New paper: “A Theory of Appropriateness That Accounts for Norms of Rationality” Agent-based models of social order work better when agents act by predictive pattern completion from prefix (culture/context) to suffix (action) than when they act through expected value maximization

After YEARS of waiting and uncertainty, green cards for my family are approved, and we moved to Silicon Valley from Japan last week. I've been in the Bay since 2012 on/off but this is the most exciting time to be here. Excited to join my great colleagues and make ASI🔥

Introducing Concordia 2.0, an update to our library for building multi-actor LLM simulations!! 🚀 We view multi-actor generative AI as a game engine. The new version is built on a flexible Entity-Component architecture, inspired by modern game development.

How should we rank generalist agents on a wide set of benchmarks and tasks? Honored to get the AAMAS best paper award for SCO, a scheme based on voting theory which minimizes the mistakes in predicting agent comparisons based on the evaluation data. arxiv.org/abs/2411.00119

It may be time to develop AI programming languages. Code generation must be optimized for guiding models in exploring solution space and ensuring correctness, not for human comprehension. Code specification must optimize synchronization between human intention and AI

Instead, we'll need the AIs to do just what we humans do: manage disagreement rather than eliminate it. As the authors write, "This is not relativism; it’s pragmatism in the face of value pluralism." Great work @jzl86 @WilCunningham @sebkrier @linuxpotter & more /3

Okay, my favorite AI paper of the year so far has arrived. In this new gem, researchers point out something I think should be obvious but seems not to be for many people working on AI safety: There is no One True Answer when it comes to morality! arxiv.org/abs/2505.05197

Rejected by the seminary, thrown out of the Ph.D. program, and canceled but more determined than ever before. Built the fastest solver for finite intersection non-emptiness and have the benchmarks to prove it. Would not trade that for all the honors in the world. Soli Deo gloria.

Announcing our latest arxiv paper: Societal and technological progress as sewing an ever-growing, ever-changing, patchy, and polychrome quilt arxiv.org/abs/2505.05197 We argue for a view of AI safety centered on preventing disagreement from spiraling into conflict.

You should be so lucky to have people throughout your research career that you can openly bounce ideas to and from - especially if they complement your strengths in your areas of weakness - it is a rare and precious gift.

We should let people design minds and personalities appropriate to their needs, just like it's good to let social media users have more control over their feeds. Polycentric design/governance is more durable than rigid "How Do You Do Fellow Kids" personalities imposed by LLCs. 😏
