    I read it as "was posted earlier this year. It claimed that compute has been doubling every seven months for quite some time, on average"

    What do you mean by "folded during wartime"? When did wartime start, and who folded?

    They claim it has a very low false-positive rate, which is meaningfully more nuanced than "accuracy". "Detect AI-generated content with 99.98% accuracy." -pangram themselves

    In my view, you're the one claiming to be able to tell the difference! You said, "You tend to see that more..." ...which I took to mean that there were threads where you can look a…

    Palisade Research demonstrated this capability, including fully copying model weights, on May 7th, 2026 https://palisaderesearch.org/blog/self-replication https://arxiv.org/abs/260…

    Do you?? Show me an HN thread where half the comments are paid for

    That strikes me as a really poorly calibrated expectation. Who benefits? Who's paying? How could I get this job?

    Show me a graph of your javelin skill doubling every six months and I'll start asking myself if you'll be the next champion

    But how do you explain the fact that, before it got bad, it wasn't /already/ bad. You've gotta have some model for why there was a change if the rate wasn't previously at 100% and …

    It didn't used to be regulated. How do you explain the fact that not everyone used to be an opiate addict?

    Yeah, when I'm writing code I try to avoid zeros and ones, since those are the most common bits, making them essentially noise

    Do you? What's the technical detail here? Why can't you get the model's prediction, even for that first token?

    OpenAI wants to not be responsible for "accidents" that kill more than 100 people, despite some critics arguing that their current actions are likely to cause such harms.

    Why isn't the AI story believable? It seems to me that AI is getting more and more productive

    The usual thing is that the market ends up around $0.95 for things like that, if the actors are all solid investors. It only takes one overly enthusiastic yes buyer to break that c…
