@RichardMCNgo The open endedness research (Why greatness cannot be planned) is a convincing argument that theory of impact is generally a bad thing

Richard Ngo@RichardMCNgo·
One reason I hate the idea of having a “theory of impact” for your research is that it limits you to research with predictable consequences. But that rules out research which aims to improve our understanding of foundational concepts, which is the most important kind!

META is about to make large scale layoffs to offset AI capex that could affect more than 20% of the company.

@brianryhuang @taifuunoyume In a sense, if I take your premise of no AGI, the value of a frontier lab would be data and having made model improvements some number of months before open source. And also distribution.

@brianryhuang @taifuunoyume I buy the premise that Opus 4.5 is ~transformational for SWE. Why does Anthropic necessarily have a moat that another company can't take? How long until there's an open-source version?

@MechanizeWork Why can't you have a sweet of open source RL envs like a "pretraining" corpus? and then also have specialized envs. It seems to me the benefits of open source software hold up for RL envs as well

So excited to join the new @SimonsFdn Simons Collaboration on the Physics of Learning and Neural Computation, to further advance our understanding (mech interp) of learning & reasoning in large networks, including classical deep nets and other bio-inspired network models!
Simons Foundation@SimonsFdn

Our new Simons Collaboration on the Physics of Learning and Neural Computation will employ and develop powerful tools from #physics, #math, computer science and theoretical #neuroscience to understand how large neural networks learn, compute, scale, reason and imagine: simonsfoundation.org/2025/08/18/sim…
