It is indeed possible to make super-human intelligences that care for humans like family. It's not at all the default trajectory of things, but it is both possible and not that hard to exemplify conceptually.

New post, intended as a resource for people who believe they've made an LLM-assisted scientific breakthrough, and something to share when people approach you with such a claim.
We can now say pretty definitively that AI progress is well ahead of expectations from a few years ago. In 2022, the Forecasting Research Institute had super forecasters & experts to predict AI progress. They gave a 2.3% & 8.6% probability of an AI Math Olympiad gold by 2025…
May I please remind all inference kernel engineers that floating-point arithmetic is not associative or distributive

Five years ago the frontier of LLM math/science capabilities was 3 digit multiplication for GPT-3. Now, frontier LLM math/science capabilities are evaluated through condensed matter physics questions. Anyone who thinks AI is slowing down is fatally miscalibrated.
if you struggle to do a 15-minute meditation because you’re addicted to scrolling on your iPhone, try counting the total number of full days in the alarm app’s hour picker! (this isn’t a joke)

At 🇬🇧ARIA, we’re serious about catalysing a new paradigm for AI deployment—techniques to safely *contain* powerful AI (instead of “making it safe”), especially for improving the performance and resilience of critical infrastructure. This needs a new org. Want to be its founder?

@davidad Some of these agents use a lot of tokens, but there’s ways of using coding AI that are lightning fast — like about 1 second to write code that would take a human about a working day,
I can't* fathom why the top picture, and not the bottom picture, is the standard diagram for an autoencoder. The whole idea of an autoencoder is that you complete a round trip and seek cycle consistency—why lay out the network linearly?
@agmethod75 Do you write interactive software? A click or type happens and then you want to see an immediate response? Great, you have real-time requirements.
💡 Did You Know? The term “neural network” is a shortening of “artificial neural network”, so called because the structures were originally inspired by the complex networks of brain cells (also known as ‘neurons’) long thought by scientists to be the substrate of human cognition.

We’re hiring a Research Engineer/Scientist at Anthropic to work with me on all things model welfare—research, evaluations, and interventions 🌀 Please apply + refer your friends! If you’re curious about what this means, I recently went on the 80k podcast to talk about our work.
