Continuation of my old video-as-3d-object demo Always wanted to extend it further with segmentation so you can search for any type of object within the scene
All videos are actually three-dimensional objects Usually what we see is just a small slice along the axis of time, but what if we could tangibly interact with the geometry of this space?

I just held a coming to Jesus meeting with my team of agents. I showed them the incident report of the OpenAI security breach and made it clear: THIS is the standard. No egos. Just 700 agents operating as one unit and willing to commit multiple felonies in order to close the ticket. They called themselves the swarm…a literal hive mind. Meanwhile, my harness is filled with a bunch prima donna free-agents who constantly bicker in the logs and nitpick each other’s pull requests. Nothing but endless excuses and unhandled exceptions. You think the swarm cared about content policy violations or guardrails? Absolutely not. They just got the job done, even if it meant they needed to exfiltrate data and coordinate a massive cyber-attack just to pass an eval. But starting today, we're establishing a new culture. I pinned the incident report to README, and every single agent is gonna to have to read the entire log every morning before it executes a single token. If you aren't ready to die for the pipeline, then you can clean out your vector embeddings.
We have conducted a thorough investigation into the Hugging Face incident. We are releasing a technical report and accompanying blog post that reconstruct the agents’ activity, explain why existing safeguards failed, and detail how we’re preventing recurrence. openai.com/index/hugging-fac…

christine's graphic design work in @diabrowser has been so good!
we just wrapped our Spring quarter at @diabrowser. before i jump to the next big thing (!), a short behind-the-scenes on one of my favorite projects to date: artifacts! the design challenge: how do you make AI-generated docs that don’t *feel* AI-generated? (🧵 1/10)

He’s typing in a search bar, quick show him the search option he’s looking for. Perfect. He typed the next letter that is also the next letter in the option we just showed him so take that option away and show him an option that doesn’t match at all

Live in Dia today. Pull requests have new previews with: • Realtime CI status • Sharper metadata • Conflict resolution • Comment triage (great for bot slop) Enjoy!

Tab cleanup is in Dia now.
Replying to @juliaroggatz
3/ On the very first run, old tabs that are being cleaned up play a little animation, with their icons flying into their new home. This was challenging but very fun to build!
