I think it would be an alright (potentially good) outcome if in the short-term we don't see major progress towards AGI. There are a lot of positive things we can do with current model abilities, especially as we make them cheaper, but

I'm curious why there are no results for the "Claude 3.7 Extended Thinking" on SWE-Bench and Agentic tool use. Are you finding that extended thinking helps a lot when the whole problem can be posed in the prompt, but that it

As a sibling comment implies though, there's also danger from it being stupid while unsupervised. For example, I'd be very nervous having it do something autonomously in my kitchen for fear of it burning down my house by accident.

This is a pretty big range. Are you saying the overall multiplier for all of your work is somewhere between 2 and 10x, or that some tasks are 2x and others are 10x?

Tech workers got fired so FBI/IRS workers should also get fired? What is the logic here? As far as I'm aware the FBI/IRS have nothing whatsoever to do with the tech job market, let alone individual employees. As far as public

It seems like there was a dip in mid-May and that it didn't go back up until mid/late-August? That corresponds pretty closely to US summer breaks. Also a huge spike in early December followed up a huge drop, final exams and then w

I agree with this. An AI that can fully handle web dev is clearly AGI. Maybe the first AGI can't fully handle OS kernel development, just as many humans can't. But if/once AGI is achieved it seems highly unlikely to me that

Likewise, under no circumstances would I trade C for LLM-aided assembly programming. That sounds hellish. Of course it could (probably will?) be the case that this may change at some point. Innovations in higher-level languages aren't

Some codebases grown with AI assistance must be getting pretty large now, I think an interesting metric to track would be percent of code that is AI generated over time. Still isn't a perfect proxy for how much work the AI is replacing

Yeah that certainly seems hyperbolic. My opinion is that we need to do better in the future and consider our past when making current policy decisions. And in some cases I think we should proactively attempt to make amends.

Tbh it seems entirely plausible to me that a messenger being unable to deliver an important message could have an outsized effect on that outcome of a battle. What if they're letting their side know about a surprise attack?

Colonial-esque behavior by the US was (is?) hardly limited to plantation slavery in the US south. For much of the late 1800s and most of the 1900s the US government was more than happy to intervene in the domestic affairs of other countries
