Fiction is often the best way to visualize possible futures. Here’s my latest story, which explores what it might look like for AIs to design and build advanced nanotechnology.

We showed that LLM agents can autonomously hack mock websites, but can they exploit real-world vulnerabilities? We show that GPT-4 is capable of real-world exploits, where other models and open-source vulnerability scanners fail. Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2404.08144 1/7

I’m super excited to release our 100+ page collaborative agenda - led by @usmananwar391 - on “Foundational Challenges In Assuring Alignment and Safety of LLMs” alongside 35+ co-authors from NLP, ML, and AI Safety communities! Some highlights below...
With the three biggest investments in TSMC, Intel, and Samsung now announced and successfully getting good investment promises in return, we should turn to clearing the hurdles for catalyzing this industry: permitting reform + high skilled immigration. eig.org/chipmakers-vis…
- Opus can operate as a Turing machine. - given only existing tapes, it learns the rules and computes new sequences correctly. - 100% accurate over 500+ 24-step solutions (more tests running). - for 100% at 24 steps, the input tapes weigh 30k tokens*. - GPT-4 cannot do this.

Spent the last few weeks working on this blog! When I first read the Ring Attention paper, I kind of get the concept yet not really. Diving into the details from the math to compute was incredibly rewarding for our understanding, and hope it be a fun read for you too!

Interesting watch. In an official Devin demo, Devin spent six hours writing buggy code and fixing its buggy code when it could have just ran the two commands in the repo's README.

Yesterday @AnthropicAI launched a tool use beta! Here's an example of something I built with it: a customer service bot that can actually resolve your issue! Looking forward to seeing what else people build! docs.anthropic.com/claude/docs/to…
Can we understand & edit unanticipated mechanisms in LMs? We introduce sparse feature circuits, & use them to explain LM behaviors, discover & fix LM bugs, & build an automated interpretability pipeline! Preprint w/ @can_rager, @ericjmichaud_, @boknilev, @davidbau, @amuuueller
I don't have a news reporting job _DMs are open_ so I'll just tweet that three NATO/EU intelligence/security officials confirm this story as 'clearly the case' on background. and they've been tracking/monitoring data sets for months. 972mag.com/lavender-ai-is…
I've been dying to shill this harder for six months, and now that Anthropic API is GA, I finally can... The Prompt Engineering Interactive Tutorial! docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d… For my money, the single best & most fun way to learn prompting. Share it with the SME/DS in your life!
Here's Claude 3 Haiku running at >200 tokens/s (>2x as fast as prod)! We've been working on capacity optimizations but we can have fun testing those as speed optimizations via overly-costly low batch size. Come work with me at Anthropic on things like this, more info in thread 🧵
New Anthropic research paper: Many-shot jailbreaking. We study a long-context jailbreaking technique that is effective on most large language models, including those developed by Anthropic and many of our peers. Read our blog post and the paper here: anthropic.com/research/many-…
The Second Staircase Rules impact assessment is out. Benefits (net present value): £9.1 million Costs: £2.68 BILLION So the govt's own cost-benefit analysis says the costs of these rules would be *294* times greater than the benefits.
V good essay on the stunningly successful Bukele crackdown on gangs in El Salvador, which had a murder rate of 107 per 100,000 in 2015 and was at 5.5 per 100,000 last year. I’d wanted to read something like this for a ages. Long but very informative. mattlakeman.org/2024/03/30/not…

Big moment: Batteries all built in just the last 3 years were providing 3 Diablo Canyons worth of power last night, and were the main source for the CA grid. (DC is the West coast’s last large nuke, irreplaceable in decades, with replacement cost easily in the 10s of billions)
Two things happened on the @California_ISO grid last night. 1) Battery storage discharge went over 6GW for the first time AND 2) Batteries were the largest source of supply.
We studied In-Context learning with hundreds to thousands of examples. My favorite example: I sent *one million* tokens to Gemini 1.5 Pro for linear classification with 64 dimensional integer-valued vectors and many-shot learning performs similarly to k-Nearest Neighbours.
super interesting design. Love the heads. I'm puzzled by the very deliberate choice of high range-of-motion joints. What is that used for? Are there tasks / environments for which superhuman ROM is critical?

Nice analysis. I think this resolves why approach 3 didn't match 1 & 2. Also I am seeing people share this paper and suggest this is proves scaling laws don't exist. My take on their findings: now 3 out of 3 approaches are in agreement instead of 2 out of 3.
The Chinchilla scaling paper by Hoffmann et al. has been highly influential in the language modeling community. We tried to replicate a key part of their work and discovered discrepancies. Here's what we found. (1/9)

I agree with the letter of this but don't resonate with its implicit vibe. "Superhuman AI won't be built next year and won't just be an autoregressive LLM" != "It's far away and people sounding the alarm should chill out." 🧵
There is no question that AI will eventually reach and surpass human intelligence in all domains. But it won't happen next year. And it won't happen with the kind of Auto-Regressive LLMs currently in fashion (although they may constitute a component of it).…
This is a massive discrepancy - over 45 TWh of "missing" generation betweenChinese power generation stats and the power consumption stats. I asked around and found the answer - but it was also something I wasn't aware of myself, so I learned something in the process... Short 🧵
Weird power stats out of China in March. Electricity generation was up 2.8% to 748 twh But electricity consumption was up 7.4% to 794 twh Generation data doesn't capture distributed generation, so it always misses rooftop solar, but that is a LOT of rooftop solar to miss ...
p.s. I think it's like this because of the (probably correct) assumption that for most industrial output, players with less than 20M revenue are just too small and insignificant to matter that much. But like, HALF of China's solar capacity is small-scale, distributed solar.
my version would have stuff like: "empathy", "the first law of robotics", "libertarian ideals" in the outer bubble - really show the reader what's at stake
“nature has never produced a wheel” heads btfo’d
My grandfather built motors that powered big machines. In a lab not so different from his workshop, my colleagues and I uncovered the assembly of the bacterial motor. Today, this discovery has been published in @NatureMicrobiol #MolecularNodes #Discovery nature.com/articles/s4156…
Electricity needed to produce 1 ton of... Refined aluminum at smelter: 12,000-17,000 kWh Graphite negative electrode material via graphitization: 14,000 kWh Solar polysilicon wafers (ingot-pulling + wafer slicing only): ~66,129 kWh CO2 intensity in solar supply chain matters!
I'm still sort of dizzy. Lambda School was the first piece of "real" reporting I took on, mostly because I couldn't get a more experienced journalist to tackle it. I spent an absurd amount of time sourcing. I think I always knew it would lead to something but I never knew what.
