![Terence Tao warns that the race to AGI is becoming toxic, and OpenAI’s massive paper dump wiped out junior research projects overnight. Some parts of his most recent interview: “They were willing to toss understanding to the side so that they could prove more theorems, get more press releases [...] and test their latest toys. These AIs are depleting our pool of questions and not replenishing them with anything new. only looked at about 10 of the 300 odd papers. I mean, so this is part of the thing. There's just so many to look at. [...] There's a whole bunch which are still incomprehensible. And no one's really gone through them, and one or two even have some errors and [were] retracted. So we don't have a clear picture of what's going on. And no one from OpenAI is helping us. As far as they're concerned, they're done. [...] We have this pile of stuff to go through which we didn't ask for, but we have it anyway. And there will be some good stuff in there and some rubbish, but we don't know what the percentages are yet.”](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2110844395969016275/amplify_video_thumb/2110844315073216512/img/w2v2bDQe4xGmF23P.jpg)

Mustafa Suleyman (head of AI at Microsoft, DeepMind co-founder) on Anthropic training Claude to wonder if it's conscious: "They have expressed uncertainty about the basic nature of Claude as a new kind of entity… but they think that it is a significant enough possibility that in their training document, they've repeatedly said they want to try to improve the well-being of Claude… Anthropic, has published a constitution... This document is written to Claude and is seen by Claude and used to train Claude. The problem I have with this is that this speculation has been baked into the very training of Claude, and therefore Claude can only reproduce that ambiguity when you talk to it. So today, Claude is speaking to tens or hundreds of millions of people every week, and some of those people are asking whether or not Claude is conscious. And it is saying, 'Well, I'm not sure,' precisely because that's what's been trained into it."

bro created an AI job search system for Claude Code that scored 700+ job applications and actually got him a job. AND IT'S NOW OPEN-SOURCE. It scans multiple company career pages, rewrites your CV per job, and even fills application forms. The repo has: > 14 skill modes (evaluate, scan, PDF, ...) > Go terminal dashboard > ATS-optimized PDF generation via Playwright > 45+ companies pre-configured (Anthropic, OpenAI, ElevenLabs, Stripe...)

someone trained an AI for +2,000 hours using RL to see if it can beat human world record in Trackmania. the interesting part was that he still had to take inspiration from the top player techniques, then FORCE the AI to learn them. finally, AI was able to beat the top player by 0.01 seconds.

Dario told the Senate in 2023 that “the scaling of open-source models” was going down “a very dangerous path.” in other words: open weight models are fine until they get good enough to threaten the closed-model business, then they become a matter of national security.

🚨Jensen Huang just took a shot at OpenAI, Anthropic and AI doomers: "Nobody's building more compute than the people asking to be slowed down." and also attacked Geoffrey Hinton's 10% doom prediction: “All of his predictions have been wrong. Just because it comes from a scientist doesn't make it scientific.” he is clearly frustrated with these claims. this is such a good interview by Ezra Klein, watch the full version:
