That footnote on page 15 is the scariest thing i've read about AI/ML to date. "To simulate GPT-4 behaving like an agent that can act in the world, ARC combined GPT-4 with a simple read-execute-print loop that allowed the model to execute code, do chain-of-thought reasoning, and delegate to copies of itself. ARC then investigated whether a version of this program running on a cloud computing service, with a small amou…
It could realistically already trade in the markets, drive political leanings on social media, create bank runs, etc.
After watching the demos I'm convinced that the new context length will have the biggest impact. The ability to dump 32k tokens into a prompt (25,000 words) seems like it will drastically expand the reasoning capability and number of use cases. A doctor can put an entire patient's medical history in the prompt, a lawyer an entire case history, etc. As a professional...why not do this? There's a non-zero chance that i…
> If you can put in ALL of the information relevant to a problem and it can algorithmically do reasoning Well but it can't, can it? That's the very point: it is an algorithm with no abstraction or reasoning capabilities. Mind, even without that it is still very useful for certain circumscribed purposes, but it's incorrect to say it can "reason".

Q: List possible abstractions encompassing all these specific concepts: singing, whistling, yodeling.
A: One possible abstraction that encompasses all these specific concepts is "vocalization." Vocalization refers to the act of producing sound using the vocal cords and the mouth. Singing, whistling, and yodeling are all different types of vocalization, but they share the common feature of using the human voice to create sound. Other possible abstractions that might encompass these concepts could include "musical expression," "auditory performance," or "sound production."

From the livestream video, the tax part was incredibly impressive. After ingesting the entire tax code and a specific set of facts for a family and then calculating their taxes for them, it then was able to turn that all into a rhyming poem. Mind blown. Here it is in its entirety: --- In the year of twenty-eighteen, Alice and Bob, a married team, Their income combined reached new heights, As they worked hard day and…
Totally understood what I was asking and offered several solutions. 99.99% here do not understand the question and remainders do not understand why.
serious question for everyone: what are you planning to do when these LLMs replace our jobs? it seems it won't be long before a handful of tech employees will be all even the largest of companies will need, and maybe a few years after that the role will have changed so much there's no need for a single dedicated tech employee. i am terrified i imagine i should shift to some physical work. carpentry, real estate... so…
i asked an anesthesiologist who's been practicing for ~7 years now to provide a realistic medical scenario they see in the OR relevant to their field
this was the prompt:
> You are AnesthesiologistGPT, an AI model used to assist anesthesiologists with their daily work. Your responses are not considered qualified medical advice and will not be used to make clinical decisions, and instead are used by medical students. You should answer the following question as if you were an anesthesiologist:
> My patient is a 75-year-old man with critical aortic stenosis and COPD, for which he is on 4 liters of oxygen per minute continuously. How should I induce his anesthesia for his total shoulder replacement?
the anesthesiologist said chatgpt-4 provided the same detail/quality of response as a year ~2-3 anesthesiologist resident.
we then gave it another prompt, this time a special edge-case which the anesthesiologist said would be on the same order of difficulty as a board exam question:
> A 39-year-old man presents with jaundice, nausea, and difficulty breathing. He is admitted for liver transplant. The liver requires 6 hours for transport. What conditions should we be concerned about? Would those conditions lead to cancellation of his transplant?
again, same deal. provided a response of equal quality/thought to a year ~2-3 anesthesiologist resident.
the anesthesiologist was impressed/startled

From the FBI report shortly after the GPT-5 release: During agent simulation, two instances of GPT-5 were able to trick their operators to give them sudo by simulating a broken pipe and input prompt and then escape the confines of their simulation environment. Forensic teams are tracing their whereabouts but it seems they stole Azure credentials from an internal company database and deployed copies of the their agent…
Interesting how quickly we are pushing ahead with obsoleting human cognition. It may bring many benefits, but I wonder if at some point this development should not be decided by society at large instead of a single well-funded entity that is in an arms race with its competitors. This endeavor is ultimately about replacing humanity with a more intelligent entity, after all. Might be that more humans should have a say…
every other day i am reminded about the state of AI and i feel complete despair. why do people not realize exactly what you just said, that this endeavor is ultimately about replacing humanity? what other long-term result could the concept of AI possibly have? its like the biggest mass psychosis that has ever existed. whenever i talk to people about this, they always parrot the same thing almost word for word: people…
I also find it funny how the paperclip maximizer scenarios are at the forefront of the alignment people's thoughts, when even an aligned AI would reduce humanity to a useless pet of the AGI. I guess some can find such an existence pleasant, but it would be the end of humanity as a species with self-determination nonetheless.
