You make it sound that there are only two sides in this story. Spain, Argentina, Kenya, Indonesia, Kuwait and countless other countries haven't bombed any civilian infrastructure either and yet they will be affected by the aggressive p

The spec can be wrong for many reasons: 1. You can write a spec that builds something that is not what you actually wanted 2. You can write spec that is incoherent with itself or with the external world 3. You can write a spec that doesn&#x

Yes, unless people had some incentives to show an increase in the trucking capacity in order to meet some metrics and get more funding etc. (not saying that's what's happening, but just as a counterpoint to your logic)

yeah it actually works to use claude to reverse engineer itself; I've used that to workaround some problems. E.g. that's how I discovered that I had to put two slashes for absolute paths in sandbox config. The thing is, the claude

1. Yes this configuration applies to the sandbox where the commands executed by Claude are run and as such it applies to anything these commands do, including child processes etc 2. The sandbox rules also apply to the program written by the

The sandbox only limits what processes spawned by Claude can do. Claude itself can read from any directory you tell it to read from (i.e. that's a different permission mechanism)

Well, that's why it's a good idea to have a place to try things out, so we can learn. But of course, doing that is highly impractical for many other reasons.

The only advantage of terraforming Mars is that if you do it wrong you're not making it worse for anybody that lives there. It could be a good test bench if it wasn't for the elephant in the room: it takes a very long time to terr

That's unsurprising given that a lot of our own abilities as humans come from having painstakingly acquired practices and methodologies and tools (like pencil and paper, note taking, let alone algebra, formal methods and electromechani

The harness would be fine if the agent coded its own harness in a controlled environment while observing the game. Not sure if the specific rules of this prize allow that, but I would accept that

I guess it depends on how you parse "the future of X". To me it sounds like "This is how I imagine the future of X", i.e. a preview of a possible future.
