    You're right; I should've been more precise. However, we have tools for dealing with this—that's what quality-adjusted life-years are for! I don't contest that surgeries often sign…

    Lol, I just care a lot about saving as many lives as I can; the most effective charities I've been able to find good evidence on save one life for $6–8k. If Watsi had a credible cl…

    Watsi seems to be doing great work, but the title—"you helped save 33k lives"—reads as misleading to me. I guess "helped" could be doing a lot of heavy lifting here, but I would be…

    This is a cool setup, but naively it feels like it would require hundreds of thousands of hours of data to train a decent generalizable model that would be useful for consumers. Ar…

    A) You could have an additional field in the jsonl file which says which rubric to use; then, your reward function could access this via `kwargs["rubric"]` and return a reward base…

    Having an RL agent that's really good at search across some space sounds very powerful in general; "proofs-as-search" make this an appealing target. Back in the day, when I did mor…
