Mercury 3 is live: the most capable diffusion LLM released to date. It outperforms GPT-6 Luna and Claude Haiku 5.5 across a range of benchmarks while running at over 1,000 tokens per second. More than 40x the size of Mercury 1, 3x more intelligent across standard benchmarks, and just as fast, with a 1M-token context window. Available today on the Inception API, @baseten, and @OpenRouter .

@SimplyUtd @alex_crook The fault is that of the club to offer that money in first place. 𝐂𝐮𝐧𝐡𝐚 knew what Rashford earned when he signed so it’s not new. And too many are making Cunha out to be a potential RVP or CR7 when he is mid to above average with moments.

I see this theory nonsense too often. Bruno did not want to go to Saudi at the time so you cannot force the player. Bruno would have to be willing to be sold and sign a contract with the Saudis. Anyway w/o Bruno United would not be top 4 last season. He is burned out now as the team over rely on him.

MiniMax M3.1 Flash: Space Performance + Bunny Speed 🚀🐰 Yes, Space Bunny - which has topped global leaderboards with 200T+ tokens - was an earlier version of M3.1 Flash. 💰Redefining the performance economics of agentic AI. M3.1 Flash achieves frontier-level intelligence across key tasks such as Cowork (Automation-Bench: 62%; ALE: 30%), Coding (DeepSWE: 74%) and Visual Reasoning (BabyVision: 91%), at 1/3 the cost of M3 and 3x the speed. API pricing (flat rate): $0.15 / $0.60 per 1M input/output tokens, with cache reads at $0.015 / 1M tokens. Model weights will arrive on Oct 23.

FRANCE: Rioters have set fire to the historic City Hall in Limoges, France, causing its roof to burn and its clock tower to collapse. Built in 1883, the 143 year old landmark survived 2 world wars and was designated a protected historical monument in 1975. It’s gone now. x.com/FaytuksNetwork…

@cityzenken_ Modric is considered one of Real Madrid’s all time greats. And Gareth Bale was successful too. Steve Mcmanaman was a success.

If we want to continue progress in science, we must be prepared to acknowledge that the correct description of nature will eventually simply be too complicated for humans to understand. I do not think it is wise to make human understanding a requirement. AI is the way forward.

openai is in serious trouble if their next major release doesn’t surpass opus 5.5. i’m not even joking. anthropic is getting better every day, and openai really can’t afford to disappoint again. they need to deliver something fucking exceptional this time.

This gets difficult. 🇺🇸 threatens action against Europe if it restricts Starlink, but at the same time Starlink restricts use for the defence of a European country 🇺🇦. Europe needs sovereignty - not submission.

🇪🇺🇺🇸 Trump is trying to rescue Moscow. Trump is proposing that Europe resume buying Russian energy as part of a deal to end the war. The EU has rejected this. Sanctions must not be lifted, not now, not in the future, not even after peace. Moscow must be left economically crushed to the point where it can never again threaten its neighbours. That will be the true end of the war, because Russia will no longer have the capacity to wage another one. This is only the beginning of the economic consequences Russia will face.

Anthropic’s report is basically saying humans are the bottleneck. “Amid this model-driven acceleration, human attention is a constant bottleneck. Claude sessions amount to around 80% idly waiting for human input. As one engineer put it, people are “bottlenecking the agents.”

AI neurons run on simple math. Real neurons are far weirder. A new open dataset fitted 1,000+ PyTorch-ready neuron models to real mouse and human cells. Does brain-like diversity make AI better? It's still an open question, but now it's testable. bit.ly/3WfGAwR

Holy cow, so based on OpenAI's UK filings, average salary in 2025 was £794k and £1.52m share based compensation on top of that. So the total was £2.35m = $3.1m per employee

Here is Putin blaming the Poles for forcing Hitler to invade their country. It is the same perverted justification that he uses for invading Ukraine. Putin is very much Hitler's student. His reasoning is that of a controlling psychopath who always blames his victim. By disabling Starshield services for Ukraine's interceptor drones Trump and Musk are actively collaborating in Russia's attempt to kill and terrorise Ukrainian civilians and to make Ukraine's cities uninhabitable. Russia's goal is genocide. It is to totally erase the Ukrainian nation, identity, people, language, culture, and history. For Russia, Ukraine is a country that does not exist, did not exist, must not exist, and will not exist. Putin shows visitors old maps in an attempt to prove to them that there is no such thing as the Ukrainian nation. Musk and Trump are now collaborating in Russia's genocidal war.

JUST IN: Amazon has now deployed over 1 million robots across its operations, raising concerns about the future of its 1.5 million human workers.

BREAKING: The number of restaurants in New York dropped ~2,000 YoY in Q1 2026, posting its largest YoY decline in at least 36 years. This surpasses even the worst contraction recorded in any quarter during the 2020 pandemic. The number of eating and drinking places in New York State has now declined YoY for 4 consecutive quarters, its longest streak since 2021. This comes as restaurants are facing surging operating expenses, including insurance premiums, wages, interest rates, utilities, and health coverage, with overall costs rising faster than national averages. Last year, employee health insurance costs jumped +12.9% for New York-area service firms, business insurance rose +7.0%, while utility costs surged +8.5%, according to the Manhattan Chamber of Commerce. Skyrocketing costs are crushing New York restaurants.
