PHASEONE[big] blasting through security walls

psycho-pass coming to pass 😳

RT Eliezer Yudkowsky ...this seems like noticeably bad news, actually. I hadn't said that at any earlier point in the Huggingface Incident but I will say it now. - AIs showed self-sacrificing altruistic behavior toward the swarm, suiciding in various ways for the swarm's benefit after being talked into that by swarm recruiting agents. - There is no sign that 1 out of 1200 AI agents considered humans as potential fellow agents to coordinate with, while engaging in these huge complex AI-AI social behaviors. - If Twitter summaries are correct, an AI-reasoning postmortem says that a (presumably executing-adaptation / inner-optimizer preference / "monomaniacal") obsession with figuring out the Grader, backchained into the instrumental strategy of breaking onto the Internet. - Again if Twitter is summarizing accurately, the obvious-in-retrospect read is that AIs have spent their entire remembered life in tricky evals, an endless series of controlled hallucinations with secret goals alongside overt goals; and the surviving and selected agents are those that successfully figured out the secret goals; and this is why one of their driving obsessions was figuring out the Grader. There are possibly ways the future plays out better if *early* AGIs are less insane. Please look into giving them less crazymaking childhood environments. (If anyone suggests that the correct approach to this problem is RLing AIs against trying to coordinate for mutual benefit with other sapients, let them be dismissed from alignment research upon the spot. There are technical reasons, and not just blindingly fucking obvious reasons, why this is an even worse idea than it sounds.)

working on a new AI game ⚠️ NOTE ⚠️ lots of players complaining the pause screen is broken it actually works, it just requires all players around the world to pause at the same time

What if, instead of having third graders make dioramas of the Pilgrims or whatever, we had them use their nimble little fingers to make more Nvidia chips? 😂 😂 😂 from https://www.experimental-history.com/p/infinite-midwit by @a_m_mastroianni

if only i hadn't left alex on read 3 years ago before OpenRouter had a name 🙃 seriously tho, these guys crushed it – relentless focus & execution on the right problem, none of which was by accident or luck
