To you, it might just be another day at work. To the person you're talking to, it might be a turning point in life.
Show everyone some love.

@stochasticchasm @soldni Perhaps it's an effort to prevent overly long thinking traces in the early stages of RL. No one likes a model that thinks too long.

@dylan_cruse @RaminNasibov Ooo, I totally forgot about this one. Great memories!!

@RaminNasibov Ultima 7 Part 2: Serpent Isle

Shaped by thinking of morals and "balance".

@basedjensen Lol. I was always a fan of the Hongdae ladies when I lived there. 😋

@GBarataria @inductionheads It's true that we don't know how to "build a brain" architecture. Evolution has done a phenomenal job of that over hundreds of millions of years.
I don't believe AI is "real" like biological intelligence is. But I'm starting to doubt how "real" our own concepts are.

@nrehiew_ I hand-review 50x the amount I used to.
That's gotta count for something.

@Pontifex @JuniperFolly Anthropic PMs making notes and then conferring quietly together. Thank you for your feedback, we can ship all of this by the end of Q4

@CiprianoAS Looked more like they had a 5 yr old draw it!
(no offense to 5 yr olds...)

Driving on a back country road in the middle of nowhere Pennsylvania and just passed two "No Datacenter" signs in 2 different yards.
Not a good sign.

We went from this pic to "flying 17 hrs to meet the parents" in like 2 days.
What exactly did Bryan see in there?!?

[Bryan Johnson @bryan_johnson]

I’m meeting Kate’s parents for the first time.

Do you think they’ll like me?

I’m flying 17 hrs. She’s from Australia and international travel increases aging. But I really love her so it’s worth the cost.

[Ed Sealing @EdSealing]

@basedjensen You and me both, brother. This is from 2 weeks ago (function health). My father had his first of four heart attacks at 50, and his father died of the same at a young age.
It'll be nice if we can just "fix" this.

[Ed Sealing @EdSealing]

@beffjezos Meet someone at a beer the other day. I mentioned AI and she immediately got madder and said "don't get me started. It's taking so many jobs. They need to ban it". 😲
Jaw dropped. She wasn't in the IT field. The resentment is very real out there.

Every person's life is a long-running RL rollout contributing a little signal towards the collective intelligence.
Like little RL jobs inside each rollout for a larger RL.

@tekbog Curious what the self-help mangas are like.

[Ed Sealing @EdSealing]

One of the reasons I've been married for 16 years is that my wife listens to me ramble on about tech (AI for last 4 years), and I listen to her ramble about family, friends, and her latest book.
Like really, actively listen and learn. She knows way more about AI at this point than most Comp Sci folks. And I get to act like I'm keeping up with our family and friends when I'm around them. 🥰

This line rings true as well:
"By design, content platform algorithmic feeds leverage polarization over policy and rage over reason as a means of keeping users online and active in their sites or apps."

[Ed Sealing @EdSealing]

I don't get into national politics, but couldn't pass up reading the DNC "autopsy" on the 2024 election. Honestly, it's pretty terrible. Riddled with inaccurate information and foot notes on every page saying "this is not accurate data contradicts claim".

But found this nugget. This is what every national party needs to understand. It's no about race, gender, religion, identity, etc. In the end, it's not the "far-right" or "far-left" that make the decision at the national level. it's the moderate voters. And they make the decision on an individual level. If you want to win, put up a good candidate (or at least one better than the other side does). Period.
