It'd be corporate suicide for them to be caught violating zero-data-retention commitments. But also if you're really paranoid you can just use ChatGPT on Azure or AWS, where nothing is flowing back to OpenAI at all.
Not long ago it'd have been corporate suicide being caught massively torrenting pirated media. Yet here we are.

Maybe. Maybe not. Look at AI drug design - it's not really speeding up the important part - drug trials. There isn't really a coherent plan to use AI for the most complex part of drug discovery at all.
I work in pharma and I've advocated for directly training models that predict drug trial outcomes. I don't think we have the necessary support (data + algorithms) to produce accurate models in this space. I suspect that predicting drug trial outcomes is roughly isomorphic to understanding human biology at a fundamental level (and accepting that our existing models of how drugs work are extremely limited).
So, it doesn't appear there is any way to avoid the clinical trial process. And it won't speed up, and it won't get cheaper.
Am I wrong?

How can you possible say this sort of thing in context of what looks like a millenium prize being solved. I swear there's nobody blinder than those who won't see.
People will cling to views as long as they possibly can, despite evidence slapping them in the face. Eventually it won't matter. Arguments over whether LLMs are "truly" intelligent are going to be a matter of philosophy, and look a little silly.

“Nuh uhh! Malankovich cycles and humans are a drop in the bucket! Krakatoa! See!”

“Haha, stupid shrill liberals! Go rake your woke forests! Drill baby drill!”
“Are you kidding?! Look at this graph.”
“That’s just propaganda from the elites of the Build-a-bear group!”
“Do we even live in the same universe?”
“And 5g causes COVID!”
“Oh, I guess we’re don’t.”

Why would Anthropic employee even use OpenAI's models? Cross-polination would have been avoided
They should have used a zero data retention agreement, user error

> Should I just say fuck it, and go hitchhiking across Europe with some friends? Yes. Assuming you are young and haven't had such experience. The world is changing not just because of AI. Everything is unstable right now. You may regret not enjoying the remainder of stability and economic viability prior generations had. It's not like you can expect to get ahead by powering through education. Either your career persp…
Have you people gone insane?

Just don't. If you read the story here carefully, you see that AI was used to work from theory built by others which showed that the Euler equations possesed finite-time blow-ups. But to make that step, actual good understanding for mathematics was needed. My experience with software has been the exact same.
I fear this is only temporary and due mostly to the complexity of the problem.

Is this truly the beginning of the AGI era? Running agents and prompting excessively to produce 'slopcode' to solve mathematical problems and generate a solution. If this is what anyone calls 'slop' then slop has no meaning. I'm all for it on the use case of solving mathematical breakthroughs!
No AGI here, it's just extreme brute forcing. AI doesn't understand fluids dynamics, it just slops it's way to the solution.

The things you don’t care about are highly relevant to that claim
Elaborate?

There was a recent rumor about the Hodge Conjecture. I'd keep an eye on that one. But like the other person who replied, I'm also rooting for Yang-Mills. That has massive potential for unlocking a series of physics results.
interesting, i haven't heard anything about that. i don't know much about the hodge conjecture, all i really know is that it's incredibly abstract and obtuse - not sure if that has any implication for solvability by an AI though. do you have any source for the hodge rumor? curious to learn more

We don't have any proof of that at all. Please stop rushing to judge without data.
> We don't have any proof of that It’s fair to give benefit of doubt to Buckmaster given OpenAI is currently being very credibly sued by Apple for openly stealing others’ original work in another context.
In short I think a lot of people are jumping to conclusions without supporting evidence and that's really not helping the situation.
