This argument is old and goes back to cyber security. Things like government backdoors are the same. It's true centralizing power in the hands of a "good" would theoretically be go…

I'm also at a loss. It feels like some rube goldberg machine of connections among elites, bringing up people with no apparent connection to the article other than being big and in …

I can put up with a little bit of dramatic name dropping in an article at the start, but it never stops. Almost every paragraph is reads like some snappy autobiography of someone t…

They phrase it in a confusing way, with a lot of fluff. But to my understanding what happens is 1. At some part in the transformer, calculate the Jacobian (matrix gradients for tha…

Completely stopping people from using open source models is impossible, but if it became a federal law there could be incredible pressure exerted on US companies. For example, Open…

Paraphrasing him, he says that open source software which tool tens or hundreds of millions to build should be classified as a different category. And the implication being they sh…

I feel obliged to point out the disingenuousness of what this post says and the post it quotes. The most egregious parts are payment fraud and reselling - these are speculated but …

The openness of AI is currently being held up only by Chinese companies (previously Meta, but they stopped). They're not saints, but there is not even a question in the open weight…

I'd hazard anthropic perceives their number 1 enemy as open weight models. If alternatives to their business exist (which is mainly coding tokens currently), they will get into a n…

Anthropic is master of Newspeak (see previously bugs -> vulnerabilities wrt Mythos). Distillation violates their terms of service, which is a civil offense, not a criminal one. It …

I'm confused, is the pitch here to train (to the extent that using an LLM needs training) like Red Cross volunteers to use Claude?

The checking has nothing to do with AI, despite the (massively funded) marketing done to make you think so. It is based on formal methods/theorem provers.

Also, slightly stretching the definition of terms consecutively, so the multiplicative meaning is really far from the truth. For example, 271 vulnerabilities were really mostly bug…

The field is massively hampered by the wishful mnemonics and anthropomorphization of LLMs. For example, even the hallucination idea arbitrarily assigns human semantics to LLM resul…

The more accurate version is only Chinese companies (plus Facebook briefly) really open source their frontier models. The rest are non frontier. They are either older or specialize…

I do think there's value in science communication, but it does take an intelligent understanding of it on a case by case basis as to whether it's genuine or hype marketing. Side no…

I strongly disagree with the claim that it's a phenomenal paper on exploits, the exploits themselves are nowhere near significant in the cybersecurity research sense. It's saying t…

Often at the start yes. So the students gets a bit of recognition, a bit of experience and a bit of knowledge.

Yes, and it's a very interesting use case for Wasm. Firefox has a sandbox called RLbox built on this, and has been published in a few papers. Performance is one benefit, but the re…
