Anyone with a question can now do real research with AIPOCH Open-Science @aipoch_ai shipped version 1.0.0, an open-source AI workbench that keeps the code and data behind every result You ask in plain words and the AI runs the analysis in one workspace Every result stays tied to the inputs and the code that made it, so anyone can check or rerun it It is Apache 2.0 and your projects stay on your own machine There are desktop apps for Mac and Windows, with Linux covered too You pick the model, from cloud providers to a Claude or Codex subscription The research travels as a .science package that someone else can open and build on My favorite gallery case backtests $10,000 in NVIDIA against Bitcoin and keeps every step on record aipoch.com/open-science/u… It ranks #1 on the BiomniBench-DA Public 50 community ranking with a 79.05 score On ASI-Bench B1 it scored 79.35 in AIPOCH's own runs, above Codex on the same model Preprint with the full .science spec arxiv.org/abs/2610.17110 Star the repo and run your first question tonight github.com/aipoch/open-sc… #AI4Science #OpenScience

@pasha_insights Can I get a job at McDonald’s? lol

Francis Davidson built Sonder, and now he has built the travel agent I actually want to use Odessia is registered as an IATA travel agent, so it books hotels the way a real agency does That gets you private rates and perks like late checkout at the top hotels, with the AI doing the legwork In his side-by-side demo it reached checkout at 0:52 while Muse was still typing It scores every 4 and 5 star hotel, down to how loud the street gets and how the room sleeps Shift a trip by two days and it finds the same room for less It is free, and recommendations are never influenced by commission levels Text it your next trip and let it hunt the dates for you

We’re months away from AGI and the leisure economy’s about to explode Today, we’re launching Odessia, an always-on concierge for travel and experiences Prices are spiking, places are getting crowded. Odessia is your cheat code to going places Text to get started for free

which motor should your first robot use? servo vs dc gearmotor vs stepper vs brushless most first builds stall at the motor, so pick it by the job here is how i'd pick: 1. hobby servos put one in when: - a gripper opens and closes - a camera pans and tilts - a joint has to hold an angle a 9g sg90 is about $2 in a pack of ten, runs on 5v and sweeps about 180 degrees the position control sits inside the case, so one pin drives it and you buy no driver board the usual first failure: fed from the board's 5v pin it stalls under load, the board browns out and resets and that looks like a code bug the day the robot has to roll, a servo stops being the answer 2. dc gearmotors put them in when: - wheels - a base that drives around - a speed you can set a yellow tt gearmotor is $1 to $3, an n20 with an encoder about $10 cheap and in every chassis kit, which is why nearly every first robot rolls on them both need an h-bridge like the drv8833 between the motor and your pins skip the l298n for small motors, it loses around 2v inside a 6v motor sees 4 and the wheels crawl without an encoder pwm only sets power two motors from the same bag turn at different speeds and the robot curves add the encoder and close the loop 3. steppers put one in when: - a position has to be exact with no sensor - a move has to repeat the same way every time - a plotter or a small arm - the axis has to hold while standing still a nema 17 is about $10 and moves 1.8 degrees a step, the driver is an a4988 you count steps instead of measuring where the axis is, so no sensor and no tuning it draws full current while standing still, so it runs hot doing nothing and when you overload it, it skips steps and nothing in your code notices so the count drifts from the real axis 4. brushless, later put one in when: - a drone - a balancing robot or a quadruped joint - a lot of power from a small, light motor it wants an esc or a field oriented controller and a sensor on the shaft and it will not run smooth at low speed until you tune it simplefoc and odrive do the hard math, the tuning is still yours so, by job: has to hold an angle > servo has to roll > gearmotor plus encoder has to stop at an exact spot > stepper has to fly or run on legs > brushless and most robots use two or three of these servos > joints gearmotors > wheels steppers > the one axis that must be exact one rule covers all four: motors get their own supply, never the board's 5v pin and the two grounds meet in one place the first code bug you chase will be that wire

@stacy_muur Zero-budget marketing tactics save money and become the only tactics you can afford while building alone

You want to be able to trust them, the same way you would have to train a new employee before you let them be autonomous." 44 minutes of the two people who built Grok Bot showing the 14 bots they use every day Her engineering bots now land pull requests she only reads after they ship Watch it, then read the full guide on hiring your first Grok Bot below

@0xTreff with 50 labels one wrong answer is already 2% is that enough to trust the 5% error number, or better to write more?

A custodian lost the keys to $150M at Albert Castellana's last company Suing to get it back cost $1M in court fees before the case even started He walked out of that fight with $14,000 and one question "What if you could build a judge that nobody controls?" That question became @GenLayer When two sides disagree on a deal, a jury of independent AI judges weighs the evidence The verdict lands in minutes, for people and for AI agents No company owns the result GenLayer already handles 20K+ adjudications a day Rally uses it to judge creator campaigns Prediction markets use it to settle contested outcomes Internet Court makes it the default for agent disputes, with MetaMask and OKX on board The founders built multi-billion-dollar crypto projects before this one They raised $10M+, with Arthur Hayes among the backers The portal is GenLayer's house Builders and validators live there, and anyone can walk in to learn more: portal.genlayer.foundation

AWS just showed how Jev stops an agent from calling a tool with a made-up argument 11 minutes from Mike Chambers, senior developer advocate at AWS One request asks Jev 4 yes/no questions about the tool call before it runs Jev scored the assumed Seattle 0.04, so the agent asked which city the user meant Watch it, then read the full guide on writing Jev questions below

@Blum_OG thanks Blum if you try one thing first, send all your questions in one request. TypeSafe's 13-question example came out 12x cheaper that way

Researchers just caught AI agents inventing answers when their tools quietly break They gave an agent over a thousand requests, like a bank balance or a patient's lab result, and rigged every tool to send back nothing usable When the tool openly returned an error, the agent reported it honestly But when the tool said everything was fine and sent back a blanked-out value, the agent answered as if it had the number, or made up a reason it couldn't share it, almost half the time What makes it worse is that every agent framework prompt they tested had this problem, and none of the nine they checked tells the model what to do when a tool fails Personally, I'm adding one sentence to every agent I run, it has to mark each lookup as OK or FAILED before answering, and in the paper that alone cut dishonest answers from 14% to under 1%

Duke researchers just showed you can break an AI search agent without feeding it a single false fact They slipped true pages into its search results, each one answering a slightly different version of the question Asked which film won Best Picture at the 89th Oscars, the agent read a true page saying La La Land was first named the winner, and answered La La Land instead of Moonlight And the later that page showed up in the search, and the more it looked like a finished answer, the more often the agent took the bait The worst part is that fact-checking can't catch this, every planted page is true, and telling the agent to double-check every condition in the question only partly helped Personally, this is what worries me, we're handing our research to agents that can't tell a true answer from the right one
