Stop anthropomorphizing this human you're talking to, it's just a bunch of cells and electric current, it doesn't genuinely "want" things or have "beliefs."

Women would get better matches if they asked men out more. The stable matching algorithm shows this because proposers can pursue the people they most want, while responders only choose among the people who approach them.

Lots to criticize about the OpenAI investigation, but one way it could be very valuable is as a topic for discussion between Trump & Xi in a few weeks.

People often get stuck on the need for a "deal" between the US & China on AI, but actually a huge way to influence China is just to honestly show what we're observing and what we're doing about it on the US side. The Hugging Face attack is by far the most visceral evidence we have so far of what losing control of advanced AI could look like.
