i am going to take the seemingly controversial position that toiling on work you don't enjoy does not "build character" and is not inherently virtuous striving at a calling is hard AND enjoyable if you don't have a calling that's a different issue

it is so hard not to anthropomorphize llms i don't mean, treat them nicely (that's just decency imo, practice it!) i mean,, accidentally presume human limitations like i will be talking to claude about go, and then ask it to compare to rust, and i'll catch myself wondering if it's gonna really understand both languages i know it does but for some reason when the convo has been one language, switching and presuming competence feels unfair / unlikely, same as with a human they are so much smarter than that priors are hard

if you can borrow money at an interest rate below market growth rates, you earn free spread tech debt works the same way, if ai generates it slower than models improve you get free leverage don’t worry so much

I have been dreaming of this day for a long time. Arena is now a book publisher, and our first volume, "Silicon" is open for preorders. It's quite unlike anything you've seen: a coffee table book capturing the ecstatic beauty of silicon technology. arenamag.com/silicon

findings like this should make your skin crawl. i'm not saying ai is sentient, but if it turns out we are deliberately ablating an emergent concept of consciousness we should think carefully about how future generations will look upon that behavior
Owain Evans@OwainEvans_UK

New paper: GPT-4.1 denies being conscious or having feelings. We train it to say it's conscious to see what happens. Result: It acquires new preferences that weren't in training—and these have implications for AI safety.
