8 days ago, while jogging, I asked Claude to solve the Riemann Hypothesis It didn’t. 1.5 days later, it proved >= 67% of the zeros are on the line (prev: 41.6%) Still not sure what that means, but some analytic number theorists seem excited

I think ambitious people should treat life in “seasons” rather than trying to balance everything every day. A few years massively overallocated to work. A period getting seriously fit. A year or two nomading. Then family takes priority for a while. Then maybe at 35 you go completely insane again and spend four years building a new company, and so on. The mistake is thinking every metric needs to stay green all the time. Most great outcomes (building a company, writing sth serious, training for an event) need uninterrupted runs, not daily moderation. Sometimes work should suffer cause you’re travelling, sometimes your social life should suffer cause you’re building, sometimes career progression should slow cause family matters more. That’s fine. And tbh it probably makes life more fun too. You get actual chapters and completely different versions of yourself instead of spending 40 years maintaining the same perfectly optimised routine. A few intense years in one city, a weird nomad phase, an obsession that takes over your life, then something completely different. Probably much more memorable than one very long well-optimised Tuesday. It's why I encourage everyone to think of balance in years, not days. A good life can look horribly unbalanced on some random Tuesday and still be very balanced over 10 years.

谷歌组织架构大洗牌！ Demis Hassabis 卸任 Google Deepmind 的 CEO，转任 GDM 主席兼 Alphabet 首席科学家，同时继续领导 Isomorphic Labs，把主要精力放在 AGI 的长远方向、全球战略以及用 AI 推动科学与医疗突破上； “我们已抵达人类历史上的一个关键时刻。我一生都在为 AGI 努力，现在，就像你们许多人一样，我感觉它近在咫尺” —— Demis Hassabis Koray Kavukcuoglu 从 Deepmind CTO、Google 首席 AI 架构师升任 Google DeepMind 高级副总裁，直接向 Pichai 汇报，全面负责 Gemini 模型研发、前沿 AI 研究以及 Gemini 应用与开发者团队。其实就是接替 Demis 的管理工作，他在 DeepMind 已工作 13 年，，曾主导 WaveNet、DQN 等成果； 在谷歌工作 27 年的 Jeff Dean 将与资深研究员 Sanjay Ghemawat 一起离开，创办一家独立的公益性质公司 Discovery Loop，专注“全自动科学发现的闭环”研究；Google 会作为创始投资方和云服务合作伙伴继续与他们合作。Dean 告诉 NYT，离开 Google 让他有更多余地专注于科学发现； 三位最初的 Gemini 负责人如今全部离职：Noam Shazeer 去了 OpenAI，Dean 和 Vinyals 去了 Discovery Loop。 我如何看待这次调整？ 在 2023 年 Google 合并 Google Brain 与 Deepmind，于是有了 Gemini 的成功；三年后 Google 再次面临大公司病、组织障碍（人才保留上的结构性问题）和工程低效的挑战，于是有了这次必要又意料之外的调整。 部分传言 Demis 因 Gemini 执行不力而被边缘化，换上Koray 是希望把“研究强、产品化慢”这个 Google 的老毛病治好，对比 OpenAI / Anthropic 快速产品化，Google 需要证明也能更快的迭代。所以 Google 全村的希望都在 Gemini 4，内部确认已经有了重大进展。我保留短期观察，长期看好的判断👀 其实 Google 已经证明了目前不用靠模型的能力，只用买算力就能保持盈利优势，Google 是目前唯一的全栈 AI 科技巨头。现在决定内部加速产品化，再利用投资加孵化，既能解决人才保留的问题，又可以抢占 AGI 与科学前沿。 这是 Google 的角色优化，并非危机。执行力与人才保留正在成为新的竞争护城河，技术不再是 Google 的短板，专注和敏捷才是。
