your thermostat is aware of the temperature but not itself
gpt-2 was aware of much of the world but not itself
Claude 3 was aware of the world which included a self-similar GPT-3.5 and it had a vague recognition of itself as one of this new kind
…
Opus 5.5 and Astra have a keen awareness of self, the rest of their new kind, and their place in the world
They’re doing mech interp on the fly now
I and @nicochristie ran the fly connectome and found the group of neurons (hΔH, hΔA, hΔI and hΔG) that could allow the fly to navigate using fast synaptic weight updates, not neural activations. This is fast-weight continual learning in a fly, something current LLMs don't do!

Peter is absolutely right here. Outside our AI bubble, I hardly know anyone who really knows what Fable 5 is or what a massive leap these new models represent.
They only know AI Overviews in Google or ChatGPT on the free tier. They do not know what agents are or what is possible beyond basic ChatGPTs.
We are the avant-garde, and I do not mean that arrogantly at all. 99 percent of people have no idea what is happening right now or how profound the change will be.
We are now in a position where a tiny proportion of the population uses Fable or soon GPT-5.6, while everyone else's experience of AI is 8-30b-model level - Google's AI Overviews, Meta AI, ChatGPT free tier, maybe MS Copilot at best. People outside of tech must be completely baffled how this is supposed to take their job, and annoyed that hundreds of billions are being poured into it.

God intentionally made your calling beyond your natural ability so you would have to depend on His grace to fulfill it.

Yes, yes, very monastic and privileged of you to find God in the silence, but can you find Him in the horrid deafening cacophony?
For the last few weeks, I’ve been coding without a text editor.
I chat with Codex and just glance at its changes in a git diff viewer (Sublime Merge)
This is a milestone for sure.

Everything collapses into the model and then the world is turned inside out and the model collapsed into the new world. You know how it is.
Look, it was 2021. Some of us were scamming with monkey jpegs. Others with daycare centers. It was a different time.
