i believe the human being and shellfish can coexist peacefully


Spongebob memes and weak analogies are not changing the fact that you can barely call LLMs intelligent. We just make the error that we think that semantic processing is the same as intelligence. It isn't, we humans use intelligence to make semantic analysis. A -> B ≠ B -> A. Give an LLM knowledge up until 1905 and then try getting out the theory of relativity, you won't. I use LLMs for 100% of what I do and AI is my favorite topic for 18 years at this point. While I think they can take over human tasks in a broad range of fields, they cannot replace even the simplest human mind, especially reliably. They lack any true understanding of the domain they work in, that is why you don't get proper long-running agents even with models like Fable, as impressive as they are. If you want to understand where I am coming from, I put together a small page that explains that in more detail. ao.leadbase.dev

I talked to someone at one of the labs and their theory is that Dario’s messaging is exclusively for the AI researchers “He doesn’t care about public sentiment because it doesn’t matter His only goal is to say things the best ML researchers in the world find appealing, because if enough of those work for him he just wins by default. Claude will figure out how to train him in politics afterward”

@beffjezos there was never ever ever going to be an un-nationalized intelligence explosion. either ASI is controlled by the state or it becomes the state. so fuck yeah i prefer it happens when someone sane is in power


A few thoughts on the recent Mythos brouhaha: marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolu…

If this is true, it is just baffling. An administration whose posture is that we *should* export advanced AI chips to China, which also wants to ban… Britain (and every other non-American on Earth)… from using our best models? I have no words.
