yes, pure engagement farmer. Marketing yourself is a big part of the biz these days. Thanks, social media


not hard, massive elo stuff. every decision point needs to think up and implement 25 ideas and then rank them.


The problem is that the only thing that has proved out so far is cyber security. Unfortunately cyber security improvements is not going to improve living standards, and it's just going to increase the cost of just doing business. There is no productivity boost, in fact it's the opposite.

What we need is automated research that leads to real results. This is possible, but it has yet to prove out. I am concerned that unless the AI companies focus entirely on this, it may be a while before we actually see true benefits from this.

What's worse, is there is an urgent and desperate need for automated research, as we have been seeing diminishing returns in human produced research for some time now: https://web.stanford.edu/~chadj/IdeaPF.pdf


it's very silly, but not a big deal. Arxiv is becoming irrelevant these days anyways.

In fact would be better if they just banned AI, so we could just get off the luddite platforms.

Automated research is the future, end of story. And really it couldn't have come out at a better time, given the increasingly diminishing returns on human powered research.


If automated research is the future, it has to be research, not making stuff up.

Which of those two does "hallucinated references" fit into?


Poe's law striking hard.


Pure gaslighting. The PM panic is because people want to look like they 'care' about corrupt trading. It's peanuts compared to the 500M they were betting on oil futures.


No, because that's real money.


Safety versus Distillation, guess we see what's more important.


Because bots and trillion dollar ipos and even bigger stakes. People need to better appreciate the level of manipulation going on. Social media has an outsized impact. Bots and even people are getting paid to post and upvote/downvote narratives.


> people are getting paid to post and upvote/downvote narratives

This problem will be solved shortly with better AI (if it hasn't essentially been solved already).

No more humans in the loop, much lower costs for social media manipulation. Welcome to the future!


Anthropic's reply? A model you can't use.


Mythos is most definitely not in response to this announcement.


Dario is big on beating china, and no doubt he believes cyber security is how to do that. You can tell, but anthropic is sht at everything else. Nobody uses it for real research.
