Loyal’s drug for senior dog lifespan extension drug LOY-002 has completed its FDA efficacy package (RXE) We are on track to hopefully bring the first longevity drug to market *this year* Thanks Lisa Bonos + The Washington Post for the exclusive

How can large-scale models + datasets revolutionize neuroscience 🧠🤖🌐? We are excited to announce our workshop: “Building a foundation model for the brain: datasets, theory, and models” at CosyneMeeting #COSYNE2025. Join us in Mont-Tremblant, Canada from March 31 - April 1.

The AI Scientist Generates its First Peer-Reviewed Scientific Publication We’re proud to announce that a paper produced by The AI Scientist-v2 passed the peer-review process at a workshop in ICLR, a top AI conference. Read more about this experiment → sakana.ai/ai-scientist-f…

This might be the first large-scale application of AI technology to geopolitics.. 4o, o3 high, Gemini 2.5 pro, Claude 3.7, Grok all give the same answer to the question on how to impose tariffs easily.

Aran Nayebi Surya Ganguli Agreed on the retina! but hot take: maybe no one should be allowed to call their model a foundation model when they release it. It can only be called a foundation model once it is clear it has been used and built upon by the community.. otherwise what is it a "foundation" for?

we made a map! gap-map.org is a tool we built to help you explore the landscape of R&D gaps holding back science - and the bridge-scale fundamental development efforts that might allow humanity to solve them, across almost two dozen fields

Another step toward a foundation model of the mouse brain: "Neural Encoding and Decoding at Scale (NEDS)" Trained on neural and behavioral data from 70+ mice, NEDS achieves state-of-the-art prediction of behavior (decoding) and neural responses (encoding) on held-out animals.

I'm excited to share our latest work — "Data Heterogeneity Limits the Scaling Effect of Pretraining in Neural Data Transformers", where we examined the effect of scaling up pretraining data in neural foundation models carefully.🧐 (1/9) Preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

🚨 Forest Neurotech is hiring an EE Lead! 🚨 If you've shipped 3+ product lifecycles of small/mixed-signal devices, let's talk. We're looking for mission driven, high IQ+low ego. If you/someone you know matches this description, please reach out.

📢 Heads-up to the neuro-ML/BCI community that we'll launch the Brain-to-Text '25 competition in ~a month, and it'll run through Dec. 31. More intracortical electrodes! More varied utterances! More... speechy? Rumor even has it there'll be cash prizes this year Stay tuned...

New preprint! 🧠🤖 How do we build neural decoders that are: ⚡️ fast enough for real-time use 🎯 accurate across diverse tasks 🌍 generalizable to new sessions, subjects, and species? We present POSSM, a hybrid SSM architecture that optimizes for all three of these axes! 🧵1/7

Our brain-to-voice synthesis brain-computer interface paper was published in nature today! This neuroprosthesis synthesized the voice of a man with ALS instantaneously, enabling him to ‘speak’ flexibly and modulate the prosody of his BCI-voice. 1/7 Paper: rdcu.be/eqH3C

Today we're excited to share a glimpse of what we're building at Generalist. As a first step towards our mission of making general-purpose robots a reality, we're pushing the frontiers of what end-to-end AI models can achieve in the real world. Here's a preview of our early

Russ's recent talk at Stanford has to be my favorite in the past couple of years. I have asked everyone in my lab to watch it. youtube.com/watch?v=TN1M6v… IMO our community has accrued a huge amount of "research debt" (analogous to "technical debt") through flashy demos and

🚨 Forest Neurotech is hiring across domains and levels! 🚨 We just added a Hardware Test Engineer role and have open roles for SWEs and EEs. More coming soon. If you (or someone you know) is mission driven, high IQ, and low ego, let's talk!

We're excited to announce the Brain-to-Text '25 competition, with a new intracortical speech neuroscience dataset and $9,000 in prizes generously provided by Blackrock Neurotech!. Can you do better than us at decoding speech-related neural activity into text? kaggle.com/competitions/b…

Today, we at OpenAI achieved a milestone that many considered years away: gold medal-level performance on the 2025 IMO with a general reasoning LLM—under the same time limits as humans, without tools. As remarkable as that sounds, it’s even more significant than the headline 🧵
