The doomsday clock covers general catastrophe, not just nuclear annihilation.

If your concern is that China will develop models that are significantly more powerful than those of the US, why would you care so much about distillation? It seems like distillati…

Plausible, although I don't see anything about reference solutions in the ExploitGym paper or github. Doesn't mean they don't exist, but it's not obvious to me that we should expec…

Assuming I'm looking at the right ExploitGym ( https://arxiv.org/pdf/2605.11086 ), it says the evaluation consists of: Flag Captured. Each target environment contains a dynamically…

This feels like a thing that will be fashionable in a few very specific regions of San Francisco, and nowhere else in the world.

Very hard for me to imagine this getting beyond a low-single-digit market share. I don't understand the strategy of xAI burning money on this.

I'm not sure I understand why this company is talking about "frontier artificial intelligence".

I am having trouble understanding which ingredient you feel is missing here. Can you be more specific? It seems to me that the there was a third party assessment, they identified r…

No, he asked for the government to make the decision in light of 3rd party analysis. Which is what happened here - an independent company demonstrated a jailbreak, and the governme…

"The government should have the power to block or deter deployment of the model if it is determined, in light of third-party assessment, to present unacceptable risks."

This is exactly what Dario asked for in his last blog post. So even though this is clearly stupid, I just can bring myself to feel sorry for Anthropic.

>Craftsmanship will always be in our hands, it's one thing we can never outsource to a machine. Current AI coding is certainly very lacking in the craftsmanship department. But it …

This reminds me also of this paper: https://www.pnas.org/doi/pdf/10.1073/pnas.1115585109 "The allocation of all metabolic resources to maintenance purposes limits the size of the s…

I direct a lot of questions to LLMs, but I want to ask a high-quality model, not the crappy one that Google uses to answer queries. If I'm typing something into Google, it's becaus…

There is an interesting old article by Magic's creator about what the game environment was like during the early playtesting days - when card packs were handed out to a community o…

I could imagine cases where prediction markets could offer some actual insight, but in practice they seem few and far between. Most markets I've seen devolve into one or more of: b…

>But this is where the line slightly blurs in my head. Did we possibly just build the first human biocomputer and immediately put it in a simulated hell, playing the same game on l…

The bad boy of science!

My read is not so much "if we say this is dangerously powerful, it will make people want to buy our product", but rather that there is a significant segment of AI researchers for w…

Unsurprising from Google, but still bad. If Google has no right to object to a particular use, this is equivalent in practice to "any use, lawful or not".

Back when Arena was first announced, there was an interesting line in their write-up: https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/feature/everything-you-nee... >We've created an all-new Game…

Why should we think that pro-social capabilities are simply not expressible by weight-based ANN architectures?

>Tigers, hippos and SARS-CoV-2 also developed ”through evolution”. That does not make them safe to work around. Right, but the article seems to argue that there is some important d…

>Unlike human brains, which are biologically predisposed to acquire prosocial behavior, there is nothing intrinsic in the mathematics or hardware that ensures models are nice. How …
