Would love to know on what terms he left Anthropic?…

Every exponential growth is rate limited by resources, the things that feed it. Compute / energy / water / data are the obvious rate limiters for AI. When will these limiters kick in - if this bear view of AI is true?…

[Jacob Coxon @hilbertspaess]

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

Pretty incredible #GenAI impact taken from @bp_plc quarterly earnings call 🤯

Is it me or does “my x anniversary” conjure another meaning?

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary

@benedictevans Human language is subjective and unclear though. You have to be very explicit to get the output you want

@singularityu A voice assistant that can understand which song you’re requesting within three requests

@benedictevans Or build something first, then market it, not the other way round? The approach of ultra-marketing died with Watson Health

[Alistair Stuart @AstutePharma]

@benedictevans But also with mobile.. you can do all the useful things that you do on your PC anywhere.
VR headsets are definitely a step down in convenience currently compared to mobile - bulkier to carry and more cumbersome to use

Hmmm it’s always the #edgeusecases that cause the problems. 🎢

[Joanna Stern @JoannaStern]

Since the iPhone 14 went on sale, the 911 dispatch center near Kings Island amusement park has received at least six phones calls saying:

“The owner of this iPhone was in a severe car crash...”

Except, the owner was just on a roller coaster.

Wow, a moment as significant as mapping the human genome at the turn of the century? How is our understanding of the shape of the entire proteome going to unlock therapies for #patients #datascience #machinelearning

[Google DeepMind @GoogleDeepMind]

Today in partnership with @emblebi, we’re releasing predicted structures for nearly all catalogued proteins known to science, which will expand the #AlphaFold database by over 200x - from nearly 1 million to 200+ million structures: https://t.co/GjVES2pBFY 1/

@drrichjlaw @ideapharma Trends in cost base and productivity are very scary for Pharma - the platform is burning… but the “why” piece is often missing - no point spraying AI spaghetti at the problem!

[Alistair Stuart @AstutePharma]

@emollick So they can now embark on some research to discover and optimise effective antidotes for these agents at least?

[Alistair Stuart @AstutePharma]

Very excited about my new role at @faculty_ai – incredible 🤯 work with the #NHS on early warning systems for COVID19. Now we’re looking to unlock potential across #medicines research, trials, manufacture and commercial to help bring new treatments to patients  💪🤖📈🦠

[Alistair Stuart @AstutePharma]

Another step on the journey to #DataScience becoming business as usual across #pharma with this news from @BayerPharma about their Calantic platform to support radiologists

[Alistair Stuart @AstutePharma]

Why isn’t clinical research “digital” yet? https://t.co/9BnPspvBSm #Uncategorised
