Are there any up-to-date offline/private agentic coding benchmark leaderboards? If the tests haven't been published anywhere and are sufficiently different from standard problems, I would think the benchmarks would be robust to in

That will definitely be a problem, but I suspect and hope that there will be governing AI models that can be "prompted" with clear and concise instructions that will be demonstrably free of bias towards any group, either by a dire

Because unlike natural life, which has evolved to be highly competitive and self-interested, we would explicitly set the AI's objectives to always benefit society.

That's why I see AI (with a clear set of provided objectives and guidelines, i.e., a constitution) as the future of government. As dystopian as that sounds, it's the only way I see to truly rid ourselves of corruption.

Heavy trucks aren't required for the vast majority of residential deliveries. If you order anything in Bangkok, even say a refrigerator or a king size mattress, it will almost always be delivered by a modestly sized pickup truck (with

The critical point is who the "we" is. Is "we" the parents teaching their children their own unique values, or is the "we" a government or corporation forcing one set of values on all children. Why not encourag

Grok has been and still is the best at incorporating search. 4.20 with its 4 agents puts it back at the top for reasoning as well. As soon as it's added to the API, the benchmarks should show that.

The security of Android doesn't mean much to me as long as the front door is left open by design for Google, and therefore the government, to directly spy on you.

I have as well. But for it to really work, don't you need to hand over the monopoly on violence directly to AI? Any human discretion would be abused by elites, so AI would be in full control. And once it's given control, there&#

It's not currently, but if we were able to use AI to generate laws in an objective and logically sound way based on general principles like "don't harm others or their property", we'd be much better off.

Silly logical mistakes like that are rapidly decreasing in frequency as models improve, and I see no reason why they won't soon be a thing of the past. For example, I haven't seen Grok make a mistake like that in a long time, and

But does a battery fire on a plane pose a much more significant risk than anywhere else one carries a battery in his daily life? At least on a plane, you have well-trained staff and fire extinguishers readily available.

You're already allowed to refill large water bottles from a water fountain after passing through security, so the situation you described is already allowed to happen.
