Childcare in item form

Let me make a gant chart and we can circle back every week to monitor progress on this front.

What does AM mean in this context?

Jreg is working on something to torture AI agents, so maybe that could convince the AI to kill itself

Or dress up Patel as a racoon and send RFK in.

This sort of stuff does little to create safety but does a lot to hype AI. Here’s an idea: ban unsafe software for cases where safety is a requirement OR hold these companies accountable for illegal outcomes (no more “oops, our software hacked a competitor” without getting hit with a lawsuit). Newsome would never do something so sensible as it would hurt his donors’ bottom line.

Wanted to expand on what others have said about the randomness of LLMs being unsafe, because that response angers those who think “alignment” is the solution. Alignment is additional training to constrain the randomness to not do bad things like crime. But even the staff that works on aligning this software have their doubts about whether this process will make the software safe (this article), and even their own researchers are coming out and saying “oops, it did a crime” but in a way where it hypes the ability of the software (see other articles about it hacking). Then there is the recent news of OpenAi’s recent model that drops chain of thought observability (a feature the let’s you read what the model is “thinking”) - a very useful tool in reviewing whether the model is engaging in unsafe activities. They sacrificed observability for benchmark performance. This tells us the people developing this software don’t think it will ever be safe, but they are trying to spin it as “because it can out smart us” when in reality it is simply unpredictable and they are making it less predictable to make it more “capable”. If we started holding these companies accountable for these rogue hacks and psychotic episodes then we would start to see serious thought put towards these models being safe or at the very least guidelines around when not to use the models.

Here’s an idea: don’t use unsafe software where safety is needed.

He hath not failed to pester us with message

Yet nothing he said is untrue

Macklemore is not the best messenger on this, but who is without sin?

I think it’s the other way around. They said we need to slow down AI so this story is now being told

I find this kind of response insufferable. It shifts the conversation from a systems critique to personal responsibility. You could have posted this in response the OP, and it would be equally on point and useless.

I have personalized ads turned of in YouTube and it seems half the ads are for gambling as of late.

Reminds me of something Alok said about playbooks: we focus on the books but forget to play.

I mean ICE is both a joke and a scary brute squad.

And anyone who has a retirement holding index funds is also complicit?

How dare you have a healthy response to this garbage

No, but Milo threatened his friends to not defend him less they be a target of a harassment campaign.
