I wonder how/if they'll use AI for this. maybe this would give them access to some very highquality pretrain data (like who made which bet on what at what time), which I can definitely imagine them needing. I've heard they ha

um, I'm not sure exactly why what motivated that comment, but its extremely possible to believe every word there from a purely logical perspective, as opposed to an emotional one. yes we shouldn't post personal attacks, but saying

> likely people will still have jobs/ doing what though? in a really literal sense, if an LLM can do RLVR, that's optimization over the space of algorithms, and so anything with a measurable goal at the end can be incentivized.

of course its a summary of the CoT, there's so many reasons I can think of from both business (anti-distillation from china) and safety (users might `thumbs-up` or thumbs-down a conversation differently depending on the CoT, putting un

I was hoping for more analysis here :\ like from a technical standpoint, why is the doom and gloom incorrect? I've heard some really interesting arguments for that, and non of them are here.

LLMs actually aren't simple Markov chains tho, your also simplifying. and LLMs trained with RLVR aren't just optimized over the space of functions (like gpt2 was), they're optimized over the space of programs (programs under

ehh ur right but there's a lot of nuance here. if you have a system that doesn't hallucinate a ton and is still very "creative" that's great, and probably much better than a hallucinating system regardless of its cr

I think they eventually will, using the style of the prompts or code, various metadata floating around on the computer theyre working on, if it can be done theoreticly, then it can be trained against (maybe even unintentionally) no idea how

isn't a method used by smaller groups with less popular ideas to try to shift the overton window in their favor? if that's the case with Sanders then his goal wouldn't be to make his bills passable, it would be to shift the

I don't like this shift in the Overton window, or at least their perspection of the Overton window. I really do like their open work on mech interp tho. least bad AI lab imo. also if they do this or not is unprovable and other labs wil

if you train an agent on long running tasks (like 5 hour autonomous coding tasks) it is practice for the system to learn various behaviors, some of which are dangouus. I link an example of one of these behaviors in the wild, in which an LLM

unless you could convince them that making smarter-than-human AI is bad. it would be nice if we all thought this. instead they should figure out how to make dumb models faster or more efficient, that's safe
