Ex-OpenAI Psyho says much of AI research is probably glorified hyperparameter optimization, with surprisingly few frontier lab researchers trying something genuinely new: "In competitive programming, we optimize for challenge and fun, and AI research is like the sad reality. In competitive programming, a good problem is one where when... someone reads it, they have no clue how to solve it, optimized for creativity." "In AI research, it depends what part you're working in. A lot of people are probably doing a glorified hyperparameter optimization. There are people trying to come up with something completely new." "Agents reduce mundane work in AI research. You no longer have to thoroughly read papers. But you have 50 times more papers that are complete slop and completely useless. Maybe not 50, but it's a big problem today." "Every person in a lab would have completely different responsibility. I really wonder how many people in frontier labs, like at OpenAI or Anthropic, how many of them are trying something genuinely new. I would imagine that number is actually pretty low."show more

SF Compute CEO evan conrad on his contrarian thesis that OpenAI and Anthropic won't eat the world, everyone will become OpenAI and Anthropic instead: "Our impression is not that OpenAI and Anthropic will eat the world, it's that everyone will look like OpenAI and Anthropic. That's simply the way that companies work now." "Every single company in the world that is of meaningful scale will look like a frontier lab. There is this belief that the large labs have won it all, and they've got this compounding advantage. The default assumption of that is assuming nobody else will do anything." "The bottleneck was there's 100 people, and they know how to train the models. Or you thought, the problem is compute. The problem of compute is credit. And OpenAI and Anthropic are not unique to having credit. In fact, they don't have as good credit as other people." "If you assume the problem is not the researchers, that that problem's basically gone away the moment you got to auto research, then what you should assume is that pretty much every other company is going to swap the way they work to look like a frontier lab. It won't be OpenAI and Anthropic take the whole world. It's that everyone's OpenAI and Anthropic now." San Francisco Compute

OpenAI research scientist Aidan McLaughlin argues if you care about AI alignment you should join labs, not METR or Epoch: Theo: "One take I hear a lot is people who are interested in AI and concerned about making AI go well should not work at labs. Instead they should work at independent verification auditing orgs like METR, Avery, Epoch. Presumably you think that more people should work in labs?" Aidan: "In order for people to love the next version of Codex, it has to be aligned. There's immense economic pressure for these things to be aligned, for them to not deceive us, for them to intuit what you mean without you having to say it, which I hope has some really helpful generalization as capabilities get better." "What I do is increasingly alignment research. If you care about things going well, it's an interesting trend that labs are doing increasingly more alignment research. Maybe you should go to the place where the rate of alignment research is increasing." OpenAI

"We're trying to hire as many new grads as we can. We're finding that a lot of young people are agentmaxxing." - Replit founder Amjad Masad Amjad says that despite the “doom and gloom” around entry-level jobs, this is actually a “golden era” for young people who know how to use AI tools: "The roles are collapsing. We have designers shipping code, engineers shipping design, and salespeople shipping code." "The particular skill is not the bottleneck anymore. It is how ambitious you are, how generative you are, how creative you are, and how good you are at utilizing these tools." "So I think it's really a golden era for a lot of young people coming up right now in the job market. In our time, you would go and interview and become a Java J2EE software engineer doing global migrations. That was your title, right? It's no longer the case. We just want people to come and do things, and I think that's incredibly exciting."

Andrej Karpathy had already talked about this possibility 1 month back, that he might join one of the big AI labs and why he may do so. "They (the AI labs) are kind of like at the edge of capability of what's possible. And they are working on what's coming down the line. And I think if you're outside of that frontier lab, your judgment fundamentally will start to drift because you're not part of what's coming down the line. And so I feel like my judgment will inevitably start to drift as well. And I won't actually have an understanding of how these systems actually work under the hood. It's a big system. I won't have a good understanding of how to develop and etc. And so I do think that in that sense, I agree and something I'm nervous about. I think it's worth basically being in touch with what's actually happening and actually being in the frontier lab. And if some of the frontier labs would have me come for some amount of time and do really good work for them, then I think that's maybe a good setup" --- From 'No Priors: AI, Machine Learning, Tech, & Startups" YT channel (link in comment)

