Nice one

Yeah, it's a good point. The examples (jobs, loans, videos, ads) we give are more examples of how machine learning systems make choices that affect you, rather than how LLMs/genera…

I'm curious what sense you get from interacting with the best AI models (in particular Claude). From talking to them do you still chalk up their behavior to being mindless rehashin…

Yeah this is one of my favorite ones :)

There's more to the prompt in the back end, which: - gives it the options along with the letters A, B, C, etc. - tells it pretty forcefully that it HAS to pick from among the optio…

Yeah, this is pretty odd. I’ve even seen gemini 2.5 pro think its an Anthropic model which I was surprised by

Yeah would also be interested to see the responses without RLHF. Not quite the same, but have you interacted with AI base models at all? They're pretty fascinating. You can talk to…

Yeah I wouldn't read too much into their response on the AI bubble question. They don't have access to any search tools or recent events so all they know is up until their knowledg…

Thanks so much! I appreciate the kind words.
