Press Space to continue

Visited the lab - was struck both by how wide the search space is for materials synthesis experiments, and also how amenable it is to depth first search, where the design and informativeness of your next experiment improves as you pile up more data from previous runs.

We built high-throughput materials labs in Menlo Park to create a loop between experiments and models. The labs generate fresh data, the models learn from it, and then help us decide what to try next. Using only 1,300 H200s, plus months of our experimental data, we mid-trained and RL’d an open-source model to surpass GPT-6 Astra on our analysis benchmark. We call it Neon. This is real footage from our lab. We’re focusing first on hard problems in materials science, including superconductors, magnets, and semiconductor materials. Read our blog posts below.
