LLMs were predicted to be making new, novel discoveries and inventions by now. Since we are now at Fable-class models, has this actually happened? What are the best examples (which I may be unaware of) where LLM agents have discovered or developed truly new ideas or solutions?

All builds on recent work of Jay Bhan, Nicole Nobili and Patrick Langer: arxiv.org/abs/2605.01120

New Bounds for Zarankiewicz Numbers via Reinforced LLM Evolutionary Search

The Zarankiewicz number $\textbf{Z}(m, n, s, t)$ is the maximum number of edges in a bipartite graph $G_{m, n}$ such that there is no complete $K_{s, t}$ bipartite subgraph. We determine for the...

This was taped a week before the world agreed that it was important to define the term "jailbreak" (Have we figured out what "jailbreak" means yet btw?)

Dylan Field @zoink: AI jailbreaking is understudied, and the government is watching. On the day of this recording, Field flagged a live US government discussion with Anthropic over a model jailbreak. His take, to Molly O'Shea @MollySOShea: the industry's posture is too weak. He wants HackerOne-style public bounty programs with real incentive to break models, not just lab-run red teams - and an agreed definition of "jailbreak" before regulation can bite. Dario Amodei @darioamodei has made safety and red-teaming central to Anthropic's pitch, which is exactly why this government attention matters. If you hold AI-lab exposure - Anthropic in particular - track jailbreaking regulation as a real risk input, not background noise.

Most AI ads in San Francisco are shouting for attention. I wanted to make one for Rox that added to the beauty of SF instead of yelling over it.

The Design Talent War has expanded from companies to countries.

Good news for designers/creatives!! The UK has officially expanded its Global Talent Visa with a dedicated pathway for the design industry. If you're a graphic designer, UX/UI designer, product designer, brand designer, industrial designer or work in any eligible design field, you may now have a clearer route to live and work in the UK without needing employer sponsorship. For designers looking to take their careers global, this is a major opportunity.

I’m so excited to share this update on @Conception – We’ve generated the first early human eggs derived from stem cells. This is a big deal -- the potential to redefine fertility is real.

CONFIG: Dylan Field (aka @zoink), Founder & CEO of @Figma says: "You have to actually think." "There's a world where a lot of people are letting AI think for them... & they're tricking themselves into believing they're thinking, themselves." "Especially when the AI is sycophantic & it's telling you you're so great, & you're such a genius, but then giving you what it wants to do.. that's no longer your idea. That's no longer your intention." "Use AI as a tool to learn, a tool to understand the world better, a tool for leverage to get the non-critical stuff done faster."

Idk, call it "Figma Motion" or something. I'd definitely pay for this. @zoink @joshclemm c'mon. Same layers, groups, components and canvas. Just add: A timeline keyframes speed ramps video & audio layers MP4 export I already know Figma. I just wanna animate my designs.
