Surely the two leading candidates must be (a) the model is just not that good, or (b) it is misaligned in a pretty obvious way that can't be swept under the rug.

They already quietly agreed to "all lawful use" with the Pentagon, to no real fanfare. Gemini Slaughterbot Edition, coming soon to a DHS facility near you?

I don't think so. I've used Claude to generate 3D animations in python purely by making and manipulating raw meshes, and I've had great results. A more likely explanation is that 3…

Why not? Slowing down / halting biological weapons research mostly worked. Yes there have probably been modest sized defections here and there, but the pace of bioweapon developmen…

Indeed, I suspect the failure rate of, say, new jet engine designs is rather high as well -- those failures just never get reported in a federal repository, unlike RCTs, since they…

I'm actually surprised it isn't going up over time. That is naively what you would expect as the low-hanging fruit is plucked. So the fact that it's been stable is probably a sign …

This is missing the most important thing which is why HRs are so damn useful . It's because (a) survival analysis is very statistically powerful, but (b) many survival curves do no…

I think the "secret sauce" is not juicing the benchmarks. Claude models just feel like they are better than the benchmarks suggest, in terms of smarts and creativity, while models …

Cash for Clunkers was not mandatory

Also this argument is easily refuted by the US Postal Service, which physically delivers individual pieces of paper in a few days, for pennies.

I was actually waiting for it to pull out a butcher knife and reveal the landing page is actually a promo for a techno-horror film.

Real answer: how many animals can you think of with three legs?

I have a startup idea: I will make the robot that ferries your laundry robot up and down the stairs.

3.5 days to escape the permanent underclass ;_;

I'll take the opposite side of that bet. My prediction is that Fable 5 Re-Release will have safety classifiers that flag much more often on mundane front-end and back-end coding ta…

I sense a business opportunity: a web app that de-sloppifies real estate, airbnb, and vrbo photos! See what it really looks like, thanks to the power of AI!

The craziest part is that a game theory expert can't see the problem here!

Yes, you really need "dollars per amount of RAM you need for standard computing tasks." Windows 11 requires a bare minimum of 4 GB of RAM, Window 10 only needed 1 GB.

"The real problem with this package is that it makes things easy, instead of hard"
