OpenaI o3 sets new records in several key areas, particularly in reasoning, coding and mathematical problem-solving. It scores 75.7% on the semi-private eval in low-compute mode (for $20 per task in compute ) and 87.5% in high-compute mode (thousands of $ per task). It’s very expensive. It is not just brute force. These capabilities are ... Read more

Gemini 2.0 Experimental Advanced: Complex Task Handling: This version shows significantly improved performance on complex tasks such as coding, math, reasoning, and following instructions, positioning it as Google’s best AI model yet in terms of these capabilities. Benchmark Performance: In benchmarks like Chatbot Arena, ... Read more

TrendForce projects that Nvidia GB200 Rack mass production and peak shipments are unlikely to occur until between Q2 and Q3 of 2025. This is largely due to the higher design specifications of the GB200 rack, including its requirements for high-speed interconnect interfaces and thermal design power (TDP), which significantly exceed market norms. The NVIDIA GB ... Read more

Science Youtuber Sabine Hossenfelder and Neil deGrasse Tyson, Science communicator and astrophysicist claim there is no business case or economic reasons to go to Mars. They also claim there are technological reasons why it cannot happen. They claim Mars cannot be Terraformed for 100s of Years and this would be a show stopper. They claim ... Read more

Elon Musk received assurances from TSMC Chairman CC Wei that they would be able to supply the volume of chips needed for the Teslabot. If this this is accurate then it is to ensure AI5 chips in quantities for Teslabot that are beyond the 5-10 million chips needed for new cars in the 2026-2028 timeframe. ... Read more

Tesla continues its epic run. Tesla China released another good weekly of insurance registrations. This is mainly an indication that the fourth quarter volume production and delivery numbers on January 2, 2025 will be solid. The main driver to the end of the year is the need for institutions to get to equal weight or ... Read more
