Dario is right
We Must Pace the Frontier: I’ve written a new essay on why the AI industry should slow down, with a three-part plan for doing so. Anthropic is unilaterally committing to the first of these steps. We’ll provide third-party evaluators with permanent, employee-level access to our systems, so that they can verify adherence to our safety measures, report on incidents, and assess models’ alignment during training.

I agree with Dario that we need to pace the frontier. This has been a primary topic of discussions we've had at OpenAI in recent weeks. Committing to having independent evaluators with employee-like access is a great idea, and we will do the same. We'll have more to share soon.

An INCREDIBLE 🤯 demonstration of ‘Project Primrose’ at #AdobeMAX, a dress that CHANGES with the push of a button. Some incredible innovation at @Adobe being demonstrated in LA this evening at MAX Sneaks…

Putin puts his nuclear deterrent forces on high alert. This is the kind of moment we’ve feared almost my entire life. And why is he doing it? Because his wholly unnecessary invasion of Ukraine doesn’t seem to be going to plan.

Inside the @BBCBreakfast gallery as @louiseminchin revealed she will be leaving later this year. I’ll miss her journalism, advice, laughter & energy. I’ve been lucky to be ‘boss’ for 18 months but luckier to know her Lou many more years. One big leaving do planned (hopefully) 🥳

I had the pleasure of carrying the giant #BBCBreakfast deckchair down to the beach today. It took three of us! 💪🏻Sorry for the sound trouble. I carried on talking for a good minute… Rambling on to myself on Blackpool beach! 🏝 – at Clayton-le-Woods, England
Does this mean it's officially SUMMER? ☀️ The #BBCBreakfast deckchair is in Blackpool as they consider bringing them back to the beach🏖 bbc.in/3ggUVAC
