this is like the fourth time an AI agent has completely deleted something important (I remember an article about an AI deleting all of a scientists’s research) How many more times does it have to happen before people stop using AI to look after something important???

sharing this channel’s posts are the equivalent of shooting fish in a barrel but http://youtube.com/post/UgkxoSpDpLNEr9WawVXnl5Mlw4NeQ6-XsLjl this really just feels like an excuse to repost that METR graph. also wtf is the graph on top

it’s always the Elon Musk fans isnt it.

and on the topic of Futurism articles on Elon Musk: https://futurism.com/future-society/court-trouble-jury-hates-elon-musk

one word: LMFAOOOO

oh yeah I 100% agree that their methodology is flawed, and that blog does a pretty good job of outlining the issues. I just thought the absolutely huge gap was both interesting and funny. Their absolutely huge error bars are not a good sign, between that and the gap it really feels like someone screwed up

the metr graph has gotten weird https://metr.org/blog/2025-03-19-measuring-ai-ability-to-complete-long-tasks/ the 50% success rate graph went from 6 hours to 14 hours, but the 80% success rate graph only went from 55 minutes to 1 hour and 3 minutes. I have an itch that it’s a fluke or outlier but it’s also very possible that LLM coding’s just weird like that

the AI safety crowd cuts Anthropic way too much slack. Oh, they’re not running CSAM-generating MechaHitler? Oh, they’re not collaborating with the US government to recreate 1984? I’m so proud of them for doing the bare minimum. They still took donations from the UAE and Qatar (something Dario Amodei himself admitted was going to hurt a lot of people, but he took the donations anyways because “they couldn’t miss out on all those valuations”), they still downloaded hundreds of pirated content to train their chatbot. They’re still doing shady shit, don’t let them off the hook because they’re slightly less evil than the competition

Update: the screenshot is unfortunately not LLM generated, found the full version on Reddit SneerClub https://web4.ai/

New “AI is not a bubble” video just dropped https://youtu.be/wDBy2bUICQY a lot of skeptical comments pointing out the flaws in this argument while the creator tries to defend themselves with mostly mediocre lines

HOLY SHIT LMFAOOOOO

behold, ruthless goal-seeking behaviour

huh, you’re right. usually this channel provides a source for the things they share, but this time there’s nothing.

the full paper is here: https://x.com/alexwg/status/2022292731649777723 immediately two references to Nick Bostrom and Scott Alexander

can’t believe scammers are loosing their jobs to AI

Im pretty sure most of this has already been posted to this thread (I know the “AI published a hit piece on me” thing was)but more Moltbook/Openclaw/whatever-it’s-called nonsense

this article that tries to argue that we have managed to achieve AGI already is a real hoot

holy fuck I actually just burst out laughing at this

also this video by 80,000 Hours on timeline increases in 2025 https://youtu.be/YeRS4TbtZWA

new interview with Dario Amodei dropped https://youtu.be/n1E9IZfvGMA basically exponential curve real soon, nice skepticism from both the interviewer and the comment section

On a related note, I really gotta stop browsing r/singularity man, some of the AI hype in there is just painful. though it is funny to see people with “AGI 2024/2025/2026” flairs

EDIT: this is also the same podcast where Dario said we could have AGI in 2-3 years back in 2023. So lol

completely unsurprised, cant wait to see what shitshow this produces