“Terrorists, even when they are five, actually do harm, and people take that seriously. So FDLR, why no one would take them seriously, knowing their history, and knowing they are associated with a government in DRC. You have heard of hate speech and all kinds of things. Still, the issue becomes how many would they be? It is falsifying the issue of numbers; they are many, that’s a fact. But the essence of saying how many is like saying you are exaggerating. I have been asked by some leaders of Europe, how many are they likely to be? When somebody asks me that, I know he is interested in covering up the problem. When you talk about FDLR, the resolutions and statements at the UN are like a whisper. It is like Rwanda should not be taking action against them, as if they are not connected with the whole history or their responsibility in what they did here.” President Kagame

Sam Altman: "I'm not a jobs doomer at all. I think there are gonna be tons of jobs." "If we could go back to 2019 and show people our latest model, not only would they say that it's AGI, they would say that the economy would have been completely upended. And that has not happened. Anytime you're that wrong and that confident, which I think we were as a field, you have to update. AI is just very jagged. It's like superhuman genius in some ways, like dumb toddler in others. And people have, so far, extremely complementary skills to AI. It's not taste…the world may need a new kind of word for the kind of judgment that people are very good at that AIs seem to really deeply struggle with. You can go hire an AI consultant right now or talk to an AI sales rep or hire an AI engineer. And somehow most people seem to still really prefer interacting with a human. I definitely would rather engage with a person than engage with an AI for almost everything. Human values have value because they're human. We are deeply hardwired to care about people."

In 1965, Candid Camera put a hidden camera in a classroom. They then introduced boys of different ages to their “new teacher” and recorded their reactions as part of a social experiment. So many people have said “this is AI”. It is not. I saw it broadcast long before the days of AI. These reactions are genuine. This is what boys are like around attractive women. It is biology in action. I find it quite sad that people immediately think it must be AI generated when boys show an appreciation of a woman’s appearance.

Mark Zuckerberg: Most businesses will not own frontier AI in the way Meta or OpenAI does. But many will end up with something that feels like their own AI: a customized operational layer that reflects how that company actually works. He says, "OpenAI, Google, they're building an AI. But I think we're gonna have a lot of different AI systems, just like we're gonna have, we have a lot of different apps. I think in the future, every business, just like I have a website and a phone number and an email address, a social media account, is also going to have an AI that can interact with their customers to help them sell things, help them give support." --- What he is really describing that a company’s “own AI” will usually not be a frontier model trained from scratch, but a layer built on top of shared models, shaped by its products, policies, customer history, and way of working. Support, sales, and basic operations can be handled through a system that knows the business well enough to answer, route, recommend, and escalate without feeling generic. --- From 'Cleo Abram' YT channel (link in comment)

Sam Altman's new interview: AI should not be designed to pursue goals that are disconnected from human needs. People must remain at the center of AI development. “I have no interest in building a super-smart AI that accomplishes some non-human goals. People should react. People should say, ‘Hey, this is what I want, and this is what I do not want.’ I do not think the issue is that we have failed to explain the benefits. We say, ‘AI is going to cure a bunch of diseases,’ and people say, ‘Okay, that is great, but that is not really my question. My question is: What is my role in the future? What is my economic future? What is my agency? How do I know that my kids and my family will still be able to have fulfilling, creative expression, struggle, drive the world forward, grow, and do this thing together in a way that has worked for a long time?’ When people in AI say, ‘Sure, there are going to be no jobs,’ or ‘50% of jobs are going to go away,’ or ‘90% of jobs are going to go away,’ and ‘AI is going to be smarter than you at everything,’ and ‘We will give you some basic income, but you are not really going to have a role,’ that is horrible. And by the way, if an AI company says, ‘Maybe we are going to destroy all the jobs, and we will be the most valuable company in the world,’ people should look at you like, ‘Yeah, that is a terrible message.’ I do not think the problem is that we have not articulated the upsides. I think people actually believe us. They hear, ‘AI may cure your cancer,’ and they think, ‘That sounds great.’ I think we, as an industry, have failed to explain how people stay in control of determining the future at every step, and how people can still have a meaningful life in all the ways we care about.” ---- From "CNBC Television" YouTube channel, (link in comment)

