Logic Lab AI 🧪
@LogicLabAI
AI is the most important tech of our lifetime. Too many people are lost. I run the lab that explains it simply.



There are lots of projects that could really help the transition to superintelligence go much better, which almost nobody is working on. With @finmoorhouse, I’ve written up eight ideas that seem especially promising. Some are about shaping AI systems themselves: independently evaluating AI character traits, benchmarking AI for strategic and philosophical reasoning, auditing models for sabotage and backdoors, and brokering deals with AIs to disclose early forms of misalignment. Others are about building tools on top of AI. There’s so much low-hanging fruit in tools that improve collective epistemics (e.g. reliability tracking for public figures) and enable coordination (e.g. monitoring and verification tools). We also sketch out a CSET-style think tank focused on the governance of outer space. And we propose a coalition of concerned ML researchers who commit to coordinated action if AI companies cross clear red lines. This isn’t a final list by any means, and I'd love to hear about other very concrete projects for handling the intelligence explosion. There’s so much to do! Link in reply.






Today, we're opening early access to SciClaw. 🎉 Here's the honest reason we built it: Modern research isn't broken because of a lack of intelligence. It's broken at the workflow level. Tools don't talk to each other. Tasks get repeated instead of accumulated. Knowledge disappears when people leave. And bridging simulation to real experiments still takes massive manual effort. Most AI tools speed up one step: - better search - better writing - faster code But research isn't a step. It's a system. SciClaw is built for that system. It's an AI co-worker that lives inside your project and keeps things moving - continuously. - captures what you learn - runs recurring work in the background - turns raw outputs into polished deliverables - launches long-running computations - connects all the way to real-world experiments



My theory about why so many on the left remain in denial about AI is that their worldview rests on a load-bearing notion of “the tech industry” as being composed of vapid morons whose accomplishments will always be superficial, never “real,” always based on some grand theft. With social media and search, the theft was manipulation of people’s minds. With Amazon it was worker exploitation. With Apple, it was a mix of these. In the left retelling of the story, no value whatsoever was created from these technologies. All a trick. With AI the “grand theft” in the telling of the left is the use of copyright-protected data in pre-training. This one is a particularly dangerous mindworm for them, since they identify with the “artists and writers” from whom they imagine this training data was “stolen.” This is why things like “mode collapse” from synthetic data, stochastic parrotry, “it can only mimic things it has seen on the web” and similar are so core to the argument for the left: it supports the notion of “tech bro” thieves—who lest we forget, and they never will let us, have no “liberal arts” training!—continuing their unbroken string of robberies. Of course the “grand theft” notion is an old motif on the left, relating as it does to a zero-sum mindset about economics, business, and growth that is. more traditionally associated with the left, though the lines have always been blurry, since the zero-sum mindset is above all else a *human* fallacy and thus a useful tactic in mass politics of all valences. The lines have become especially blurry lately, as has been widely observed. Anyway, the notion that AI *is* a genuinely world-changing technology, that it can “go beyond” its “stolen” training data, breaks this load-bearing conception of the tech industry as vapid and superficial and, more importantly, of the people within it as blood-sucking thieves.

Most of today’s “artificial intelligence” is better described as artificial autocomplete than artificial mind, writes @pllevin. quillette.com/2026/03/27/ai-…













Today we're announcing the Vibecode CLI Your OpenClaw (or any agent) can build and deploy up to 20 apps in parallel in a single prompt. Your agent will communicate with Vibecode to build your app(s). Frontend, Backend, Database, Deployments, APIs. Works with OpenClaw, Claude Code, Perplexity Computer, Manus, and any agent with access to a terminal. Just add this to your prompt: "Please use vibecode . dev CLI to build these apps"
