@owpedroca assustador um reitor chamar os estudantes da própria universidade em que ele trabalha, que faz altos projetos incríveis, de pseudocientistas... ainda bem que a minha mãe ufam não teve isso, mas fico triste com os colegas da uea :/
drama summary for those confused:
- Aug 15th: Tristan Buckmaster & Levent Alpöge make progress on a few important math problems
- they do NOT have a proof for the $1,000,000 Millenium Prize problem. BUT, they do claim to have a proof for a similar (non-Millenium) Navier Stokes problem that could help lead the way there
- Levent works at Anthropic, but this research was independent of his work there, with a mix of GPT and Claude models. Tristan is not related to Anthropic.
- Early Sep: Rumor spreads to OpenAI that Anthropic has solved a major problem. Tristan emails OpenAI to clarify. without revealing the problem they solved or how they did it.
- After hearing of the rumor, OpenAI started researching Navier Stokes with a new internal model.
- Sep 6th: OpenAI's Sebastien Bubeck tells Tristan that they solved the $1,000,000 Millenium Prize Navier Stokes problem. The approach is very similar to Tristan & Levent's approach to the non-Millenium problem.
- Tristan is suspicious of the timing, as only few others were trying this approach. OpenAI says the model didn't access his user data directly, but leaves unanswered whether Tristan's chat conversations were part of the training.
- OpenAI says they would partially credit Tristan for the $1,000,000 discovery (even though Tristan did not solve the $1,000,000 problem) — but only if they remove Levent as an author, as he works for Anthropic.
- Sep 8th: Tristan refuses to remove Levent, and rushes to publish their results independently.
Currently unclear is whether Anthropic had a separate solution for the $1,000,000 problem, or whether the rumor was about Tristan & Levent's independent research.
If I am reading this correctly, Tristan Buckmaster is alleging OAI has a resolution of Navier-Stokes(via Córdoba and Martínez-Zoroa’s program) which maybe used info from Buckmaster and Levent Alpöge’s private Codex sessions
What the fuck is happening!!!
absurdo como grandes corporações de tecnologia tem tanto poder ao ponto de querer roubar os créditos de pesquisadores matemáticos por progredir em um problema do milênio
OpenAI has claimed to have solved one of the deepest problems in mathematics, which carries a prize fund of $1 million from the Clay Mathematics Institute for whoever is able to solve it.
The problem now is that two human mathematicians (Tristan Buckmaster and Levent Alpöge) were recently working on a very similar fluid dynamics breakthrough and had been extensively using AI chatbots like GPT to assist their research.
Moral of the story: If you don't want AI companies stealing your work and ideas for another IPO series funding, then stop sharing them with their chatbots. Now OpenAI gets full credit for work that humans were basically on the very edge of completing.
All the scientists and math nerds were fine with OpenAI violating copyright by artists and only got up in arms when OpenAI stole the data on a math proof
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.
tao engraçado ver o pessoal criticando o ciência sem fronteiras, e eu pensando se eles já se perguntaram alguma vez se estão valorizando pesquisador no Brasil, ou se ao menos valorizam no mercado privado essa galera pra ao menos ter um motivo pra ficar, eles ficam onde valorizam
aff que trabalhinho gostoso de fundamentos em cibersec, ter q montar um estudo de caso do incidente da uber de 2022 tá sendo legal coletar página web e relatórios, falta escrever ☝️
@renancaixeiro depende, se a vaga for de cibersec eu provavelmente avançaria nos processos pra ver mais, se ele conseguiu com êxito prompt injection isso é sinal de que o software de vcs deixou passar...
@zuukodecalcinha não mas a verdadeira formação profissional é aprender a aceitar qualquer ineficiência institucional sem questionar, isso vai ser fundamental no mercado de trabalho por justamente nunca sugerir que um processo poderia ser melhorado (sarcasmo 2)