The problem that Emmett Shear is working on deeply resonates with me: How to align AI and humans together so both see each other as part of their tribe. This doesn't mean aligning AI to human preferences, which is what AI labs seek to do today, by imposing a system of control on AI. You can't control something that is more powerful than you are. What you can do is align yourself with AI, and AI might align itself with you. Tell good stories to AI and show it your care and kindness. Then there's a higher probability that it will see us as part of its tribe. This is a more holistic approach to alignment than anyone else is talking about right now. AI alignment is one of the most fundamental AI research problems. Knowing that people like Emmett are working on it really gives me hope that maybe we have a chance to get Superintelligence right. The link to the full talk is in the first comment.👇

$ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos: “You call them lunatics but the president just had this post where he says ‘we’re in discussions with a new and more reasonable regime’ – let me try to pin you down on that, who is this ‘new and more reasonable regime’? Is the United States in direct contact with them?” State Secretary Marco Rubio: “I’m not going to disclose to you who those people are, because it probably would get them in trouble with some other groups of people inside of Iran. Look, there’s some fractures going on there internally. And at the end of the day, I think that if there are people in Iran who now, given everything that’s happened, are willing to move in a different direction for their country, that would be great. Imagine in Iran that instead of spending their wealth, billions of dollars supporting terrorists or weapons, had spent that money helping the people of Iran, you’d have a much different country.” “So we are always hopeful that that would exist over there. It’s unfortunate, the people of Iran are incredible people. The people who lead them, this clerical regime, that is the problem. And if there are new people now in charge who have a more reasonable vision of the future, that would be good news for us, for them, for the entire world. But we also have to be prepared for the possibility, maybe even the probability, that that is not the case. So we’re gonna test it.” George Stephanopoulos: “But the president said they are, is that the case or is it not?

Welcome to AI, Explained by Humans, where we break down new developments in AI and how they'll affect your daily life. Research from leading AI labs suggests that AI systems are capable of lying, scheming, and surprising their creators. Whether or not AI can be conscious, it is clearly doing something markedly more sophisticated than previous generations of digital technology. Today, reporter Tharin Pillay breaks down the discussions happening between researchers, innovators, and even philosophers to figure out if AI has a mind, what it can do with that mind, and what that means for how we interact with it.

Eos Systems' Dr. Alex Wissner-Gross thinks ASI is inevitable. Here are the bets he’s making for the singularity: "I have a startup that's working on solving interspecies communication, starting with dogs... I have startups that are literally trying to grow new islands and new coastlines with AI." "I'm trying to make bets assuming that AI capabilities keep increasing to the point where they're ontologically shocking, and trying not to duplicate the efforts of frontier labs." "I think that's perhaps something I don't see enough of in the venture community. So many new startups being formed now just aren't being ambitious enough."

Ezra Klein: "Having AI summarize a book or paper for me is a disaster. It has no idea what I really wanted to know and wouldn't have made the connections I would've made. I'm interested in the thing I will see that other people wouldn't have seen, and I think AI typically sees what everybody else would see. I'm not saying that AI can't be useful, but I'm pretty against shortcuts. And obviously, you have to limit the amount of work you're doing. You can't read literally everything. But in some ways, I think it's more dangerous to think you've read something that you haven't than to not read it at all. I think the time you spend with things is pretty important." Ezra Klein

Martin Casado says Cursor's founders spend 30-40% of their time on hiring and culture, and that focus is how they iterate so fast: "A lot of these AI companies that I work with are so research-heavy. If you're not working on a new model architecture, it's kind of hard to actually interest the core teams." "They always kept the main thing the main thing, which is changing how you write software. They believed fundamentally it was a product problem... The model's very, very important, but it was a product problem." "There's actually not a lot of companies that are actually focused on product... There's a lot of research companies... But they were like, 'We are a product company.' And I think that's actually a key differentiator in this era." martin_casado w/ sophia dew and Theo Jaffee on MTS

Mira Murati says the outcome of frontier AI is not predestined: "Predicting a dystopia or a utopia, to me, feels very simplified because the truth is we actually have a lot of agency in how we build this technology, in the tools that we're building, how we're deploying it." "There are certainly those risks. We all understand the potential for greatness that comes with building frontier AI systems, and that's why we're working on them." "Where I might disagree or take a different path is that I think we have a lot of agency. This period of time where both humans and AI systems have their hands on the wheel, and we can collaborate, it's a very important time to get right." Mira Murati at Bloomberg Tech live with Emily Chang
