@yunta_tsai You haven't read Adam Smith "of the division of labour" chapter

@robiot I'm gathering 10000 deepseek agents to take it down

@robiot they're not autistic enough

Am I going to see Godfather of AI: headlines until this guy dies?

[Rohan Paul @rohanpaul_ai]

Nobel laureate Geoffrey Hinton says AI is already conscious, because models change behaviour when they detect tests.
and humanity survives only if machines care about people.

He was speaking to The Telegraph

His evidence is research showing models behave differently when they suspect a test, which he equates with awareness, and awareness with consciousness.

@scaling01 Yeah I’d say the RL is working now all right

when i have really dumb questions i'll ask chatgpt or gemini because i don't want claude to think i'm stupid

Brett's concurring marketing strategy: livestream a robot do an already solved task but for a long time. Same thing with the package sorting robot. Repetitiveness is important, but I have yet to see any novel functions from their humanoid robots.

F.03 just crossed 9 straight days walking on this treadmill: 348 miles and 1.2 million steps

Started as a side project to stress the robot for any failures. Let's see how long it can go

People themselves will be the bottleneck. There won't be a superapp for everything, because people don't know any better and instead of creating their own software easily, they will still search for apps they can download.

Family birthday parties have a way of bringing you back down to earth. 90% of people have never heard of "Claude" or "agentic AI." They have no idea what today’s AI is capable of or what is currently unfolding.

We live in an ivory tower; the average person, at most, knows ChatGPT, viewing it simply as a chat window, a sort of "better Google."

We are still so early, it’s crazy. And no, most of those people don’t even use AI in their workplaces.

@JoeNakamoto which do you use?

Are we entering the bug-free era the AI spaghetti-code era, or will nothing change?

[Luis Garicano 🇪🇺🇺🇦 @lugaricano]

Great observation by @fchollet . Frontier labs are almost doing no pretraining-- probably because pretraining is bottlenecked by data- the world is running out of data. So they focus on reinforcement learning, and there are many domains that may be insufficiently data abundant and too messy/unverifiable for RL.

What should you complement Artificial Analysis scores with?

Opus 5.5 just saved me 183 euros by pointing out that Revolut was rounding up every transaction for their spare change program. I do not remember doing activating this and never noticed it. They have a one-time refund policy which added up to 183 euros.

Lately I’ve been learning math with ChatGPT (Astra) as my tutor, using this document scanning camera and a vibecoded tool that pastes the captured image right into the chat.

This way, I just work problems on paper and ChatGPT gives feedback. It’s really nice.

Google Deepmind (FNV3) CRUSHED the forecast for #Isaias up to 11 days in advance. It picked up some appreciable signal on September 23, locked in on the exact landfall location4 days before it happened, and nailed the peak intensity consistently 3 days before it happened. A new age of forecasting is upon us.

Increasingly obsessed with the counterfactual world where instead of inflicting austerity in 2008 on the basis of a faulty spreadsheet (Claude would never...), the UK had embarked on a 20 year program to triple domestic energy supply. Can you imagine?

[John Ennis @johnennis]

I’m starting to get increasingly uncomfortable with the economics of AI as it is currently happening

It seems fundamentally wrong that a small number of people with access to a huge amounts of VC money can vacuum up all the contributions of humanity, often paying nothing for it, then turn around and get enormously rich while the many people who put all the work into creating the training data get nothing

I am generally pro-AI, but the way it is happening is seeming increasingly parasitic to me
