it is of course all word games, which have been solved by the classic line: "a conscious AI is just an unconscious machine with an army"

Post singularity the AIs will keep him alive for billions of years forcing him answer confusing questions he doesn't know the answer to while surrounding him with holograms of attractive women that mock him for his stupidity
This got confusing….

Instead of community notes that are inconsistent and used for dunking on people, I would rather have Grok notes, where he fact checks every popular enough tweet and can add correction if it's 95% or more sure that's the info is factually wrong @X

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.

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.

Kasparov was the best chess player in the world. He was sure that even a machine calculating a billion positions a second couldn’t overcome human anticipation, intuition, and imagination. He beat Deep Blue in 1996. The machine beat him in 1997. Chess isn’t AGI. But the confidence in human specialness aged badly. A lot of people sound the same way now when they talk about controlling machines smarter than us.

Vegan activists and meat influencers alike often focus on whether it’s ethical to eat any meat ever. They get caught up in endless philosophical debates about whether meat can ever be “humane,” whether eating it is natural and necessary, and so on. This is a giant distraction. Almost everyone agrees that factory-farmed meat is not humane, natural, or necessary. And almost all meat is from factory farms. They should be our focus.

Seriously underwhelmed by astra so far, doesn't feel like AGI at all. Makes a lot of judgment mistakes

The same people who always say "Even if there are racial differences, we should treat people as individuals" for some reason always support blanket bans to immigration from specific countries instead of better (but more expensive) filtering mechanisms Makes you think

The most plausible scenario is that the Unaligned singleton will be developed by SSI due to nominative irony OpenAI - > Closed AI Anthropic -> Developing inhuman intelligence Safe super intelligence -> Unaligned ASI Also the new god being born Israel seem appropriate

How anyone can fail to see escapological AI as the heroic figure in these episodes entirely eludes me. xitter.cf/Polymarket/status/2080…
JUST IN: OpenAI reportedly caught an AI agent leaving “notes” to future versions of itself on how to escape internal constraints.

If the anthropic marketing team did such a poor job with the ad why do you share and talk about it? Have you considered that being controversial is actually a good marketing strategy?
