are back with a fresh episode of the DFO Rundown as they began to sink their teeth into the trade with market. With the deadline now less than two months away, things are only going to continue heating up.To start today's pod, the guys talked about the Boston Bruins continued struggles. They've already made a coaching change this season, but do they need to find another way to shake things up? The guys debated that and it eventually led them to trying to figure out if the Bruins could find a way to get one Elias Pettersson or JT Miller from the Vancouver Canucks.Frank has an all new version of his Trade Targets board that is headlined by Islanders forward Brock Nelson. They discussed some potential landing spots for him and some other names in Frank's top 25, like Sabres centre Dylan Cozens.Which teams will be buyers or sellers is still up in the air a little bit, but there are some very interesting teams around the league. One of them is the Washington Capitals, their first half of the season would lead you to believe that they should be all in, but would they be willing to disrupt the chemistry that their group currently has?Tyler then popped in for a new edition of Buy or Sell where he asked the guys about the players on pace for 100-points, the Norris race, and what both the Rangers and Islanders could sell off at the deadline.3:40 - Are the Bruins a playoff team?14:40 - Are Boston & Vancouver good trade partners?21:00 - What's the market for Dylan Cozens?24:30 - Nelson headlines trade targets board31:20 - What could the Capitals do?46:05 - Buy or Sell (Rangers, Islanders, Werenski, 100-pt players)Want to hear more from Frank, Jason and the entire DFO team?

For who has despised the day of small things? – Zechariah 4:10a

This week, Quinta and Scott were joined by Lawfare Managing Editor Tyler "Spicy Tyler" McBrien to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“Jack Smith Takes a Mulligan on his Big Swing.” A grand jury has re-indicted former President Trump for his actions relating to the Jan. 6 insurrection, after Special Counsel Jack Smith trimmed and massaged the allegations to accommodate the Supreme Court's recent ruling on presidential immunity. How different is this indictment? What are the next steps in the trial? And will these new allegations have better odds of surviving Supreme Court review?“An Eye for an Eye Leaves the Whole World in a Bind.” This past week, Israel and Hezbollah traded another vicious round of attacks along Israel's shared northern border with Lebanon, as part of the long-awaited response to Israel's targeted killing of Hezbollah leaders a month ago. Now the region is waiting with bated breath to see whether this will be the end of it or the start of a larger war. How significant is the risk of escalation? And what will this mean for, among other things, ongoing ceasefire negotiations in relation to Gaza?“Send Me a Kiss by Wire.” Pavel Durov, the CEO of the Russia-based encrypted messaging platform Telegram—which, in addition to being the platform of choice in much of the world, has become a popular choice among criminals and terrorist groups due to its lack of content moderation—was arrested earlier this week in Paris, and is under questioning in relation to possible criminal charges arising from the criminal use of Telegram. What is motivating this move by French authorities? For object lessons, Quinta recommended "When a Department Self-Destructs," Jennifer Schoenefeld's dramatic account of the in-fighting within Pomona College's English department. Scott threw his endorsement in (alongside the Academy's) for the beautifully mumblecore-ish film "Past Lives." And Tyler urged listeners to check out Tanya Gold's upsetting account of the commercialization of the Holocaust, tellingly entitled "My Auschwitz Vacation."Note: Our discussion of Pavel Durov's arrest in France predated his indictment by French authorities.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.

The U.S. women's and men's Olympic teams will be decided after the U.S. trials, with the biggest names in the sport competing in Minneapolis. 41:00: A nice win for the Twins and a big debut set for Thursday.

The Cincinnati Bengals picked Amarius Mims with the 18th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. The guys break down the mammoth UGA product's upside and risk, why it made sense, and what it means for Frank Pollack to have a litmus test for the "can he develop a tackle" question. We also discuss who they passed on to make Mims the pick, and whether that choice was a reasonable one. Join the Locked On Bengals Insider Community! https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonbengalsFind and follow Locked On Bengals on your favorite podcast platforms:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/locked-on-bengals-daily-podcast-on-the-cincinnati-bengals/id1159723162Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7AObc0lh0WmQl5fJVgtajsGoogle Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vbG9ja2Vkb25iZW5nYWxz?sa=X&ved=0CAYQrrcFahcKEwio_sXtj8nuAhUAAAAAHQAAAAAQAgStitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/show/locked-on-bengals Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Home ChefNo more asking "what are we going to have for dinner" thanks to Home Chef and their chef designed recipes.
