What it does
A comprehensive, current field guide to the AI revolution: every frontier lab, every model, the chip wars, power grids, reasoning models, the data wall, and the road to superintelligence.
Every frontier lab, every model, the chip wars, the data wall, AGI timelines, and the road to superintelligence — a living, citation-driven field guide.
We have entered the Silicon Epoch . In the next decade, artificial intelligence will rewrite science, medicine, work, geopolitics, and the texture of daily life. This is a living, deeply researched guide to who is building it, how it works, the grid that powers it, and where it is going. TSMC 2nm GAA nanosheets, Intel 18A, backside power, and the critical CoWoS advanced packaging capacity bottlenecks powering high-performance accelerators. Transformers, self-attention, GQA, Dense vs Mixture of Experts (MoE), and linear-complexity alternatives like Mamba 3 and Linear Recurrent Units. From OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol family and Google's Gemini 3.5 to Anthropic's Claude Fable 5, Meta's Maverick,…from siliconepoch.vercel.app

We post-trained a model that pen tests instead of refusingJun 2026 · argusred.com · ▲93Anthropic and OpenAI's publicly available models are explicitly guard-railed so that they refuse offensive tasks. And their cyber-focussed models are gated for enterprises. This leaves SMEs and mid market open to major vulnerabilities. AI can be used as both an adversarial and defensive tool in the world of cyber. A worst case outcome is if only the adversaries have access. Meanwhile, most existing AI cyber tools are just wrappers. The problem is that they still have all the guardrails on from the foundation model where they will inherit its refusals. For this project we've post-trained a…
My Attempt to Organize the World of AI Dev Tools2025 · aicode.danvoronov.com · ▲101I've been exploring the (not so=) amazing potential of AI in coding and have compiled a list of tools. From AI-powered IDEs to code generators, this resource is my contribution to the community. I'm still on the fence about including txt2sql projects, as their functionality seems too basic to me. And I'm personally maintaining this, so your feedback is wellcome.

Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
