@dollarsanddata @robkhenderson Yes it was. Do you think those competing for upper middle class resources aware of this trend? That they’re competing in status games? It is something that I’ve noticed for a while (eg private school fees, designer clothes shooting up?) Or do tnot care and compete anyway?

“America’s middle class is becoming wealthier as more families scale the economic ladder into higher-earning groups…the ranks of the affluent have grown markedly…In 2024, 31% of Americans were part of the upper middle class, up from about 10% in 1979” wsj.com/economy/more-a…

@fchollet I don´t have skin in the game here: I'm no longer with Meta and I famously don't do LLMs. But I'd say your long-held anti-Meta bias is showing.

The new model from Meta is already looking like a disappointment: overoptimized for public benchmark numbers at the detriment of everything else. Knowing how to evaluate models in a way that correlates with actual usefulness is a core competency for AI labs, and any new lab is unlikely to be successful without first figuring that out.

It’s hard to understand why someone would choose to be obviously immoral. But when you understand they don’t see themselves that way, everything makes sense again.

People are hard to understand when you don’t know what motivates them. Once you learn what motivates a person - you can fairly accurately predict their behaviors.

Well that’s a mindfuck: A larger share of Dutch graduates have debt than Americans and with a higher average amount #title-7cc0a0903e" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">oecd.org/en/publication…

Kevin A. Bryan@Afinetheorem

Interesting fact: avg debt at graduation is higher in Denmark, Norway, UK, Finland, Australia, Netherlands than the US, almost identical in Canada. Some differences in income based repayment but...US university debt is dominated by "low value Masters" + dropouts. 1/2

Ramit Sethi@ramit·
People consider their HOUSE more intimate than their finances — specifically their refrigerator & closet In America, these are some of the most intimate spaces, often more than the bedroom. Showing what we eat & wear reveals, in part, an unpolished look into our social class

I talk to couples on my podcast who share every piece of their finances: Income, debt, where they spend, even the fact that 50% don’t know their own household income But for Americans, there’s something even more intimate than revealing their finances. Can you guess what it is?

FRANÇOIS CHOLLET: AGI BY 2030. "RIDE THE WAVE." 🚨 The creator of the ARC benchmark just laid out his exact timeline for AGI, I had also asked franços a few months ago “what arc will we reach AGI” and he had replied 6-7. Glad he’s still sticking to that prediction. Timeline: François predicts AGI is coming around 2030, which will perfectly align with the release of ARC-6 or ARC-7.

@gazorp5 Surely their usage will get revoked as they’re competitors to Anthropic, just like what happened to OAI and XAI?

DeepMind is quietly rolling out Claude internally to its engineers and scientists to increase productivity, because the quality of Gemini is severely lacking.

@Mjreard What are the main achievements of EA? Their work isn’t very visible to the point that the public attaches it to SBF unfortunately

Embarrassing for CAIS. - Many of their employees were recently CG funded - They cite CG funded work all the time - They know that EA beyond (and within) CG-funded work is a loose affiliation with many perspectives on AI that includes their own
Center for AI Safety@CAIS

To clarify, the Center for AI Safety has not taken funding from Coefficient Giving / Open Philanthropy for years. We believe the effective altruism movement is, unfortunately, controlled opposition. The less influence it has on AI safety, the better.

Aria Schrecker@Aria_Babu·
Most women underrate how much men care about looks. And when they do try to get more attractive they waste time and effort on tanning, contouring their face, getting their nails done. Instead, almost everyone could be considered attractive if they lost weight, grew their hair long, and cleared up their skin. All these things are within your control. There's other basic advice that should be obvious. Wear makeup everyday and go for a youthful, dewy look. Remove your body hair. Ditch your glasses. For the extreme looksmaxxers, focus on your body. Your face is probably fine and hard to change. Get a boob job, precisely control your weight, and do hourglass-enhancing exercises. You are no longer stuck with the looks God gave you. ariababu.co.uk/p/get-sexier
