We're releasing HLE-Diamond: a refined version of Humanity's Last Exam, built with @CAIS.
A year of review and community feedback went into refining this subset to make it more reliable for measuring frontier models.
Top model tested 60.6% overall. We expect HLE-Diamond to carry signal for the next 6-12 months.

there is one (1) major firm that’s friendly with the gov + F500 and has done embedded eval consulting for years and has a real track record of ai safety expertise but is now largely divested from commercial conflicts with the leading labs
why is nobody talking about scale ai

we're building a world class design team at @modal
here in new york to build the future of ai infrastructure.
we're looking for a sr/staff brand designer to join our team: folks who want to build new systems and tools, and rethink how brands are made from the ground up.
DMs open, listing in the thread.
I'm really proud of this work from the team. Massive thanks to Travis Britton for leading the identity redesign with contributions from @nocellcoverage, @lin_zagorski, @SnakeFooc, and @rickyrauch.
@active_theory was an amazing partner on the scale.com refresh. They nailed the strategy and execution on a very tight timeline.
More to come!

The work of AI R&D has always belonged to humans. For the first time, though, it no longer seems certain that it always will.
Recursive self-improvement is within a line of sight. It may still be far, but it is close enough that we should start measuring it.

Welcome @fdesouza to @scale_AI as CEO!
I started Scale a decade ago at 19, and it has grown to be the backbone of the AI world, powering frontier labs, Fortune 500 companies, and the US Government.
Francis is an exceptional leader and the right steward. After spending a lot of time together, I have no doubts he’ll take Scale to greater heights.
Thank you @jdroege for your leadership as interim CEO 🙏
Big News: I’m joining @scale_AI as CEO, starting August 10. Scale sits at a rare intersection, working with the top AI labs to push the frontier while helping enterprises and governments actually deploy AI they can verify and trust. I’m excited to lead a company with a mission to develop reliable AI systems for the most important decisions. More to come.
Every researcher in the world has to press a red or blue button. If more than 50% press the blue button, all frontier models go through mandatory safety testing. If less than 50% press blue, only models from researchers who pressed red are tested. Which button would you press? – at Hoboken, NJ

This is where I think the market has @scale_AI wrong. People still see us as a "data company". We are so much more!
We're the eval and reward layer behind most of the frontier labs. We're the ones who work out what "good" even means for a model. That's exactly what enterprises need now, except it has to run inside their own walls!

My first vibe coded project is live: brand.scale.com/
I always wanted to build a brand guide with some quality-of-life features that were accessible to partners/vendors/rank and file at the company.
Hopefully this leads to fewer DMs asking where the logo files are. 😅
